What makes premium, premium?
ALL-NEW BLISSFOAM™
Soft enough to sink into. Firm enough to push back. Perfect for getting each spike into deep tension. In the Mat it’s organic, spongey, soft and breathable for laying on. In the Pillow, it’s shredded for unmatched plushness and mouldability.
FINELY FINISHED OUTER DESIGN
A stronger, yet softer, organic cotton outer is completed with rounded piped edges, and a discreet YKK® zipper closure. Responsibly dyed, GOTS-certified and hand stitched.
PRECISION-ENGINEERED SPIKES
The sharper the better, and regardless of which intensity you choose: ours are the sharpest around. They nestle into tension and activate your acupoints instantly. Anything less and you’re wasting your time.

The most popular way to Shakti is in bed, before sleep. Lie down with the Mat under your back and shoulders, and use the Pillow as an extension that targets your neck for even more relaxation from your downtime.
To make it easy you’ll receive access to the world’s only acupressure mat app with purchase, unlocking the ability to double your Shakti benefits in minutes.
Pro tips
Mat
• Combining your Shakti Mat with yoga and meditation – either seated or through poses like sphinx and pigeon – incorporates acupressure into your recovery or wellbeing routine.
Pillow
• When you place it under your head, neck and shoulders, it disperses pressure avoiding any pinch points. Your shoulders and neck experience a deep release that transitions up toward the top of your skull.
• Its shape is also perfect for releasing tension in hard-to-reach curves, and you can rest your face against the spikes for a subtle sensation. -
Will it hurt? Yes. But only for a little in the beginning.
Each spike responds to tension in your body, so more tension = more sensation. The initial “Ouch!” you feel activates your body’s pain response and tells it to send happiness hormones and pain-relief chemicals to the area you’re targeting. If those spikes aren’t sharp enough – or you’re beyond relaxed already – you won’t feel much.
After a few minutes, the tingling sensation fades into a deep, relaxing warmth. The redness is purely a circulation boost. You might even fall asleep. -
There are two things to consider when looking at intensities:
1. Acupressure is personal
2. Shakti spikes are much sharper than anything else out there.Like the firmness of a mattress or the pressure of a massage – acupressure is the opposite of ‘one size fits all’. If you go too far in the beginning you’re less likely to build a solid habit. It’s why we offer three intensities that all unlock the benefits of acupressure.
Level 1
Lying on spikes is weird, so we made sure this is the perfect place to start. Expect a balance of initial discomfort and deep release. Ideal for anyone new to acupressure.Level 2
For the bold and brave. Fewer spikes = more discomfort, so commit to pushing through to unlock the deeper release on the other side if you are contemplating Level 2.Level 3
Our deepest release isn’t the last stop on your journey – it’s only for the most experienced. Expect a serious sensation to start, with plenty of reward if you can handle it. -
Premium Mats and Pillows feature:
• Precision-engineered spikes (our most effective yet)
• Discreet YKK® zippers (as opposed to self-fastening closures)
• Softer, yet stronger, organic cotton outers (a cut above our standard weave)
Classic Mats and Pillows feature:
• Signature spikes (the ones that put us on the map)
• Self-fastening closures
• Durable organic cotton outers
All Shakti Mats, and Classic Shakti Pillows, are made with organic Blissfoam™ inners. They’re soft enough to sink into, firm enough to push back, and perfect for moulding each spike into deep tension.
Premium Pillows are filled with shredded Blissfoam™ for unmatched plushness and mouldability. They can be shaped to target tension with pinpoint accuracy throughout your body. The half-moon shape of Classic Pillows is best suited for achy necks and tight arches. -
Where acupuncture uses needles to pierce the skin, acupressure uses spikes to press against it. The key difference with a Shakti Mat is that you can activate multiple acupoints in as many seconds as it takes to lie on them, and you don’t need to book an appointment either.
