This acupuncture style acupressure mat and pillow set will help you find the joy in a little bit of pain! This one will hurt so good while also providing some restorative benefits without the cost of a doctors visit. Thousands of pressure point nodes increase circulation and blood flow, helping to aid in back and neck pain relief, relaxation, easing stress and reducing tension and inflammation throughout the body. By applying pressure on the mat and pillow, a series of small points work to simulate acupuncture style therapy - when pressure points in the body are stimulated, blood flows to that area to promote pain relief, healing and relaxation. Start by applying light pressure on the mat against a chair or couch for 10-15 minutes, while intermediate and advanced users should apply direct pressure by laying on the mat and pillow shirtless for 15-30 minutes a day.
