Acupressure Mats

Acupressure Mats are very popular because a lot of people find that the use of acupressure mats provides relief from stress, aches, and pains. Using a pattern of spiked discs attached to a natural cotton mat, the acupressure mat stimulates the body’s acupressure points.

Some reported benefits of using an acupressure mat include:

Better night’s sleep,
Relief of stress,
Back pain relief,
Increased energy,

Acupressure is a healing art form that has been used for over 5,000 years in eastern medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine describes 365 acupressure points along the twelve meridians of the body. The pressure points in the body are along “meridians”, or channels throughout the body, through which the energy (Chinese concept of "Qi" or Chi) or "life-force" flows. The pressure points can be activated by either acupuncture, which utilizes needles, or through acupressure.

Acupressure Mats use the principles of acupressure to help effectively relief back pain, stress, muscle tension and promote an increase in blood circulation.

A simple,effective,and affordable method of using acupressure is with an acupressure mat. The acupressure mat is about 2x3 feet in size, has 8,820 contact points on it that apply pressure along the body. Simply lie down on the mat for 20 minutes or more each day. These spikes on the mat stimulate various pressure points to help provide relief.

Acupressure Pillows Are Effective Pain Reliever Says Dr. Oz On The Dr. Oz Show

2012-02-14T23:04:00.001-08:00

Acupressure Pillows Reviewed On The Dr. Oz Show As Effective Pain Relievers!

On the Dr. Oz Show This week, Dr. Oz reviews acupressure pillows for effective natural pain relief. According to Dr. Oz, the acupressure pillow changes the way your nerves react. Christina, a participant on the Dr. Oz Show Christina tried the acupressure pillow and said it was comfortable and that “this was one product I could use.”

The acupressure pillows work by using the principles of acupressure to stimulate nerves, acupressure points, muscles, and the skin in your neck and lower head area. This stimulation causes your body to release the body’s own pain-relieving hormones – endorphins and oxytocin, while increasing blood circulation and oxygen to your neck and head. This in turn results in the relaxation of the muscles in your neck and head, and a re-balancing of the nerves and body.

Here at Acupressuremats.net, of the various styles of acupressure pillows tested, we have found the Heavenly acupressure pillows, which are ergonomically designed for maximum effect and comfort, to be our favorite. The spikes on the Heavenly acupressure pillow are placed where they will stimulate the right pressure points for the most effective relief.

The Heavenly acupressure pillows are very easy to use. Just lie down and gently place the acupressure pillow under your neck with the points directly on your bare skin. It usually takes around 5 minutes to get used to the initial sensation which is followed by a pleasant warm sensation, and sweet, deep relaxation. Use the acupressure pillows for twenty (20) minutes or more for best effects.

The Heavenly acupressure pillows work great for natural pain relief and is used successfully by people with chronic neck pain, muscle tension, headaches, migraines, and insomnia.

For a full upper body experience, use the Heavenly acupressure pillows in combination with the Heavenly acupressure mats! The success stories are great and so are the results!!!!

Acupressure pillows are also know by different names including bed of nails, acu-pillows, halsa, shakti, yantra, nayoya, swedish acupressure pillows.

Acupressure mats are becoming all the rage these days.

There are multiple brands out there including the Heavenly acupressure mats, Shakti, Yantra, Himalaya, Spoonk Space (go figure how that name was chosen), Halsa, Pranamat Eco, and the Heavenly. Heavenly, now that is a name we can relate to :)

Now there are accessories being added to the acupressure mats. The main accessory to the acupressure mats is the acupressure pillows. We have looked at 3 different styles of pillow.

The one we liked the best was the ergonomically shaped pillow that fits very comfortably under the neck and head. The spikes are placed where they have maximum impact and stimulate the skin and acupressure points on the neck and lower section of the head.

We really liked this because now we do not need to roll up towels to go under the acupressure mat when we want to treat our necks. Very convenient and easy we now use the acupressure mat and the acupressure pillow together for a full and complete upper body treatment. We love the acupressure pillows!

Acupressure Mats And Weight Loss

2011-07-11T23:42:00.000-07:00

The Heavenly Acupressure Mats can help you lose weight and keep it off.

Life can be stressful. Stress can come from many sources including work, money, health, family, relationships, the economy, or the environment. What you might not know is that stress produces body fat!

An article in the magazine Yoga Journal states that “people under chronic stress secrete hormones that cause their bodies to sock away fat around their bellies.” and that, “Unlike fat that lands on thighs and buttocks, abdominal fat is irrevocably linked to stress.” Levels of the hormone cortisol rise in people who experience stress, and when that stress is experienced for prolonged periods of time, the cortisol levels stay high. Increased cortisol levels stimulate eating and also efficiently convert any additional calories to fat.

High levels of stress commonly trigger pacifying behaviors and or cravings for comforting substances which are usually high-fat, high-sugar,and high-calorie foods such as cookies, ice cream, cakes, and alchohol.

So stress-related weight gain can be stopped and reversed by reducing the stress in your life. There have been many studies that show the benefits and effectiveness of yoga, meditation, exercise, massage, acupuncture, acupressure mats, and other techniques and tools for reducing stress.

Recently Dr. Oz who has the Dr. Oz TV Show listed the acupressure mat as one of his three "must haves" for weight loss. He went on to explain that one can also use tools such as the acupressure mat to help with natural weight loss simply by lying on the acupressure mat for 20 minutes or more each day. The acupressure mat stimulates the release of endorphins and other chemicals in your body that result in a reduction of cortisol while increasing calmness and relaxation. Using an acupressure mat also increases your body's metabolism which helps with digestion. Use of an acupressure mat is effective, affordable and easy.

According to Judith Lasater, the author of Relax and Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times, writes, “The antidote to stress is relaxation. To relax is to rest deeply. Relaxation is a state in which there is no movement, no effort, and the brain is quiet.” This relaxation is different from sleep, and from watching TV, which engage muscular tension and brain wave activity.

With the help of an acupressure mat, physical exercise, and relaxation techniques, you can not only stop weight gain, but also lose weight.

Stress relief and feelings of well-being fostered by a regular use on an acupressure mat, and physical exercise such as yoga, serve to re-balance the nervous system.

2011-05-01T03:32:00.000-07:00

Natural Back Pain Relief With An Acupressure Mat

About 1 in 3 Americans suffer from back pain, and other muscular aches and pains. Many have found that acupressure is a way to reduce their back pain naturally. Acupressure is an ancient form of healing that utilizes pressure, applied to certain key points on the body. Applying pressure to these key points, also known as acupressure points, helps stimulate the body’s own ability to cure itself. Using an acupressure mat to stimulate acupressure points in the body can help:

1. Relieve muscle tension resulting in less pain.
2. Promotes better blood circulation.
3. Relieves stress. Lower stress equals lower tension, which in turn equals less pain.
4. Promotes better sleep.
