Could seem like an odd gift but the Yantra Spike Mat is not only just for yoga or acupressure enthusisats-anyone can use the mat. It’s great for relieving stress, anxiety, back pain, headaches, insomnia, fatigue and much more.  The 8,820 acupressure points provoke the kind of clarity and focus that usually comes with prolonged meditation or intense physical activity. 

Improved circulation means lower blood pressure and better nutrient delivery. Acupressure induces the release of endorphins and oxytocin, the body’s own pain relieving and happiness hormones, and there is some evidence that it increases metabolism as well!  The healing art of acupressure has its roots in traditional Chinese medicine. Scriptures written over 4,000 years ago describe “nail beds” that were used to heal the body and mind. 

It is pretty intense when you first lay down, but within minutes and some deep breathing you will feel this wonderful warmth and relaxation in your back and butt due to the increased circulation.

Personally, I love absolutely love the Yantra Spike Mat and fall asleep on it all the time!
