What does the Shakti Mat feel like?Updated a month ago
Each spike responds to tension in your body, so more tension = more sensation.
Thousands of spikes pressing into your skin feels prickly and uncomfortable at first, but this is completely normal.
After a few minutes, the tingling sensation fades into a deep, relaxing warmth. Any redness is an indication of increased circulation. You might even fall asleep.
There will always be a sensation when you lie down on spikes, or wrap them around your legs, but remember that’s all part of acupressure. Cold plunge doesn’t work if the water isn’t cold, right?
