ProsourceFit Acupressure Mat and Pillow Set for Back/Neck Pain Relief and Muscle Relaxation, XL - Grey/White

Buy it! I work as a hair and makeup artist and also have frequent migraines. I used this the first two days and it was difficult I didn’t feel the best and had a headache BUT I truly believe it released either toxins or tension. After a week it has been incredible! I genuinely sleep so much better at night, I’ve used it every night for 15 mins and I can easily pop my neck and haven’t gotten a migraine since. I never have anything I can’t live without in my routine but this is definitely is! I use it after a bath and shower and it’s just so relaxing and I almost always fall asleep on it. I wish it came with a bag to keep it in but that’s my only complaint.

I’m 21 years old and shoe horses for a living. I’ve been getting stiff in my low back and neck pain. When I wake up in the morning I can’t turn my head or look up very well. When I do my stretches, I struggle with the “mermaid pose”; while trying to extend my arms and stretch my abs it feels like I’m about to pinch a nerve in my back. It’s started to concern me because I’m young, but I don’t want to pay a bunch of money for chiropractors and massages. I had first heard of acupressure mats from a Shakti ad. It looked really nice but I could justify the price. In the past few weeks my pain has gotten worse so I figured I’d give it a try. Still couldn’t justify the price so I checked Amazon. When I saw the spikes on this mat I knew it had to be good. I checked many reviews to see if it would work for me. The 2 and 3 star reviews of people saying it hurt too bad made me want it that much more. I’ve had the mat for 4 days now. The first day I laid on it for about 3 minutes. It was very painful and my sister thought I was crazy. Each day I’ve laid on it a little longer. Last night. I laid on it for 15 minutes. Here’s the general timeline for what I’ve felt: 0 minutes you’ve just laid on the mat it’s so painful it takes your breath away and your hands and feet are weak. 2-2.5 minutes you start to feel the numbing sensation, the pain is way more tolerable, and you can relax your muscles and sink in a little more. 4.5-5 minutes your back gets very warm, a wave of calm comes over you, and you feel like you can lay on it as long as you want. About 10 minutes I started to feel my pulse in my back and I was completely relaxed and calm. After laying on the mat for 10 minutes I have incredible range of motion in my neck and back. I can look side to side and all the way up with no discomfort. My back feels incredible. As soon as I got off the mat I checked with the mermaid pose and I stretched further than I have in probably a couple years. I was overjoyed. The calming sensation is also really nice. Totally a stress reliever. Initially I tried it with a shirt on and it did nothing so I went straight to bareback. Let me reiterate… THE FIRST TWO MINUTES HURT! If it doesn’t hurt it’s not working, in my opinion. Also, I put it on the floor so the only cushioning is what comes in the mat. What I wanted was a meat tenderizer for my muscles and that’s what I got. I couldn’t be happier with this thing. Another thing to mention. I saw several reviews of people saying it’s too small. I’m 5’10” and the spikes cover my whole back. I do use the neck pillow as well so there’s a strip at the top of my shoulders that doesn’t make contact with any spikes, but that isn’t what I’m targeting anyway. But for $20, you can move around on the mat if you want to target different areas it’s not that big of a deal. TLDR: Buy it. It’s cheap and it works. Painful at first and then warm and tingly after 2 minutes. You will feel amazing at 10 minutes. Greatly helped my back and neck pain and mobility. Great stress reliever.

This therapy seems to work because it definitely increased the circulation in my back and after 10 minutes of usage, the points felt comfortable and my muscles seemed to be less knotted. However, the points are so sharp that putting it against my bare skin just felt like torture each time. I tried to use this mat lying down, but due to my weight, they dug in too much. I found it most comfortable to put the mat on a recliner back, and then slowly recline the back so I was lying on it at an angle so my full weight was not on it. I also put the pillow behind my neck. Despite giving me some relief when I used it, I found the whole process very uncomfortable, and also it was very difficult not to get scratched every time I brought out this mat. Also, if I left it lying around so I use it more often, I had to be careful that no one came in contact with it and scratched themselves. Right now I don’t have pets, but it still became a bit of a challenge to figure out where to use this safely, so I just decided to return it. I am still giving it four stars because the product did work. It just was difficult to use it in my house.

This product is the miracle I have been searching for. I have had chronic back pain for 10 years. Herniated disks in my lower back, nerve pain, sciatic pain, SI joint pain, hips and pelvic pain from pregnancies, severe muscle spasms, ribs out of alignment....you name it I have been dealing with it non stop. I have tried physical therapy which didn’t work, and I have been on way too many pain meds and muscle relaxers just to function. Even then I was in so much pain 24/7. I’m 39, but I felt like I have been living in a 90 year old body. Enter this little torcher device. This mat of 3,000 little spikes feels as scary as it looks. I laid on it for the first time without a shirt and my brain immediately panicked because the pain/pressure/burning sensation was too intense. I had read previous reviews that mentioned this so I breathed through it for the next minute or so. After that, the intense pain begins to decrease and a hot burning sensation intensifies. You can feel the blood rushing to the area and you can feel your brian trying to interpret these unfamiliar sensations. Is it pain? Is it pressure?? Am I dying? It’s an interesting experience to see your body figure it out. At the 8 minute mark the pain continues to diminish and you get very relaxed. By 10 minutes you feel like you’re in almost a nirvana state, even though there is still a lot of discomfort. Rolling off the mat is pretty uncomfortable although it’s manageable. Your back will be all red and you will see 3000 little dimple indentions from the points. It’s kind of itchy afterwards for a few minutes but that all goes away shortly. Here’s the crazy part. From the very first time I did this, my back pain has been virtually gone. All of it. The pain relief lasts almost a full day, so I do it once in the morning and again in the evening when I start to feel discomfort start to set back in. The only explanation I can think of is that it resets your body’s pain receptors or disrupts their normal pathways to the brain or something. I’m not a doctor but I can tell something was shifted in my brains perception of pain signals. Although it’s an uncomfortable 20 minutes out of my day, IT IS WORTH IT. I feel great the rest of the day and my whole outlook on life has improved. Living in chronic pain is a difficult experience and I am so thankful to have found something that helps get me off the pain meds and brings me much needed relief.

I’ve tried something in the past and recently feel like I should get my own set so I can enjoy it at home. This one has a lot of reviews and also good rating so I decided to get this a try. When I first got it, it’s actually extremely sharp unlike what I had before. But I figured once you have even pressure over it, it wouldn’t be a big deal, just need to get use to it. Overall it’s not bad, it is slightly shaprtwr than I would like. But that’s not what I gave it a 3 star. The reason is at the material of the fabric and the foam. The fabric is extremely thin, and it’s not a good material neither. I opened up the seam and the foam is quite a joke. It’s so thin and so support at all. It’s pretty disappointing. I know this item is not expensive so if you are right on budget and don’t mind the overall quality or longevity, sure give it a try. But if you want good quality product, you might want to look somewhere else.

Bought this after seeing ads for the Shakti Mat all over social media. I thought I might like it, but since it was $100 I thought I'd start small with one of these first and see if I use it enough to justify the cost of an upgrade. Holy cow. This thing has literally revolutionized my sleep habits. I use it in the evenings as I'm going to bed if I'm having a hard time "turning off" or don't feel sleepy. It makes me fall asleep in 5 minutes and I feel extreeeemely relaxed and comfortable using it. Does it hurt at first? Yes. Do my wife and father hate it? Also yes. So I don't think it'll be for everyone. But man this thing gets me sleepy like 🤌 THAT. I used to never be able to nap in the middle of the day but with this, I'm ready to fall asleep at any time in literally minutes. It is amazing. I fall asleep on it regularly. Absolutely hate the pillow (it is weirdly stiff and oddly shaped) but the mat rocks. Wish it was longer so it could get my whole body. If you have a long torso you might need something else. I am 5'4 and this hits from my upper butt to my neck.

Totally relieved my neck, shoulder, and hip pain combo! It is uncomfortable to lay on and I heeded the pamphlet's suggestion for beginners to start at 10 minutes. My husband could only endure 7 minutes on his first try bc he has so much pain to begin with. We both noticeably felt belter when we got up. Wow! Cool!

I love this.l was at first it was sharp to the touch but once you layed on it it felt amazing.worth the money

Second hand material.

Fantastic! This gives instant stress relief! Both my husband and I love it and have used every day since we received it. Worth every penny!
