Yoga Synergy is pleased to make the Shakti Mat available in Australia.

The Shakti Mat is a modern user friendly "bed of nails" of Swedish design that has fantastic scientifically proven results on tension and stress relief. More than 6000 points of acupressure on the Shakti Mat makes it an very efficient tool in resolving tension and administering deep relaxation. It both increases blood circulation and promotes massive release of endorphins (and other feel good hormones), which result in a state of meditative relaxation. The Shakti Mat can be of help when suffering from low levels of energy, high levels of stress, insomnia, tension pain, migraine, lumbago, sciatica, depression, and much more.

"One aspect of Hatha yoga is where you learn how to be in stressful situations while being relaxed. The Shakti Mat – a modern version of the Indian ‘Bed of Nails’ enhances this aspect of hatha yoga. This mat has over 6000 small spikes that can stimulate blood flow and endorphin release as well as treating your body with acupressure. Once you learn the science of relaxation, then the mat, your yoga, exercise and your life can feel stimulating yet blissful."
