Product details of Beneficial Acupressure Mat With Pillow

Using an acupressure mat might not be the most relaxing experience at first — after all, you are putting your body weight on a bunch of spikes — but Ingegno recommends placing the acupressure mat on your mattress and putting a T-shirt between your back and the spikes to reduce the intensity. Then, gently rest your back on the mat, paying attention to applying pressure to the area between your shoulder blades.

“That’s the number one area for people to hold stress, and is great for regulating sleep,” he explains.

Plan to use the acupressure mat daily for about 20 minutes before bed at the beginning, says Bacharach. You can gradually scale up or down in 5- to 10-minute increments over the course of a few weeks to see how it affects your sleep until you find your sweet spot.

You might also consider practicing other sleep-promoting techniques, like listening to calming music, doing breathing exercises, and meditating, while using the acupressure mat to further boost your chances of getting a good night’s rest.
