Usage Tips

• BEGINNERS- Beginners can start by propping the mat against a chair or sofa for 10-15 minutes to get used to the feeling of the acupressure points, while still enjoying the benefits. This is a great way for beginners to experience the acupressure mat while sitting in front of the computer or television and get accustomed to the feeling of acupressure's positive effect on the body.
• INTERMEDIATE - Intermediate users can start using the acupressure mat and pillow on the couch or bed while reading, meditating or watching television. Using the mat and pillow this way provides a cushioning of sorts for your back and lets you get adjusted to using your mat without putting the maximum amount of pressure on your back. It also makes time fly by as you can watch tv from your bed or couch. Suggested time for using the mat this way is 20-45 minutes. After the first 5 minutes you will feel warm, relaxing sensations in your back and neck as the body gets warm from the increased blood flow to the areas.
  
• ADVANCED - Advanced users can place the mat on a hard floor and lie directly on top while spreading your bodyweight evenly across the mat. Since the hard surface of the floor provides no cushioning effect, there is more direct acupressure point stimulation for your back causing a larger increase in circulation to the area for immediate stress and pain relief while promoting healing within the body. Suggested time for using the mat for advanced users is 45 minutes and up. The advanced method is great for users in need of relief from chronic pain. 
• Headache Relief. For the purpose of headache relief there are two ways to use your Acupressure Set. You can stand barefoot on the mat for 5 minutes initially which uses the principles of reflexology on the pressure points of your feet to help alleviate headaches while working up to 15 minutes. The second way to achieve headache relief would be to lay on your acupressure neck pillow with the back of your head to stimulate the pressure points of your scalp and alleviate tension from your head.

• Heart and Circulatory Issues: Acupressure affects the circulatory system, so it can be dangerous for individuals with high blood pressure, bleeding disorders and other circulatory issues. Also avoid acupressure if you’re taking any blood-thinning medication (although aspirin is okay). 
• Skin Inflammations or Other Issues: Avoid using an acupressure mat on any areas with burns, infections or other skin irritations. Also check with your doctor before using if you have any type of cancer, including skin cancer, or tumors. 
• History of Seizures If you have a history of seizures, you can still use an acupressure mat. However, you want to make sure you never use the mat alone, without supervision from a friend or workout partner. 
• Pregnancy If you’re pregnant, consult with your doctor before using any acupressure techniques. Many pressure points, especially in the hands and feet, can be used to induce labor. You don’t want to accidentally stimulate uterine contractions early, as that can pose a variety of risks. Additionally, avoid manipulating any pressure points in the lower torso, which can accidentally cause fetal damage.
