An acupressure mat, is a self-applied acupuncture device commonly made of a foam mattress covered in cotton sacking and embedded with hard plastic disks containing protruding spikes. History The modern acupressure mat was developed in Sweden, with origins in the yoga community. In August 2009 the Swedish manufacturer ShaktiMat organised a mass meeting of 3000 users in a park in Stockholm. They sat or laid down on their mats, which were arranged like sunbeams, and sang Mantras. The event resulted in an entry in the Guinness Book of Records. Shortly afterwards, The New York Times reported on the new trend in Sweden. |
