Two weeks ago I finally took the plunge and purchased an acupressure mat. I've been experiencing pain and tightness in my upper shoulders / neck area and even after getting a massage - it was still killing me. One of my best friends has one of these and has raved about it forever.
I NOW UNDERSTAND WHY.
I lay on this mat for a minimum of 10 minutes a day, but longer if I'm able. It's taken my upper shoulders and neck pain from a 6 or 7 back down to a 2 or 3 on the pain scale.
I love that this was a natural option instead of taking medication. It also allows me time to be still + clear my mind during every session (added bonus)!
