Acupressure Mats As Safe Alternatives To Painkilling Drugs For The Relief Of Pain And Other Conditions

Pain is the body’s natural warning system that tells us something is wrong. It’s essential that you take measures to find relief whether you’re suffering from sleep problems, depression, chronic pain, fatigue, and stress-related illnesses or feel pain due to a physical injury. In Western societies, we turn to what we know all too often. For a quick fix, we turn to drugs. The problem is this quick fix almost always never addresses the underlying cause of the problem and we end up buying a ton of pain medications and run a small fortune on medical bills due to the constant return of the pain. All these hassles can be avoided by simply laying on an Acupressure Mat.

The Chinese have a saying that somewhat goes like this: “Where there is no circulation, there is pain. Where there is no pain, there is circulation.”

Acupressure is a proven healing therapy that uses touch unlike acupuncture which uses needles. Acupressure relies on pressure to help boost the flow of blood in the body. It is one the most natural, invasive, and safest way to alleviate discomfort and pain and to jumpstart the self-healing processes of the body. This therapy is quite inexpensive and convenient and is usually performed in a clinical setting by a qualified therapist.

Using an acupressure mat is the most practical and simplest way to receive acupressure therapy. The mats are very easy to use and can be easily integrated into your everyday routine. You can use them anywhere and anytime you feel like using them. You can place the Acupressure Mat on any flat surface such as the floor, and you can use them also on a sofa or chair.

These mats can relax your body and your mind and relieve fatigue and tiredness.

In acupressure, the therapist presses an acupoint stimulating the point that increases blood flow in a certain area and releases tension and stress as well as toxins that have accumulated in the body. The therapy also helps the body take in more nutrients and oxygen and transports them to every cell in our body. It provides a variety of benefits such as alleviating muscle tension and pain, reenergizing the body, increasing the strength of the immune system, and speeding up the self healing processes of the body. Anyone can also use it to simply relax and wind down.

When you lie on an acupressure mat and relax, you can naturally reenergize yourself and help activate the production and release of oxytocin and endorphins, the pain relieving hormones of the body. You can release these hormones through exercises and once released they can bring in a general sense of mental and physical well being, help alleviate stress, provide comfort to tired and aching muscles, give you a natural high, and relieve pain.

You can use these acupressure mats to boost digestion and metabolism; treat asthma, flu, and colds; activate the immune system; alleviate headaches and migraines; increase your energy levels; and help you get a deeper more restorative sleep.

If you still are in doubt of experiencing the benefits of lying on an acupressure mat, here are a few facts to consider:

One specific acupressure mat called the Acuswedemat, is made up of over 14,000 acupoints; compared to its nearest competitor which only has 8,000 points. Acuswedemat is widely used by the Swedish National Dressage Squad’s Elite Riders for both “winding down”, and training.

This mat has actually gone through a series of clinical studies in Russia, the US, and Sweden. It has been scientifically proven to measurably and significantly reduce the severity of pain on patients without causing any adverse side effects.
