Reviews Summary
Customers say this acupressure pillow creates initial discomfort followed by deep relaxation, with many falling asleep during use. They find it versatile for targeting neck, shoulders, head, and other body areas. Users report the spikes provide a massage-like sensation that helps release tension and improve sleep quality. Many appreciate using it alongside mats for complete relaxation sessions. Common feedback includes an adjustment period of several days to weeks before experiencing full comfort. Some mention the pillow works better without clothing for maximum effect. A few users with thicker hair find the spikes less effective on the scalp, while others prefer different intensity levels or pillow shapes for their needs.

    Very spikey!

    I started with a cheap acupressure mat and was completely comfortable on it, so I thought I was ready for the Level 2. These spikes are sharper than anything else! Great quality and the cushy inner layer softens the blow a bit, and the spikes are a better shape for avoiding breakage compared to the curved Pranamat spikes. Very happy - but still working up to a full session on the Level 2! I’ve been able to get a good night’s sleep for the first time in six months despite only being able to handle a few minutes laying on the mat - the pillow is great behind the neck/lower back while sitting if you’re brave.

    My favourite Shakti item

    I am so in love with the premium Shakti mat and pillow. I use them both pretty much every day and the relief is incredible. I find myself craving some time on the spikes! The pillow is especially helpful and versatile - I get a lot of tension in my neck, jaw, and the base of my skull, so I sometimes sleep on the pillow or tuck it against my hip/lower back/etc while I'm watching TV or working (at a desk) and it helps me to relax so much. The sensory feedback is amazing as well, I can't recommend Shakti enough and I've become slightly insufferable telling everybody I know that they need to try it!
