Serious spikes for serious relaxation

EMBRACE THE OUCH ALL OVER AGAIN

OUR MOST INTENSE SPIKES (EVER)

Fewest spikes = most intense. With 50% fewer than Level 3 (Advanced), you’ll get more pressure on the same acupoints through our signature spikes that have been re-distributed for maximum effect. The release is next-level, and it lingers long after you’ve peeled off.

Same Premium experience

New Premium shape with soft Blissfoam™ that nestles each spike into deep tension. In the Mat, it’s organic, soft enough to sink into, yet firm enough to push back. In the Pillow, it’s shredded for unmatched plushness and mouldability. Both are finished with rounded corners, piped edges and discreet YKK® zippers.

Seriously limited edition

Our spikes were never meant to be this sharp, but you asked for it. Delivered in minimal quantities in the exclusive shade, Dusk. Our token of love and appreciation to you: our most dedicated Shakti’ers.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this level 4 acupressure mat provides significantly more intense sensation than lower levels, requiring an adjustment period of a few minutes before the initial discomfort transforms into deep relaxation and warmth. Many describe progressing through levels 2 and 3 before upgrading to this mat. Users frequently mention falling asleep during sessions and experiencing improved sleep quality afterward. The mat helps release muscle tension, particularly in the back, neck, and shoulders. Common feedback includes that the initial sharp sensation gives way to profound relaxation within minutes, with many using it as part of their nightly routine. Some customers express desire for an even higher intensity level 5. The pillow receives praise for targeting neck and head tension effectively.

    Perfect for deep relaxation

    Love this addition to the mat. Not only do I get the support of a pillow, all the tension and stress swiftly fades away.

    Refreshing.

    When I first stood on the Level 4 mat I had to hold

    on to a pole as it was very intense. After a few minutes I

    let go and was able to stand without assistance for 10 minutes while using my acupressure ring on each finger. To my surprise when I stepped off I felt very refreshed. I then laid on it for 15 minutes and felt great after. I have a Level 3 mat and was curious to try Level 4 and I am glad I did. The trick is to relax and let the sensation over take you and then I find you get the most benefit.

    Takes away aches and anxiety

    This level takes a minute to relax fully onto but it feels fantastic and I typically fall asleep. It calms my mind and relieves a backaches from the day.

    Meh

    I already had the level 3 and wanted the step up..... but to be honest its not..... at first it feels more intense maybe.... or maybe just different.

    But I find once you relax onto it, if anything it feels less intense than the level 3.

    If you look at the two mats side by side you see the level 3 have longer Skinner spikes than the level 4.

    I think thats why the level 4 feels less intense even that there are less spikes, they are also shorter and wider.

    Hi Josh, thanks for sharing your experience. It sounds like you’ve built a strong tolerance over time. Well done.
    Level 4 is designed a bit differently: by reducing the number of spikes per disc, each spike applies more pressure when you lie down, even if it feels different at first. The shorter, wider spikes help distribute your weight evenly, giving a deeper, more consistent release across your back.
    It’s completely normal for the sensation to feel different compared to Level 3, and over time, your body will adapt to this new level. If you’d like to chat further or have us check your order, feel free to email us at support@shaktimat.co.nz.

    “Feels like sleeping on a bed of nails… but in the best way!”

    At first, lying on this premium acupressure mat felt intense, like a bed of tiny nails pressing into every point of my back. My muscles were sore and stiff at first, but after just a few minutes, I could feel the tension melting away. By the end of the session, my back felt lighter, more relaxed, and surprisingly energized. It’s intense but totally worth it. If you’re looking for a deep, therapeutic release that leaves your back feeling amazing, this mat is a game-changer!
