Anwendung der Akupressurmatte – Does an acupressure mat necessarily have to be ergonomic?
Acupressure mats have been trending for years – and for good reason. They promote relaxation, relieve back pain, support recovery after sports, and help many people sleep better. But with the huge variety of models on the market, a crucial question quickly arises: Does an acupressure mat actually need to be ergonomic?
Before we answer that, it’s worth taking a brief look at how an acupressure mat works and its possible uses – and why especially ergonomic models like those from CALM ELEPHANT stand out in independent acupressure mat tests.
What does an acupressure mat help with?
The idea behind the acupressure mat comes from traditional Chinese medicine. Small, evenly arranged spikes stimulate pressure points when lying or sitting, which:
- stimulate blood circulation
- release muscle tension
- reduce stress hormones
- release endorphins
- and thus increase overall well-being
Many users report less back pain, a relaxed neck, loosened shoulders, and more restful sleep.
Applications – versatile and individual
Acupressure mats are not just for the back. They can be used almost anywhere:
- Back & shoulders: for relaxation after a long workday
- Neck & head: against tension headaches or migraines
- Lumbar spine: for targeted loosening of the lower back muscles
- Feet: for reflexology massage and improved circulation
- Legs & behind the knees: for recovery after sports
Depending on the set and accessories – such as a headrest or additional cushions – different body areas can be treated specifically. But this is exactly where the difference between simple and ergonomic acupressure mats.
becomes clear.

- offer only a flat mat and a simple head pillow. That may sound sufficient at first, but in practice often leads to problems:When lying flat on a conventional mat, a hollow back is automatically created. The lumbar area lifts slightly off the ground – the spine there is .
- neither supported nor treated with acupressure.To compensate for this effect, many users unconsciously bend their legs. However, this leads to
tension in the legs and hips – and thus less relaxation in the back.
