Designed to make pressure adjustment easy, the Bed of Nails Acupressure Mat is covered by 8,820 non-toxic plastic points. Similar to acupuncture, the pressure of the rounded nails against the skin may help the body release endorphins, which provides a sense of joy, energy, and pain relief. Oxytocin may also be released, which makes you feel calm and relaxed.

Everybody reacts differently to Bed of Nails and the effects may even vary from time to time. You may feel sleepy, alert, relaxed, or happy with a clearer mind.
