Easy to use and felt much less stiff after using
I suffer from lower back pain and sciatica and I find this helps.
I don’t use it as much as I should.
There are 3 settings and i only use the lowest. You need to be incredibly supple to find the highest setting comfortable.
I recommend this product for anyone who has issues but also wants to remain flexible.
Excellent! Use every day, 7 minutes warm up and then either of the other settings. Great to keep you supple and limber.
Was recommended by a friend and love using this daily. It gently stretches your back, neck and hips and I have noticed real benefits feeling very supple once I get off it. Any problem areas have been eased with constant use I would highly recommend it and have sold 4 to friends already!
I love that it is easy to use and I feel that it does give your body a work out. Stores away easily and is quiet so you don’t feel like there is a loud machine in the room with you.
Easy to use, just lie down and relax. You can choose intensity. It does really stretches your body. I am really impressed.
Easy to use and helpful for my back and neck
Various programs give you a great manipulation and haven’t got to the highest level ye
This is better than I expected.
My spine feels less stiff and I’ve only been using it for a short time.
Easy to pack away and store
This is brilliant very easy to use. We both suffer from back pain since starting with this we have both become far more supple and less pain. Stores easily under units with legs.
I got this for Christmas. I have fibromyalgia and psoriatic arthritis. I suffer with pain in the hips, back and pelvis. This has been really helpful in relieving that pain almost instantly. I can’t recommend it enough. I have really struggled with pain over the last few days and got on the mat this morning and I feel less pained and not as stiff there is still pain as I have fibro but it is manageable pain. I am really pleased with the ma
My husband has had discectomy 30 years ago, was stiff and physio unable to make any improvement, he was in pain and had poor posture. After first session he stood up straighter than he had for years. The movement and flexibility this has given him has allowed him to get fitter than he’s been for years. This gave him confidence that he could move without harming himself and stretched him so that he was better able to maintain a more normal posture.
I found it helps when I have been seated at work -it’s released general aches and stretches back and neck at the end of the day.
Highly recommend.
My family bought this as birthday present and apart from difficulty of actually getting hold of are very pleased.
My wife says it is wonderful and just what she was expecting, so is most pleased.
Once I had managed to order came promptly and well packed.
The only thing I would suggest if you want one is to sign up for email alert when available and order straight away when you receive; this item seems very popular and had sold out again by the time I had finished order.
We’ll pleased when finally managed to order though.
The wife has constant back issues, this was a Christmas gift I didnt have great hopes for, but worth a stocking filler. To our surprise it has helped greatly. I dont see her running a marathon any time, but between osteo appointments it helps keep mobility and reduce pain. 5 stars
Love that it is very relaxing only use few times but love it comfortable does relieve pain a little but it will take regular use to make a difference to my back but getting there does help
It’s very relaxing to use this mat, it’s almost like a massage mat but not quite. It is good for stretching your neck and back, I mean ofcourse you can do your stretch yourself but mat’s doing it for you adds more relaxation to your session. So far I am happy with this purchase.
Can recommend this product if you like exercise and massage as it gives an experience which offers a combination of the two. Takes a little getting used to, I suggest using the energising sequence first, then the short shoulder workout at the lowest setting which has to be chosen as it is set to start with the middle intensity. Used it alternate days initially then increased to daily and it definitely helped my back relax and posture has improved accordingly. Areas of the mat expand and collapse – the collapse is a bit of a shock until you get accustomed. Good mindfulness practice if you just feel into those areas as it happens – brings you into the present moment. (Not recommended for those with sensory deficiencies in lower body – info in leaflet.) I am a qualified exercise teacher and health practitioner.
It brilliant , you lie there and it makes you twist and turn it lifts and stretches your back my shoulders feel great and I can feel my stomach muscles tightening
Really is worth every penny
After suffering with lower back pain this mat has really helped me. It’s very quick and easy to set up and put it away. I chose this model because I can use it on my bed as getting down to and up from the floor is a struggle as I am awaiting a hip replacement. I find I can comfortably cope with the twisting action with a slight adjustment of my affected hip during that particular movement. The air noise can initially be an issue, but after a few weeks of use I’m not really aware of it any longer.
I bought this as I can’t really do a lot of physical movement in some muscle groups so it was handy for gentle movements. Would have liked the possibility of increasing stretch more but with this model you are limited to 3 strength settings.
This may is great really stretches your whole body if you have arthritis like me you no when you are sitting down for 30 minutes or 10 minutes and you get up to move it is a great effort, but soon as u go on this mat it really feels like a new you, fantastic mat .
I bought it for my wife as a birthday present, I have tried it and I liked it so much that I am using it as well.
We have been using this every couple of days and can feel a difference in our backs.
Expensive but the quality and effectiveness of Homedics products in general is worth the extra cos
I enjoy using this as a relaxation each day. I expected it to be softer to lie on though you can use it on a bed
I bought this opting for a yoga workout rather than a hot tub to ease stiffness before playing golf, I now have half an hour every morning and feel ten years younger – its heaven.
If your in two minds, like I was, don’t be, this works !
I enjoy the stretching & it has 4
preset treatment sessions which you can dial up or down for intensity.
I’m disabled &this Matt is perfect for me . I have never been able to learn any yoga CORRECTLY so I can’t submit if it correct yoga moves but it feels correct & cause me no problem
It does give you feel more flexible and you can feel it working when in use. Do not have back pain but due to sleeping funny one night, I could not straighten my back. Got up in the middle of the night and used it, due to being uncomfortable and used it again the following day. Back was back to normal and no pain.
I really like this yoga mat as it gives me some extra padding to support my bad back. Only downside is that my yoga teacher has said that as it has extra padding it can cause you to slip when balancing, so I probably should have bought a thinner mat which I will do.
In fact it was a lovely present. I have rheumatism in all of my joints and it is lovely to come home and lie on this mat for half an hour after work.
I’m not sure that it is going to have a huge impact on my condition, but the fact that I am lying flat and stretching on a regular basis has to be good.
They call the mat ‘yoga inspired’ and I guess I can see why, it’s no substitute for a good gentle yoga class but it’s a nice addition to your weekly routine.
It’s stores nicely behind the sofa.
It’s a little noisy and the cat isn’t keen on it.
All in all if you want a life-changer, this probably isn’t for you, but if you fancy something that is relaxing and quite nice and will encourage you to take time out and stretch them you’ll be happy with this.
I was recommended this by my parents, it’s helped my back no end.. you can definitely feel the stretching, which is sometimes a tiny bit uncomfortable but worth it. I could hardly bend over most days until I used this, now I’m mostly pain free..if I feel a twinge I get straight back on the mat.
I brought this one for my pregnant wife. After we show the manual to the midwife, we decided to keep it rather than returning it. My wife’s midwife said, she can use it in the lowest model ans should stop using it once feel any uncomfortable. My wife tried several times, and feels good.
