Spoonk Combo Acupressure Mat 3 Item Set: A Revolution in Pain Relief & Sleep Induction Acupressure has been used for centuries to promote self-healing by rejuvenating and rebalancing the body. Spoonk works on the simple principle of acupressure by pressing the stimulation points on the skin to increase circulation and aid relaxation in the inflamed and painful muscle area, relieving muscle, nerve, and back pain. Spoonk provides the benefits of a deep tissue massage that lowers the 'stress hormone' cortisol while releasing endorphins (or 'feel good hormones'), which help create an overall more positive and relaxed state of mind.
