The bed of nails has been used by Indian mystics for centuries in the practice of healing and meditation and now it's been re-invented with a Scandinavian twist to give you a whole range of benefits, from soothing sleeplessness and easing stress to helping you re-balance after a long haul flight, alleviating aches and pains and even restoring your skin's luminosity (the spikes help the body rid itself of toxins and increase blood flow, which gives you a healthy, lit-from-within glow).
The Bed of Nails Acupressure Pillow is covered with over 2,100 non-toxic plastic 'nails' that help release endorphins (the body's natural 'happy hormone') and oxytocin, to alleviate tension and leave you feeling calm and relaxed yet energised (you can be both at the same time)! The perfect way to lessen stubborn aches and pains, especially if you suffer from a stiff neck or knotted shoulders, this is also excellent for those who have trouble sleeping, easing you into a deep and restorative slumber.
The nails are made of 100% recycled non-toxic ABS plastic, the textile is cotton. The Bed of Nails should not be used in case of skin disease, haemophilia or the intake of anticoagulants.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
Lay the Bed of Nails pillow on the floor or a mattress and slowly lower yourself onto it. Lay a sheet over the pillow until your skin gets used to the spikes. Initially lie on the Bed of Nails pillow for 10 - 15 mins, then build up to 20 - 30mins. Use as often as you need - preferably daily.
Don't be alarmed if your skin feels warm and tingly, and it's perfectly safe to fall asleep for a while. If you are uncertain, always consult your doctor. Keep away from children 5 years of age and younger
Leaning against it (rather than laying on top of the mat and pillow) is a lighter way to use Bed of Nails while you acclimatise (you put less weight on the spikes when you do). Place the mat/pillow at the back of your sofa, bed or armchair to experience the benefits while building up your tolerance.

Very good.
At first, I was a little more dubious of this than the BofN mat (which I liked pretty much instantly). I've found that you really have to get the right angle/distance on your neck - I personally prefer it to be quite intense. I feel like it technically hurts a bit less than the mat, actually, despite it feeling 'wrong' given that it's your neck! If you're into this kind of thing already, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Really like it
I sometimes get terrible headaches that seem to originate at the base of my skull. I have found this pillow to be helpful mitigating that pain. In general, it just feels good as well!

Relaxing
Just like other reviews, I agree that this is very relaxing and places a nice soothing pressure on the back of the shoulders/neck/base of skull depending on where you place it. I have chronic pain and although this makes no difference to it, it is a welcome distraction the whole time you’re using it. Would like to try the mat next.

Obsessed
This works like magic, I'm so glad I gave it a try. I suffer from migraines and have regular neck and shoulder pains, and this is the only product that actually works. I have tried all kinds of heated pillows, gels and rubs but nothing compares to this. Bought one for my mother also and she agrees.

It works
It won't miraculously cure your migraines/headaches, but it's very soothing and relaxing, and distracts your brain from the pain. I will push my neck completely in it (it doesn't hurt) and love the tingly sensation afterwards. I recommend it to all my friends who suffer from migraines and they like it as much as I do.

I adore this
I love this! It doesn't hurt at all (actually it's warming and tingly), and I had to buy a second one as a gift for someone who kept 'borrowing' mine. I'm prone to migraines and this is a useful tool in my migraine care kit.

Amazing
I was sceptical about this even though friends had recommended it and it had good reviews. I have very bad trouble sleeping and relaxing in general, but it WORKS. I felt so relaxed, and you feel it in only a few minutes. I take it to work for my lunch break when I’m feeling stressed as it’s a good size. And amazing before bed - just make sure not to fall asleep on it!

Strangely brilliant
I have the acupressure mat and pillow and I use them probably every other night, though I should ideally use them every night before bed. Lying on these spikey things may seem scary but it wouldn't hurt, in fact, it helps you feel more relaxed. I noticed that I sleep way better through the night whenever I used the mat and pillow. Great investment in your well-being.
