What yoga mat should I purchase?
A yoga mat should be soft and supportive, with enough grip to prevent slipping, and be easy to clean and transport (whether from home to the park or back to in-person classes at your beloved gym or studio). Nitrofitnessplus’s Acupressure Muscle Relief Yoga Mat + Pillow came out on top after my hatha and hot-yoga instructors Downward-Dogged, Ashtanga vinyasa-flowed, and Savasanaed on 38 of the best yoga mats (plus one mat substitute). No matter what form of yoga you practice, its dual-textured sides, firm-yet-cushiony rubber construction, and generous dimensions will have you covered.

PAIN RELIEF: Simply resting on the mat for 10-30 minutes everyday can help to relieve muscle tension, back pain, and headaches. Acupressure releases endorphins, which aid to relieve pain and relax muscles in the back, neck, and foot.
FULL SUPPORT: Unlike many mats that merely cover your back, this set includes a pillow with acupressure points for neck support and more holistic pain relief.
RELAXATION AND STRESS RELIEF: Relax and unwind on this "bed of needles" as pressure points are massaged to help release tense muscles and relieve stress. Use before going to bed to improve your sleep and alleviate insomnia.
IMPROVED ENERGY AND CIRCULATION: Thousands of acupressure points stimulate nerves and enhance blood circulation, resulting in improved energy and faster muscle recovery. It's ideal for people who work at a desk all day, as well as active people and sports.
HIGH-QUALITY: The acupressure mat has 6,210 acupressure points and the neck pillow has 1,782 acupressure points, both made of 100 percent thick cotton and plant-based eco foam.
