How to use your Pranamat
6 steps towards wellness
It takes just 20 minutes to feel the positive changes to your wellbeing. Consistency is key. Let’s get started!
Back massage
We recommend starting with a Pranamat classic back massage. It will relieve pain and other unpleasant sensations, as well as help minimize stress and improve your mood. Place your Pranamat Massage Set on a bed, a sofa or the floor. Slowly lay down on your Pranamat so that the Pillow sits under your head, neck and shoulders, while the Pranamat Mat covers your whole back.
Do the massage lotuses look too sharp to you? Wear a thin T-shirt during your massage! Once you get used to the feeling, try to gradually expose your back by moving the T-shirt up. For foot massage you can wear thin socks, and for thigh massage – leggings.
Lower back massage
Place your Mat on the floor or on the bed. Put the Pillow on top of the mat. Take off your shirt and gently lay down, so that the pillow adjusts to the curve of your back.
If you don’t already have a Pranamat Pillow, you can put a rolled-up towel under the Mat. Or you can bend your legs and hug them to your chest. This will help press your lower back more firmly against the Mat.
Neck massage
Do you dream of someone regularly massaging your neck and shoulders? With the Pranamat Pillow, a neck rub is always at hand. Simply place the Pillow under the nape of your neck, so that the Pillow’s lower part reaches the top of the shoulder area. You will only need 20 minutes of neck massage a day to feel the benefits. Pranamat Pillow and Mini mat are quite portable and it’s very easy to take them with you to work or on a holiday.
Tummy massage
You can also use Pranamat on your tummy. This type of massage promotes additional blood flow to the skin, which helps to keep it toned. It also helps reduce cramps and bloating. You will need only 5-15 minutes a day. During the massage session you can listen to music or keep up online.
Palm and foot massage
Addicted to those lotus spikes? We get it. Foot massage can boost your energy levels within minutes. We recommend trying it in the morning. You can sit in a chair and place your Pranamat Mini on the floor. Then gently press your feet into the lotuses. You can also simply stand on your Pranamat. 5 minutes is enough to get a boost of energy and get rid of stress. Many prefer to have foot massage with socks on for the first time. For hand massage simply press your palms into your Pranamat whenever you need a mental re-set. Many people keep the Mini next to their computer, so they can relieve stress whenever they feel the need.
Massage for toning the skin
Pranamat can be used for skin toning, on the thighs, butt and elsewhere! The most important bit is to find a comfortable position. Read a book or go on your phone so the time passes faster. A lot of our customers use their Pranamat like this after training. Have a shower and straighten your legs on the Mat, you can put the Pillow under the place where your knees bend to have better support and contact. Have a massage for 15 minutes.
