How does the Spoonk mat differ to the other acupuncture mats sold via Amazon (e.g. Nayoya Wellness) and what additional benefits does it have?

The ones from Nayoya Wellness are also very good. I have just brought a set (pillow and mat) from them. In term of these mats, both Spoonk and Nayoya are very good brand. However, other brands of mats that sold on Amazon are not as good quality. I found that the Spoonk and Nayoya mats help me to release back, shoulder, and neck pains. Also relax you to sleep.

I have three comments to make. First, I bought Wu Yang Brand and it says on the package, "Pain Relieving Medicated Plaster". Secondly, the package I bought was a metal canister that was brown in color and not what I see here in green packaging. Sorry, but I did not buy the green package so cannot help with what it says on that one. Thirdly, I loved the product and would highly recommend it. It worked for my aches and pains!

You may want to contact Manduka customer service to see if they would give lifetime warranty for mats puchased from other sites. I have the Black mat pro and it is the best yoga mat I have ever used. It may be pricey but worth every penny. I will not use anything else.

I do not recall the difference. Since I take it to prevent the buildup of "sludge" following gallbladder surgery and Cholacol was not available I decided it was better than nothing. There was also something about the ingredients that made me think it would do what I intended. I have not run it by my homeopath. Sorry I don't have a better answer.

If you compare the ingredients you can see why it's cheaper. This is made from soy and whey and all the other ingredients I read weren't real food ingredients like Shakeology. You could use it instead, but it will not give you the same nutritional benefits.

go to the manufacturer's website...lots of info there.http://himalayamat.com/health-benefits.html

Hi M. J. I'm a 64 year old male and I use the Silicone Mat. Like you I need a replacement from a plastic mat, Yes it is more expensive but the benefit is worth the money. My wife also uses the Silicone mat for making pie crusts ware as I make a pastry that consists of Cream Cheese and Flour. This mat does not slip on the counter when you roll out your dough - a benefit from the plastic one we had.So for clean up soapy water - easy, and the mat folds up and doesn't loose shape for the next time you use it.I recommend this mat enjoy You can send me some cookies for the review Hi M.

I honestly do not know about how or how long it takes for the body to detoxify by using the mat. It is a wonderful tool but you really need to support the detox with diet and herbs as well. Are you detoxing for heavy metals or something specific?

Advice for people with healthy knees: If you're alright with doubling over the mat for positions which put your weight on your knees, then go for the Harmony. The Harmony mat bends and unbends really easily. I never feel hassled when I fold the mat over to protect my knees. Also, Harmony's thinness makes it ideal for balance poses. I sometimes find that cushier mats affect my balance. However, if you suffer from knee issues, then disregard everything I just said and get the density. My husband has had knee surgery after sports accidents, thus he uses thick mats because of existing miniscus damage. It's imperative that he do so, because knee issues never go away and only get worse over time.

I'm not sure but it's not enough to make a difference. It's a great program and the Base Kit had a lot of extras. It is for beginners but does advance as quickly as you are ready. Again it is all you need if you already really aren't into Tai Chi. It's very good. Dr. Cheng is a great instructor, no screaming, silliness or showing off. Easy on the eyes too.

I just bought it off amazon so I couldn't tell the difference. I don't think the one from her web site has any differences.

Hi Geraldine, I take cho wa because it relaxes me. It tastes good with agave vs honey because honey sinks to the bottom and you do not taste the honey as well. It does help with immune system as well.

One of the differences is the company who makes it..I am a massage therapist. I trust the company that makes Zeel.. Read the ingredients on both packages. When using either product, you need to use it daily and regularly.. If there is no difference in 1 month, move on.. I have found body work that increases circulation is key to alleviating arthritis pain

Check out this article. It helps to shed light on which curcumin product is actually more effective, and takes out the confusion. It's an article about BCM-95 (whats in this product) vs. Meriva (the liposomal version). http://www.europharmausa.com/press-releases/97/april-14-2011-europharmas-bcm-95-curcumin-superior-in-absorption-/

This does help and allows blood to flow to those areas . For myofascial trigger points i use nayoya back hook massager to release and then lay on my mat for blood flow and endorphins. The mat acts as a natural analgesic for me . These two products in concert work wonders. I will never be without them! The back hook us temporarily out of stock but Nayoya said it will be in within a couple of weeks . If you are not satisfied with the products Nayoya offers full a refund with no questions asked! You can't go wrong!!

I haven't tried the other one, but this one can make you feel bruised you if you lean against it too hard. I control the pressure by adjusting my posture. I have read of others using other pillows around it to support you so that your full weight isn't against just the shiatsu pillow. Because it's smaller than one of the "chair-sized" massagers, it's easy to make adjustments as needed.

it's great and very cushy, as long as you are not doing hot yoga. If you are it gets slippery with perspiration. I tried my Gaiam mat a few times, then ended up splurging on one of those expensive Lululemon ones.
