The Hooga Red Light Therapy Acupressure Mat combines two well-established recovery modalities in a single mat — near-infrared and red light exposure paired with 3,024 acupressure spikes. Lie down, press the timer button, and get a 15-minute session that targets your back and body with light and pressure at the same time.
Important product note — please read before you buy
This is not a soft, cushioned pad. The mat features 3,024 firm plastic acupressure spikes (144 discs × 21 spikes each) designed to create intentional pressure across the back and body.
You lie directly on these spikes. The sensation can feel sharp or intense during the first few minutes, especially for new users — that intensity is part of how acupressure works to stimulate circulation and muscle release. If you’re looking for a plush, cushioned, or heat-only mat, this product isn’t it.
What’s Inside
- 144 dual-chip LEDs across the mat surface, emitting 660 nm (red) and 850 nm (near-infrared)
- >100 mW/cm² irradiance at the LED surface for meaningful dose in a 15-minute session
- 3,024 acupressure spikes across 144 discs (21 spikes per disc) — firm ABS plastic
- Automatic 15-minute timer with beep alert and auto shutoff
- Mat dimensions: 26″ × 18″
- 0 µT EMF output at the surface
- AC 100–240V input (works worldwide)
- Includes matching pillow and simple inline controller
How People Use It
- Back and shoulders: Lie flat with the mat under your back. The spike pressure targets tension along the spine while red and NIR light reach the skin and near-surface tissue.
- Feet, legs, or arms: Stand or press against the mat to work localized areas. Adjust pressure with a thin shirt or towel to start.
- Wind-down routine: Many customers use it as an end-of-day habit. The pressure is stimulating for the first minute or two, then relaxing as your body adapts.
- Warmup before stretching: A short session before mobility or yoga can loosen tension in the back.
New to Acupressure? Start Here
- First session: Wear a thin shirt to reduce initial intensity. Lie down for 5–10 minutes rather than a full 15.
- Sessions 2–5: Extend toward the full 15 minutes. The sharpness fades within the first couple of minutes as your body adjusts.
- Ongoing: Skin-to-mat contact delivers the full effect. Many users work down to a bare-skin session after a week.
How to Use
- Connect the timer control cable to the mat, then to the power supply cable.
- Plug the power supply into an outlet — the mat is now in standby.
- Lie down on the mat, then press the timer button once to start the 15-minute session.
- The lights turn on and the indicator illuminates. Timer beeps at the end, lights turn off, and the mat returns to standby.
- Unplug from the outlet when not in use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the mat produce heat?
No — this mat delivers red / near-infrared light and acupressure only. It does not have a heating element. If you’re looking for infrared heat therapy, see our Infrared Sauna Blanket.
Does it really have 3,000+ spikes?
Yes — 3,024 exactly. 144 discs across the mat, each disc has 21 firm plastic spikes.
Is the spike sensation supposed to hurt?
The first minute or two can feel sharp, especially with bare skin. That’s normal for acupressure. Most people find the sensation shifts to warm, tingly, or relaxed once the body adjusts. Start with a thin shirt if the initial contact is too intense.
Can I use it every day?
Yes — daily 15-minute sessions are fine for most people. Skip a day if your back feels sore from a session and let it recover.
How do I clean it?
Wipe with a damp cloth or non-toxic disinfectant spray after use. Avoid soaking or harsh chemicals on the fabric backing.
Can I use it during pregnancy or with a medical condition?
Talk to your healthcare provider first. Acupressure and light exposure aren’t automatically contraindicated, but individual circumstances vary.
What’s the warranty?
2-year manufacturer warranty from date of purchase. See the full warranty page.
