What a massage mat can do:

• supports the proper development of children's feet;
• improves muscle tone and strengthens the longitudinal and transverse arches;
• actively contributes to better blood circulation;
• relieves tension in the feet by stimulating nerve endings.

A set of recommended exercises:

All puzzle pieces are made of the same material – safe, hypoallergenic PVC without harmful additives. However, thanks to the different textures, each piece has a slightly different effect. Grass, Shells, Pebbles and Mushrooms are among the softer puzzles. Towers, Hedgehogs, Sea Animals and Acorns have medium hardness. Pyramid, Thorns, Lotus and Pine Cones, on the other hand, are firmer surfaces. The combination of modules of different hardness creates the best conditions for foot massage, arch training and the development of sensory integration.

Contraindication:

• open wounds or inflammatory diseases of the skin of the feet;
• diabetic foot syndrome.

There is also a variant with 4, 6, 8 and 10 parts.
