Acupress Back & Belly Band
Wearable relief for your back, belly, and busy life
The Acupress Back & Belly Band is the targeted tool that moves with you. It’s a wearable and adjustable mid-body wrap with a removable acupressure pad that's made with our Level 1 signature Shakti spikes.
Attaching the acupressure pad to the centre of the band releases your lower back. Moving it to the front inner-strap relieves your belly. Removing it entirely provides lumbar and postpartum support.
Fasten the inner straps so that the band fits comfortably around your waist, then tighten the outer straps to adjust the pressure of the spikes.
The low-profile silhouette hugs your natural contours and can be worn effortlessly under clothes. Wear it while sitting, driving, and moving through your day.
SIZE GUIDE
To find your perfect fit, stand relaxed and hold a soft measuring tape at your belly button, or the centre of your natural waistline. Circle it around your body to meet back at the start. Based on your measurement, select your size within our guide below:
Small: 65-79 cm
Medium: 80-99 cm
Large: 100-120 cm
FIT GUIDE
It’s designed to sit snugly around your waist, covering the lumbar region (your lower back and abdomen), aligning with the natural curve of your spine. The bottom should rest on the top of your hips, providing support without being overly tight or restrictive. The exact positioning of how you wear it is up to you, but the right fit will give you the best results.
On your back
1. Release all of the straps so they hang freely.
2. With the spikes facing towards you, attach the acupressure pad to the centre of the band, on the soft loop strip.
3. Fit the belt to your waist by positioning the spikes on your lower back, then wrap the long inner fastening straps around your body, fastening them together at the centre of your belly. Adjust if necessary, so the spikes are positioned correctly for you. The fit should be snug but comfortable.
4. Adjust the pressure of the spikes with the short outer pressure straps. It is easier to adjust both sides at the same time. Pull forward on the straps to stretch the elastic and secure for the desired pressure. You can attach them high or low on the belt to achieve the right amount of pressure for your back.
On your belly

HOW TO USE
Wear the band with the acupressure pad facing your back or your belly for as long as feels comfortable. To feel the full effect, we recommend wearing it for 15-30 minutes at a time.
Skin-to-spike contact is best. If you’re having trouble with the initial sensation, loosen the pressure by releasing the short outer pressure straps.
Experiment with deep breaths to increase pressure without refastening the straps.
Remove the acupressure pad for support without spikes. You can wear the band without the acupressure pad for as long as is comfortable.
It’s designed to be worn under clothes while standing, sitting, driving, and doing most daily activities. It is not recommended to be worn during vigorous exercise.
You may choose to adjust the band each time you wear it (when switching from back to belly or seated to standing) for the perfect fit.
