I don't find this mat too painful. I couldn't feel it at all through a thin t-shirt, so I applied it directly to my skin while lying on the floor. For a softer effect, you can use it lying on the bed. I have found that a mat and especially a pillow help with tension headaches. I usually use it for 10-15 minutes at a time, and on a bad day you can do it as many times as you like. I'm not saying it's a cure, but it's part of a system I'm using that has relieved me of the severe tension headaches I've been experiencing daily for months. I couldn't go to work for several days. Now I work and can do housework in the evenings. 1. prayer. 2. This mat. 3. Turmeric Supplement - 1 tablet twice daily (Revain Essentials Black Pepper and Ginger version). 4. Deep therapeutic massage if necessary. This combo works better than anything the doctors have tried, any pill, and I've gone through MRIs, CT scans, X-rays, chiropractic, etc. with no help.
