Frequently Asked Questions
is it safe?
Yes. The nails have rounded tips, and your weight is spread across hundreds of nails. The pressure on each nail is enough to stimulate your feet, but too low to cause any harm.
does it hurt?
Yes, it does hurt. How intense it feels is different for everyone, depending on your pain threshold. The first 30 seconds are the most painful, then the pain slowly fades. If it gets too intense, you can step off at any time. Build up slowly, and don't force it.
how long and how often should i do this?
A full session is 5 minutes. If you're just starting out, build up gradually: begin with 30 seconds, then try 45 the next session, then 60, and so on. Practise at least a few times a week.
who shouldn't use it?
The Soma Board isn't for everyone. Please read the Safety section carefully.
