Shakti Mat
We're Shakti - the original acupressure brand that made laying on spikes a thing. Since 2007, we've been perfecting our craft to bring you the gold standard of acupressure awesomeness. Shakti is a small but mighty social-impact company, born and raised in the vibrant Berlin start-up scene. Just like our home city, we deeply care about diversity, inclusion and living our values. We march to the beat of our own drum and embrace those ‘new-work’ vibes: - Work from anywhere. We went fully remote way before it was cool (6 months pre-pandemic!). Trailblazing? Nah, just following our hearts. - Love your side-hustle. Most of our team rocks a 32-hour work week so they can chase their passion-projects outside of Shakti. You do you. - Flexibility is our middle name: We work when we want, how we want. Because… life. - Grow with us: We offer paid volunteering time and invest in our team’s professional and personal growth - both in and out of the Shakti universe. - Cycle celebration. Our menstruating team members get an extra self-care day off each month. It's 2024, period. Why we do what we do: Let's be real - the world is a wild ride right now. And the wellbeing of the world starts at home, with us. Those ancient Indian Ayurvedic arts are full of wisdoms and wellness hacks that are game-changers for our modern Western lives. Our mission? To get them into your hands and empower your self-care. We craft the finest acupressure goods around. Straight from the source in India, the birthplace of acupressure. But we don't stop there - we pay it forward by supporting our craft communities in many creative and meaningful ways. Because creating award-winning wellbeing products is one thing, but lifting up the people who make them? That's the Shakti way.
