The Belena Air Stretch Electronic Stretch & Massage Mat, currently priced at £89.99 on Yimbly (reduced from £129.99), has been described by shoppers as 'a great device' and 'super relaxing', with one user reporting significantly reduced back pain and an enhanced quality of life. An additional 10% discount is available with the code SUMMER10, bringing the price to £80.99.
How the Mat Works
The mat is designed to provide a yoga-inspired stretch for the shoulders, back and neck. It features 10 powered air chambers that inflate and deflate in sequence to gently move the body, along with an integrated heat function to add warmth during sessions.
Users can choose from four programmes – Flow, Energize, Twist and Stretch – and three intensity levels. Sessions can be set for 10, 20 or 30 minutes, allowing for a quick reset or a longer wind-down. The Stretch programme offers a deeper stretch, while Twist uses gentle rotational movements targeting areas like the hips, shoulders and lower back. Flow provides a continuous air-cushion massage, and Energize focuses on upper-body stimulation.
Shopper Reviews and Feedback
Shoppers have praised the mat for its relaxing effect. One wrote: "Great device, super relaxing." Another said: "At the end of the day, the mat is pure relaxation." A 60-year-old shopper who worked in an office for 35 years claimed the device made a noticeable difference to their back pain, stating: "I suffered from severe back pain, which was significantly reduced after just a few applications (of the device). I am sure that this mat will give me back a great deal of quality of life!"
Another shopper, whose sciatica had returned, said: "It's a great massage mat. I used it today because my sciatica came back again. After this massage, my pain was actually gone." They added: "I can recommend this massage mat to anyone who cannot go to physical therapy all the time or who has to wait too long for an appointment."
Practical Details and Considerations
The mat weighs 3.4kg and can be rolled up with an integrated carrying strap. When unfolded, it measures 117cm by 60cm, and the retailer says it can support users weighing up to 160kg. It is controlled via a remote, and its compact design allows for easy storage.
Manufacturer guidance recommends placing the mat on a flat, solid surface for proper inflation. Sessions should be limited to 30 minutes, with at least an hour between sessions and no more than three sessions a day. The mat is not a replacement for medical treatment; anyone with an injury or medical condition should consult a healthcare professional before use.
Some shoppers noted that the size may not suit everyone. One said it was "a bit too short but the function is there," while another verified buyer explained: "There is only one size fits all. For larger people, the mat is more half size." That shopper also raised concerns about the positioning of the air cushions, but added: "I've found the location for myself and it's actually having a positive effect."
