ZpikesTape is an elastic nylon tape with a hemisphere that provides constant acupressure. The product is water-resistant, hypoallergenic, skin-friendly, breathable and easy to apply. ZpikesTape is easy to apply (see application video) when you press down on the point it feels tender and good-painful. ZpikesTape can be used for 22 hours straight and we recommend that you stimulate the point regularly for increased effect. Some experience an immediate effect, while others have to use up to 4 applications before they notice an improvement. Some experience a strong pain-relieving effect and others experience that it only takes the peaks. ZpikesTape is made for those who want a side effect-free solution for pain relief, relaxation (sedating) and increased sleep quality . For those who struggle with long-term pain, it is important to consider the side effects that come with traditional painkillers. Non-medicinal measures to regulate and calm the nervous system, and reduce pain are therefore very important.

Acupressure works by stimulating peripheral nerves and connective tissue that release transmitters that have an effect on the central and autonomic nervous system. The central nervous system is activated and releases chemicals and neurotransmitters such as endorphins and serotonin to the spinal cord, muscles and brain. The resulting biochemical changes affect the body's homeostatic mechanisms, and can promote physical and emotional well-being, as well as relaxation and pain relief.

Acupressure is a 3000 year old well-known treatment method and is probably the oldest medical system we know of. It is based on traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture (acupuncture penetrates the skin, acupressure is pressure on the skin). In the past, this pressure has been applied using his or her fingers. With ZpikesTape you get constant pressure.

Place the hemisphere toward the point (Li4) between your thumb and forefinger (application video below). Always apply ZpikesTape on both hands. Repeated stimulation towards the acupuncture increases the experience. Maximum length per application is 22 hours, with a minimum of 2 hours break. By applying ZpikesTape prophylactically or after stress / restlessness, muscle tension / pain has occurred, the body can relax and calm down. By applying ZpikesTape 1 hour before bedtime, you can fall asleep faster and sleep deeper so that you wake up 100% rested.
