Can you use Purple Mat with clothes on or does it require direct contact with the skin?

The mat is multifunctional. For far-infrared heat, crystal rays, negative ions, and PEMF, you may use the mat either with clothing or without — whichever is more comfortable. Natural fabrics such as cotton or bamboo are preferred.

Your mat includes a waterproof protector and a 3-D air-mesh pad to cushion the surface and make it more comfortable while your body is getting used to the pressure of the stones. Later, once you feel comfortable, these can be removed during sessions, and only the waterproof cover can be kept on the mat for protection and storage.

The mat also has a red-light LED (photon) function. You can still use it while wearing clothes and using protectors, but most of the visible red light will be blocked. To receive the fullest benefit from this function, it is best to use the mat bare.

It’s usually better to do this only after you have become accustomed to the stone pressure and can stay on the mat comfortably for at least 20 minutes without extra cushioning.
