— and Why It Matters for Better Sleep
Acupressure is a gentle therapeutic technique rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It works by applying light pressure to specific points on the body that help regulate the nervous system, release tension, and calm the mind.
These points are located along pathways called meridians—the channels through which the body circulates energy and restores balance. When they are stimulated, the body naturally shifts into a state of relaxation.
The SOMO Sleep Mask is uniquely designed to stimulate the Yin Tang point, located between the eyebrows.
This point is known as the “Third Eye” calming point and is associated with:
Clinical studies suggest that activating the Yin Tang point increases parasympathetic nervous system activity — the body’s rest-and-recover mode — helping you transition from alertness to peaceful sleep more easily.
Unlike traditional sleep masks, the SOMO mask integrates the SOMOsphere™ Acupressure Pad directly into the eye-shade.
This soft, contoured support applies a gentle, sustained pressure to the Yin Tang point while you sleep — not too firm, not too light — just enough for the body to recognize it and relax in response.
You don’t have to “do” anything.
The calming effect happens naturally, while you fall asleep.

The Sport's detachable headband offers more adjustability for a customized fit. The Luxe's fixed headband creates a snug fit, that some describe as "a hug for your head."
Sport features a detachable retention band with attachment points located at the temples. Adjusting the band can add an inch (2.54 cm) in addition to its stretch. The smooth and seamless headband, with no buckles, overlapping segments, or pressure points that disrupt sleep, lays flat against the head no matter one’s sleeping position. The Sport tends to be better for side sleepers.
Luxe has an attached headband. It’s slightly thicker and more stretchy than the Sport, and is covered in a soft, ruched fabric.
Your choice between Sport or Luxe depends primarily on your preference for band style and adjustability.
Here’s a great article from Forbes Health contributor, Victoria Clayton. Some excerpts include:
Acupressure is another Traditional Chinese medicine tool that’s similar to acupuncture, but it’s noninvasive. Acupressure is a needle-free treatment that exclusively involves applying pressure to the skin.
Massage therapists and other bodyworkers might use acupressure points, but UCLA Health’s Dr. Ka-kit Hui says he also teaches patients how to use acupressure on themselves. “The most exciting thing about acupressure is that it’s an inexpensive, safe and simple form of self-care and self-healing,” says Dr. Hui. Acupressure devices also exist—for example, wristbands that stimulate acupressure points.
A small 2013 study looking at sleep problems in adolescents found that after six months of treatment with a wearable acupressure band (a Sea-Band, which is designed to put pressure on certain points in the wrist), participants experienced a significant increase in the quantity and quality of their sleep [7]. And a 2018 preliminary study in the Journal of Sleep Research found self-administered acupressure for adults suffering from insomnia produced promising results, though further research is warranted[8].

Everyone can likely benefit from going to sleep with an eye mask on. “Light impacts my sleep and there’s quite a bit of evidence to support that,” says WHOOP VP of Performance Kristen Holmes. “I wear a mask to filter out all the light and make it dark, dark, dark. To me, that’s been a game changer in terms of my sleep data. You spend more time in deeper stages of sleep and you’re just not interrupted by light, which is going to wake you up.” In particular, a sleep mask may be useful for anybody who:
Yes, our patented Sport adjustable head band eliminates pressure points, making it comfortable for any type of sleeper. Both masks are designed for optimal comfort no matter the sleep position.
The SOMO Sleep Fitness mask should fit comfortably and not be too snug, with the Yin Tang point centered between your eyebrows. The band should be positioned around your ears and is recommended to be placed higher around the back of your head.
No, the masks are designed to fit the contours of most adult faces and head shapes.
We don’t recommend bending it because of the location of the SOMOsphere Acupressure point. We’ve designed a carrying case to make it easy for you to store your mask, whether you’re home, work and/or while traveling.
We recommend machine washing as often as you feel is needed in cold water on Delicate cycle in a mesh delicates bag. Air or line dry only. Do not iron.
There’s extensive research citing the benefits of wearing a mask, first and foremost, it’s light blocking - light is truly the enemy of sleep. The basic premise of a sleep mask is very simply to block any light from reaching your eyes. Exposure to light when you’re trying to sleep confuses your circadian rhythm, the body’s 24-hour internal clock that regulates sleep patterns.
