Question 1

1. What is a Sadhu Board?

Accepted Answer

A Sadhu Board is a handcrafted wooden board fitted with evenly arranged metal nails. Standing on it stimulates the reflex zones of the feet, promoting clarity, resilience, and deeper self-awareness. It combines principles of ancient nail standing practices, acupressure, and somatic coaching.

Question 2

2. Is it safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes—when used correctly and with awareness. The practice is not meant to cause injury. You may experience discomfort, tingling, or a warm rush of energy as your body adapts. This is part of the process. Bruising or small marks can happen, especially at the beginning, but open wounds or significant bleeding are not normal.

3. Who should not use a Sadhu Board?

Accepted Answer

Avoid nail standing if you have:
 • Severe or uncontrolled heart conditions
 • Circulatory issues (including varicose veins, thrombosis, or peripheral artery disease)
 • Neuropathy or loss of sensation in the feet (e.g. advanced diabetes)
 • Open cuts, wounds, skin infections, or recent foot surgery
 • Osteoporosis or other severe bone fragility conditions
 • Pregnancy (without professional guidance)
Children and elderly individuals should only use a board under professional supervision. Always consult a doctor if you are unsure.
