FAQ - Answers to your questions about fatigue reduction
Everything you need to know to optimise your energy before, during and after exercise.
Can I use the mattress topper when travelling?
Absolutely, the Terra Lite-Mat nomad mattress topper is specifically designed for travelling. Weighing just 400g, it's compact and easy to carry. It adapts to all environments (hotels, refuges, etc.). You have several options for connecting to the ground when travelling:
○ Use an earthed plug adapter
○ Outdoors, connect the cable directly to a metal rod in the ground
○ Attach the plug end to a metal tap
Even without an earth connection, the mattress topper will continue to reflect infrared back to the body, although the full effect of Minoxis technology requires earthing.
How do I use the IAKOTA mattress topper?
To use the IAKOTA mattress topper correctly, place it on your usual mattress. Then plug it into an earthed electrical socket. You can either sleep directly on it, or use a thin sheet between you and the mattress topper (prefer natural materials such as cotton or linen). For optimum effectiveness, use it every day. If you don't have an earthed socket, you can :
- Outdoors: connect the cable directly to a metal rod planted in the ground
- At home without a suitable plug: attach the plug to a metal tap (taps must be earthed).
Can the IAKOTA mattress topper be used on any mattress?
Yes, IAKOTA mattress toppers are designed to fit all types of mattress. We offer two models:
Both models use our patented Minoxis technology and are suitable for all sleeping surfaces, whether they are sprung, foam, latex or memory foam mattresses.
- The nomad mattress topper Terra Lite-Mat (400g) is ultra-light and fits easily on any sleeping surface, making it ideal for travel.
- The comfort mattress topper is thicker and more padded, offering a cosier experience. Although heavier, it is designed primarily for stationary use at home, where it adapts perfectly to any type of mattress.
What is the difference between the IAKOTA mattress topper and a conventional earthing mattress?
The mattress topper IAKOTA differs from conventional earthing mats thanks to its patented technology Minoxis, which combines two mechanisms of action:
The studies carried out at National Centre for Altitude Training (CNEA) in Font-Romeu have shown that the IAKOTA mattress overlay provides up to twice the muscle recovery and better cardiovascular adaptation.
Our technology also stimulates blood microcirculation, speeds up the elimination of metabolic waste products and significantly improves the quality of life. heart rate variability (HRV).
○ Earthing (like traditional mats)
○ The reflection of infrared emitted by the body (exclusive technology)
What is the composition of the iakota recovery mattress topper?
The mattress overlay is made from a cotton fabric (140g/m²) on which we have deposited the technology. The black membrane on the front allows electrons to be exchanged between the skin and the overlay. On the back, the brown surface reflects the infrared rays emitted by the body like a mirror. This combination has significant positive effects on the central nervous system (sleep, recovery, relaxation), as well as healing and repairing tissue.
How can I maximise the effects of the IAKOTA mattress topper?
To maximise the effects of the IAKOTA mattress topper, follow these recommendations:
○ Use it regularly: daily use is recommended for optimum results.
○ Choose the right sheets: opt for fine sheets made from natural materials (cotton, linen, silk), which are better at allowing infrared rays to pass through and connect to the earth.
○ Make sure you are properly earthed: check that your electrical socket is properly earthed.
○ Track your progress: use a connected watch to measure changes in your VFC and resting heart rate.
○ Combine with other good practices: combine the use of the mattress topper with good sleep hygiene and a suitable recovery routine.
What are the expected effects of using a mattress topper?
The expected and documented effects of the mattress topper IAKOTA include :
○ Accelerated muscle recovery: faster return to the initial state after exercise, particularly effective for hamstrings and quadriceps
○ Improvement in cardiac parameters: reduction in resting heart rate and increase in cardiac variability (VFC)
○ Stimulation of the parasympathetic system: promotes the natural processes of recovery and regeneration
○ Deeper sleep: measurable increase in the duration of deep sleep
○ Reduced muscle pain and inflammation
○ Improved tissue healing
○ Better concentration and cognitive performance
○ Reduces oxidative stress
○ Decrease in heart rate
How do I clean the IAKOTA mattress topper?
The mattress topper IAKOTA can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
○ Avoid immersing it in water and never put it in the tumble dryer.
○ After cleaning, let it air dry naturally before using it again.
○ To preserve the effectiveness of the technology Minoxis, Avoid using aggressive chemical cleaning products.

How does infrared reflection improve muscle recovery?
The infrared rays naturally emitted by the body are captured and reflected by our Minoxis technology.
This process stimulates blood microcirculation, promoting the supply of oxygen to muscle tissue and the more efficient elimination of metabolic waste products.
This action improves muscle relaxation and naturally speeds up the recovery process.
What is MINOXIS technology and how does it work?
Patented technology Minoxis is based on two complementary scientific principles:
The synergistic effect of these two mechanisms produces benefits that are greater than the sum of the processes used separately, particularly in terms of tissue healing, reducing muscular pain, lowering oxidative stress and inflammation, reducing heart rate and increasing deep sleep.
○ Reflecting the body's infrared rays :
Captures and reflects the endogenous infrared rays (wavelength between 3 and 20 microns) emitted naturally by the human body. This process promotes blood microcirculation, muscle relaxation, improves tissue oxygenation and facilitates the elimination of metabolic waste.
○ Earthing the body :
Reproduces the natural phenomenon of electrostatic discharge via an earth connection, balancing the autonomic nervous system and preventing oxidative stasis.
Why is connecting to earth beneficial for recovery?
La earth connection (or earthing) balances the body's electrical charges by reproducing the natural phenomenon of electrostatic discharge.
This process helps to balance the autonomic nervous system and prevent oxidative stasis.
This connection allows the body to return to a more balanced electrical state, encouraging the natural processes of recovery and regeneration.
Documented benefits include:
○ Improvement in heart rate variability (HRV)
○ Reduced stress and inflammation
○ Better regulation of hormonal cycles
○ Improved immune response
Are there any scientific studies proving the effectiveness of IAKOTA products?
Yes, the products IAKOTA have been developed following a series of in-depth research and pilot studies carried out at the National Centre for Altitude Training (CNEA) in Font-Romeu.
A pilot study involving 27 athletes was carried out to assess the effectiveness of the mattress topper. This study compared three recovery conditions after intense physical effort:
○ Using the IAKOTA mattress topper
○ Control condition (standard mattress)
○ Use of specific clothing (recovery shorts)
The results showed that the IAKOTA mattress topper was more effective in several respects:
○ Accelerated muscle recovery, particularly for hamstrings and quadriceps
○ Improved cardiac relaxation
○ Stimulation of parasympathetic activity
○ Increased cardiac variability
What are the long-term benefits of regular use of IAKOTA products?
The long-term benefits vary depending on the products used, but generally include :
○ Better quality sleep
○ Optimised recovery (both physical and mental thanks to better sleep)
○ a reduction in chronic pain
○ an improvement in heart rate variability (HRV)
○ a reduction in oxidative stress
○ greater resilience in the face of daily stress
What are the signs that IAKOTA products work?
Signs of the effectiveness of IAKOTA products can be measured and felt in several ways:
○ Measurable improvement in HRV (Heart Rate Variability) with a connected watch
○ Decrease in resting heart rate
