Q: How do I clean my Interflow Yoga mat?

However, if you want to give your mat a deep clean, simply wipe it down with a mixture of water and mild detergent or a specialized yoga mat cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Let it air dry completely before rolling it up with the cork side facing out.

Q: How does the mat perform during hot yoga or sweaty workouts?

A: Yes, Interflow Yoga mats are versatile and can be used for various types of exercise, including Pilates, stretching, and general fitness workouts. Their durable design ensures they can handle different types of activities.
Q: How is cork harvested, and how are cork yoga mats made?

Q: How are essential oils added to the mat, and can I change the oil used each time?
A: At Interflow Yoga, we offer specially formulated essential oils designed to work seamlessly with our mats. These oils come in a roll-on bottle and can be applied to the "Scent Burst" zones on the mat. These high-touch zones ensure you come into contact with the benefits of the oils as much as possible during your practice. You can change the oil used each time to suit your preference.
Q: What makes the "Scent Burst" zones special?
A: The "Scent Burst" zones are strategically placed in high-touch areas of the mat to maximize your exposure to the benefits of the essential oils. These zones ensure you enjoy the therapeutic effects of the oils throughout your practice.
Q: Why should I buy an Interflow Yoga mat, and how is it better than other mats?
A: Interflow Yoga mats offer superior grip, comfort, and sustainability. The natural cork surface provides a unique texture that improves grip as you sweat, making it ideal for hot yoga. The non-toxic, eco-friendly materials ensure a safe and sustainable practice, setting our mats apart from synthetic options.
Q: Why are biodegradable mats important for taking care of the planet?
A: Biodegradable mats, like those from Interflow Yoga, reduce environmental impact by decomposing naturally and avoiding pollution. To further our commitment to the planet, we plant a tree through One Tree Planted for every mat sold, contributing to global reforestation efforts.
Q: Why should I avoid using plastic-filled mats?
