A support apparatus in the nature of a mattress, seating or floor mat comprises means defining an array of pressure points for the application of pressure to parts of a human body resting on the support member. The said means are connected together to form a layer which is covered by a cover. The pressure points are preferably defined by bead members (14) and the support apparatus is advantageously flexible. A plurality of magnets may be disposed between the bead members. The beads (14) may be provided with through holes and linked together by strings (16) of thread, nylon or steel wire. Alternatively the beads may be adhered to a sheet member by adhesive. The beads may be made of wood, plastics or rubber. A layer of cushioning material, e.g. foam rubber, may be provided between the layer of beads and the cover. <IMAGE>
