WHY BUY A MASSAGE CHAIR?
There are many obvious reasons to have a massage chair in your home. Most purchase a massage chair to enjoy the many health benefits that it provides. But did you also know that purchasing a massage chair can save you money? That’s right, if you think about it, an average visit to a massage therapist would cost about an average of $60-$120 an hour. If you were to go the recommended 1-2 times a week (you do the math), it can get pretty expensive.
However, if you were to purchase a massage chair it could be paid off in just 1 year and every massage after that will be free! What else is even better than saving money? You’ll have the ability to enjoy a massage in the comfort and privacy of your own home. How convenient, to have a daily massage without even having to get ready or even leave your home!
WHICH MASSAGE CHAIR IS BEST FOR ME?
Though of course we recommend our massage chairs, we want you to feel confident in your purchase and know for yourself exactly why to buy from us. When you compare massage chairs and search for the one that will be in your home and used daily, you’ll want to consider the various options you have. Below are some of the things that you should think about when looking for a full body massage chair.
WHAT ELSE SHOULD I CONSIDER?
Features
Before beginning your search for the massage chair to fit your needs it is best to understand the most important features to look for. Below is a list that we have put together to give you a better understanding of these features and the benefits that they provide.
Body Scan Technology
Does the massage chair have body scan technology? Any good quality massage chair will include a body scan program to scan your body for your height, width, and placement in the chair. Each session will then be catered to you and your specific muscle areas.
Massage Techniques
When getting a massage there are several techniques that a professional massage therapist uses, and it is important that the massage chair that you choose has the massage strokes below at the very least: Kneading, Swedish, Tapping, Shiatsu, Clapping and Rolling.
Massage Customization
Can you easily make adjustments to the massage? Does it have settings to adjust the strength and speed of the massage, and the intensity of the massage? Does the massage chair come with removable padding? You should be able to adjust your massage chair in order to be sure that you are comfortable during massage sessions.
Zero Gravity Recline
Zero Gravity technology in a massage chair places you in a position that makes you feel weightless, taking all of the pressure off of your spine, and automatically relaxing your body. Even paying for a massage with a massage therapist cannot give you the added benefits of Zero Gravity, which is why we recommend that your massage chair have this important feature. Read more about the benefits here.
Air Compression Massage
Most full body massage chairs have some type of air compression massage. This is a feature that uses air cells to inflate providing a compression massage. At the very least you want compression for the hamstrings, calves, and feet.
Foot Massage
With so many Americans suffering from some kind of foot pain or soreness it is very important to have a massage chair with a good foot massage. It should have some type of air compression combined with acupressure nodes or foot rollers.
Warranty
The main thing to look for in the warranty is the length of the in-home period. Make sure to find a company that offers at least 1 year of in-home service. More importantly is the reputation of the company, and are they going to be there when you need warranty service.
Reputable Brand
Be sure that you purchase your massage chair from a company dedicated to excellence in both their products and their ability to support you and your new chair after the purchase. There are many companies that pop up every year offering low prices claiming they can beat any price because they are selling direct. Be cautious of these companies and make sure that the company you purchase from has a respectable track record.
