Buying a luxury massage chair can be a big commitment, and trying as many different brands and models can be the best way to find the massage chair that fits your wants and needs. Below we will give you our best tips on how to try out different massage chairs and pick the right model for you.
Trying the Chairs
The first thing to look at when you first try a new chair is the remote, does it look easy to use or quite complex. Some massage chairs will offer an extensive list of functions and buttons to press but the whole point of a massage chair is to create a relaxing environment. You don’t want to have the stress of which massage programme to choose when many of them will be performing similar or even the same function.
You also want your massage chair to be comfortable. Does the chair recline to the right angle for you? How many recline positions can the chair achieve? You want a chair that you can lie back in and relax but also sometimes you may just want to sit with your feet up and read a book while the chair gives you a shoulder & neck massage or a lower back massage.
Test the Massage Programmes
When trying out a massage chair a few minutes is simply not enough to determine if the chair is right for you. A typical massage chair programme is 10 to 15 minutes long and you will want to try 2 or 3 programmes before making your decision. Does the back rollers reach the right places? Is the massage as firm or as soft as you would like it? And if not, are you able to increase or decrease the intensity?
Speak to the Sales Staff
Each brand and model is different in its own unique way so ask the staff to explain any special features. Explain your reasons for buying the chair so they can suggest which massage chair might best suit your needs, for example are you buying the chair for relief of a specific ongoing issue or simply as a space to unwind and have a little personal time?
Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff is usually an indication of the quality and reliability of the brand(s) that each retailer offers. Do they explain the massage functions of the chair and explain the benefits to you?
How to Choose a Massage Chair Online
