Here is a run through on some of the most advanced features being integrated by the top manufacturers of robotic massage chairs. Back Roller Massage: One of the basic technologies used in a robotic massaging recliners is the back roller massage mechanism. This system uses two, four or six rollers to perform a variety of movements. Movements can consist of kneading, tapping, rolling and a combination kneading and tapping.
Customer Reviews:
"I purchased this directly from the manufacturer and not through Amazon.This chair is great overall for its price.It is not feature packed like the really expensive massage chairs but it works well and I mostly use the "percussion" massage mode.I think the chair I received has a slightly stronger right side massage than left but that is probably just my chair and I am right handed anyways so its ok with me to loosen that side up more.
If you are anywhere above average male height 5'10" then you will think the rolls don't reach high enough.It does recline however so it can reach much taller people in height.

"I first tried the foot massage while on vacation and when I got home a bought one a few months later and it feels really good.When I was moving I need a chair and I wanted one that would swivel and when I saw this I new it was what i wanted.It would have been nice in a different color but it really does the trick and doe various form of massage or you can select the type you want and even where you want it.The other nice thing is the foot massager will plug into it so you only need to use 1 wall socket and there is a main power off switch if you are going to be away.When people come to visit and they see it I think they kind of roll their eyes and then once they try it they are ready to get one themselves.Especially when they find out that it does not cost that much more then a regular recliner would.

"This thing feels phenomenal on one's back, but sitting in it for an hour or more (like if you're typing or watching a movie) makes both my and my wife's butts hurt.Don't get it if you want to also use it as a regular arm chair, but do get it if you're only going to sit in it when you want a massage. " – SLB
Customer Reviews:
"My wife and I have found the chair very pleasant to use and helps keep our backs flexible. Like all good things too much can make you sore, which was real tempting, but not a problem. With the Amazon rebate and special Friday only price it was a real deal for the money.We also like the fact that it doesn't take up a lot of floor space.Some of those massage chairs are more like a sea captains chair, this one doesn't. " – S. Russell

Customer Reviews:
"I cannot say enough about this chair.Nothing is better after a long day at work than a relaxing massage.Although the wife is willing to every now and then, I could never ask her for a massage daily...I have had this about a year now and couldn't be happier with the product.While not quite as good as a real human massage, it still gets the kinks out and leaves you feeling relaxed.You won't regret this purchase!

"This was an x-mas gift for my wife, she loves it and uses it daily!
It helps with restless leg syndrome! Great gift, relaxing. " – Carl Anderson "Carl"
Customer Reviews:
"I have owned one for three years and just bought my second one without a thought of even looking at anything else. An oldie but a goodie! The people at the Inada office in the US told me that this was the single best selling massage chair model of all time in the world. I believe it! From my own experience, this is a pretty bullet proof piece of exceptional Japanese engineering. The massage quality is really really really good, especially if you know a little about massage chairs and can compare the difference for yourself. " – Lee
Customer Reviews:
"This is the best massage chair I have tried.I have minor scoliosis in my neck area and have chronic muscle knots in my shoulders/neck because of it.So getting regular massages & stretches is a must.One of my favorite features is the stretch feature that I've never seen in the other chairs.It also comes with an additional pad if you want to soften the massage.My family & friends have commented how they wouldn't have known it was a massage chair because it has the look of a regular recliner.So it blends in nicely with my living room furniture.
There are two reasons I didn't give this chair 5 stars.The first is because, if I could add a feature to it, I would add a heating element to it.The second reason is because even though this chair gives a good massage...nothing can substitute for a real massage.This chair comes the closest that I've seen to achieving that goal, though.

Air Massage System: Many manufacturers are integrating air massage systems into their recliners. These systems used compressed air to inflate specially designed airbags. The flexibility of this technology allows the airbags to be contoured to different parts of the body. These are especially effective for massaging the larger muscles of the body.
Foot Reflexology Massage: One of the hottest new features is an integrated foot reflexology massage. A number of technologies are used to stimulate the trigger points on the soles of your feet. This helps to relax the major organs located throughout your body. A firm foot massage is also given to relieve tension, aches and discomfort in the feet.

Heating Elements: Another very therapeutic treatment is the use of heat. Heat is used to reduce swelling and to improve blood circulation to a particular part of the body. Heating elements are located in strategic areas of the chair. These can be activated and targeted as needed.
MP3 Music Player: One of the more important elements of massage is to relax your mind. The most effective means of doing so is with soft, rhythmic music. Many massage chairs now have integrated MP3 players and headphones. This makes it easy for you to relax your mind, thus making the massage more effective.
Shiatsu Massage Therapy: Shiatsu is a famous massage technique. It uses a variety of different movements to provide both invigoration and relief. Massage chairs utilize a number of different technologies and features to provide a shiatsu massage. This involves the use of body scanning technology, sophisticated software and a range of mechanical massage movements.
Traction Systems: Traction is a common way to gently stretch out the muscles of the body. Massage chairs now incorporate many advanced traction or stretching systems. These systems can stretch out the lower body, the upper body and the spine. A variety of technologies and software programming is used to deliver these different stretching techniques.
Vibro Systems: One of the earliest systems integrated into massage chairs is vibration. Vibration is an effective means to penetrate deeply through tight muscles. It is very relieving for the feet, the buttocks, thighs and parts of the back. The use of vibration motors continues and now they have become more targeted to specific areas.
