Shiatsu Massage Chairs - Benefits


Shiatsu Massage Chairs

A Shiatsu Massage Chair is a sophisticated electronic massage chair that provides the occupant of the chair with a beneficial shiatsu massage session. Shi, which means finger, and atsu, which means pressure, is a traditional massage therapy based on both anatomical and physiological considerations. In Japan, where shiatsu originated, it is recognized as a valid form of medical therapy; therefore, it is regulated and licensed by the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare.


Shiatsu Defined

In general terms, shiatsu is defined as a massage therapy using the fingers, thumb, and the palm of one hand to apply varying pressure in a continuous rhythmic motion to certain areas on the surface of the body. This is done with the idea that this technique, if performed properly, can promote health by correcting the imbalances of the body, thereby healing specific conditions and diseases.

Shiatsu massage therapy is believed to provide relief from a variety of maladies. Proponents of shiatsu have claimed that it has helped to ease everything from back pain to digestive problems; headaches to insomnia; anxiety to depression; and a host of other common health and well being issues. A number of well known celebrities of the past and present have relied on shiatsu massage techniques for maintaining their overall health.


Shiatsu Massage Chair Overview

The only way that a robotic massage chair can provide a proper shiatsu massage is when the chair is able to conform to size and shape of the person occupying the chair. Optical sensors must be incorporated into the design of the chair in order to pinpoint the pressure points on the body. This is necessary in order to provide a proper shiatsu massage treatment.  

The best robotic shiatsu reclining massage chairs include a wide range of popular standard features as well as a number of optional features. Often the most expensive chairs have a powered reclining capability. Cheaper models usually recline manually, similar to the traditional reclining chairs that you find in most furniture stores. In higher quality chairs, usually the degree of reclining angle is greater as well. Some high end chairs also include a heat feature for a warm, relaxing massage on those cold winter days. Many of the best massage chairs include generous warranties. A very important point to consider when shopping for a robotic shiatsu massage chair is to choose one that includes the best safety features, such as a child lock and an automatic shutoff.

Robotic massage chairs that incorporate shiatsu massage techniques are often quite expensive. Expect to pay several thousand dollars for a high quality robotic shiatsu reclining massage chair. Although the initial investment for a shiatsu massage chair may be high, the actual savings can be quite substantial. When you consider that a weekly shiatsu massage with a professional shiatsu massage therapist would cost you at least $5,000 a year, you can see that a price of $3,000 or more for a high quality robotic shiatsu massage chair is a wise investment. And, of course, when you own a robotic shiatsu massage chair, you are not limited to one shiatsu massage session a week. You can schedule your own appointment with your shiatsu massage chair whenever the time is convenient—and the massage session is provided in the privacy of your home or office.
