Review of the Get-A-Way RMS-15 Massage Chair by Human Touch

This massage chair has effectively combined the function of a superior massage tool and the look of an attractive piece of furniture. It will cater to the most discriminating pain sufferer and interior decorator!. Only the finest of leather is used, covering a versatile and aggressive mechanical massage therapist.

This chair uses the reputable Human Touch technology, simulating a human massage therapist working the most tense area of your back. The massage track is curved with exaggeration, to follow the natural course of a healthy spine, therefore promoting proper posture – which, in turn, helps maintain normal disc space and joint health. From top to bottom, the massage track measures 27.5 inches, working from the base of your neck to your pelvis. Quad (4) rollers effectively relieve the most common areas of tension and pain, the width adjustment of the rollers allowing you to determine where the most intense ‘knots’ are located.

You can also inflate or deflate the air pressure in the back to customize the intensity according to your own sensitivity and preferences. The technology of the air pressure massage is one of the quietest in the industry.

With the ability to customize your own session with 5 different methods of massage, including kneading, compression, percussion, vibration, and combination variance (as well as being able to choose 3 different speeds) you feel satisfied that you are getting the massage you truly want. But to make things easy and carefree for you, there are also pre-set programs that allow you to just sit down and melt away your pain and stress with the press of a button. Each pre-set session is different yet still designed to relieve stress and pain most effectively according to the specific pattern it follows.

Reclining from 115 to 175 degrees, the massage rollers in the back will help stretch and traction, assisting to relieve pain and pressure in the low back, the most common area of back pain.

The separate ottoman is dual in its function, allowing for a comfortable foot rest, as well as a functioning massaging ottoman. The top manually opens to expose dual rollers on each side to comfortable place your calves or feet into for an invigorating massage. It is entirely separate from the chair, leaving no hazardous cords to trip over. But despite it being a separate piece, it is operated by satellite function using the same remote, eliminating the inconvenience of two remotes.

Other users can enjoy the ottoman as well, not just the person sitting in the recliner. So put this ottoman anywhere in the room, and perhaps offer your guest a comfortable foot massage while you enjoy a relaxing back massage, though it’s not likely you’ll want to share any part of your pampering!

The overall function of this chair is simple, eliminating confusing technology and excessive program variances. But in that respect, it is also limited by not containing as many bells and whistles that other chairs may have. So if you prefer to keep your life simple, at the same time getting cozy and being pampered, then grab the ergonomically slim, easy-to-use remote, and relax away.

Effective Massage In A Massage Chair

Most people have never used a massage chair and have no idea how they function. They have been around for years and are very sophisticated machines in the form and shape of an arm chair. Many of them are produced in Japan. It is really great to just sit in the chair and get the massaging.

Inside the chair there are a number of motors, often 4-6, and a computer program that runs the program you choose. The whole body can be massaged within 20 minutes, sometimes less and sometimes more.

What kind of massage can you get? Let me give you some examples.

Air arm massage is a feature on some massage chairs. This is especially great to relieve weariness from the arms which are working restlessly for operation of a personal computer or a cellular phone, during works, domestic chores, leisure and so forth. The air massage mechanism is provided on the armrest and it will move naturally with the change of the body angle caused by the reclining movement. In this way the stiffness and strains in the wrists and back of hands will be relaxed thoroughly.

Depending on how the backrest is set, the function of the arm massage will work differently. The backrest can be in an upright position, slightly reclined and completely collapsed.

The air massage option is also available for the lower part of your legs. It massages with repeating cycles of compression of the muscles in an oblique direction and releasing. This stimulation assist an important function, to return the blood to the heart.

As the shape and form of our bodies differ it is vital for a good massage chair to have the option the adjust for that. Now there are chairs that automatically scans the persons body and use the data collected to change the tools, often small wheels that role and push, inside the massage chair.

Movements of hands and whole arms are reproduced to realize complicated and stereoscopic kneading up and kneading down massage. There are even more complex functions added in some programs of a massage chair. For example a function that combines the stretch massage, which resembles pressing with hands to push up first and then down, with the simultaneous application of the kneed, tapping and wavelet.

The most common functions of massage chairs are vibrations in the seat and backrest. Pleasant intermittent vibrations can be enjoyed simultaneously with the massaging. It promotes blood circulation and relieves strain from muscles.

What is the price of a massage chair? As always it depends on the functionality you want but prices range from just over $1,000 USD up to $8,000 USD. Many companies buy or rent a chair and have it for the personal. This is appreciated as a very efficient way to help the staff to stay healthy. There are studies showing that the number of sick-days will go down considerably when the massage chair has been installed.

An usual effect when a new chair is installed is that people will line up and try the massage. A schedule is almost always required and many use it frequently to get rid of the problems a stressful work situation sometimes creates.
