Massage Chairs - Full Body Massage Chair For Home Use

Forms of body massage have been around for centuries, providing the same benefits all this time. Of course, over time the practice has evolved and developed to now being a regular part of many of our routines.

Despite massage chairs being around for some time, many people are still sceptical owning one as it can be a very difficult task to mimic the movements and skills of a human - but those days are now behind us. At Sleep.8 we are now proud to offer advanced high-end massage chairs that will deliver the expected benefits and relaxation.

But are massage chairs any good? Do they do more – or less – than a professional massage therapist? We’ve listed below the benefits of these chairs, what to look out for, and what information you'll need when looking to purchase one.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR

There are many positive reasons for owning a full-body massage chair at home. While the results may vary depending on each individual’s physical condition, how often the recliner is used and other factors, the most known common health benefits include:

• Reduced muscle pain & tension
• Fewer headaches
• Lowered cortisol levels
• Lowered blood pressure
• Lowered stress levels
• Improved mood and muscle recovery
• Improved relaxation
• Increased immune functionality
• Improved sleep quality and duration

Although you can use your massage chair as often as you like, some content recommends not using the devices more than 4 times a week to avoid bruises, fatigue or inflammation that can come with excessive treatment. If you’re looking to understand your recommended usage, seeking professional advice is recommended. General, one session of 10 to 15 minutes with the massagers should be sufficient to deliver your desired benefits to your shoulders, back, and legs.

Some people like to relax completely in their massage chairs by closing their eyes and enjoying the movements, others like to watch TV during their session. This is totally up to you; experiment and tailor your perfect massage session!

If you’re subject to high spikes of stress or have an intensive physical job, you may benefit from owning a massage chair at home. It is important to prioritise recovery whenever you have spare time. Luxury products like a massage chair are known to expand your lifespan, clear your mood and help you feel active for longer in the day.

If you’re considering a shiatsu massage chair, it’s important to remember that because of their heavy features, a full-body massage chair will occupy significant space in your living room or office. You will have to dedicate an area for it to take up, plus extra room around it if your model has a reclining feature. You should also consider the power it needs to operate - massagers can vary from 160 Watts to 300 Watts, an additional cost on your electricity bill to bear in mind along with the product price and delivery.

Just like any furniture, there’s a level of maintenance needed to keep your massage chair pristine. Make sure to know your options to find help if your chair needs services. Does your supplier offer a guarantee or home visits to repair your chair if something goes wrong, or would a certified electrician be enough? It’s important to consider these questions if you’re looking to invest.

So, are you ready to experience the joy of a private, on-demand, full-body massage therapy at home? Below is a comparison of the 2 full-body massage chairs available in our online and physical stores.
