Sufficient free space

Before you buy a massage chair, you should look at how much free space you have available. A massage chair requires enough space so that its function is not restricted. For example, some massage chair models offer a reclining function, which increases the area used. Therefore, pay attention to the size of the armchair and measure the space at home carefully to ensure that it adapts optimally to your living area.

Different massage techniques

Most high-quality massage chairs not only offer different massage styles, but can also do more than “just massage your back”. Many full body massage chairs offer a leg and foot massage function, and some chairs can even massage arms and hands. These targeted massage options are usually carried out using airbags, massage heads or rollers distributed throughout the chair.

Different massage programs

Most massage chairs have between 3 and 30 pre-programmed massage options. These offer a unique, timed massage that targets specific areas of the body. The more advanced massage chairs usually have body scanning technology, which checks the reactions of different areas of the body and adjusts the massage accordingly.

The more automatic programs a massage chair has, the less repetitive the massage experience is. The programs can even be combined or customized. A wealth of options ensures that no two massages are the same!

Ratio of price and performance

The price-performance ratio should be fair in any case. Massage chairs, with various massage and additional functions, are of course associated with corresponding acquisition costs.

Proper care of your massage chair

If you have already bought a massage chair, you will definitely want to enjoy your chair for a long time. To ensure this, proper care is required. Caring for a massage chair doesn't require much effort and is quick and easy.

Most massage chairs have a cover made of genuine leather or high-quality faux leather. In both cases, cleaning with a damp cloth can be carried out easily. However, use a slightly coarser material here or do not scrub in one place for too long, otherwise the material may show signs of wear. This also applies to cleaning products that contain alcohol or are generally “harsh”. These cleaning agents can damage the surface and make the material porous.

Cleaning with a soft cloth and clear water is usually highly recommended. In this way, dust or light dirt can be easily removed. There are special cleaning and care products for leather massage chairs.
