As Dr Alan Weidner at massage-chair-relief.com comments (and we are pleased to echo his thoughts), we always ensure that the customer is content with the product. We thoroughly recommend Dr Alan Weidner's video "Cheap v Premium Massage Chairs" ( massage-chair-relief.com/blog/cheap-vs-premium-massage-chairs). We thought it would be boring to anyone else rather than us when we first saw this video! Most of us are only interested in the car's shape rather than what's under the bonnet. We believe that you will be amazed by the contents and how the chassis of the cheap massage chair compares to a premium model.

Niichi's youngest daughter, Kazumi, suffered severely from Myofascial pain syndrome in her shoulder muscles or, in layman's terms, "knotty" shoulders. Daily, Niichi and his wife used to massage their daughter's shoulders in a concerted effort to relieve her pain. They then had a "lightbulb moment" and created an automation that Kazumi could use herself when her parents were at work. The Rotai Ultimate (Dual-Core) RT8900 comfortably fits users from 5ft to 6.4ft. There are very few chairs that are designed for users over 6''4". However, users can adapt to the chair's restrictions and still get a great massage. We have found very few potential customers where we have had to say that perhaps chair is "not for them". It's not called the Rotai Ultimate for nothing! All massage chair models have a recommended height and weight limit. Some chairs do not easily fit users over 6ft very well, while others are not great for shorter frames. What comes to my mind are the shoulder airbags and hip airbags that we see on many chairs nowadays. For example, if you are a broad-shouldered or broad-chested male, you may not fit well in a chair with a less forgiving distance between the shoulder airbags. These shoulder airbags fit in a rigid, durable housing that does not give at all. If your shoulders are so broad that you cannot fit your chest between the shoulder airbag housings on each side of the chair, that chair will not work for you.

Dr Weidner mentions, "In all the years I've been involved in the massage chair industry, it was always commonly accepted and known that the Japanese made the best quality massage chairs. After all, Japan is the "fountainhead" of massage chairs, where they were invented and have been produced since the 1950s. Manufacturing of massage chairs began in China some years later because of lower production costs. Nowadays, most massage chairs are being manufactured in mainland China. Of course, there are still some "Japanese-made" chairs. Many components are manufactured in China and then exported to Japan, where the chairs are assembled, tested, and programmed. They are then exported to other countries and dubiously labelled as "Made in Japan". I am not aware at the time of writing any massage chair that is 100% "Made in Japan". Although the component production is in China, and many Chinese factories build great components, the secret to superior massage chairs is quality control testing, something the Japanese have a fabulous reputation for."

When looking for your first massage chair, you will discover two significant factors to consider to ensure that you get a quality chair that will last you for years to come. They are: So, to add further mystery to who actually invented the modern Massage Chair, we have to bring Nobuo Fujimoto of Osaka into the frame. Both versions are suspiciously similar insofar that Nobuo worked in the public baths in Japan, and he apparently also wished to devise a mechanical way to massage his clients. We are no less convinced that Mr Fujimoto may have also been the inventor or joint inventor. Don't expect any heavy salesman because we do not have any. All we will do is demonstrate the chair and answer all of your questions. We will also throw in a sandwich, tea and coffee! The only salesman will be you.Kawahara was a factory manager specialising in sewing machine parts. His first model was inspired by the technology he had gained through his employment. It mattered not that the chair's design couldn't have been any more basic, vertical and somewhat uncomfortable without any cushioning, not least it was handmade of floorboards. His automation managed to home in on the exact trigger points causing Kazumi so much pain, and she was able, for the first time, to leave the house and play with friends. The same goes for chairs that claim to be"Made in Korea" or "Made in Singapore". The components are made in China, but assembly, testing, and programming (may or may not) be done in Korea or Singapore. Also, if you have a large pelvis/hip area, you may not fit as well in a chair with hip airbags that take up a significant portion of the seat width. When finding a chair that fits you well, be aware of these two things. With the Touchscreen, You’re in Control. An all-new touchscreen control panel with pre-programmed massage sessions that make sophisticated use of the chair’s advanced mechanics. The chair also includes a convenient built-in wireless phone charger plus surround-sound wireless Bluetooth speakers that connect to the user’s own music player. You may fit fine within the recommended height and weight restrictions of the chair you want. Still, the shape of your body, i.e., the girth of your body, may not be a good match for the chair you are looking at.

The Rotai Ultimate is probably the heaviest and best-built massage chair currently being marketed. The Rotai Ultimate has a weight restriction of 120kg (19 Stone). The chairs have weight restrictions because the guts may break down if the strain on the components is too much. So long as you keep the weight restrictions in mind, there is no reason it will not give you 12/15 years or more of great use. It does not mean that you cannot sit in the chair if your weight is above the recommended restriction; it simply means that the chair's working lifespan is likely to be dramatically less than you will expect if you keep within limits. Rotai UK will not sell a massage chair online. We will tell you blatantly whether the Rotai Ultimate chair is for you or not. The Rotai Ultimate is definitely not to everybody's liking. This chair is not for you if you simply want a gentle massage. While it can give a relatively gentle massage, its real value is to those who want to feel that the massage has been therapeutically beneficial. When you are making such a significant investment, it is essential that you not only have the chance to sit in the chair to ensure that it fits appropriately but to spend an hour or two with us so we can show you every single function. Total-Body Airbag Massage. Built into the chair are 50 airbags that rhythmically inflate and deflate for an amazing total-body massage treatment. And in the extendable leg rest, airbags target calf, feet, and even ankle muscles to relieve tension and improve circulation.
