According, to Tom Walls owner of The Modern Back you may want to think twice before buying a Massage Chair for a loved one. Finding the right massage chair is like getting fitted for a suit or pair of jeans that fits just right. Many massage chairs are made for the Asian market, so they aren’t all made for the American market’s taller sometimes larger body frames. Importers over the years have gotten wise which is why Titan chair came out with the Titan Pro Jupiter LE massage chair for taller & wider customers. The Titan Jupiter LE can accommodate heights up to 6’6” tall with a site width if 21.5”.   

Some massage chairs are also too big. A lady who is 5’2’ & only 120lbs for instance will feel a lot more comfortable in the Ogawa Master Drive massage chair which market with a seat width of 18’. The Ogawa Master Drive ottoman offers a leg extension, but it still fits quite snug for someone 6’1 or less. The Ador Ad-Infinix massage chair is another good one for those that have a smaller frame. Its smaller size makes it great for people even as short as 5’0. The Kumo & Infinix offer those a better fit in the shoulder area. For larger massage chairs, the shoulder airbags may not even give much of a massage to smaller individuals because they aren’t able to sometimes touch the body.  

There is also one other major factor which is massage chair strength. Some massage chairs like the Osaki Maestro LE offer very harder deeper massages. Someone who is super sensitive will need a softer more therapeutic massage chair. For someone who likes a more aggressive shiatsu massage, the Osaki Maestro LE will be a better gift than a massage chair that is soft & has lots of padding. All of these things need to be taken into consideration. In Tom’s opinion, it’s better not to surprise your loved one with a massage chair. Tell them you want to surprise them by secretly taking them to a local massage chair showroom and having them try out the massage chair before purchasing. Massage chairs can weigh up to 300+lbs & returns are not fun for anyone. 

The average human spends 24 years of their life sleeping. That is a pretty big percentage of our lives spent laying down on a mattress that could be good or bad for your back. Most people don’t consider the long-term effects of poor back health. A bad night’s sleep can lead to a lot of disruptions in our normal lives like feelings of being tired, unmotivated, and painful neck & back problems. One noticeable issue is that couples typically purchase the same mattress even though one person may feel more comfortable on a more plush or firmer mattress. Comfort is subjective and everyone’s body has different comfort levels.
