A Human Touch massage chair can be a wonderful investment for your physical,Many Massages in One Human Touch Massage Chair Articles mental and emotional health. A regular massage has been shown to be beneficial in all these areas of life, so having a chair in your home, in which you can enjoy a daily massage, can be really great. But there are so many chairs on the market, how do you choose which one is best for you? Obviously, there are many factors that we can look at, but today let's just ask the question, what parts of your body do you want to have massaged by your Human Touch massage chair? They are not just for backs! Here are some of the massage features available on their chairs.


Back massage - this is the most obvious massage location and one that all chairs offer as their primary function. The main thing to be aware about the basic back massage is that you can receive different types of massage techniques on your back so not all chairs will be the same. These techniques include rolling, kneading. compression, percussion or a combination of kneading and percussion at the same time. Most chairs will offer more than one type of massage, so you just have to decide what types you want.


If you like, you can get a Human Touch massage chair that also offers heat to your lower back. Heat is a great way to help your muscles relax  which can lead to a more effective massage. Heat is also a great treatment to help relieve back pain.


Feet and calves - If you are on your feet all day, then your Human Touch massage chair should have a foot and calf unit. On these units, your calves and feet rest in the unit and the massage is applied through air bags that create an upward rolling sensation as the bags apply and release pressure. This is done to help force blood away from your feet and towards the core of your body which allows fresh, nutrient rich blood to circulate through your lower extremities. Besides the compression massage, some chairs also offer multi-speed vibration on the feet, which not only feels really good on tired feet but also further enhances your circulation.


These units are stored in different ways. Some massage chairs have the calf and foot unit that retracts into the base, other are just always open, but the ones that I like best look just like a regular recliner. However, the regular, flat leg rest can rotate to expose the calf and foot rest massage unit.


Seat massage - yes, to put it politely, the seat massages your gluteus and hamstring muscles using numerous air bags that inflate and deflate. This may be good if you sit all day, versus stand all day. It helps to increase blood flow in your legs that may pool by sitting too long and can even help prevent blood clots in your legs.


Arm massage - a couple of the Human Touch massage chairs offer arm massage sleeves. These handy little units are adjustable, you just slip your arm in and enjoy the massage of the air bags. These will adjust large enough to also use on your thighs to massage your quads, and then can be stowed away when not in use.


Remember, some chairs offer the full deal, others only offer some of these massage features. So consider the various massages available and this will help you to choose the Human Touch massage chair that best suits your needs.
