Chair Massage FAQs
A chair massage should give you similar benefits to a conventional massage, namely boosted blood circulation, lowered blood pressure and stress, and a feeling of relaxation. However, instead of working your full body, your masseuse will apply different massage techniques to alleviate tension in your back, shoulders, arms, hands, neck, and head.
As the name suggests, a chair massage is a massage that takes place on a chair, often on an ergonomically designed massage chair with your body facing in towards it. The massage itself tends to last for 15-20 minutes and works on relieving muscular tension in your back, shoulders, neck, arms, and head.
It depends what your physical limitations are: you’ll need to be able to sit in the specialist massage chair in order to have the massage, so if you can’t do this easily, then a chair massage probably isn’t for you. If, however, you can, then you’re likely to enjoy muscle tension relief and improved circulation in your back, shoulders, neck, head, and arms.
There’s no conclusive evidence that chair massages are effective, but many people do feel less anxious and up-tight after having one.
As the name suggests, a chair massage is a massage that takes place on a chair. It’s often carried out on an ergonomically designed massage chair with your body facing in towards it. It works by allowing your massage therapist to focus on relieving muscular tension in your back, shoulders, neck, arms, and head.
Chair massages focus on relieving muscle tension in your shoulders, back, neck, arms, and head. They provide relaxation and boost your circulation, too. In contrast, traditional massages work on the whole of your body. Both should leave you feeling relaxed, with reduced muscular tension, and boosted circulation.
Chair massages tend to involve a range of techniques including squeezing (compressing the muscles between the fingers), kneading (lifting muscles upwards in a circular motion), chopping (pounding muscles with the outer edge of the hand), pressure (applying firm compression to acupressure points), and gliding (long strokes).
