Chair Massage FAQs
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.
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.
The massage itself tends to last for 15-20 minutes, although some chair massages last for up to 30 minutes. If you’re having an office based chair massage, the duration of your massage depends on what your employer has agreed.
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.
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.
You’ll sit on an ergonomically designed massage chair with your body facing forwards into the chair itself. This allows your massage therapist to massage out tension that’s built up in your back, shoulders, neck, arms, and head. If you have an area that you’d like worked on a little more, tell your therapist before they begin your massage.
