massage chairs

Motorized relaxation seats

Massage chairs are motorized seats equipped with mechanisms that knead, roll, or vibrate to simulate massage therapy.

They range from simple vibrating pads to elaborate recliners with multiple settings targeting different body zones.

Found in malls, airports, and homes, they offer temporary relief from muscle tension: I spent ten minutes in the massage chair at the mall.
