Endorsed by the American Chiropractic Association panasonic massage loungers are the first chairs to be approved by the American Chiropractic Association (ACA), the largest professional association in the world representing doctors of chiropractic.
In fact, this distinction represents the first massage chair endorsement given by the ACA. Recognizing the many health benefits of regular massage, the ACA found that Panasonic massage chairs provide outstanding deep-tissue
relief, which can temporarily relax tense muscles, offering an ideal complement to chiropractic manipulation.
This top of the line Panasonic massage chair is truly the most complete chair, massaging from neck, outer shoulders down to the feet.
First, massage chairs can be portable, whereas massage tables are stationary for the most part. Portable tables do exist, but are not as common as portable chairs. Massage chairs let you to be multi tasking or just watch TV or talk all you want or engage on a conversation or just pull it in patio and enjoy fresh air. Finally, when you give a massage with a massage chair, you will not have to bend over quite as far as you will with a table.
Benefits of Massage Chairs
Massage chairs have many benefits over massage tables. They are far more portable than tables. Whether you are visiting a local fair or taking your business into corporate offices or malls, you can do this so much easier with a massage chair.
Also, massage chairs allow you to give a massage to someone while they are fully clothed. Some patients are uncomfortable removing their clothing for a massage, even though you handle the massage as a trained professional. With a massage chair, this is no longer an issue.
You will not have to bend over as far when you use a massage chair. This can make it easier on your back to give the massage. Sometimes bending over the massage table creates strain on your back, and this is limited somewhat with a massage chair.
Limitation of Massage Tables
Massage tables also have some benefits but one big note is worth to mention here that that have to remove clothing’s for a detail massage.
Some massage chairs, particularly portable ones, do not hold up well under the repeated strain that comes from multiple clients. Keep in mind that you may have some clients that are overweight, and your massage apparatus needs to be able to withstand this weight. Massage tables, particularly permanent ones, tend to be sturdier and can handle the stress of repeated usages much better than chairs.
Massage tables are made out of one main surface. This makes them easier to disinfect between clients. There are fewer crevices and folds in a massage table than in a massage chair.
Special Types of Massage Chairs
If you decide that massage chairs are the best fit for your business, or if you decide to use both chairs and tables for your business, you should know that there are a variety of massage chairs on the market. Portable massage chairs are made out of aluminum so they are strong while at the same time lightweight. They can be adjusted when you set them up to accommodate patients of different shapes and sizes.
You can also choose a desktop massage chair. If you visit offices to deliver your services, this can help. These chairs sit on the top of your client's desk or any other flat surface in the office. You can deliver your massage without taking too much time out of the client's day.
Finally, you can choose on-site massage chairs. These are more durable than portable chairs. They also can be adjusted for different sized clients. If you wish to give seated massages at your clinic, this is the type of chair to use.
Whether you use a chair or a table, you are providing important services to your clients as a massage therapist. Take the time to evaluate the differences between massage chairs and tables. Then you will be able to decide which is best for your business.
A Tailored Massage
Using pressure sensor technology, the Ultra creates a virtual map of your back. The massage you receive is contoured to your height and your spine's curve. Real Pro Ultra™ scans your body and is able to identify you. The "floating" massage heads glide over your back and know where to massage - and where not to. You create your own customizable program, which Ultra remembers for the next time you're ready for a massage. The air bags conform to your body, and the Air Ottoman System even extends to open/closed to accommodate any height.
The "Junetsu" Massage Technique: A Panasonic Exclusive
Junetsu, the Japanese word for "ultra-fine kneading," is based on the one-second circular thumb movements of professional massage therapists. Junetsu quickly loosens up tight muscles, and the spiral circular motion reverberates down through the muscles to invigorate you down to the surface of your bones.
Reflexology
For professional, personalized massage therapy on your feet, the Real Pro Ultra™ utilizes adjustable and removable plates to incorporate reflexology into the massage experience. This reflexology stimulates additional massage points on your feet, increasing blood and energy flow throughout your body.
Acupoints
You have approximately 350 acupoints on your body, with nearly 100 on your back and neck alone. From the soothing palm style of Swedish massage, to deep tissue kneading, to Shiatsu massage, the Real Pro Ultra™ has a variety of techniques for invigorating these energy acupoints.
Advanced Quad-Style Massage Technology
Massage heads that open and close - these four massage styles can be chosen during a massage:
# Shiatsu
# Swedish
# Fist Kneading
# Grasping
Relax, Rejuvenate, Invigorate
