After two decades on the market, with the latest improvements, the manufacturers managed to design and to offer more effective and convenient massage chair models.
Today, the massage chairs vary in size and shape. A Massage chair with large rollers and nodes is deigned to provide a generalized massaging, while a massage chair with smaller nodes and rollers is capable to provide a more detailed massaging. However both massage chairs are capable to move in different ways, and can pre-programmed to satisfy the user needs.
