Japanese massage chairs have long been the industry standard for quality and comfort. If you are contemplating a purchase, you should consider a massage chair made or designed in Japan.
The premium massage chair market has been shaped by Japanese designers and manufacturers. That includes models like the KOYO 303TS (engineered and built in Japan) and brands like Panasonic (engineered in Japan and manufactured in China) and OHCO. All are recognized worldwide, and that recognition has been enhanced with OHCO’s introduction of the made-in-Japan M-Series massage chair.
The Japanese are pioneers and leaders in massage chair technology. The first massage chairs were designed and manufactured in Japan, and the country continues to achieve new breakthroughs. The drive among Japanese massage chair brands to innovate and maintain extremely high standards is strong. In fact, the concept of a medical massage chair was an outgrowth of rules and regulations established decades ago by the Japan Ministry of Health and embraced by these businesses.
The Japanese public is on board, as well. As a result of government involvement, oversight, and endorsement of medical massage chairs, consumer interest in Japanese-made massage chairs in particular has burgeoned to a point where, today, more than 15% of Japanese households own a massage chair, and many more people use them on a regular basis. In Japan, massage chairs are seen as essential tools that provide real health benefits.
In Japan, you find the perfect blend of a society that’s tuned in to the benefits of massage and has a manufacturing culture focused on precision. The result is chairs that offer superior massage experiences and reliability. Japanese massage chair owners won’t settle for anything less.
Because of their confidence in their products, Japanese brands typically offer user-friendly warranties, too. If something does go wrong with a product, you have a team that’s ready and eager to make things right. There’s a sense of pride in the Japanese massage chair industry that you don’t see in every manufacturing setting. These organizations and employees want to produce the best massage chairs on the market, and it shows in the results they achieve.
The idea of massage chairs as an essential household medical and health necessity has caught on in the U.S. Today, Americans looking for an effective way to decrease their stress and improve their health often turn to Japanese-made massage chairs or Japanese-engineered massage chairs.
That’s true for many reasons—most notably the incomparable experience when you ease into your chair and out of this world! Japanese massage chairs create a sense of deep relaxation that’s difficult to express in words. You’re more likely to understand it by seeing the look on someone’s face during and after a Japanese massage chair session. It clearly says, “Wow! That is impressive.”
And it’s an experience that transcends all borders and boundaries. People around the world appreciate massage chairs made in Japan. They know from experience that these furnishings can address many conditions that affect health and happiness, including stress, pain, fatigue, and others.
One reason people who own Japanese massage chairs never tire of them is their versatility. Whether you’re looking for shiatsu or Swedish massage, kneading, rolling, or tapping motions, with or without heat, your massage chair can deliver an outstanding experience.
And, of course, you control the intensity of the massage. So, if you want a relaxing, light massage before bedtime, vigorous pressure following a workout, or anything in between, it’s all available at the touch of a button.
