Here are a couple of staples to think about with your next massage chair:
Compression massage: These are the new generation airbags that make massage chairs feel more like getting an in person massage. New airbags make the massage seem more lifelike.
Ability to Adjust Massage Therapy Intensity: The #1 reason anyone returns a chair is because it is too rough or not a firm enough massage. Newer chairs can be customized to fit the needs of multiple people.
Calf and Foot massage: Chairs have differing massage rollers to give a variety of massage techniques to your foot and calfs. Common settings are reflexology and acupuncture.
Heat therapy: Most chairs in this range will just have lumbar heat therapy. Important note: We test chairs that say they have heat therapy or advanced features, but usually they fall short during the sitting test of the best massage chairs under $3,000.
