Innovative Features on Sanyo Massage Chairs
Sanyo massage chairs are made in Japan, a country where massage has been taken seriously for hundreds of years. Not only are they manufactured in Japan, but also their research and development divisions are based there. Since Sanyo is such a large and diverse company, they are able to take technologies from other areas, such as motors, and apply them to their development of massage chairs. Lets take a look at some of these innovative technologies that are applied in their Sanyo massage chairs.
-
Zero-Gravity Position 1 - with a single push of a button, the higher end Sanyo massage chairs automatically adjust to the perfect natural position for the body. But it isn't just a simple recline, the backrest, seat and foot rest all adjust in relation to each other to help you relax. This also puts your body in the ideal position for a massage, especially for the lower back.
This position is called zero-gravity because it was originally used by astronauts during take off. This reclined position reduces the gravitational pull, and thereby stress, an astronaut feels during take off. This increase in stress that is exerted on their body comes from the Earth's increased gravity pull as the rocket launches from Earth. The reclined position distributes that increased gravitational pull more evenly across their entire body.
- Zero-Gravity Position 2 - this position on Sanyo massage chairs is just one more push of a button and reclines you back a bit more; but more importantly, your legs are elevated to a higher position to help stimulate blood circulation in your legs. To further improve circulation, you receive an air only massage through 24 separate air bags, which gives a stretch and compression massage to you lower back, hamstrings, calves, ankles and feet.
- GK Rollers - this is a special squeeze massage for the neck and shoulders. The massage rollers actually reach up to 6" out to "grip and squeeze" your neck and shoulders, using a jointed massage roller that helps it to feel just like an actual hand massage. I think this is a great feature, because I always wondered how a chair could give your shoulders a proper massage, a problem that Sanyo has addressed with this solution.
- Stiffness Detection Sensor - this feature in the upper end Sanyo massage chairs is truly revolutionary. Using the same technology as found in lie detectors, by putting your fingers on a special pad, the chair can identify the tense areas of your body through changes in pulse and perspiration when the rollers reach different areas of your body. The chair then automatically adjusts the massage program for the various degrees of stiffness it detects throughout your body.
- Multi-Point Leg and Foot Shiatsu - This leg and foot massage gives a deep massage, with air bag compression, to relieve stress in your feet, ankles, calves and legs. Many Sanyo massage chairs also offer heat to promote better circulation.
- Physical Shape Sensor - these unique sensors adjusts the massage rollers to accommodate various body types and sizes. This also includes an adjustment on the leg massage unit to fit people of different heights.
These are just a few of the great and innovative features that Sanyo offers. Some of their other great features include a very comprehensive and easy to understand remote control, many preprogrammed massage courses, and various massage speed settings. All of these great features add up to a very relaxing experience that you can have in the comfort of your own home with any of the upper end Sanyo massage chairs.

Health Benefits of Massage Recliners vs. a Massage Therapist
After a long hard day at the office wouldn't it be nice to get a massage. Unfortunately you have to first find a certified or licensed massage therapist. If you're lucky and happen to know someone or have a regular therapist you work with, you still have to schedule an appointment. After you call and set the time you'll have to get back into your car and drive to therapist's office.
In today's world most of us want instant gratification and have limited time in our hectic life. If money was no object most of us would get a massage every week, or possibly two or three times a week.
Let me pause here for a moment. It is very ironic that I would be writing an article about massage recliners because I am a certified massage therapist. As a therapist my first goal is to help the client get healthy. Sometimes I refer a client to a chiropractor or to an acupuncturist that can better serve the clients needs. The same is true about massage recliners. With new technology massage recliners have advanced beyond clunky massage rollers to high tech massagers that can emulate the human touch.
There are many health benefits from a massage from a trained therapist or a massage recliner. A trained massage therapist knows how to get the kinks out of your back and relieve the muscle tension from everyday stress. Massage recliners have superior technology and do more than rub your back. New models from Human Touch, iJoy, Panasonic and Sanyo can also massage the legs, feet, arms and shoulders.
Health Benefits of Massage
* Improves lymphatic flow. The act of massaging and kneading the muscles increases blood flow. Health benefits are better circulation and absorption of nutritional elements into the muscles and tissues. In addition, kneading the muscles helps clear out toxins out of the muscles.
* Decreases muscle tension and improves flexibility. Body tension and stress causes the muscles to tighten and shorten. Health benefits include loosening tight muscles and restoring range and flexibility.
* Massage therapy produces the 'feel good chemical', the same endorphins that are increased after working out at the gym. This 'feel good chemical' helps speed recovery, reduces pain and reduces anxiety.
Another benefit seldom discussed is clearer thinking. When you are out of body pain and the range of motion is restored to your neck, your mind can better concentrate on your everyday tasks.
Rates for a massage therapist can range from $40 to $100 depending on the therapist's level of training and the city they are located in. Massage recliners are not cheap and can cost thousands of dollars. But over time, a massage recliner can pay for itself and provide many health benefits. Other considerations of cost savings are other family members using the massage recliner. In addition, some massage recliners are very stylish and are a handsome addition to any home decor.
Another benefit of a massage recliner is the fact it is a recliner chair. Anybody who has ever sat in a recliner knows how comfortable it is. Even if you do not activate the features of the massage recliner, the recliner itself has health benefits. The simple act of just sitting in a comfortable chair relaxes your body and eases body tension.
It's your choice. Buy a massage recliner or call a massage therapist. Either one that you choose will have many health benefits. To make your buying decision easy I'd suggest scheduling two or three appointments with a certified or licensed massage therapist. Then try several brands and models of massage recliners to compare results.
