One of the biggest questions and decisions for most adults “nap or keep going and crash later?” We have all been faced with this question on several occasions and obviously the answer is different for each individual based on their situation but here are a few of my experiences and hopefully you find them helpful.

I have always been an early riser so I wake up between 430 and 530 every morning so by the time the middle of the day comes sometimes I am out of gas. I have always fought with the idea of naps. What should be the length of my nap? Should I take the nap in the bed or couch? Should the tv be on or off?

When it comes to the length of my nap if always struggle, I’ve unfortunately called everything from 15 min to 2 hrs a nap and I know that’s not the case. So I looked back at the origin of problem to see what was really the need I was having so I could understand the goal of the nap. Sleep is for you body to recover but a nap is for you mind and body to recharge. I found that the longer or later in the day that I took my naps the harder it was for me to sleep that night which threw everything else off for me. So when looking at my naps I had to categorize each situation. Was my body tired and need of the recharge vs my mind tired and in need. I found that my Human Touch massage chair suppled the solution to both and had an answer to all the questions I had above my nap situation.

The length of the nap was easily addressed in the settings 10, 20 or 30 min. Each one is based on what I have going on at that moment. It I find myself mentally just frustrated or out of it but my body is good I do a 10 min session. I used the meditation setting I’ve got the calming sounds going in the speakers and I just let my mind drift and not think. This normally allows me to clear my mind and get rid of the frustration I’m having from looking at a problem the same way and not finding a solution. Some times I will even use the 20 min setting if I find myself just not being able to let it go completely. But the key for me is to mentally be in a different state when I leave the chair. My mind should be at peace and have more clarity and eventually I will find a way to solve the problem I’m having.

On the bed or on the couch, the answer is neither! Your Human Touch massage chair has the best ability to get your body in a state of being totally relaxed. The zero gravity feature allows every inch of your body to be relaxed and get the rest and rejuvenation needed. Don't get my wrong, the bed is a great place to take a nap but sometimes it can be a trap. Many time you will find yourself staying in the bed longer than you expected. This isn’t to say that your chair isn’t comfortable and that you can’t spend hours sleeping in your chair. The biggest difference is training. You have been conditioned your entire life to sleep in your bed 6-8 hours everyday vs chairs which have been a place you just relax. So you will get a nap in the chair and as it gently rocks back to the upright position from the zero gravity cradle you will have a reminder that it is time to get up.

Last question: tv off or on? You chair gives your the ability to use the speakers so you can have a variety of sounds that best calm and stimulate you. This is one of the best features of personalization because of the Bluetooth you can pair it with any device you wish to make it a truly unique experience. I like to pair it with my phone and have podcast or music playing while I nap at a low volume so it doesn’t distract me from from my recharge session. The other part that I like is just in case I fall asleep and don’t feel the chair go back to it’s upright position I will hear my alarm go off in the speakers and wake me up so I can get back going with my day.

My Super Novo chair has been such a great asset to my day to day life. I have definitely found a way to incorporate into 2-3 uses per day which has helped both my mental and physical performance. Thank you so much for reading this month’s section of the recovery corner I hope it was helpful in you wellness journey.

Are you looking for the best family gifts for Christmas? A massage chair may just be the right choice. For those who suffer from back pain or work stressful jobs, a massage chair is a gift that will keep on giving.

But how do you choose the right chair? And which chairs make the best gifts?

How To Choose a Massage Chair for Back Pain Relief

A massage chair is the best gift for back pain because it delivers relief on-demand. Kick back, relax and let the chair get to work alleviating tension and melting away stress.

When back pain is the main concern, there are several things to consider when choosing a massage chair, such as:

• Massage Intensity: Does the chair offer a gentle or intense massage? Intense massages aren’t ideal for everyone, so choose a level that the person or family will be comfortable with.
• Massage Technology: Chairs with an S- and L-track massage will massage from the neck and shoulders down to bottom of the spine and under the thighs. These chairs will deliver a full-body massage, especially if they have a built-in calf and foot massager.
• Extra Features: Things like lumbar heat, built-in speakers, acupressure systems and zero gravity seating will enhance the massage experience.

Why Can You Make a Difference in the Recipient’s Lifestyle with Such a Gift?

If you’re looking for healthy Christmas gifts or gifts for back pain, a massage chair is a thoughtful choice and can really make a difference in the person’s life by:

• Delivering natural pain relief on-demand
• Helping ease stress
• Promoting self-care

The recipient can enjoy the benefits of massage without ever having to leave their home. For those with mobility issues, busy schedules or difficulty finding a local massage therapist, a massage chair can help them finally get the relief they need.

Best-Selling Massage Chairs with Innovative Features

Virtual Therapist - Super Novo Massage Chair

Super Novo is our most futuristic massage chair. The chair is so advanced that we’ve added a Virtual Therapist function to guarantee an amazing experience in the chair. The Virtual Therapist will:

• Ask you multiple questions
• Store the answers for future reference
• Customize the Super Novo massage to your liking

The questions you answer will be used to make the chair “smarter.” When the chair has all of the answers to your questions, it will store your settings so that you can more easily and quickly enjoy your favorite massage.

• 3D and 4D massage programs

Warranty

0.2” Rear Clearance - Certus Massage Chair

Certus is a spectacular chair with a lot of amazing features, but to mention one that often goes overlooked, you might take note of the 0.2” clearance. The clearance allows you to sit back into zero gravity with the chair just 0.2” from the wall.

Many consumers have foregone purchasing a chair because it simply doesn’t fit into their space.

However, Certus breaks free from the norm with a chair that can fit in even a small room or corner as long as you allow less than a half an inch between the chair and wall.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• 11 Auto-wellness programs
• Dual lumbar heat
• Foot heat
• Zero gravity reclining with 0.2” clearance
• Premium surround sound
• Acupressure massage
• Fun, upbeat colors that match even more décor styles

Cons

Again, the only main concern with this chair is that it is more expensive, which may make it out of some people’s price range.

Price

Color Options

• Earth

• Slate

Warranty

Multiple Heat Zones - Gravis ZG Chair

Gravis ZG is a chair that fits perfectly in homes and professional offices. The chair looks similar to an upscale office chair, but it offers a gentle air massage with the addition of multiple heat zones so that you can target any area of the body without warming up areas that are fine just the way they are.

You’ll also enjoy targeted massage benefits and access to the Gravis ZG App.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Targeted massage options
• Power adjustments
• Multiple heat zones
• Small footprint
• Lightweight

Cons

Gravis ZG is a superb chair, but it isn’t the most advanced massage chair in our lineup since it has air massage rather than a massage track. The chair offers a gentle massage and excels greatly thanks to the multiple heat zone options available on the chair.

Price

$5,400

Color Options

• Beech (Base option)
• Black (Base option)
• Mahogany (Base option)
• Gray (pad set option)
• Saddle (pad set option)

Price

$4,999

Color Options

Final Thoughts

Whether you’re in search of a recliner with speakers or other specialized features, we’re always pushing the limits of what a massage recliner may have to offer. If you’re looking for a chair with a specific feature, hit the “Help” button to below to chat with one of our Wellness Specialists today!

The first goal when we all wake up is to have the best day possible. Sometimes this gets messed up before we even get started. We sleep through alarm clocks and are late so we are rushing the whole day. We just don’t feel right and our body is off or we sleep in the wrong position and now we aches and pains that we have to workout to try to feel better. Possibly you just didn’t have a good night sleep or enough sleep because you went to bed later than you expected.

There is a long list of reasons why many of our days don’t start off ideal which more often than not slips into us not being able to have the most productive day. I guess in a perfect world we would all wake up like the prince in the movies Coming to America. Beautiful spacious bed, perfect temperature setting in the room, just the right amount of sunlight. Laying in the perfect position with the best pillow and gently waking up to a symphony. Well this isn’t the reality for 99.9% of us in the world and definitely not the people reading this blog.

But how do you make everyday the best day possible? You do some research, play around with a few ideas and construct a regimen that works for you. As an athlete we always talk about warming up and being a our peak so we can perform. That is the same for everyone else living life as well. If you start your day in ways that put you in the best possible light you will have less stress, a clearer mind and a more joyful heart. With those three components your will be a better employee, parent, partner and person all around.

The first thing I do when I wake up every day is go and sit in my Human Touch Super Novo masage chair for twenty minutes. If you look they tell you that everyday first thing you should meditate. No better place to do than your chair! I don’t your the same setting every morning but I do a 20 min session and I always use the heat option.

During this time I mentally go over the thoughts and key points of what i would like to do that day. I try to visualize and anticipate things that may happen that day and ways to proactively deal with adversity. I also envision the success that i would like to see on that day. Many times while I’m in the chair i do drills and allow my mind to take over my body and talk to my muscles and tell them what needs to trigger without actually doing the motions fully. This gets my body ready to move, my muscles get the gentle wake up that then need so I can be at my best.

I totally understand that everyday it’s going to be perfect but if you take the to find a regimen that works for you and stick to it you will have more good days than bad. Thank you for checking into the recovery corner and I hope this was helpful to you in your wellness journey.

Massage intensity is moderate, so the chair will work well for most users.

Serenity and relaxation are what the Quies offers, and it comes with impeccable features that you cannot pass up:

Features

Gravis ZG Chair

The Gravis ZG Chair offers a great option for anyone who prefers a lower-intensity massage. The Gravis fits perfectly in any space, and offers a varity of features that that help to ease tension and stress. 

Enjoy full adjustability when sitting back in the Gravis ZG chair. Users can enjoy the true meaning of adjustability with remote control options to independently adjust the angle of the chair’s backrest, footrest, and headrest. Want to go straight to zero gravity? Simply press the ZG button to recline back into ultimate bliss.

The Gravis also offers adjustable heat zones, which allows users to chose which area to boost their relaxation between the back, seat, and legrest. Choose all 3 zones at once, or select one (or two) areas to focus the calming warmth.

The air massage technology allows you to enjoy a very gentle massage that is efficient yet not too powerful that it causes pain or discomfort. You can even turn on the Gravis ZG app for more advanced massage options.

Features

• Air Massage Technology
• Multiple Heat Zones
• Power Adjustable Headrest, Backrest, and Footrest
• Targeted Massage Benefits
• Innovative Gravis ZG App

Pros & Cons

The Gravis offers the most advanced seating adjustments of any zero gravity recliner, and as an added bonus will fit nicely in offices and professional spaces alike. The aesthetic of the Gravis ZG Chair is a great option for those trying to decide whether to get a massage chair or an elegant zero gravity recliner. The air massage technology is also wonderful for anyone who prefers a lighter touch. The primary downside to the Gravis is that it has a maximum user height of 6'2", though this is merely to accomodate optimal positioning of the head onto the headrest. If most of your length is in the leg area, it is likely that you would still find this chair fully accomodating.

Price

At the time of this post, the Gravis is on sale for $4,999 (regular price is $5,499)

Color Options

• Gray
• Saddle
• Sand
• Bone

The one small complaint that people have with the Sana is that people over 6’3” won’t fit comfortably in the chair. Otherwise, this is a really solid chair filled with great features for well under $5,000.

The holiday shopping season is just about here. We’re offering the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals on your favorite massage recliners, chairs and top-selling products.

If you’ve been holding off on buying a massage chair because you’re waiting for the best price, you’ll be happy to know that many of our sales are starting November 1^st. Why so early? As you know, many freight companies have longer-than-normal delays this year so we wanted to give you enough time to order your holiday gifts so that they arrive when you need them to.

So while the White Glove shipping window has passed, you can still order massage chairs and zero gravity recliners with standard shipping for a December 25^th arrival date if you place your order before November 14^th!!

What is Black Friday?

Black Friday is the start of the holiday shopping season, in which most brands offer deep discounts on consumer products for gift-giving.

When does Black Friday start?

Let's find out.

When Does Black Friday 2022 Start?

What’s the Black Friday 2022 date? November 25^th.

However, with shipping delays happening more frequently, many companies (including Human Touch) run Black Friday promotions all throughout the month of November to help customers get a head start on the excitement. Watch out for additional deals that might launch on November 25^th (hint, hint).

What is Cyber Monday?

Cyber Monday is a relatively new event, in which many online brands offer sales for consumers who were perhaps travelling or with family on Black Friday, but back at their computers on Monday morning. Customer-conscious brands created this additional sales event date so that everybody would have a chance to take advantage of their amazing offers.

When is Cyber Monday 2022?

Massage chair Cyber Monday deals will take place on November 28^th.

But we’re going to let you in on a little secret. A lot of retailers will keep the sales party going from November 25^th – 28^th, so it’s more of a Cyber weekend than it is a single day.

More than 39 million Americans live with migraines, according to the American Migraine Foundation. Across the world, one billion people suffer from migraine disease.

If you’re one of the millions battling migraines, you know how challenging it can be to find relief. You may have heard that massage therapy can help with headache pain, but is this true? Can a massage help with migraines?

Effects of Massage on Reducing Headaches

If you’re struggling to find relief from migraines, you may be looking for alternative ways to kick the pain to the curb. A relaxing massage can help with headaches in many ways, and having a massage chair in your home makes it convenient to get relief whenever you need it.

But what are the benefits of massage therapy for migraines?

Here’s how massage can help reduce your headaches:

Eases Muscle Tension

Headaches and migraines are often the results of muscle tension in the neck, shoulders or back. Massage can help reduce that tension, which is the root cause of the headache.

Massage chair rollers can help stretch tense muscles and increase muscle elasticity to help alleviate and prevent tension that can lead to headaches.

Research has confirmed the tension-relieving effects of massage, which can help with headaches as well as muscle recovery.

Easing muscle tension can also help combat stress, which may contribute to migraines.

Improves Circulation

Massage can also help with headaches by improving circulation. Better blood flow means more oxygen is pushed through the body, which can alleviate pain and help with healing.

Research has shown that massage can help improve circulation, and these results can last for several days. Using a massage chair regularly can extend this effect and potentially keep headaches and migraines at bay.

Improved circulation has other beneficial effects that extend beyond headache relief. It can help:

• Support heart health
• Keep your brain sharp

Final Thoughts

A massage chair can offer the same benefits as massage therapy for headache and migraine relief. These three chairs come equipped with features to help target areas that are known to cause tension headaches. Massage programs, lumbar heating and zero gravity seating can all work together to help melt away tension and stress that may be contributing to your headache pain.

Do your neck and shoulders hurt? Sitting at an office desk all day, texting or scrolling through social media and even sitting on the couch can cause neck and shoulder pain.

We’re going to help you find the perfect chair for shoulder pain – and neck pain.

But first, it’s essential to learn about:

• The benefits of massage
• How neck and shoulder massage chairs work
• Features to look for in your chair

The best shiatsu back, neck and shoulder massager with heat has a lot of great benefits. Let's see what they are.

The Benefits of a Neck & Shoulder Massage

There are many benefits to neck and shoulder massages, including:

Help with Tension and Pain

Many people carry tension in their neck, which can lead to pain and even reduced range of motion. Of course, it doesn’t help that most of us spend several hours a day staring at screens or looking down at our phones.

Tilting your head forward just 30 degrees puts 40 pounds of force on your neck. The more you tilt forward, the more pressure you put on your neck and shoulders.

A neck and shoulder massage can help alleviate tension and pain in these two key areas.

Improve Muscle Soreness

Massage can help improve blood flow and oxygen to painful areas, reducing discomfort and inflammation. It also helps release endorphins, which are your body’s natural painkillers.

And when your massage is complete, you may even notice an improved range of motion. Why? Because massage helps remove lactic acid build-up that can cause muscle stiffness.

Help with Headaches, Migraines and Eye Strain

Tension and stiffness in the neck and shoulders can lead to headaches, migraines and even eye strain.

Massaging tight and stiff muscles in the neck and shoulders can bring some relief. And those endorphins we talked about earlier can also help reduce pain.

Boost Your Mood

It’s no secret that a massage makes you feel good. When your body is relaxed, your mood naturally improves. If you experience any pain relief, you’re sure to feel even better.

When you need a natural pick-me-up, a neck and shoulder massage is a great solution.

How Do Neck & Shoulder Massage Chairs Work

A massage chair with neck massage functions works with rollers in the neck portion of the chair that will work their way up your neck to alleviate tension, stress and kinks in your neck. However, some chairs do use airbags for the lower portion of the neck and the shoulders.

If you have a heated chair, the neck and shoulder chair massage will work to alleviate muscle tension and tightness.

Features to Look for in A Neck & Shoulder Massage Chair

How do you know what’s the best massage chair for neck and shoulders? Review the chair’s features.

• Scanning: The most advanced chairs have scanning technology that scans your body to map out pressure points. While most massage chairs will provide a great neck and shoulder massage, body scanning will provide a truly customized massage.
• Neck/shoulder massager: A neck massage chair will have a headrest that allows you to melt into the chair and enjoy a great massage session. Since all chairs have headrests, you’ll want to look for models with rollers that extend to the neck or shoulders. If rollers aren’t present, see if there are airbags.
• Heat therapy: Sore and tight necks and shoulders are the bane of people worldwide. Everyone is looking up at a monitor during the day and down at a screen at night. Tight, sore necks and shoulders respond very well to heater chairs because heat will loosen up the tightness in these regions.

While it would be nice to have a neck and shoulder massage chair with all of these features, budget will play a significant role in your ability to purchase a chair.

If money is not a concern, you’ll find spectacular options in our catalog that will fit your needs.

However, we’ve done our best to list and review five of the best massage chairs for shoulders and necks below to fit any budget.

Plus, you can enjoy a massage in the comfort of your own home any time you want.

Massage chairs with zero gravity are some of the top-selling models in the world. Zero gravity allows users to receive a targeted massage with the pressure taken off of their necks and spines.

However, the best zero gravity massage chair has a lot of benefits that we’re going to discuss in great detail.

Before we go into our list of zero gravity massage chair benefits and reviews of the top three chairs on the market this year, it’s important to know what zero gravity really means.

What is a Zero Gravity Massage Chair?

Often referred to as an anti gravity massage chair, zero gravity chairs are specially designed massage chairs that put users into the zero gravity position.

What does this mean?

Users will sit in a neutral body position that was actually designed by NASA. The position allows for a condition of “weightlessness” that helps equalize your weight throughout your body. When weight is even, stress throughout the body is alleviated, especially in your:

• Neck
• Back
• Spine

Additionally, you’re put into a 120-degree angle position that puts your legs above your heart and allows for a position that relaxes the body and nervous system.

Add in a full body massage chair in zero gravity or a shiatsu massage chair in zero gravity, and you’ll massage away stress and tight muscles while relieving all of the stress and tension on your joints and spine.

But what does zero gravity really do? What benefits does it offer?

Let's find out.

Zero Gravity Massage Chairs’ Benefits

Improve Breathing

If you tend to fall asleep during your massage, it may lead to snoring. However, in the zero-gravity position, you’re able to keep your airways open, preventing:

• Snoring
• Sleep Apnea

Many people that sit in zero gravity note that they have an easier time breathing.

Reduce Pain

Sitting causes pain. It may be nice to kick your feet up after a long day of work and sit on the couch, but you may put excess stress on your back and neck. Zero gravity massage chairs will reduce pain naturally in a few ways:

• Massage is known for helping ease pain on its own. Tight and sore muscles are no match for a top-tier massage chair. As the tension and tightness are alleviated, it leads to lower pain.
• Zero gravity takes the pressure off of your neck and back, so your body can relax and heal. If you have pain in these two key areas, zero-G removes the stressors that cause more pain.

Alleviates Swelling

Swelling in the feet and legs is quite common. You may have swelling for numerous reasons, but the most common is poor circulation. Since you’re in the zero-gravity position, the fluid in your lower body can move through the body more easily.

Additionally, massage can get these fluids moving so that you can expel them from your body.

Helps With GERD and Acid Reflux

GERD, acid reflux and basic digestive issues are also alleviated when you lay back on the best zero gravity massage chair. The position helps stop acid from bubbling up in your esophagus thanks to gravity.

Many users fall asleep in their chairs after meals without experiencing any acid reflux episodes.

Improve Circulation

When you lay back in zero-G, you’re also reducing the pressure on your heart. The key is in the position of your feet being higher than your heart. The position promotes circulation, so not only does your body get to relax, but your heart can also relax.

Promotes Relaxation and Stress Relief

Why are you looking for a massage in the first place? If you’re like most people, life has left you stressed and unable to relax. A zero gravity massage chair allows you to relax and reduces stress while you’re “floating.”

The body can:

• Relax in zero gravity
• Massage works out the stress in your body

If you have a lot of stress and tension, it may be time to consider a zero gravity massage chair. The following are three chairs that offer exceptional massages with top-tier features and zero gravity options.

Conclusion

While this is our list of the top zero gravity massage chairs available, it’s up to you to choose the best zero gravity massage chair for your budget. There are a lot of great options above, and the Super Novo may be the best fit for someone with a large, open space, but the Certus is an excellent option for small spaces due to its compact design concept.

When comparing massage chairs, you’ll find that some models are S-track, some are L-track, and others are both S-track and L-track. But what exactly does that mean? What are the pros and cons of S track vs L track massage chairs?

Let’s take a closer look at what roller tracks are, the difference between S- and L-tracks and which one is the right fit for you.

What are Roller Tracks?

When you sit down in a massage chair and start a session, you’ll notice that the rollers move along a particular path (usually, up and down the spine). That path is the roller track. It guides the rollers along certain key areas of the body to help massage away tension.

Roller tracks also allow the rollers to move side to side and in and out to mimic the movements of a massage therapist.

There are two main types of roller tracks used in today’s massage chairs:

• S-track
• L-track

The primary difference between the two is the length, but there are other things to consider when comparing both types of tracks.

Let’s compare a massage chair S track vs L track to help you understand the pros and cons of each one.

S-Track Massage Chairs

Many modern massage chairs are S-track massage chairs. They’re designed to target tension and stress in the back, shoulders and neck. The S-track is the standard track that you’ll find with most massage chair models.

What is an S-Track?

The term “S-track” refers to the shape of the track. It follows the natural, gentle S-curve shape of the spine.

The track runs from the neck down to the lower back to deliver a thorough massage.

S-Track Pros & Cons

S-track massage chairs have many advantages, but there are a few drawbacks that you need to consider.

Pros

• Eases tension in the neck and back
• Targets the entire back as well as the shoulders and neck

S-track massage chairs are ideal for people who carry tension in their upper back, shoulders or neck. This type of massage track focuses heavily on these areas, which can help you work out tough knots that are hard to reach otherwise.

Cons

• The lower back doesn’t get as much attention
• The track doesn’t go beyond the lower back

If you suffer from lower back pain, you may find that an S-track massage chair doesn’t provide complete relief. The track may not reach far enough to target all of the

L-Track Massage Chairs

L-track massage chairs are more advanced and offer a deeper, more thorough massage. Designed to target more areas of tension, L-track massage chairs typically have features and technologies that create a more immersive massage experience.

What is an L-Track?

An L-track is very similar to an S-track, but it extends further down the spine and under the bottom. The track creates an L-shape – hence, the name.

L-Track Pros & Cons

L-track massage chairs offer many benefits, but there are some potential downsides you should consider.

Pros

• Longer reach targets more muscles for a more thorough massage
• L-track rollers can also stretch muscles

The L-track's ability to reach the lower back and the buttock makes it an excellent choice for people who have lower back tension and pain like sciatica. Because the track runs from the top of the head all the way down to the hamstrings, these chairs create a full-body massage experience.

Cons

• L-track may not be ideal for those who have upper back pain or neck tension
• The cost is typically higher for an L-track massage chair

Because the track is longer, L-track massage chairs may not focus as much attention on the upper back and neck. While L-track chairs typically come at a higher cost, they offer more functionality and can target more areas of the back.

So, What Should I Choose: S-Track or L-Track Massage Chair?

Which is the better option: L track or S track massage chair? The answer really depends on your personal preferences. Some chairs, like our Super Novo, have both an S-track and an L-track function, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds.

Consider your needs and your goals for your massage chair.

• What are your problem areas?
• What kind of massage experience do you want?

Depending on your answers to these questions, you may find that an S- or L-track is better suited to your needs. For example, if you suffer from sciatica, an L-track chair may be the better option.

If your budget allows, consider a chair with an S/L track so that you don’t have to choose.

Regardless of your decision, a massage chair is a smart investment in your health and wellness. The relaxation and stress-busting effects are priceless, and both types of massage tracks will deliver a thorough massage to eliminate knots and kinks.
