Some massage chairs will have other massage options, research to ensure they are a fit for you.

Leg and foot Massage

In order to get a full body experience, look for a chair that has a massaging leg, calf or foot rest. A deep calf massage is incredibly soothing after a long day of standing or an intense workout. Your feet have over 50 reflexology pressure points, so a foot massage can actually aid in the health of your other important body parts.

Inclination of Massage Chair
When your body is fully reclined, it is in an optimal position for relaxation. Choose a chair with reclining capabilities of 150 to 170 degrees, which brings you close to the zero gravity position. This lets you experience a deeper massage. If you'd like the convenience of being able to recline with the touch of a button, look for a chair that has this automatic function.

Airbags
Air bags are a somewhat luxurious feature of massage chairs. Inflated air bags work to compress your muscles in the same way that a Swedish massage would. Especially on the calves and feet, air bags help stimulate circulation and alleviate stress. The more airbags a Massage Chair has, the better the overall massage will be.

Motors
A full body massage chair should have at least two motors. Each motor performs a different function or covers a different area of the body. A two motor chair would likely have one motor in the back and another in the seat or leg rest. More advanced chairs usually have 3-4 motors such as the 3D Chiro which has one motor for the leg unit, one motor to drive the massage hands in the backrest up and down, one motor to drive the massage hands left and right and another motor to drive the massage hands back and forth into the contours of your spine.
