Shiatsu Massage Chairs

Shiatsu, which translates to "finger pressure," uses stretching, pressure, and spinning to create a whole-body healing effect that can lessen tension, muscle discomfort, anxiety, and depression. Shiatsu massage is sometimes referred to as the equal of acupressure. Shiatsu massages are historically founded on the belief that the body's life force, also known as ki (or chi or qi), moves through a variety of energy channels. An energy channel is obstructed when you experience pain in a certain location. Shiatsu massage releases these barriers and offers a soothing and revitalizing treatment. The Jupiter Premium LE massage chair's Shiatsu Point Finder does a thorough body scan to find your Shiatsu points and create a massage that is tailored to your unique body profile.

Techniques Used in Shiatsu Massage Chairs: 

  • Pressure Points: Shiatsu massage therapists use rhythmic finger pressure on precise acupressure sites along meridians to relieve tension, enhance circulation, and restore energy flow. 
  • Palm and Thumb Pressure: The therapist applies varying degrees of pressure to the body with their palms, thumbs, and fingers, depending on the client's needs and sensitivities. 
  • Stretching: Shiatsu massage incorporates moderate limb stretching and mobilization to enhance flexibility, reduce muscular stiffness, and increase joint range of motion. 
  • Rocking and Rotating: Rocking and rotating movements may be used by a massage chair to induce a sense of relaxation and gentle movement throughout the body.
