Once the body is relaxed, a masseuse will let the sides of their hands tap the individual with slow and fast movements. These tapping strokes, or percussion massages, vary in intensity working to stimulate connective tissue and muscles. Tapping at very fast speeds can also simulate vibration massage.
In a massage chair, tapping is performed by the rollers in a continuous movement up and down the body. The Osaki OS-Highpointe 4D Massage Chair slides the rollers from the neck to the glutes in very fast tapping movements all while kneaded the rollers into the body. Tapping in the Highpointe can also be combined with knocking.
