On a comical note the following article reminded me of an episode on t.v. of a show
I watch called "Yes, Dear". One of the wives had very sore feet every day when she came home from college and her husband had a phobia about rubbing feet. He bought her a top of the line foot massager bath which she promptly fell in love with. She enjoyed it so much she ended up spending an entire day in it. The husband upon finding out became jealous and decided to try to massage her feet for her. She hated it, but couldn't tell him. Finally she did and made him try it to see why she was so enthralled. It took one minute to win him over.

Benefits of Massage Recliners vs. a Massage Therapist
Copyright 2005 Wayne McDonald

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 décor.

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.
