Seated Massage FAQ's:
A Brief History of Seated Massage:
  Despite modern equipment, chair massage has very ancient origins. For example, old Japanese block prints show people getting massaged while seated on stools.
 

Current use of Seated massage
Also referred to as on-site massage, seated massage can be found in airports, county fairs, concert venues, malls, sporting events and just about anywhere people are standing in log lines. It has become a prominent feature in corporate offices, where chair massage therapists are brought in on a regular basis to relax personnel.

What is seated massage?
Seated massage is a type of massage where the client sits on a specially designed chair while the massage is being performed. This unique design allows the therapist easy access to the five most common areas of tension and stress: the neck, shoulders, arms, hands and back. The chairs unique design puts you in a position that relieves tension even before the therapist starts working.

What to expect during your seated massage?
You will remain fully clothed for the twenty-minute session. You sit on a specially designed massage chair with pads that fully support your face, chest, arms, pelvis and knees. Acupressure techniques are used on your back and head, Swedish massage strokes, such as petrissage (kneading) are used on the arms, neck, shoulders and hands. Your session will end with several minutes of the Thumper Professional Body Massager working your back muscles.
