There's nothing like a good chair massage!
Are you familiar with the concept of a chair massage? Chair massage, a prevalent modality in the realm of massage therapy, is a quick and efficient way to rejuvenate the body and mind, often delivered in high-traffic environments such as offices, airports, and health fairs. But what is a chair massage, and how can it help you on your wellness journey? Let’s take a look.
What is a chair massage?
A chair massage is a short, stress-reducing, therapeutic massage where the recipient sits on a special chair with their face resting on a cradle looking downwards. The design of the chair offers full support to your head, arms, and knees while allowing the massage therapist access to your neck, shoulders, back, and arms. Interestingly, this type of massage therapy doesn't require you to undress. It’s typically performed over clothes, making it an excellent choice for those who prefer to maintain modesty or have little time for a full-body table massage.
The duration of a chair massage varies, usually ranging from 5 to 20 minutes. Given its shorter duration compared to traditional massage, chair massage is an affordable and time-effective solution for those looking to alleviate stress and muscular tension in a pinch.
