Features of a Leather Massage Chair

Many of you have visited Brookstone and perhaps tried one of the massage chairs. One of the brands that they feature is Osim. They are a large distribution company located in Singapore. They are known for branding chairs manufactured by others under their name. One of the chairs that they sell to Brookstone is iSymphonic massage chair which will be reviewed in the following paragraphs.

Some people get confused that massage chairs are made by one company and branded by another. This is fairly common as the technology is fairly specific. Osim is a company that does this and also companies like Sanyo use other ones to produce them.

This recliner is equipped with infrared sensors. The sensors are used to measure the dimensions of your body to provide a custom massage. The massage rollers will adjust themselves based on the readings of your body.

This model also has an integrated music therapy system. The music therapy system is a little bit more than just listening to your favorite music. The massage is synchronized to and orchestrated by the music that is being played.

A synchronized music system works by adjusting the movements to the tempo of the music. Different parts of the chair like the rollers will respond to the music being played. This gives you a unique sensation as the music and massage work in tandem.

Automatic massage programs are preset programs in the recliner. There are a total of five automatic healthcare programs in the Osim iSymphonic recliner. These programs are set for 15 minutes.

In addition to automatic massage programs, there are also manual massage techniques. This enables you to select a technique and let it work over a specific area. This is great for targeted relief.

This massage chair is a powered recliner. The motorized recline can be adjusted from 120 to 170 degrees. Keep in mind that 180 degrees is completely horizontal. Simply push a button on the remote to recline the chair backwards.

This recliner also comes with an air massage system. There are specially designed airbags in the leg rests and on the seat. The leg massage uses vibration in conjunction with the airbags being activated. The chair lacks an arm massage.

I am a big fan of music therapy. Music helps you to relax. It is a good way to distract your mind from its troubles. Most massage therapist use soft rhythmic music to provide for their treatments. This massage chair comes with a good music therapy.

The Osim iSymphonic massage chair is worth considering as a contender for your attention in its price range. It may not have all of the sophisticated technology contained in chairs like Panasonic or Sanyo but it does an admirable job.

I was a bit surprised at the weakness of the back massage. I like a good firm massage. I reclined the chair all the way back and even took off the back cover. I was directly on the rollers and didn’t feel the penetration was very much.

If you’re out shopping for a massage chair, then one of the easiest ones to try is Osim iSymphonic at Brookstone. This is a good chair but not the best on the market. They have locked in a great distribution channel but do not produce the best chairs on the market. Those are my thoughts on the Osim iSymphonic massage chair.
