Therapeutic Massage Furniture
Massage is the practice of applying structured or unstructured pressure, tension, motion, or vibration - manually or with mechanical aids - to the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, joints, lymphatic vessels, organs of the gastrointestinal system and reproductive system to achieve a beneficial response.Therapeutic massage promotes relief from stress, anxiety, muscle tension, injuries, poor sleep, poor concentration, poor circulation, depression, and "burn-out". Chair massage typically lasts 15 - 30 minutes, up to one- hour is maximum. Little or no lotion is used
Massaging furniture has nonrotating vibrator motors which are mounted on a rigid member in furniture. Electric power at different frequencies or energy levels is supplied to the respective vibrator motors. Frequency differences in the vibrations result in moving interference waves being produced in the rigid member which waves are imparted to the user of the furniture who experiences a massaging effect. Means are provided for enabling the user to control the frequency differential and amplitudes of the driving currents.
The present invention relates to a massaging device and vibrator for providing soothing vibrations to the body of a user. One aspect of the massaging device includes an article of furniture, a vibrator comprised of an electric motor with an eccentric rotor, and means for attaching the vibrator to the article of furniture so that the rotor rotates and induces vibrations in a plane that is parallel to the user contacting surface of the furniture. The vibrator itself is constructed to enable it to be easily attached to articles of furniture that are constructed in various ways from varying materials. A further aspect of the therapeutic massaging device comprises a pad device having a soft, flexible, upper supporting surface, and a vibrating device with an eccentric rotor mounted in the pad device so that the rotor has an axis of rotation that is generally perpendicular to the upper supporting surface of the pad.
Benefits of therapeutic massage:
- Relieves physical problems associated with repetitive tasks
- Helps balance the effects of stress in our lives thus reducing tension headaches, reducing anxiety level and restores a calm mind and feeling of well-being.
- Therapeutic massage helps balance the effects of stress in our lives, and avoid stress related disease and dysfunction by:
- Triggers the Relaxation Response
- Relaxes tense muscles
- Reduces anxiety level
- Normalizes blocked energy flow
- Improves immune system functioning
- Restores a calm mind and feeling of well-being
The treatments used by massage therapists, chiropractors and physicians and turned those techniques into the revolutionary Human Touch Technology. This 3-dimensional technology works like hands, wrists and arms to emulate the techniques used by back care professionals.
Robotic Massage furniture does what you tell it; you customize each movement to your preference. One can choose from a manual massage mode or select the preprogrammed session for a massage that feels remarkably human.
