11 best massage chairs to buy in Singapore, including gaming & rocking chairs

Travel around the region and you’ll quickly realise that the price of a massage in Singapore is absurdly high compared to our neighbours. We can’t all be Pavin, our jet-setting Editor-in-Chief (hey, boss!) always travelling and getting massages on the cheap. What we can do is invest in the best massage chair and get a good massage without leaving home.

But how do you begin choosing the best massage chair from the hundreds of models out there? Well, the gold standard for a massage chair is the ability to give users the feel and the therapeutic benefits of a real massage. That was the principle we used in creating this list of the 11 best massage chairs in Singapore for you.

What is the best brand of massage chair?

While some premium brands of massage chairs do stand out, there is no single best massage chair brand. Most of the top brands of massage chairs offer a similar experience and it comes down to personal preference (and price). Some reputable manufacturers of massage chairs are:

• OSIM

• Sterra

• Ogawa

• OTO

Several models from these brands of massage chairs feature on our list of the best massage chairs in Singapore.

Choosing the best massage chair

To choose the right massage chair, you have to know what to look for. Here is a list of the main features and capabilities that make a massage chair worth the cost.

1. Massage Techniques

• Rolling: Provides a gentle and relaxing massage.

• Kneading: Simulates the hands’ kneading motion, targeting muscle knots.

• Shiatsu: Emulates the finger and palm pressure of a traditional Japanese massage.

• Tapping: Rapid tapping to stimulate muscles and improve blood circulation.

• Combination: Offers a combination of different massage techniques.

1. Adjustability

• Customisation: Look for chairs with adjustable intensity, speed, and pressure settings.

• Targeted Areas: Chairs that allow you to focus on specific areas such as head, neck, shoulders, back, legs and feet.

• Body Scan Technology: Scans your body shape and adjusts the massage accordingly.

1. Airbags and Rollers

• Airbags: Check the number and placement of airbags for a full-body massage experience.

• Rollers: Quality and number of massage rollers, especially in areas like the back and feet.

1. Heat Therapy

• Heat: Provides additional relaxation and relief to tense muscles.

1. Reclining Options

• Zero Gravity: Mimics a weightless position, relieving pressure on the spine and improving blood circulation.

• Recline Levels: Different reclining positions for varied comfort.

1. User-Friendly Controls

• Remote Control: Ensure the controls are easy to understand and use.

• Presets: Pre-programmed massage routines for convenience.

1. Size and Space

• Fit: Ensure the chair fits your body comfortably.

• Space Requirements: Consider the space needed for the chair, especially if it reclines.

A combination of these features ensures that your massage chair becomes a valuable asset for relaxation and well-being.
