EP30006 Panasonic Ultra Deep Massage Chair
In fact, this chair from Panasonic copies the artistic style of massage techniques as used by a professional massager. Arguably, the one limitation of both, the 30005 and the 30006 is the fact that they provide massage that many find to be bit too vigorous.

14 Jun 10 Human Touch HT-135 Massage Chair Deserves Your Attention
You may find it unbelievable, but now you can get immediate relief from that irritating pain in the neck or back by merely pressing a button. The HT-135 by Human Touch will simply do that for you. The HT-135 comes from the family of the HT-125 and HT-136, but with different aesthetics. The motor of all the three models has the same power.
In fact, this chair copies the artistic style of massage techniques as used by a professional massager. The Human Touch technology, which this machine employs, is the preferred technology of the American College of Chiropractic Orthopedists. The HT 135 comes with three programs, each pre-programmed to last for fifteen minutes, thus allowing you experience a quick fix.
This chair traces the natural path of your spine and moves along the three axes in four different modes. The headrest and rotating calf and foot massager of the HT 135 is ergonomically designed as is the remote control, making it all the more user friendly.
Human back is the home of the spinal cord and muscles, one of the most important parts of human body. The Human Touch 135 comes with three auto massage programs to eliminate long lasting pain from your back. This feature takes care of your full, lower, and upper back and relieves you of muscle soreness. The HT 135 has a detachable head pillow whereon you can position your neck for an intense massage that’s sure to leave you speechless. For additional comfort, the HT includes three shoulder height adjustments to ensure there is no unnecessary strain on your shoulders, and take care that the rollers don’t “thump” the back of your skull during the neck massage.
Massaging of legs is as important as neck and back. While gently sloping in an upward motion, the multi-speed foot and calf massager rotates at a speed that improves blood circulation thus prompting it to re-enter the calves and feet for therapeutic comfort. If you don’t feel like having a foot and calf massage, you may eliminate that and just prop up your feet and enjoy the neck and back massage. Its features allow you to have a relaxing foot massage in a reclined position.
The Human Touch comes with Visco Elastic Foam Seat Cushion that means it can perfectly align to the contours of your body. The cushion molds your body and eases pressure points, making your seating experience memorable! And the design of this chair is finally rounded off with a full body stretching feature. As the chair reclines gradually, it holds your legs, while stretching your spine that improves blood flow to the vertebrae and disks, thus keeping your lower back in a healthy state. This is a very favorite feature of users.
Apart from all these useful features, the chair is designed to include leather upholstery on a genuine wood base that’s available in many colors to blend in with your living space and furniture. There is also a two-layer folded design head pillow. With most acceptable colors like black, red and cappuccino, this chair is simply luxury wrapped in leather.
This chair has some of the same limitations as the HT-125 and the HT-136 and includes: no provision for adjusting the intensity of massage (though there is a ‘damper” pillow to alleviate the massage intensity by some degree), nor is there any provision for controlling the intensity of calf massage. There is no provision for lumbar heat, and no seat massage.
Nevertheless, compared to the cost of high end models of such chairs, the amount you invest in HT-135 provides value for money and comforts your back.
