Many of you have probably heard about zero gravity recliners. Of course these recliners do not make you float into space. However, they do better distribute the weight of your body off of the spine. This can be a very relaxing position, especially if you have back discomfort. Massage chairs have integrated the zero gravity position as a new feature. Sanyo has added the zero gravity position to its model DR 7700 massage chair.

There are a number of luxury massage chairs available on the market today. Sanyo has some of the more advanced features over other models. One of the more advanced features is a new roller head design.

The roller system is the massage mechanism contained in the back of the chair. It typically massages from the neck to the lower back. Sanyo has developed a new roller mechanism which provides a grasping type of massage movements. This can be particularly relieving for tight shoulders.

The Sanyo massage roller system is able to perform a gripping massage. This is particularly desirable for massaging the shoulders. Typically, kneading massage is used to loosen the large muscles of the back and shoulders. The gripping massage enables the roller system to squeeze over the tops of the shoulders.

There are four automatic massage programs in the DR 7700 massage chair. Sanyo has preprogrammed massages such as stiffness, recovery, relax and fine. This enables you to select the type of massage programs based on the condition of your body at that time.

Sanyo has incorporated in a repeat feature for the continued massage of a specific area. Just hit the repeat button and the massage will roll back and perform the last few minutes of the massage program. This enables you to target a specific area during the course of an automatic massage program.

The DR7700 massage chair comes with a stiffness sensor. The stiffness is determined by taking a reading of your pulse rate and perspiration. This is accomplished by cupping your hand over a secondary remote control. This information is then read and inputted into the massage chair computer.

It is interesting to see the technology integrated into the DR 7700 massage chair. The stiffness detection system is an interesting concept but the reality is most people know where they need a massage. I don’t know if we need biological response technology to tell us where we have pain.

If you would like to relieve tired and aching feet, then use the Sanyo multipoint foot shiatsu massage. This unique massage system utilizes be airbags in the foot wells. It delivers a compression type massage around the calves and ankles. This provides relief to tired and aching feet.

One of the major factors and a massage chair is the relief provided by it. The relief is a function of the strength of a massage chair. You can soften a massage chair by adding pads. However, you cannot later increase the strength of a massage chair. One drawback of the DR 7700 massage chair is that its massages seem to be on the lighter side of penetration.

Sanyo has developed a number of different massage chairs at various price points. Each of the massage chairs contains the same electronic features such as the physical shape center and the stiffness detection system. The DR 7700 massage chair is the luxury model and incorporates the most features of the total Sanyo line. The DR 7700 is a massage chair to consider if you are looking at the high-end massage chairs.
