Massage has been used for a long time to help relieve aches and pains, muscle stiffness and some joint pain. It’s effective if it’s done right, but it’s difficult to do properly on yourself. And it costs money. A professional massage can cost £40 and up and for many people it can be too expensive to have done regularly.

So what can you do if you’d like the benefits of a massage every week – or even every day – but you can’t afford the regular cost of treatment? Well, there are a number of things you could do, but one of the easiest and most economical over the long term is to invest in one of the many home massage ‘chairs’, such as the SBM-500H from Homedics.

The purpose of massage “chairs” is to give you varying levels of massage intensity and, sometimes, to add heat to the massage as well. Different models have different features, but common to all of them is the concept of zones. There are usually at least a couple of zones of massage, which may be independently switchable and controllable so that you can enjoy the massage in the area where you need it most.

Quality models, like the shiatsu SBM 500H, or Homedics SBM500H, offer independently controlled back and shoulder massage and once you’ve experienced the ability to choose the area that gets massaged, at the flick of a switch, it’s hard to go back to a basic model.

Models with heat output are also lovely to sink into on a cold winter’s evening. Sitting on a chair that gently warms your back and shoulders and combines it with a gentle, de-stressing massage, is a lovely way to relax and unwind after the tension of the day.

If you have any health issues, or joint, back, or heart problems, consult your doctor for professional advice before self-administering any massage.
