TechnoMassage

Massage chairs are a thing of the past, with new tech spicing up potential

Implications - Along with the more mainstream relaxation furniture (like high-tech massage chairs), an array of massage devices are being developed, which also reach niche markets like pet owners, children and the disabled. The emergence of massage technology reflects the growing desire for products and services that promote pampering and relaxation. It also speaks to the rise of holistic medicine – people are no longer convinced that traditional medicine and prescription drugs are the only way to address stress-related health issues.
