How Heat Therapy Works
Heat therapy applies warmth to tissues, increasing blood flow, relaxing muscles, and reducing pain. Massage chairs use heating elements like infrared pads to target areas like the back or calves. This warmth enhances massage techniques such as shiatsu or kneading. For example, the KOYO 303TS Massage Chair from Healing Touch Chairs uses infrared heat to complement its 4D massage, loosening tight muscles for deeper relief.
Medical Benefits of Heat Therapy
1. Arthritis Relief
Arthritis causes joint pain and stiffness. Heat therapy improves circulation, delivering nutrients to inflamed joints. The Panasonic MAK1 Massage Chair offers infrared heated rollers, soothing joint discomfort for arthritis sufferers.
2. Muscle Recovery
Heat relaxes muscles and speeds tissue repair by boosting blood flow, aiding post-exercise recovery. The Positive Posture Brio Sport Massage Chair uses heated rollers to deliver “hot rocks” style heat, targeting sore muscles for athletes.
3. Lower Back Pain
Chronic lower back pain benefits from heat’s ability to relax muscles and reduce pain signals. The D.Core Massage Chair features heated rollers with True Shiatsu Action, alleviating back discomfort.
