Chair massage is a style of seated massage that is typically short—10 or 15 minutes—and focuses on your back, shoulders and neck and arms. Chair massage is done over clothes and doesn’t require any massage oil.

What to Expect

For chair massage, you are seated in a special chair with your face resting in a cradle, looking down towards the floor, with support for your arms. Your back and neck completely relax while the therapist relieves muscle tension using Swedish massage moves like kneading and compression and tapotement, which don’t require oil.
