Learn Chair Massage Techniques

Why it's important to learn chair massage techniques from the experts...


Massage therapists wanting to do chair massage should get specific training to learn how to do chair massage techniques. If they don’t, they will likely find that their hands will hurt after a short while. They may feel that they can’t do deep work because it is too strenuous. We’ve also heard of therapists complaining of their backs getting sore.

When you learn chair massage techniques that are designed specifically for working in massage chairs, doing chair massage should be easy and stress free on your body. It’s not possible to become sufficiently proficient in chair massage in the few hours dedicated to it in most massage schools. And weekend workshops don’t provide enough time to really become skillful.

If you want to learn how to do chair massage professionally, it is very important that you get adequate training in chair massage techniques from instructors that understand body mechanics and the unique challenges of doing massage through the clothing in a seated position.

Relax to the Max is the place to go if you want to learn chair massage techniques. It is the only massage school in North America that specializes specifically in chair massage training. The chair massage techniques that you learn to do in the massage chairs are specifically designed to be easy to perform and to have widespread appeal

Eric Brown, the creator of the Relax to the Max program describes how the chair massage techniques were developed:

"At Relax to the Max you'll learn chair massage techniques that were specifically designed to feel great for the customer and to be easy on your body . In the early 90’s we did market research with a group of about 80 people to come up with the most effective techniques. We gave each person a massage using both Swedish and Shiatsu style techniques as well as some unique techniques that were designed specifically for the chair. After each massage we asked the person to tell us which techniques they enjoyed the most and which ones they liked least. We continued with this process, dropping the techniques people didn't like and keeping the ones they did. We weren't faithful to any one particular style of massage. Our only criteria was that the techniques feel terrific. By the end, we had an arsenal of techniques that had universal appeal - everybody loved them. From those techniques we chose the ones that were easiest on your body as a practitioner. You learn these chair massage techniques in the program."
