Massage Chair Buying Guide Brisbane: Compare 5 Feel Good Massage Chairs

Sep 26
19 min read

Choosing a massage chair is different from choosing most other furniture.

With a dining table or bed frame, dimensions, materials and construction can tell you much of what you need to know. A massage chair adds another layer: how the chair fits your body, how the massage system feels, how easy the controls are to use and whether the chair suits the room where it will be positioned.


Massage chairs combine furniture with motors, massage mechanisms, air-compression systems, heating functions, electronics, controllers and powered reclining.


That means specifications are important, but they are only the beginning of the decision.


Citylife Furniture currently offers five Feel Good massage chair models:


Customers can research the chairs online, compare specifications and available product videos, and arrange to experience selected models at Citylife Furniture in Sumner, Brisbane.


Feel Good Massage Chairs also identifies Citylife Furniture as one of its Queensland stockist partners, giving Brisbane customers the advantage of combining online research with access to a local retailer.


This guide explains the main massage-chair technologies, compares the five Citylife models and covers the practical things to consider before ordering or visiting the showroom.


Why Choosing a Massage Chair Is Different From Choosing a Normal Recliner


A standard recliner is primarily a seating product.


A massage chair combines seating with mechanical and electronic systems that can include:

  • Massage rollers

  • Moving massage tracks

  • Air-compression cells

  • Heating

  • Foot rollers

  • Calf massage

  • Body scanning

  • Automatic programmes

  • Manual massage settings

  • Powered reclining

  • Zero-gravity positions

  • Touchscreens

  • Voice controls

  • Bluetooth and charging features


Two massage chairs may both advertise zero gravity, heating and full-body massage while feeling noticeably different once you sit in them.


The differences can come from the massage mechanism, roller depth, track design, air pressure, foot section, seat size, controller and overall fit.


A good approach is:

Research online → understand the specifications → decide which features matter to you → shortlist the chairs → try them locally where possible.


For Brisbane customers, the ability to research the Feel Good range through Citylife Furniture and then visit the Sumner showroom is a significant advantage.


What Do 3D, 6D and Dual Core Massage Chair Terms Mean?


Massage-chair terminology can become confusing.

Terms such as 3D, 6D and Dual Core describe different massage technologies, but the technology name alone should not determine which chair you choose.


3D Massage

A 3D massage mechanism generally allows the rollers to move with adjustable depth as well as travelling vertically and horizontally.

This can give the user more control over how deeply the massage mechanism presses into the body.


More Advanced Multi-Dimensional Systems


More advanced systems can provide additional control over massage movement, speed, rhythm, position and intensity.


The terminology can vary between manufacturers, so it is better to understand the actual functions of the individual chair rather than assuming that a larger number automatically means a better massage for every user.


Dual Core or Dual Mechanism


A Dual Core massage chair uses two massage mechanisms rather than relying on one mechanism to cover the full massage area.


For example, one mechanism may work through the upper body while another operates through the lower section.


Both the Genesis Plus and Galaxy in the current Citylife range use dual-mechanism technology.


The useful questions are:

  • Where does the massage mechanism travel?

  • How many mechanisms are operating?

  • Can massage depth be adjusted?

  • Can speed and intensity be changed?

  • Can the massage position be manually adjusted?

  • Does the chair scan the user's body?

  • Which parts of the body receive roller massage?

  • How does the chair actually feel to you?


More technology does not automatically mean the chair will be the right choice for every person.


What Is an SL-Track Massage Chair?


The massage track determines the path followed by the roller mechanism.

An SL-style track is designed to follow the natural curve of the back and continue further through the lower-back and seat region than a shorter back-only track.


Track length and design can vary significantly between massage chairs.


This means two chairs described as full-body massage chairs may still provide different roller coverage.


When comparing chairs, look at:

  • Track type

  • Track length

  • Where the rollers begin and finish

  • Whether the chair performs automatic body scanning

  • Whether roller position can be adjusted manually


The 3D Shiatsu is one example in Citylife's range using SL-track massage together with body scanning.


What Does Zero Gravity Mean on a Massage Chair?


Zero gravity refers to preset reclined positions that change the relationship between the backrest and leg section.


Different massage chairs can offer different numbers of zero-gravity positions.

The Elysian and 3D Shiatsu, for example, include multiple zero-gravity levels.


During a showroom demonstration, the important thing is not simply whether the chair has zero gravity.


Try the different positions.


Ask yourself:

  • Does the reclined position feel natural?

  • Is your head properly supported?

  • Are your legs comfortably positioned?

  • Does the chair still fit your body when fully reclined?

  • Is it easy to return to an upright position?


The position that feels comfortable for one person may not be the preferred position for another.


Why Does Body Scanning Matter?


Body scanning allows a massage chair to identify the user's position and adjust the massage mechanism accordingly.


This becomes particularly useful when several people in the same household use the chair.

Different users can have different:

  • Heights

  • Shoulder positions

  • Torso lengths

  • Leg lengths

  • Body proportions


A body-scanning chair can help position the massage mechanism more appropriately before the programme begins.


If several family members will use the chair, check:

  • Whether body scanning is automatic

  • Whether the roller position can still be adjusted manually

  • Whether leg length can be adjusted

  • Whether massage intensity can be changed easily

  • Whether the chair comfortably accommodates the tallest and heaviest regular user


Models such as the 3D Shiatsu and Hikari include body-scanning technology.


Air Compression: More Than Just Massage Rollers


Many massage chairs combine roller massage with air-compression massage.

Inflatable air cells can be positioned around areas such as:

  • Shoulders

  • Arms

  • Waist

  • Hips

  • Legs

  • Calves

  • Feet


The number of airbags alone should not determine your decision.

Where the airbags are positioned and how the pressure feels can be equally important.


The 3D Shiatsu, for example, includes extensive air compression, while the Hikari provides even broader air-compression coverage.


During a demo, check whether:

  • The pressure feels comfortable

  • The arms fit properly inside the arm sections

  • Calf compression feels appropriate

  • Foot compression suits your feet

  • The pressure can be reduced if necessary


Some customers enjoy strong compression while others prefer something much gentler.


Heat Functions: Check Where the Heat Is Applied


Massage chairs can provide heating in different areas.

Some models concentrate on the lower back.

Others provide heat across multiple zones.


For example:

Elysian includes lower-back heating.

3D Shiatsu includes heat around the waist and foot area.

Genesis Plus includes multiple heating zones across areas such as the waist, seat, legs and feet.


Rather than simply asking whether a chair has heat, check:

  • Which parts of the body are heated

  • Whether the heat can be switched on or off

  • Whether the temperature feels comfortable

  • Whether you actually expect to use the heat regularly


Foot and Calf Massage Can Feel Very Different Between Chairs


The lower-body massage system is another important difference between models.

Features can include:

  • Foot rollers

  • Multiple underfoot rollers

  • Air compression

  • Calf compression

  • Heating

  • Adjustable leg sections

  • Leg extension


People have very different foot sizes, calf sizes and sensitivity levels.

This is one of the features that is particularly valuable to try in person.


A chair may have an impressive foot-massage specification, but what matters is whether it is comfortable for your feet and legs.


Meet the 5 Feel Good Massage Chairs at Citylife Furniture



The Elysian provides a more straightforward entry into Citylife's current Feel Good massage-chair range.


It includes multiple automatic and manual massage programmes, several massage-intensity levels, zero-gravity reclining and lower-back heating.


Controls include a large touchscreen together with voice-control and Bluetooth functionality.


Its comparatively compact design can also make it worth considering for customers who want a full massage-chair experience without immediately moving into one of the larger or more technologically complex models.


The Elysian is worth comparing if your priorities include:

  • Straightforward everyday use

  • Multiple automatic programmes

  • Manual massage options

  • Adjustable massage intensity

  • Zero-gravity reclining

  • Lower-back heating

  • Touchscreen operation

  • Voice control

  • Bluetooth

  • A comparatively compact design


The Elysian demonstrates an important point: you do not necessarily need the chair with the greatest number of features if you primarily want easy access to regular massage programmes and simple operation.



The 3D Shiatsu introduces a more advanced combination of massage technology.


It includes:

  • 3D massage

  • SL-track roller system

  • Automatic body scanning

  • Extensive air compression

  • Multiple automatic programmes

  • Multiple massage techniques

  • Zero-gravity reclining

  • Waist and foot heating

  • Foot kneading and roller massage

  • Touchscreen operation

  • Voice control

  • Bluetooth audio

  • Charging features


The chair also provides a relatively wide seat, which is another specification worth checking when comparing user fit.


The 3D Shiatsu is useful for customers who want to experience the step from a more straightforward massage chair into:


3D massage + body scanning + broader compression + more advanced foot massage.


Room planning is important with this model because it requires both front and rear clearance when reclining.



The Genesis Plus Dual Core moves into dual-mechanism massage.


Rather than relying on one massage mechanism, the chair uses two massage cores operating simultaneously.


It also provides a substantial range of automatic programmes and manual massage techniques.


Features include:

  • Dual massage mechanisms

  • Extensive automatic programmes

  • Multiple manual massage techniques

  • Adjustable massage depth

  • Air-compression massage

  • Zero-gravity positioning

  • Multiple heating zones

  • Calf and foot functions

  • Tablet-style controller

  • Armrest quick-access controls

  • Voice operation

  • Bluetooth

  • Charging functions


The control system is particularly worth considering.


Some customers enjoy using a detailed touchscreen or tablet to customise everything.


Others may prefer physical shortcut buttons they can reach without navigating through several menus.


The Genesis Plus offers both approaches.


The model also includes a wellness-reference sensor that can provide information such as selected wellness measurements and programme recommendations.


This type of feature should be treated as a general wellness reference feature, not as a replacement for medical diagnosis or professional healthcare advice.


The Genesis Plus is particularly worth comparing if your priorities include:

  • Dual massage technology

  • High programme variety

  • Extensive customisation

  • Multi-zone heating

  • Several different control methods

  • Shared household use



The Hikari sits among the more advanced full-body massage chairs in Citylife's current range.


It combines extensive massage technology with:

  • Body scanning

  • Multiple automatic programmes

  • Broad air-compression coverage

  • Zero-gravity reclining

  • Heating

  • Advanced leg and foot functions

  • Intelligent control functions


The Hikari is useful to compare when broad massage coverage and a high level of functionality are priorities.


Because Feel Good periodically updates product specifications and technology descriptions, customers should always check the current Citylife Hikari product page for the latest confirmed massage-system and track specifications before ordering.


This is particularly important for advanced massage chairs because model generations can change while the model name remains familiar.



The Galaxy Dual Core uses separate upper and lower massage mechanisms.


This allows different areas of the body to be worked through dedicated massage systems.


Its feature set includes:

  • Dual massage mechanisms

  • Multiple massage techniques

  • Whole-body air compression

  • Adjustable back heating

  • Zero-gravity positioning

  • Advanced foot massage

  • Multiple underfoot rollers

  • Automatic footrest extension

  • Space-saving forward-glide reclining


The space-saving recline system is particularly relevant for room planning.

Rather than simply reclining backwards, the chair moves forward as it reclines.


This allows the Galaxy to operate closer to a wall than some massage-chair designs.


That can be valuable where the customer wants an advanced full-size massage chair but does not have unlimited space behind it.


Comparing the 5 Citylife Massage Chairs


The five chairs should not be treated as a best-to-worst ranking.


Each model is aimed at a different combination of features, technology and user needs.


  • Elysian

    Focuses on straightforward operation, multiple programmes, zero gravity, heating and a comparatively compact design.

  • 3D Shiatsu

    Introduces 3D SL-track massage, body scanning, substantial air compression and more advanced foot functions.

  • Genesis Plus Dual Core

    Adds two simultaneous massage mechanisms, extensive programme choice, multi-zone heating and several different ways to control the chair.

  • Hikari

    Focuses on advanced full-body massage functionality, broad air compression, body scanning and extensive leg and foot features.

  • Galaxy Dual Core

    Combines separate upper and lower mechanisms, full-body air compression, advanced foot massage and a space-saving forward-glide design.


The right chair depends on:

Body fit + preferred massage style + intensity + controls + room size + functions you will genuinely use.


Will a Massage Chair Fit Your Body and Your Room?


Before looking at colours or deciding where the chair will sit, check the physical specifications.


Massage chairs are larger than ordinary armchairs and can occupy considerably more floor space when fully reclined.

Check:

  • Overall width

  • Upright depth

  • Reclined depth

  • Chair height

  • Front clearance

  • Rear clearance

  • Seat width

  • Footrest length

  • Footrest extension

  • Maximum supported user weight

  • Recommended user-height range where provided


If several people will use the chair, use the tallest and heaviest regular user when checking suitability.


This is particularly important for family purchases.


Space-Saving Recline Systems Can Make a Big Difference


Not every massage chair reclines in the same way.


Some need significant space behind the chair.

Others glide forward as they recline.


For example, the Galaxy uses a forward-glide design that substantially reduces the amount of rear-wall clearance required.


This can make a significant difference in:

  • Smaller living rooms

  • Bedrooms

  • Media rooms

  • Apartments

  • Home offices


When comparing chairs, do not look only at the upright measurements.

Check the full reclining footprint.


Measure the Delivery Path — Not Just the Room


A massage chair may fit perfectly in the final location and still be difficult to get there.

Measure the complete path from the delivery point to the final room.


Check:

  • Front doorway

  • Side access

  • Hallways

  • Tight corners

  • Internal doors

  • Stairs

  • Lift dimensions

  • Apartment entrances

  • Final room doorway


Also distinguish between:

assembled chair dimensions

reclined dimensions

and

delivery-carton dimensions.


These measurements may all be different.


Massage chairs are also considerably heavier than ordinary armchairs, so deciding the final location before delivery is much easier than trying to repeatedly move the chair later.


Where Should You Put a Massage Chair in Your Home?


Massage chairs can work in:

  • Living rooms

  • Media rooms

  • Bedrooms

  • Home offices

  • Dedicated relaxation spaces


Think about the massage chair as part of your furniture layout.


If it sits in the living room, check:

  • Will it block the TV when reclined?

  • Will it interfere with the coffee table?

  • Is there enough room beside the sofa?

  • Does another recliner also need operating space?

  • Is there a clear walkway?

  • Is an appropriate power point nearby?


The chair's colour and overall size should also work with the existing room.


This is where Citylife's wider furniture range can help customers think about the massage chair in relation to Sofas & Recliners, TV Units, Coffee Tables and other Living Furniture.


Will More Than One Person Use the Massage Chair?


A massage chair being purchased for one regular user can be chosen differently from a chair that will be shared by the whole household.


For shared use, pay particular attention to:

  • Body scanning

  • Adjustable roller positions

  • Massage-intensity adjustment

  • Seat width

  • User-height suitability

  • Leg extension

  • Foot size

  • Multiple programmes

  • Easy controls


One family member might prefer strong manual massage.


Another might prefer a gentle automatic programme.


Someone else may primarily use the foot and calf massage.


A chair with a broad adjustment range can therefore be more useful in a multi-user household.


Massage Intensity: Stronger Is Not Always Better


Customers often ask how powerful a massage chair is.


But the lower end of the intensity range is just as important as the upper end.

Ask:

  • Can the massage be made gentle enough?

  • Can the rollers be repositioned?

  • Can air-compression strength be adjusted?

  • Can specific body areas be turned off?

  • Can massage depth be changed?


A chair with very strong massage but limited adjustment may not suit someone who prefers a gentler experience.


This is another reason showroom testing is valuable.


How Easy Is the Massage Chair to Control?


Advanced technology only adds value if the user can comfortably operate it.

Controls can include:

  • Touchscreen

  • Tablet controller

  • Traditional remote

  • Physical shortcut buttons

  • Voice commands

  • Automatic programmes

  • Manual programmes


Someone comfortable with technology may enjoy detailed manual customisation.

Another customer may prefer a chair where they can simply press one automatic programme and relax.


If the chair is being purchased for parents or older family members, it can be particularly useful to test:

  • How readable the controller is

  • How easy buttons are to reach

  • Whether the user can start a basic programme without assistance

  • Whether the chair returns to the upright position easily


Getting In and Out of the Chair Matters


This is easy to overlook.


Massage chairs often have large arm sections, deep seating and mechanical leg sections.


During a demonstration, check:

  • Can you comfortably lower yourself into the chair?

  • Can you stand up easily afterwards?

  • Are the armrests positioned comfortably?

  • Does the chair return to an upright position that makes exiting easy?


This is especially important when the chair is being purchased for an older family member.


Operating Noise Is Worth Testing


Massage chairs contain motors, rollers, pumps and air-compression systems, so they are not completely silent.


If you plan to use the chair while:

  • Watching television

  • Reading

  • Listening to music

  • Relaxing in a shared living room

listen to the chair while it is actually running.


What one person considers quiet may still be noticeable to someone else.


What Should You Test During a Massage Chair Demo?


A massage-chair demonstration should answer the things a specification sheet cannot.


When trying a chair at Citylife Furniture, check:

  • Does the seat fit your body?

  • Are your shoulders positioned correctly?

  • Does the body scan locate the massage points correctly?

  • Is the gentlest intensity comfortable?

  • Can you make the massage strong enough if required?

  • Does the calf section fit properly?

  • Do your feet fit the foot-massage section comfortably?

  • Are the foot rollers comfortable?

  • Which zero-gravity position feels best?

  • Can you understand the controls?

  • Are shortcut buttons easy to reach?

  • Is the chair's operating noise acceptable?

  • Can you get in and out comfortably?

  • Does the chair still feel comfortable after several minutes?

  • Would the other regular users in your household also fit comfortably?

This is one of the strongest reasons to combine online research with a local showroom demonstration.


Where Can You Try Feel Good Massage Chairs in Brisbane?


Citylife Furniture is located at:

42 Spine Street, Sumner, Brisbane QLD


Feel Good Massage Chairs identifies Citylife Furniture as one of its Queensland stockist partners.


This gives Brisbane customers a local location where selected Feel Good massage chairs can be experienced before purchasing.


The process can be:

Research online → compare Citylife's five models → shortlist the chairs → visit Sumner → try the chairs → make the decision.


Because showroom displays can change, it is always a good idea to contact Citylife Furniture before travelling to confirm that the particular model you want to try is currently available for demonstration.


What If You Live Outside Brisbane?


Not every customer can easily visit the Sumner showroom.


Regional customers can still:

  • Compare Citylife's massage-chair specifications online

  • Review product images

  • Watch available product videos

  • Contact Citylife with product questions

  • Compare room-clearance requirements

  • Review supplier documentation

  • Ask about current demonstration options

  • Arrange delivery to eligible regional areas


Feel Good also provides virtual demonstration options through its wider network, which can be useful for customers unable to reach a showroom.


Why Local Brisbane Support Matters


Massage chairs contain considerably more technology than most furniture products.

They can include:

  • Motors

  • Electronics

  • Controllers

  • Roller mechanisms

  • Air pumps

  • Heating systems

  • Reclining mechanisms

  • Foot-massage systems


That makes support important.


Citylife Furniture provides customers with a local Brisbane retail contact for:

  • Product questions

  • Ordering

  • Availability

  • Demonstrations

  • Delivery communication


Feel Good provides the wider supplier and technical-support network behind the products.


This combination gives customers:

Local Citylife contact + Feel Good supplier support.


That is particularly useful compared with purchasing an unfamiliar massage chair from a seller where the customer has no obvious local retail contact.


Warranty: Don't Look Only at the Number of Years


Warranty length matters, but it should not be the only question.

Customers should also understand:

  • Who provides the warranty?

  • What parts are covered?

  • How is a fault reported?

  • How is technical service organised?

  • Is service available in Australia?

  • Are spare parts available?

  • Is an onsite service available where applicable?

  • Are there exclusions?


Warranty periods can vary between massage-chair models, so always check the individual Citylife product page and current warranty information rather than assuming every Feel Good chair has the same coverage.


Australian Technical Support and Spare Parts Matter


A massage chair is a long-term mechanical and electrical purchase.

Supplier support can therefore be just as important as having a long feature list.


Feel Good provides Australian technical and service support for its massage-chair range.

When comparing massage chairs generally, it is worth asking:

  • Is the supplier established in Australia?

  • Is technical help available?

  • Can replacement parts be sourced?

  • Is there a process for warranty repairs?

  • Who should I contact if something fails?


This is a significant buying consideration that customers sometimes overlook when comparing chairs based only on price.


Buying a Massage Chair Online With Confidence


You do not need to arrive at a showroom without understanding the products.

Much of the comparison can happen online first.

Compare:

Massage mechanism

Massage track

Body scanning

Automatic programmes

Manual programmes

Intensity levels

Air compression

Heat

Foot and calf massage

Zero gravity

Controls

User dimensions

Room clearance

Power requirements

Warranty

Product manual

Delivery requirements


This lets you reduce five chairs to the two or three models most relevant to you before arranging a showroom demonstration.


Citylife Furniture product pages provide detailed information about the Feel Good massage-chair range, allowing Brisbane and regional customers to research before deciding.


Don't Choose a Massage Chair by Specifications Alone


Specifications are extremely useful for creating a shortlist.


But a massage chair is also a very personal product.


Two chairs can both include:

  • Zero gravity

  • Body scanning

  • Heat

  • Full-body air compression

  • Foot massage

and still feel noticeably different.


Use the specifications to understand the technology and narrow the range.


Then, where possible, sit in the chair and experience it.


This is one of the key advantages of having Citylife Furniture available locally in Brisbane.


Think About How Often You Will Actually Use the Chair


A chair with more technology is not automatically better value for every household.

Think about:

  • Who will use it?

  • How often?

  • Will several people share it?

  • Which massage programmes will actually be used?

  • Is detailed customisation important?

  • Is simple operation more important?

  • Will foot massage be used regularly?

  • Is heat important?

  • Does the room favour a space-saving chair?

  • Will the chair be easily accessible?


A massage chair positioned in a comfortable part of the home and used regularly may provide more practical value than a highly advanced model that is placed somewhere inconvenient and rarely used.


Power and Electrical Placement


Massage chairs require electricity.

Before deciding where the chair will go:

  • Check that a suitable power point is nearby

  • Avoid running cables across walkways

  • Follow the electrical requirements in the product manual

  • Do not assume an extension lead should be used unless permitted

  • Keep the power connection accessible

This should be part of the room-planning process before delivery.


Massage Chair Delivery Across Brisbane and Regional Areas


Citylife Furniture provides massage-chair delivery across eligible Brisbane, South East Queensland and selected regional locations.

Current delivery areas include locations such as:

  • Brisbane

  • Ipswich

  • Logan

  • Redland

  • Gold Coast

  • Moreton Bay

  • Sunshine Coast

  • Toowoomba


Additional regional locations may also be available.

This gives customers outside central Brisbane the opportunity to research and order the

Feel Good massage-chair range online.

Because massage chairs are larger and heavier than standard furniture, delivery conditions differ from ordinary parcel delivery.


Always check the current Furniture Delivery Information before ordering.


What Should You Prepare Before Massage-Chair Delivery?



Before the chair arrives:

  • Decide where it will permanently sit

  • Measure the full delivery route

  • Clear the entrance

  • Check stairs or lift access

  • Check doorway width

  • Remove obstacles

  • Confirm the chair's recline clearance

  • Make sure a suitable power point is nearby

  • Advise Citylife about difficult access

  • Confirm what is included with the delivery service

Do not assume that assembly, unpacking, room placement or packaging removal is automatically included unless it has been specifically arranged.

Chair Dimensions and Carton Dimensions Are Different


This is particularly important for massage chairs.


The assembled chair may fit through your living space, but the delivery carton may have different dimensions.


Likewise, the chair's upright measurements do not tell you the full space required when reclined.


When available, compare:

Carton dimensions → doorway access

Chair dimensions → final position

Reclined dimensions → operating space

This can prevent surprises on delivery day.


How Will the Massage Chair Work With Your Existing Furniture?


A massage chair should be considered as part of the room.

Ask:

  • Will it sit beside the sofa?

  • Will it replace a normal recliner?

  • Will it interfere with the coffee table?

  • Will it block the television?

  • Will it reduce walkway space?

  • Will another recliner need to open beside it?

  • Does the colour work with your existing sofa?

  • Would another corner of the room work better?


Citylife Furniture also offers Sofas & Recliners and broader Dining & Living Furniture, allowing customers to plan the massage chair as part of the overall room rather than treating it as a completely separate purchase.


How Do You Look After a Massage Chair?


Follow the care instructions provided for the individual model.

General considerations include:

  • Keep upholstery clean

  • Use suitable cleaning products only

  • Keep liquids away from controllers and electrical parts

  • Do not use abrasive or unsuitable chemical cleaners

  • Follow the operating instructions

  • Do not dismantle the chair yourself

  • Contact authorised technical support if a mechanical or electrical issue occurs


User manuals can also be useful before purchasing, not only after.


They can provide information about:

  • Controls

  • Operating modes

  • Safety instructions

  • Electrical requirements

  • Care

  • Troubleshooting

  • Space requirements


Massage Chair Safety


Massage chairs are designed for massage and relaxation use.


Users should follow the safety guidance supplied with the individual chair.


People who are pregnant, have implanted medical devices, have relevant medical conditions or are uncertain whether massage-chair use is appropriate should follow the manufacturer's guidance and seek suitable professional medical advice before use.

Children and pets should be kept clear of moving sections while the chair is operating, reclining or returning to the upright position.


Massage-chair wellness functions should not be treated as a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment.


Quick Questions About Massage Chairs


  • Should I choose a massage chair based on how many programmes it has?

    No. Programme count is useful, but body fit, massage mechanism, intensity adjustment, room size, controls and the functions you actually expect to use are equally important.

  • Is Dual Core automatically better?

    Dual Core means that two massage mechanisms are used. It provides a different massage approach, but the right choice still depends on how the chair feels to you and whether the additional technology suits your needs.

  • Can several family members use the same massage chair?

    Yes, depending on the chair and user specifications. Body scanning, adjustable roller positions, adjustable intensity and leg extension can be particularly valuable when people of different heights share the chair.

  • How much space does a massage chair need?

    It varies considerably. Some chairs need substantial front and rear clearance, while space-saving chairs move forward when reclining and can sit much closer to a wall.

    Always check the individual model.

  • Do I need to try a massage chair before buying?

    Where possible, it is beneficial. Product specifications can help create a shortlist, while a demonstration allows you to compare body fit, massage intensity, foot and calf comfort, controls, operating noise and ease of use.

  • Where can I try Feel Good Massage Chairs in Brisbane?

    Citylife Furniture in Sumner is a Feel Good Massage Chairs Queensland stockist partner. Contact Citylife before visiting to confirm which models are currently available to demonstrate.

  • Can I buy a massage chair online?

    Yes. Detailed product information, specifications, images and videos can help you compare models online. For a product as personal as a massage chair, you can then combine that research with a showroom or virtual demonstration where possible.

  • Can Citylife Furniture deliver massage chairs outside Brisbane?

    Citylife Furniture delivers to eligible locations across Brisbane, South East Queensland and selected regional areas. Check the current Furniture Delivery Information page for availability and delivery conditions.
