My friend in L.A. used to have one of the earlier models about 3 decades ago and it costs more than 5 grands back then with real money.
Bob hope the golfer used to have one each day ( performed by a real person, of course ).
But this is tempting for my aging body after a round of 18.
What do you think ? Anyone has experience of similar products ? I had seen Costco Roadshow with similar products and was much higher in asking price.

The good news is that it's only give or take 700 bucks. The bad news is that it's still give or take 700 bucks.

I would do some research online before purchasing. Might be worth seeing if you can find a review on Amazon.

Just an initial gloss over shows that the chair gets pretty good reviews. Of course, only one of the reviews I read dealt with the company itself, which stated that they refused to honor their warranty. But who knows why... maybe it was purchased second-hand for all we know.

Looks nice.

    I guess I'll wait until I pass 70 years old.
    Wife reminded me of all the obligations we have....... it's a piece of luxury we can't afford right now.

    It sure felt great when I tried it. Maybe too much of a comfort is not good for you.

      I know the feeling. I've got two kids in college and know all about sacrificing.

      I had one of those years ago. They feel pretty good, but not therapeutic like a real massage. I would definitely try before buy. Sometimes they just don't fit your anatomy.
      On another note, I just had a deep tissue massage and I feel great, much looser and am standing taller. Now this massage was a massage in name only, it hurt like hell a lot of the time. I was close to tapping out a few times. Not some geisha girl lightly rubbing you down. Although that sounds good,too.

        Golfers like Bob Hope had a daily 1 hour massage in the early afternoon, it must be great to have the resources for luxury like that.
        The newer high end shiatsu chair will actually fit the contour of your anatomy, adjusted for each users, Of course that's even more out of my range of comfort.

        Yeah,
        But yoga is for the young and nimble. Too much work for old guys, we prefer to be served, LOL.

        LBlack14 Landon, where do you find recliners large enough to comfortably fit your wee frame?

          Bought the 1 I have now @ furniture fair back in '03. Most comphy recliner I've ever owned. I've been piecing together spring repairs for the past year though. Still comphy. But gonna retire it to the bedroom or garage when I get a new one.

          I may not be as think as you "wee" I am. :-D
