You can find many different manufacturers of massage chairs on the market today. However, one company has been around for three decades which is Panasonic. Panasonic has been developing massage chairs for many years and has now introduced their advanced EP MA-20 massage chair.

This particular recliner from Panasonic has a new innovation. It is called the intensity control sensor. The idea behind this sensor is to provide a more evenly balanced massage regardless of your body type. It is powered by a new microprocessor that runs six times faster than the previous version.

A new roller design has been developed which provides more even pressure than its predecessors. It also contains a faster microchip allowing it to make adjustments much more quickly. This enables the roller mechanism to adjust its pressure in real-time depending on the settings of the intensity control sensor.

The user also has the ability to adjust the intensity of the rollers for the back, neck and shoulders. You can increase the massage intensity with the remote control. This allows you to get a deeper tissue massage or a more superficial massage as you wish.

The EP MA-20 massage chair also has an integrated air massage system. The air massage is located in the leg ottoman. It contains 14 airbags which are used to deliver a compression style massage for the lower body.

A great way to relax your feet is with a reflexology massage. The specially designed airbags are used to soothe the feet while the specialized reflexology plates target your pressure points on the soles of your feet. Just slip your feet in and let your relaxation begin.

Another nice feature incorporated into this recliner is the stretching system. An automatic stretching system helps to relieve stiffness in your thighs, hips and also the lower back. This is a great way to stretch out the lower body while getting a full body massage.

This recliner also comes with motors to power the chair back. Simply use the buttons on the remote control to find the perfect angle of the chair easily. You can also raise or lower the leg rest from the remote control as well.

Panasonic has included three automatic programs with this recliner. The automatic programs are full body massages which last 15 minutes in duration. This gives you the ability to select your massage with the touch of just one button.

Each of the three automatic programs comes with a distinct theme. The things included in these automatic programs are deep, shiatsu and Swedish or classic massage. These are wonderful massages which can be commanded at the touch of a button.

There are also ways to target the massage to specific areas of your body. The manual massage techniques allow you to select the individual technique. You can also select a manual massage course which limits the rollers to a specific area or a point.

Panasonic is starting to update its designs from very industrial looking to now more modern and contemporary. This recliner is one of the first attempts at a contemporary looking recliner. It has very long sloping armrests with silver accents. However, the back portion of the chair is very thick compared to other models in its class.

The Panasonic EP MA-20 massage chair has some of the most advanced technology available from Panasonic. The intensity control sensor is a good addition to change the pressure of the massage and give you a more balanced feeling.
