Homedics Back Massager

Welcome to our Homedics back massager website. We have presented information on some of the most popular back massagers available. There are currently 12 different Homedics back massager models and the range starts with a basic back low-cost massager cushion with a recommended price of less than $20. The top-of-the range products include several variations on the very popular Homedics Therapist Select models; some include a Shiatsu feature.

The benefits of selecting a chair back massager cushion are considerable, even over dedicated chair massagers. Firstly, the cost is significantly less. Even the top of the range Homedics Therapist Select Shiatsu1 Massaging Cushion with Heat has a recommended retail price of $199.99 and you can probably find for less online or if you shop around. You would not be able to find a massage chair for anywhere near that price. It should be pointed out that there are several Homedics Therapist Select Shiatsu back massager models available and start at a recommended retail price of only $99.99 (less if you shop around).

Another benefit is that a massage cushion is portable. You can easily move it around the house and perhaps even take it with you when you travel, for example, if visiting a holiday home or even take it to the office. Some models are even designed to fit onto your car seat and have an electrical adapter for your auto.

A back massager cushion (or chair massager) can be more comfortable than a flat massager that you lay on. For example, you can more easily control the pressure when sitting rather than laying on a massager with your full body weight. Also, when you’re sitting you are not placing any pressure on your chest or abdomen as compared to laying face down to receive a manual massage. This could be especially useful for pregnant women or for those who are uncomfortable laying face down.

As mentioned earlier, the various Homedics back massagers provide varying features. These include vibration, heat, rolling, spot massage and Shiatsu. The Shiatsu feature is a stronger massage style that is similar to the sensation of a strong masseur’s thumbs applying pressure. The Homedics Therapist Select Shiatsu1 Massaging Cushion is also taller in size and has additional and independent rollers that can massage your shoulders while the other rollers massage your back. This model is pictured to the far right at the top of this page.

Many of these Homedics back massagers also have a convenient remote control that fits in your hand so you can just sit back, relax and make any adjustments without interrupting your massage.

The Homedics back massager models provide a range of features suitable for virtually everyone. The fact that these are also made by a recognized manufacturer and are so affordable puts the Homedics back massager at the top of the list to consider.

Shiatsu is a traditional massage style that originated in Japan. In fact, “shi” means ‘finger’ in Japanese, and “atsu” means ‘pressure’. So as you can see, shiatsu is a massage style based around finger pressure.
