Imagine returning home after a full day of hunching over your laptop at work, and you are yearning for a massage to release the tension in your body. But now, you won’t need to try calling for a last-minute massage appointment.

Simply sink into the uFairy+ Massage Chair, your personal masseuse that does not restrict your self-care routine to regular spa trips but instead, lets you enjoy relaxing downtime whenever you want from the comfort of your own home.

If you are shopping for your first massage chair – and looking for good value – the uFairy+ from Zero Healthcare’s Essential series is an affordable entry-level choice, under $1,000.

Made from high-quality synthetic leather and available in two soothing colours, pastel green and latte, the upgraded model is now packed with more innovative and customisable features.

A hands-free massage activated by your voice

Unlike some other entry-level massage chairs, Zero Healthcare’s uFairy+ comes with a multi-functional LCD touchscreen control panel as well as an AI (artificial intelligence) voice control function.

The LCD touchscreen control panel lets you adjust the intensity of the massage rollers and the strength of the airbags. To use the AI voice control function, simply say “hello Zero” followed by your preferred massage mode to command it to do your bidding.

There are 14 voice commands available, from a neck and shoulder massage to a back and waist massage, and even reclining your massage chair into an almost-flat position. This is also known as the zero gravity mode that is inspired by the weightless atmosphere in space capsules. AI also instructs your chair how to best massage your sore spots, based on your body length.

Be spoilt for choice with eight auto massage programmes which include Refresh, Soothing and Full Body. The customisation factor does not stop there: each programme comes with three massage techniques – kneading, tui na and gua sha – for a complete massage experience just the way you like it.

To offer targeted pain relief, the 16 airbags positioned around the shoulders, arms, hips, calves and feet are adjustable across three different levels of intensity, so you decide whether you want a gentler massage or a targeted deep-tissue one.

For instance, if you suffer from text neck syndrome, the uFairy+ is cleverly crafted to envelop your neck and shoulder areas while it kneads away all that stiffness. Standing all day or rushing in and out of meetings? The footrest offers an invigorating ‘scraping’ foot massage with a gua sha-inspired technique.

To help boost blood circulation and wrap you in a warm comforting cocoon, the uFairy+ comes with two adjustable heat pads for your waist and stomach. Choose the heat therapy feature to warm these up to a relaxing 45 deg C – ideal for a crampy back or a bloated tummy.

And even though the uFairy+ is designed to be compact for smaller homes, its leg rest can go up to 15cm for different heights so everyone in the family can enjoy a massage session when they visit.

More designs for every knead

If you need more targeted relief for muscle recovery, stress relief or pain management, Zero Healthcare’s Therapeutic series of massage chairs, priced from $2,790, are engineered to meet these needs.

From the Therapeutic series, the Majestic Massage Chair offers 18 automatic massage programmes, including three Deep Sleep options and Palm Acupressure Therapy.

The spacious seat accommodates every body type in your family and its wireless charging station is perfect for those who cannot be away from their mobile devices.

If you are ready to indulge in the ultimate massage chair experience with cutting-edge technology and luxurious comfort, invest in a model from the Super series, like the Supreme Xmassage chair.

Have not been sleeping well? This top-tier model’s 24 automatic massage programmes even come with Sleep Music Therapy to lull your mind and body into complete relaxation. Its 4D Massage Track aligns seamlessly with your spine so that you enjoy a precise back and lumbar massage.

And if you think that your massage chair can’t get any fancier and smarter, check out the uR7ss massage chair, that is also from the Super series.

Be spoilt by its 24 professional auto programmes as well as AI Precision Sensors that adjust temperature, speed and position changes for an unrivalled experience from head to toe.

To knead away tight knots in your back, mechanical 4D rollers cover a wider area while offering a range of massage styles, from a gentle tapping to a more rigorous tui na technique. Tired feet will appreciate the chair’s 360-degree 3D Air Compression Massage feature with options for a calf and knee massage.

Adding to the overall experience is the unique 3D Surround Heat feature. While most massage chairs offer heat therapy for specific body parts only, the uR7ss is designed to imbue your entire body with a comforting warmth to help with blood circulation and elevate your relaxation.

According to the brand, the uR7ss massage chair is also said to boast the world’s first Limbatical Stretch function which helps improve your lower body’s balance, stability and flexibility over time.

Tips for first-time massage chair buyers

Besides the brand and cost, tick these off your checklist too:

  • What materials does the manufacturer use?

Make your investment count by looking out for durable materials like high-quality leather and air compression technology – especially if you use the chair often.

Or better yet, head down to the physical store to see and test out the massage chair for yourself. The staff will be able to guide you through the materials used across the range of massage chairs available, helping you choose onethat best fits your needs and lifestyle.

  • Are there too many complex functions that make things even more stressful?

A massage chair is there to relax you, not make you feel more stressed with complex control functions. Choose one with a simple touch-pad remote or even better, AI voice command that lets you adjust the settings effortlessly.

  • What is the warranty on the massage chair?

If you are spending a few hundreds or even thousands on a massage chair, you would want it to come with product warranty and follow-up service if you need any after-sales assistance. Also, always ask if the price includes delivery and installation charges.
