Rocking Massage Chairs Scan Your Body to Fit Your Profile

PD&D TV Host Louise Rainone finally gets off of her feet and talks to Cliff Levin of Inada Massage Chairs at CES 2012.

Inada has been designing and building Japanese massage chairs since 1962. According to Cliff, the company’s ability to perfect this sweet science is one of the reasons that Louise is enjoying the much-needed R&R.

The Inada Yu•Me chair incorporates a scanning technology that takes a profile of the users back, compares the profile to 160 stored body profiles, identifies a match, and customizes the massage for anyone between 5’0” and 6’2”.  

It is the only massage chair to feature an integrated rocking motion on the market — watch as it nearly rocks Louise to sleep. Louise, those eyelids look heavy.
