4D roller: depth that adjusts in real time

The 4D roller adds a pulsing, variable depth motion on top of the standard 3D range. The mechanism can push in and retract as it moves along the track, replicating more of the varied pressure a human massage therapist applies. Buyers who find standard massage chairs feel mechanical or repetitive tend to respond well to 4D. It also means you have more control over the experience: softer when you want relaxation, firmer when you need release.

Will it fit your room?

This chair uses a standard recline mechanism. Plan for at least 12-18" of clearance behind the chair and roughly 2-3 feet of open space on each side for easy entry and exit. If room size is a primary concern, look for the space-saving version of this chair, or consider a different model from our catalog.

Common questions

What does zero gravity do in a massage chair?

Zero gravity recline positions your body so your knees are slightly above your heart, which reduces the load on your spine and allows the massage rollers to make deeper contact along the back. Most buyers find the massage feels more effective in zero gravity than in the upright position.
