The Best High-End Massage Chairs

Daiwa Supreme Hybrid

The first on this list is Daiwa's Supreme Hybrid. It is considered by many to be a “game changer” in the massage chair industry when it came out but with its expensive price comes the question "Is it worth it?" 

Daiwa’s Supreme Hybrid has so many things to offer that you cannot find in your regular massage chair. To begin with, it is the first to introduce a new massage chair category that didn't exist before -- the Split Track. What it is is an L-track system that is also able to facilitate a full inversion stretch which is only possible with S-track systems. This allows for a deeper and more natural stretch to better release tension in the muscles and improve flexibility.

This design is also equipped with a 6-roller system, which uses separate rollers to simultaneously massage the upper and lower body. The 2 upper massage rollers focus on the neck, shoulders, and upper back, while the remaining 4 rollers concentrate on massaging the lower back and legs. This gives the chair the capability to provide a more comprehensive and targeted massage than the regular 4-roller massage chair.
