The Best Chair Massage Routine

Chair massage professionals often like using predetermined chair massage routines when doing seated massage.

Why?

One reason is that chair massage was developed by David Palmer who was a strong proponent and educator of a ancient Japanese style of massage called Amma. Like many of the Eastern styles of massage, the techniques of Amma massage are applied in a systematic and sequential fashion. So as Palmer developed chair massage he carried that approach with him, referring to this approach as a "massage kata" rather than a massage routine.

This history aside, there are some good reasons to use a chair massage routine.

Chair massage routines:­
*Provide for a level of quality control. This is especially when chair massage practitioners are working together as a group which they often do.
*Become automatic. When you are massaging dozens of people in a public space there are distractions. Having a chair massage routine ensures that you don't become distracted and leave out important parts of your massage.
*It provides a framework on which you can build a longer massage. It's a solid foundation so to speak.
