The pace of technology is simply amazing. Massage chair have been impacted by this phenomenal trend as well. As a result, massage chairs have become more and more complex and provide users with so many more features than just a few short years ago. Since massage chairs are increasing in complexity, you always want to know the type of warranty coverage you are getting.
The DR-7700 is made by Hitachi Electric Company and the warranty is covered by Sanyo. The DR-7700 has a 3 year warranty for the roller mechanism. This is the mechanism that provides the back massage which has motors and roller arms. Labor is covered for 1 year. Parts are covered for 1 year. In home technician service is available through Sanyo and they will cover it for the first year.
The DR-7700K is a zero gravity massage chair. Technically, zero gravity means that when you recline the chair your knees are above your heart. This position takes the pressure off of your spine and distributes it across your back. The Zero gravity position was originally developed by NASA as the safest position for astronauts when they are being propelled in a rocket out of Earth’s gravity.
One of the electronic features used to tailor the massage to your body is the physical shape sensor. The physical shape sensor takes a reading to know where your body is located in the chair. If you move, then the shape sensor takes a new reading. It then adjusts the massage based on your new position.
One of the electronic marvels contained in the DR 7700 is the Stiffness detector. The stiffness detector is a derivative of lie detector technology. It reads your pulse rate and your perspiration level. It senses changes in these two parameters and then correlates where tension and stiffness may reside in your body. The massage is then tailored to relieve these areas.
Sanyo has created four excellent automatic massage programs. The DR-7700 operates these automatic programs with the touch of a button. You can select from Recovery, Relax, Stiffness and Fine. Recovery, for instance, is geared to relieving the body after strenuous exercise. Each auto program has a particular need it is trying to address.
This massage chair recliner comes with heating elements in the foot wells of the chair. These heaters are designed to warm up the soles of your feet. This is especially effective when receiving the foot massage to soothe and relax your feet.
