Is it worth it to buy a massage chair?

Yes, owning a massage chair will give you the benefits of a daily massage, but it is also very cost-effective. Let’s take a look at this scenario.

If you go to a massage therapist regularly or have just had a massage a few times, you know that the cost to have a massage isn’t cheap. Usually, you’ll spend somewhere around $50–120 for an hour massage, and massage therapy is most beneficial when done multiple times per week. Let’s just say that you have one massage a week every week, and the cost is $75 per session. At the end of the year, you will have spent $3,600. That is $3,600 that you don’t get back.

Now, if you invest that into your massage chair, your investment will have paid off in one year, and you can enjoy unlimited massages per year for multiple people and never pay a massage therapist again. Purchasing a massage chair is more affordable and will give relaxing massages for years to come.

It’s also important to say that to get the benefit of daily massage you need to have a 15-min massage at least 3–5 days per week. This would simply cost way too much for the average person if you were to visit a massage therapist this frequently.
