Review: Human Touch Model 1650 Massage Chair

The HT 1650 model manufactured by the human touch company is a massage chair which looks like a traditional recliner. In addition to raising the foot rest and lowering the chair back, the HT 1650 also has a number of massage functions. The HT 1650 has some unique features to enable it to look like a traditional recliner.

An important technology integrated into the human touch HT 1650 is the body scan. The body scan will locate the acupoints for your back, neck and shoulders. This information is then used to identify the acupoints to provide an acupressure type massage.

To perform the body scan, the remote control is used in switch into manual mode. The scan function can then be activated. It will make a path up and down your back to identify your unique act you pressure points. This information is then used to provide a custom massage based on your body readings.

You may also use the acupoint detection system with other types of massage techniques. It is commonly used in techniques such as shiatsu or acupressure massage. One of the drawbacks of the HT 1650 is that you must set your shoulder height. Many high-end massage chairs perform this automatically.

The HT 1650 comes with eight automatic massage programs. These are full body massage programs. They range from sports therapy to light stretching and warm-up massages. Each of these automatic programs are designed for a specific purpose.

The HT 1650 also comes with four manual massage techniques. You may use these techniques to provide different therapeutic relief. Use the kneading this massage to loosen tight muscles. If you want more invigoration, use the percussion massage.

Also in the manual mode, you may select to target the massage in a particular region. There are a number of different regions available and you may also target a specific point. This helps you to better control exactly where you want the massage applied.

An interesting feature integrated into the HT 1650 is its unique leg rest. The leg rest is flat on one side. However, when you flip it over, it has spaces to fit your legs and. These leg Wells are used to deliver a compression massage to the calves.

When you do not want to use the calf massager, you can flip it over to its flat side. This enables you to hide the calf massager when not in use. This adds to the aesthetic appeal of the HT 1650 massage recliner.

The HT 1650 works from a hardwired remote control. The remote control has two faces with function buttons. By utilizing two faces, the remote was slammed down. There is also a pocket of material which holds the remote when not in use.

The HT 1650 has a variety of massage techniques. It is different from most massage chairs in that it looks more like a traditional recliner. Personally, I find that the massage is a bit light for my taste. I prefer one that is a bit stronger and soothing for tight muscles.

Human touch provides warranty coverage of three years for parts on the HT 1650. You also get 90 days of in-home technician service. The warranty coverage of this massage recliner is fairly comprehensive.

The design of the HT 1650 is headed in the right direction. It is one of the few massage recliners which does not look like a typical massage chair. The main drawback on the aesthetics is that the chair looks very large. It is fairly comfortable to sit in and can compliment most rooms. If you are looking for a high-end massage recliner, then check this one out but make sure that it will meet your long term therapeutic needs.
