What We Look for & How We Rate Chairs Compared to Other Models

Reclining Feature

This chair has a reclining feature that allows you to assume a zero-gravity position, which helps to distribute your weight evenly across the chair and alleviates pressure on your spine. This position enables a more thorough and efficient massage that offers therapeutic relief to individuals experiencing back pain or discomfort.

Intensity settings & Coverage Area

The intensity settings and coverage area of this chair are also impressive. With five intensity settings, you can adjust the pressure of the massage to your liking. Additionally, the chair has a wide coverage area, reaching from your neck all the way down to your calves. This ensures that all major muscle groups are targeted and that you receive a full-body massage.

Heating Feature

We search for massage chairs with a heating feature, since warmth helps to promote blood flow and relax muscles.

Kneading feature

The heating feature is another great benefit of this chair. The heat helps to relax your muscles and increase circulation, promoting healing and reducing inflammation. This feature is particularly helpful for those with sore or stiff muscles.

Space Saving

The design and aesthetics of this chair are sleek and modern, making it a stylish addition to any home or office. The upholstery is also high-quality and easy to clean, ensuring that the chair will look great for years to come.

My Personal Experience Using Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Massage Chair

I am an expert in massage chairs and recommend the Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Massage Chair to anyone seeking a top-notch massage experience. With various features, it delivers a comprehensive and soothing massage.

One of the standout features of this chair is the 3D FlexGlide Massage Technology. Unlike other massage chairs that can be uncomfortable due to pinching and friction, this technology offers a seamless glide that promotes ultimate relaxation.

Furthermore, the chair features Warm Air Technology, which is patented and designed to target the lumbar area. This provides a soothing and relaxing massage for your muscles.

The chair has a special feature called the BodyMap PRO remote that lets you personalize your massage session by targeting particular areas that need attention. The remote is simple and easy to use, so you won’t have to waste time trying to understand how it works.

In terms of comfort, this chair has a 55-degree swivel base that allows you to enjoy a massage from any angle. This feature provides added flexibility, so you can find the perfect position for your massage.

The chair has a built-in ottoman that can be pulled out and used as a foot and calf massager. The massager uses CirQlation Technology to massage your legs in an upward direction and improve blood flow towards the body’s center.

This chair has rollers located in the back that use Flex, Tone, and Stretch techniques to mimic the movements of human hands. These techniques offer many therapeutic benefits to your spine.

The Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Massage Chair would be a great pick for those seeking a top-notch massage chair. It comes with a variety of features that deliver an indulgent and calming massage experience, and its straightforward layout ensures ease of use.

What Makes Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Massage Chair Stand Out from the Competition?

The Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Massage Chair stands out from its competition with its unique features. It is equipped with a 27” 3D Roller Track with FlexGlide Orbital Technology that delivers a very different massage experience free from the typical pinching and friction associated with other massage chairs.

It also has Patented Warm Air Technology that targets the lumbar area to provide additional relief of muscle tension. Another feature that makes it stand out is its BodyMap PRO which allows you to pinpoint where you want to feel better.

Compared to Other Chairs

Depending on what brand you buy, massage chairs vary in many ways. They will utilize massage technology differently in terms of quality and effectiveness. Nevertheless, massage chairs should meet a consistent set of standards. One of the most important characteristics of a perfect massage chair is that it excels in delivering variations in massages. As a result, these chairs are designed for maximum comfort. 

By flipping back the head pillow, unlike other similar chairs, you can experience a deep tissue neck massage that helps soothe stress and tension. Synca CirC+ massage chair is easy to operate using its wireless remote, so you can relax while getting a massage or just use it like a chair.  The zero gravity position relieves pressure from the lower back, which helps relieve muscle tension and stimulate blood flow. You can recline back into it to relax your muscles.  Your lower back will feel rejuvenated while in zero gravity with gentle hip compressions and lumbar massage therapy.

The Synca CirC+ massage chair offers a variety of features and benefits that make it an ideal choice for those looking for an effective and efficient massage experience.

In comparison, the Wholebody 7.1 massage chair features only an S-track but lacks the additional features found in the CirC+. The Synca CirC+ is therefore more suitable for those seeking a comprehensive massage experience. Ultimately, both chairs offer a great range of benefits and features that make them suitable for different users. It is important to evaluate your needs before making a purchase to ensure you select the best massage chair for you.

Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Massage Chair Notable Benefits & Features

3D FlexGlide Orbital Roller Technology

Enjoy the soothing, pain-relieving effects of sensitive massage technology. The FlexGlide technology allows you to bask in the bliss of ultimate relaxation without the pinching and friction associated with traditional massage chairs.

Warm Air Technology

Using patented Warm Air Technology, the Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 massage chair provides soothing warmth to your back and lumbar region. Instead of using a pad to heat the air, the massage chair uses air to warm the air, making the material last longer.

Retractable Ottoman

The retractable ottoman allows the Human Touch Wholebody 7.1 massage chair to be transformed into a regular recliner. Consequently, your massage chair blends into any home or office without looking out of place. When needed, the calf/foot massager is pulled out with a push of a lever.

BodyMap Pro

You will immediately receive a therapeutic, effective massage by pressing where you would like to feel better. Designed to relieve your toughest aches and pains, Human Touch FlexGlide’s massage engine automatically selects the right intensity for you.

Automatic Recline and Raise

Your feet can be independently raised or lowered, and the backrest can be reclined or raised with the touch of a button. As a result, your Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 massage will be in the right position.

Swivel Base

During massage, the Wholebody 7.1 massage chair’s base can be rotated up to 55 degrees. As a result, you will be able to rotate the massage chair while sitting in it to reach things more easily. The massage chair used by no other company has a swivel base.

Automatic Programs

Various therapeutic programs are available to meet your needs. Among them are Full, Upper, Lower, Sleep and Relax. All you need to do is press the button and the massage chair will handle everything. For a more complete massage experience, the Full Program will activate the massage roller along the back and the calf/foot massager. With the Upper Program, the roller only massages your back, whereas the Lower Program only stimulates the ottoman’s impellers. Stress and tension can be reduced with the Relax Program, while tension can be further reduced with the Sleep Program.

Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Warranty

The factory limited warranty for new WholeBody 7.1 massage chairs is 3 years, 2 years, and 1 year. A three-year limited warranty is included with the installation of the WholeBody 7.1 massage chair against structural defects (framing only – cosmetics aren’t covered). A two-year warranty is provided on all parts after the original purchase date. An extended warranty can extend the warranty to two years from the date of purchase (All 50 US states and most large Canadian cities).

A limited 90-day warranty is included with refurbished massage chairs. A small amount of assembly is required to assemble chairs prior to shipping. U.S. and Canadian residents cannot claim a warranty on chairs shipped outside their countries. Currently, the company offers in-home service in all 50 states of the US and in the majority of major cities in Canada.

What Do Users Say About Human Touch WholeBody 7.1 Massage Chair?


“There is nothing I dislike about this chair! It’s hard for most massage chairs to penetrate into my problem areas on my back because they are too gentle. My first effective chair is this one. In comparison with the giant pod-like chairs that cost at least twice as much as this one, I find it to be a better purchase. My neck is also massaged by the massage rollers, which is great.

There is no adjustable width for the calf massage, so skinny legs may not receive much benefit.

During reclining and raising the footrest, the massagers stop, and reclining and raising the footrest takes a long time. Despite this, I do not consider it a major annoyance, and it does not affect my rating for this fantastic machine.”
Brad K.
“It was intended to replace the chair that ‘bit the dust’ previously.
As well as the usual settings (upper, low, full back), it has more individual spots that it can focus on.
It is considerably smaller than my previous one, despite looking identical. Aside from not being nearly as padded and comfortable to sit in for a long time, it does the job for a short period of time. Because I am short, my leg hit the back of the seat in an awkward position because the seat and leg lift are a little shorter.
Overall, I am very satisfied with the chair and it meets my needs very well. Moreover, the smaller size is great for me since I only have a very small space to place it.”
Chester M.
