What is a massage cushion? 

A massage cushion is a massage device which comes in the form of a small cushion with curved shapes. Rotating massage balls are placed behind elastic braided fabric, and are activated when the device is plugged into an electrical outlet.  

The massage cushion is primarily designed to release blockages and muscular pain in the neck and cervical areas. Its curved shape is in fact specially designed to follow the line of the bottom of the skull, and allow the head and neck to adapt perfectly to the cushion. 

It is an effective therapeutic solution for muscle pain and stress, and above all the low-budget replacement solution for a massage session in an institute. 💆‍♂

What is a Shiatsu massage cushion?

Shiatsu is a traditional relaxation method originating from Japan. Shiatsu uses pressure from the fingers, but also from the palms, elbows, knees or even feet depending on the practitioner, on specific energy points located along the meridians.These pressures and their intensity make it possible to unblock the energy knots present in the body, to free the circulation of energy and fluids, and to relax the muscular knots. Massage methods such as kneading, vibrations or stretching can also be used depending on the patient's ailments. 

The Magnet-Zen Shiatsu Massage Cushion uses the same massage techniques as traditional Shiatsu massage to effectively relieve muscle tension. 

Four strategically placed massage balls target the most common blockage points, and provide pleasant and liberating massage movements. Not only are the muscles massaged so that they are more relaxed, but the massages carried out by the rotating balls providea feeling of general well-being and relaxation, thus helping to reduce stress effectively. 🙏

Thanks to its ergonomic shape, the Magnet-Zen massage cushion can be used for all parts of the body, to provide a complete home Shiatsu session.
