A short conversational transcript (YouTube) where host Jeff Langmaid and a guest discuss how massage chairs evolved—from handheld thumpers and simple office-style chairs offering kneading, tapping, and rolling—to modern Fujiroki AI chairs that provide extensive movements (claimed 103), full-body compression, and multi-zone features (arms, calves, foot rollers). The speaker highlights mechanoreceptor stimulation and pain modulation benefits for chiropractors and patients.

Docs listening and watching. They might be thinking of massage chairs from the past. And you've been in the massage chair world for a little while now and I'd love for you to maybe highlight how chairs have come such a long way in recent years and specifically related to Fuji Oroki. Why are these chairs like so effective? For the chiropractor themselves, which is an interesting point and for their patients.
The old timers before me were using the thumper, the handheld massage. Then it went to the first chairs I've had way back when were the human touch that looked like an office chair really created about three movements, you know, kneading, tapping and rolling which again was very popular to now our Fujiroki AI. It produces 103 different movements during the massage program. It's evolved into complete body the compression and the arms, the calves, the foot rollers. So the mechanoreceptor stimulation you get from a massage chair is incredible. So just that alone can modulate paint.
