Review about the Montage Elite Massage Chair

By Steve Esquire

It is important to compare warranty coverage between models and also between brands. There can be some major differences in coverage. Massage chairs are increasing in complexity and sophistication. Warranty coverage is your insurance against any defects in materials or workmanship. Just like insurance, you hope you never need it, but just in case it is there.

One of the first things to check out about any massage chair is the warranty coverage. A massage chair has many moving parts, a computer and other electrical components. Although the quality of these chairs is outstanding, sometimes problems do occur. You want to make sure that your relaxation does not become frustration, because you did not get sufficient warranty coverage.

Let's take a look at the warranty coverage with the Omega Montage Elite. The first is the frame of the chair which has 5 years of coverage. You get parts coverage for 3 years. Labor is covered for 3 years also. With the Montage there is one year of free parts shipping included. Field service is also available where a technician will come out to your home and make repairs. Omega covers this for the first 90 days.

Automatic programs are pre-programmed massages designed by the manufacturer to maximize the functions of the massage chair. The Montage Elite comes with five different automatic programs. Each of the five automatic programs is developed around a theme and includes the following: Activation, Relaxation, Vitality, Night and Morning. Activation and Vitality are more vigorous programs providing deeper massage therapy. Vitality is somewhat in the middle. Morning and Night are similar to warming up for Morning and warming down for Night.

With the Omega Montage Elite massage chair there are four manual massage techniques. The techniques include kneading, tapping, finger press and shiatsu. The kneading is great for loosening tight muscles. The tapping helps to invigorate the muscles and increase blood flow. Finger press is a rolling type massage that helps to relieve pressure on the cervical discs. Shiatsu is great for relieving and soothing tight muscles.

Your lower body is in for a treat with the Montage Elite. Omega incorporates an air compression style massage for the buttocks, hips, calves and feet. Air bags are used to deliver a compression style massage. The compression style massage uses a squeeze, hold and release pattern. This is very soothing and relieving for tight and sore muscles.

Another excellent feature of the Montage Elite is the traction system for the lower body. The traction system will stretch and elongate the lower extremities. It uses the leg rest to stretch you from the hips, legs and ankles. The foot airbags are activated to firmly hold your feet. The leg rest will come up to its full upright position. Then the leg rest will slowly be lowered and will stretch out your lower body as it does.

The Montage Elite also comes with full body heat. Heat is excellent to reduce swelling and increase blood flow. You can set the heat for the chair back, seat or leg rest and control them individually. Do you want to relax your mind? The Elite has a built in MP3 player to listen to your favorite music. Headphones are included to help you tune out the world and relax. You can even synchronize the massage movements to the rhythm of the music. This massage chair recliner has it all!

If you are looking for the best of the best, the Montage Elite has everything going for it. It has a stylish design and soft yet durable synthetic leather upholstery. The massage programs provide very effective massage therapy to relieve aches and pains. There is the lower body traction system to stretch out your legs. You can apply heat to the area of the body as appropriate. Put on the headphones and let go of your thoughts as you relax to the music and the massage chair provides you a soothing and totally relaxing experience. This is what the Montage Elite massage chair is all about. - 16650
