Panasonic Real Pro Ultra Massage Chair
The new massage chair line by Panasonic is called the Real Pro Ultra. The Real Pro Ultra is a technology platform developed by Panasonic which is used is the recliners that constitute this series. This is the latest generation of Panasonic massage chairs. Panasonic has been making massage loungers for the last 30 years.

Some of the advanced features included in the Real Pro Ultra massage chair line are very innovative. They have a new advanced three-dimensional body scan. This is able to create a virtual map of your back while also locating acupressure points. You also find the new Junetsu massage technique.

One of the interesting advancing technologies from Panasonic is there quad style rollers. These rollers are actually able to move in three dimensions. Most roller systems only move and to dimensions or in the X and Y coordinates. The quad style rollers are able to move in a third.

What makes the quad style rollers unique is it works in conjunction with the new three-dimensional body scan technology. Panasonic has developed a system to measure your back in three-dimensional space. In essence this system creates a virtual map of your back which can detect the curvature of your spine. The quad style rollers are then program to follow this virtual map.

A new massage technique has been unveiled in the Real Pro Ultra series. The Junetsu massage technique is otherwise known as ultra fine kneading. This type of massage creates small circular motions using increasing pressure to thoroughly penetrate through the muscle tissue.

Most of the massage techniques which were part of the Real Pro Elite series of massage chairs are also incorporated into the new series. You can expect to find massage programs including shiatsu, Hawaiian, Swedish and also many others. This gives you a variety of different techniques to choose from.

Now, for the confusing part of the model numbers: There are a number of different models which fall under the Real Pro Ultra line. These are model numbers EP 30003 up to EP 30007. The entry level massage chair for this series is the EP 30003 and the top-of-the-line is the EP 30007.

The EP 30005 and the EP 30007 are manufactured in Japan by Panasonic. Whereas, the EP 30003, EP 30004 and the EP 30006 are all made in China. It is interesting that the models made in Japan are supposedly of superior quality but have substantially less warranty coverage than those constructed in China.

You will find a lower body stretching system as part of the technology platform and the Real Pro Ultra line. The lower body stretching is it used to stretch the body from the hips to the ankles. The recliner uses the leg rest to the fact the stretching of the lower half of the body.

An interesting stretching system is incorporated in some of the models for the upper body. The upper body stretching system must come with the arm massage. The arm massage will be used to hold the arm and hand in place while it recline the chair back. This is good for stretching out the arms and shoulders.

Panasonic has a solid line of chairs with the Real Pro Ultra series. The chairs do vary somewhat and there features but tend to look very similar. The only strange thing about the series is that the models made in Japan have a shorter warranty than those made in China.

As one of the first companies in the massage chair industry, Panasonic has a good range of features and massage techniques for every type of user. The massage chairs come in the same style but very and the exact features per model. Check out the Panasonic Real Pro Ultra line as one of the benchmarks in your search for the right massage chair.
