The most important component of a massage chair is the massage rollers. There are three categories: 2D, 3D, and 4D.

In 2D mode, the rollers move in two directions: up and down in one dimension, and right and left in the other—for example, for a shoulder massage.

The 3D function also includes a depth adjustment of up to 12 cm. This results in two effects: a significantly more intense massage in the neck and back. This function also allows you to control the depth and thus adjust the massage intensity.

Furthermore, when using 4D, the speed can be adjusted to create an extremely pleasant massage effect that mimics a natural hand massage.
