Keep your massage chair clean and protected.
Proper care helps preserve the appearance, comfort and performance of your massage chair. Follow this simple ChairWellness guide to clean your chair safely and protect it for years to come.
Start with these important safety precautions.
Massage chairs contain electrical components, moving mechanisms and upholstered surfaces. Taking a few simple precautions before cleaning helps protect both you and your chair.
Turn the chair off first
Always switch the massage chair off and unplug it from the electrical outlet before beginning any cleaning or maintenance.
Keep liquids away from electronics
Never allow water, cleaning solution or other liquids to enter electrical openings, controls, speakers, power connections or internal components.
Know what to use and what to avoid.
Upholstery and synthetic leather can be sensitive to harsh chemicals. Use gentle cleaning methods and always check your specific chair's care instructions.
Recommended
- Use a soft, clean microfiber or similar cloth.
- Use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water for appropriate spot cleaning.
- Test any new cleaning product on a small, inconspicuous area first.
- Wipe cleaned surfaces dry with a clean towel.
- Use a vacuum carefully around seams and crevices to remove dust.
Avoid
- Do not use bleach or strong disinfectants unless your chair manufacturer specifically approves them.
- Avoid alcohol-based cleaners, solvents and abrasive cleaning products.
- Do not spray liquid directly onto the chair.
- Do not soak upholstery or allow moisture to remain on the surface.
- Do not use direct heat to dry upholstery.
A simple routine for everyday chair care.
Regular light cleaning is generally better than allowing dust, oils and debris to accumulate over time.
Power Down
Turn the chair off, disconnect the power and allow moving components to stop completely before cleaning.
Remove Dust
Gently wipe the exterior and use a vacuum around seams, gaps and crevices where dust can collect.
Spot Clean
For suitable surfaces, use a slightly damp soft cloth with mild soap and water. Do not saturate the material.
Wipe Dry
Finish by wiping the surface with a clean dry towel and allow it to air dry naturally before use.
Protect the surfaces you use most.
Your massage chair's upholstery comes into regular contact with skin, clothing, dust and everyday household debris. Gentle maintenance helps preserve its appearance and comfort.
Clean regularly
Wipe frequently used surfaces to prevent dust and residue from building up.
Be gentle
Avoid aggressive scrubbing that can damage or prematurely wear the surface.
Keep moisture controlled
Use only the amount of moisture necessary for the cleaning task and dry the surface afterward.
Follow model instructions
Materials and finishes can differ between massage chair models, so always prioritize the instructions supplied with your chair.
Protect your chair from prolonged direct sunlight.
If your massage chair sits in direct sunlight for extended periods, consider covering exposed areas when the chair is not being used. Prolonged sunlight may contribute to fading or material wear over time.
Build a simple maintenance routine.
A few minutes of routine care can help keep your ChairWellness massage chair looking clean and ready for your next session.
