The human touch company makes a broad range of massage chairs. One of their high-end models is the HT 1650. Unlike most massage chairs, the HT 1650 looks more like a traditional recliner. It is quite a large chair and provides full body massage capability. We peel back the layers of the HT 1650 to reveal some of its more important features.

The HT 1650 comes with a functioning to detect your acupoints in your back. This is accomplished by performing a scan of your neck, shoulders and back. This function must be activated by selecting a manual massage function.

The HT 1650 will perform a scan when it is in the manual mode. A remote control comes with the HT 1650 where different functions are located. Once the body scan is activated, then it will send the rollers up menu down your back. Sensors are mounted on the rollers to identify your acupoints.

The acupoint detection system is used in conjunction with certain massage techniques such as shiatsu. Unlike other massage chairs, you must set the scan manually. You must manually set your shoulder height in order to perform an accurate scan of your back.

The HT 1650 comes with eight automatic massage programs. These are full body massage programs. They range from sports therapy to light stretching and warm-up massages. Each of these automatic programs are designed for a specific purpose.

The HT 1650 also comes with four manual massage techniques. You may use these techniques to provide different therapeutic relief. Use the kneading this massage to loosen tight muscles. If you want more invigoration, use the percussion massage.

Manual massage courses focus on specific areas of the back and neck. You can select the area that you would like to target. It also includes pinpointing so you can focus the massage on one specific point on your back or neck.

An interesting feature integrated into the HT 1650 is its unique leg rest. The leg rest is flat on one side. However, when you flip it over, it has spaces to fit your legs and. These leg Wells are used to deliver a compression massage to the calves.

When you do not want to use the calf massager, you can flip it over to its flat side. This enables you to hide the calf massager when not in use. This adds to the aesthetic appeal of the HT 1650 massage recliner.

The HT 1650 works from a hardwired remote control. The remote control has two faces with function buttons. By utilizing two faces, the remote was slammed down. There is also a pocket of material which holds the remote when not in use.

You get a wide variety of massage treatments with the HT 1650. Although, I liked the look of the recliner, the massage therapy is not quite as effective as I would like. It seems that it is a little light for a high-end massage chair. This can be a concern as you will build up tolerance to the massage chair through time. You want to make sure that your long-term needs are met.

Human touch provides warranty coverage of three years for parts on the HT 1650. You also get 90 days of in-home technician service. The warranty coverage of this massage recliner is fairly comprehensive.

We liked the bold design of the HT 1650 massage chair by human touch. It is nice to see that many of the massage technologies can be successfully hidden and to a traditional looking recliner. The main concern that we have with the HT 1650 massage chair is the strength of its massage therapy. It has a number of different programs, but most are fairly weak from our therapeutic point of view. However, there are many solid features and the HT 1650 massage chair.
