I didnt think you can find a massage chair that is 100% comfortable because I already bought 2 trying to find one that would work for me. I was wrong, I just got the new Breakthrough 6, Ver 4 and this chair is heads to toe better than any chair I've tried. I have a lot of shoulder problems so most chairs just aggrevate it more. The Breakthrough 6v4 comes with different size comfort pad 1/2 inch, 1 inch, 2 inch, that made the massage super soft on my shoulders. It feels wonderful when you get a light massage around the area that hurts so often. I did a boatload of research before buying this chair and it was the only one I could find that is an L track design that has true deep tissue 3D. I don't know how they did it but they made 3D along the entire track. Many chairs on Amazon say they are 3D and will do deep tissue but when you get the chair, you can't change the intensity of the back roller. If you can't change the intensity of the backroller, it's a 2D chair. 2D chairs are good, it just doesn't do deep deep tissue. You get what you pay for. I just don't like companies calling something 3D when it's not. I have an engineering background, 3D means the chair has an extra motor on the rollers that pushes the rollers forward to do deep, deep tissue. This is especially good around the neck and shoulders. The Breakthroug 6,v4 is fantastic because it has 3D from your head to your butt. I have a lot of pain in my lowerback and a lot of chairs, the rollers don't go far enough. The rollers on this chair goes so far it does deep tissue everywhere. This chair is very well built. You can see it in the thickness of the leather. The leather is a lot thicker than the other massage chairs I have. It's very soft. Even the stitches looks like they are hand sewn. Also this is the only chair that offers massage techniques from around the world. When I first started reading into it I didn't think that would be a big deal. However, when I start using it, I realized how wonderful it was. Feels like I'm in a different country getting a massage. My favorite settings are Thai Treatment because of its strong kneading and body stretches; Ancient Egyptian mode because it focuses on my waist and back; and Hawaiian Therapy for its short, leisurely sessions that leave me refreshed, feels like I'm on vacation in Hawaii getting a massage on the beach. I can’t say enough about this chair, because I use it more than all the other chairs I have. Read more
I knew I wanted a massage chair, but knew little about them. After spending a couple of hours reading as many online reviews as I could, I noticed that Medical Breakthrough chairs were mentioned frequently and highly rated. Problem was that they also appeared to only sell direct to the public, so I couldn’t find a model in a store to try. I did find two local stores that carried similar chairs in the $6K to $10K range, so I was able to try these and get a sense for the chairs. When I searched Amazon I saw the Medical Breakthrough 6 ver 4 chair listed, and in my price range. Now came a dilemma, the 3 to 4 chairs I tried at my local stores were very nice, but they didn’t blow me away. These chairs were also generally rated very well on Amazon, but the only model that had a 5.0 rating was the MB 6 ver 4. And every review I read described a level of performance of the MB 6 ver 4 that exceeded the chairs I had tried. So with some hesitancy I ordered the MB 6 ver 4, and it was well worth the risk. Great customer support got the chair shipped to me cross-county very quickly. This chair is a beast, so make sure you have some help when moving it. The chair is very easy to assemble and is extremely well made with consistently high-quality materials. A small problem with the foot rollers was quickly resolved by the customer support staff. And with the many different types of massage programs available using various combinations of air cells, foot rollers, 3D L track back rollers and a zero gravity position, this chair easily outperforms other chairs that cost twice as much.

This is a real massage chair. It has several routines that provide different types of massages. You can sit for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes at a time, then change routines if you want to work on different parts of your body. The heating feature is nice and the zero gravity (tilt all the way back) feature is nice. It is big, but it slides forward to take a smaller footprint in the room. Everyone who comes to the house takes their turn in this chair for multiple sessions. There are pads provided to reduce some of the impact, depending on what a body can take, which makes it work for everyone. I have spent hours in this chair and it is so comfortable that I usually end up falling asleep. It is more than I expected, which makes it an unexpected pleasure.. Karen, in the sales team was an absolute pleasure to work with and there is always someone in the company to speak with if you have any questions. I have friends who are planning to get this same chair, they are so impressed with it. Two thumbs up from me! Read more
