Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The rising number of massage parlors and physiotherapy clinics is notably driving the massage equipment market growth. With the fast-growing urban middle class, several massage parlors are trying to keep pace with the needs of the population. Customers are looking for expert massage services and diverse options provided by advanced massage chairs. The electric massage chair is a new technique that involves gentle electrical stimulation to reduce and alleviate pain. Physiotherapy is also gaining momentum among users.
Physiotherapy plays a significant role in delivering results in the healthcare industry. They help people with an injury or illness by aiding in pain relief. Physiotherapy clinics offer consultation and massage therapy with the help of advanced massage equipment, such as massage chairs that offer humanized massage mechanisms. Therefore, the growing demand for physiotherapy with the help of massage chairs is expected to accelerate the growth of the global massage equipment market during the forecast period.
The introduction of portable massage equipment is a major trend in the massage equipment market. Portable massage equipment or handheld massage equipment has gained traction among different groups of customers. Handheld massage equipment offers an effective way of providing comfort to users by transmitting the right amount of pressure and vibrations to the muscles. The handheld massage equipment can easily be carried while traveling to distant places without occupying major space in the traveler's luggage. Moreover, these types of massage equipment provide instant relief for pain in different parts of the body, such as neck pain, shoulder pain, and foot pain.
The technological upgradation of handheld massage equipment, coupled with greater awareness among people, has played a vital role in further increasing the revenue from the portable massage equipment segment. For instance, Panasonic Corp. offers an advanced Handheld Massager to alleviate muscle pain. The massager delivers three different types of vibration massages using a 360-degree swivel cord. The company also offers a smartphone-sized, portable, full-body massager (low-frequency electric therapy equipment). This massager is very useful for people who want to get quick massages during short breaks. Thus, the introduction of portable massage equipment is one of the growing trends, which is expected to drive the growth of the global massage equipment market during the forecast period.
Shifting to traditional massage therapies is a major challenge in the massage equipment market growth. Traditional massage therapy is recognized as a major way of alleviating body pain and health problems. This involves the pressing or rubbing of muscles and other soft tissues with the hands, fingers, forearms, elbows, or feet. There are more than 80 massage therapy styles followed across the world, with wide variations in the techniques, pressure, and movements that they use.
Some massage therapists use essential oils, such as bergamot, cedarwood, chamomile, eucalyptus, and lavender, in the massage lotion, which have an additional effect on the body and enhance their services. Adding essential oil has proven health benefits, such as reducing anxiety, depression, insomnia, nausea, and pain. Some of the major benefits of traditional massage therapy are reduced stress, improved blood circulation, reduced chronic stiffness and back pain, elimination of toxins, etc. Hence, the above benefits of traditional massage practices can hamper the growth of the global massage equipment market during the forecast period.
