Hi Adam,
We know that our member student centers at West Chester, UC-Irvine, the Oasis Center at UC-Northridge, the University of Miami, University of South Florida, Florida Atlantic, Cal State-Channel Islands, Long Beach State, and The College of New Jersey, to name a few, either do or have had permanent massage chairs in their buildings, although not sure of their status now during omicron. Many others bring them in temporarily for wellness, destress, orientation, and other special events. We'll send you some contacts at a few of these locales in a private message. ACUI would love to identify a vendor in this business to join as an associate member as well!

Subject: Massage Chairs in the Union
Hi everyone,
My name is Adam Dunbar and I oversee our Student Center at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. We are currently looking at ways to incorporate Wellness for students into our building both passively and actively. One of ideas that has come up is that of massage chairs.
I am hoping some of you here may have experience with massage chairs in your Unions/Student Centers.
Specifically, I am looking for vendors, service contract providers for maintenance, usage policies/procedures, and overall feedback. Any information would be beyond helpful. My email is: adam_dunbar@uml.edu.
Thank You in Advance,
Adam
