$400 for the entire year, essentially. I got once a week.

Some nurses go 2-3 times per week!

My wife used to have benefits like that, I was going 2x a week, it was awesome lol.

I still go probably every 3 weeks but not as awesome.

That's what my RMT charges, I usually do 45mins @ $110.00. The RMT I see cleans up, I was literally her first client when she opened up her location about 10 years ago, she now has 3 locations, RMT's, Chiros, Physios, Accupun., Natural Paths all working for her, she has to be making bank.

Chiro charges $75.00 for 15 minutes so not a bad deal.

^ Both can be true. There are chairs with "mechanisms"!

Claiming it under benefits might be kind of a challenge though

You have to ask if they provide a receipt and have a registered massage therapist. Bonus if they offer direct billing!

unit buys massage chair to fix bad back, it doesn't work

unit returns massage chair, hurts back even more in the process

unit goes back into store and buys different massage chair, it also doesn't work

unit returns second massage chair, breaks back completely, dies

Revscene sad, but also proud of their brother for working the system

this is where you need to get a buddy with a truck and a ramp.... then you roll it up onto the truck bed easy peasy! all these massage chairs have wheels underneath.

Has the recent return policy update from Costco impact returns for stuff like massage chairs?
