ABOUT THE BRAND
Why Choose a D.Core Massage Chair?
D.Core is the work of founder Soschu Inada, and the brand name is short for Deep Core. Its U.S. office is in Torrance, California.
The D.Core 2 is Dr. Eric Duncan's pick for anyone who values a human-like shiatsu feel, thanks to a 10-hand robot and rollers that also work the arms and calves. The newer D.Core 2 Max builds on it with a dedicated lower-body mechanism that runs alongside the upper robot.
COMMON QUESTIONS
D.Core Massage Chair FAQs
Answers to common questions about D.Core massage chairs.
What does the name D.Core mean?
It stands for "Deep Core," a nod to how deep into the muscle the brand aims its massage. You'll also see it written as DCore. They're the same brand.
Where are D.Core chairs made?
In Japan. Every current D.Core model, from the flagship D.Core 2 to the newer Max and the Cirrus and Stratus chairs, comes from Japan.
What does a D.Core massage feel like?
Closer to a person than a machine. The upper massage hands on the D.Core 2 work independently rather than in lockstep, and the textured silicone heads grip the muscle the way a shiatsu therapist's fingers would.
What's new in the D.Core 2 Max?
It's D.Core's first chair with two mechanisms. The 10-hand robot still handles your upper body, while a separate 3D mechanism works your legs and glutes in the same session, plus arm, neck and shoulder massage and an automatic stretch program.
