• 

  Passion, wonder and creation like no other.

  According to Yoichi Okamoto, the lead development general manager of Nin Co., Ltd., says there are certain criteria for making a great massage chair.
  You must have passion for making great massage chairs.
  If you want to develop a massage chair that doesn't exist yet, even with years of experience or the know-how, you're not going to break through when you hit a brick wall.
  The key is to work with passion and energy that will help to break through the wall.

• The Quest for New Technology

  The latest technology of D-CORE is clear. D-CORE was created and designed for precise movement to relieve and relax even the deepest muscles. The pressure needed, the time it takes to heal the muscle soreness.
  
  This technology and innovation is not just a simple upgrade from a conventional massage chair. We're convinced that D-CORE, equipped with the latest technology, will be a new step forward to approach to health and wellness around the world.

  Measurement

  We measure the difference of health improvements from being treated by a professional chiropractor versus the effect of a massage chair. The conclusion we arrived is that with D-CORE, you'll have a similar result of that of a professional chiropractic treatment.

• The difficult part of the technique was how to transmit the force to the deep muscles without causing excessive pain. If the force is not applied correctly to the muscle, it won't reach the core of the muscle and will cause pain. We studied the movements of Mr. Isawa, a professional chiropractic and tested the structure, mechanism, control, and program of the chair. By analyzing data and repeating the tests, a new technology was developed. Core Shiatsu is a patent pending technology.

  Various ideas have been realized in D-CORE. For example, the shape of the rotor ball is designed to have a surface pressure similar to that of a human thumb. Even the softness of the surface and the strength of the core are similar to that of a human thumb.

• As for arm and leg massage, the movements of conventional massage chairs alone cannot reach the deep muscles and relieve stiffness. We have developed and perfected a new massage system that combines the compression method and acupressure. Its combined movements relieve stiffness throughout the entire body.

  Design that fits into any home

  Although D-CORE is equipped with many of the latest technologies, the exterior design is made of naturally occurring wood. The warmth of wood brings a natural ambiance to match any room in the house.
