Real Pro Ultra 4D Human Intelligence Massage System

Unequivocally the most precise and versatile massage mechanism on the market, the Real Pro Ultra 4D Human Intelligence mechanism goes beyond seamlessly moving in 3D space and authentically delivering a wide range of massage styles. By drawing real-time data from body sensors, it adjusts its speed and intensity to your body’s unique needs at the moment, just like a human massage therapist. Learn More >

1080P Acupoint Body Scan

The RealPro 4D Massage Mechanism locates 1080 individual points on your back and neck, creating a virtual map so that it can perform the correct movements with the right amount of pressure to each part of your body. No other massage mechanism performs a more precise scan or delivers a massage that is more customized for you. Learn More >

Infrared Heated Rollers

Infrared heated massage rollers generate soothing warmth to help relax sore, tense muscles. With heating elements located directly on the massage roller assembly, the MA73 delivers the point-specific heat you feel from the thumbs and palms of a massage therapist’s hands.

Position and Force Microprocessor

The Real Pro Ultra mechanism constantly feeds information back to the chair’s Position and Force Microprocessor, adjusting its movements based on this feedback. Precision and responsiveness allow the MA73 to faithfully replicate the intricate kneading movements of a variety of expert massage techniques.

Rotating Ottoman

Designed to seamlessly blend into any decor between massages, the MA73 doubles as a stylish, comfortable armchair. Simply attach the ultra-soft headrest pad, fold the armrests and rotate the massaging ottoman neatly into place.

Customization and Memory

All of the massage features of the MA73 can be adjusted from gently relaxing to therapeutically firm. Air cell compression intensity and the roller massage intensity are each independently adjustable. You can even program and save your favorite settings for up to three users.

Full Body Air Massage

Thirty-three soothing air cells apply compression massage to the shoulders, hips, thighs, buttocks, calves, feet, forearms, and hands. The MA73’s extensive air cell array is carefully positioned for maximum benefit and insightfully programmed for maximum relaxation effect. Compression and release are sequenced to faithfully replicate the motions of a real massage therapist.

Junetsu Ultra Kneading

Junetsu Ultra Kneading massage techniques involve tight, spiral movements that quickly and effectively loosen tight muscles. The target zones benefit from increased blood flow and improvement in the pliability of muscle fibers. Junetsu Ultra Kneading also does an exceptional job relaxing the neck and shoulders to help improve mobility, range of motion, and comfort. These techniques are proprietary and exclusive to Panasonic massage chairs.

Versatile Massage Actions

The MAJ7 performs complex junetsu kneading and shiatsu massage movements, plus rolling, tapping, kneading, and ultra-slow kneading techniques to mimic the versatility of an experienced massage therapist

Customer Reviews

October 29, 2021

I purchased my first Panasonic massage chair 20 years ago. I needed to do a few minor repairs over the years (on my own), but it held up. The original chair was very comfortable to sit in and provided a reasonable massage. Since the first was very comfortable and lasted 20 years, I decided to purchase this one sight unseen. There were no stores anywhere near me to check it out. This chair far exceeds the original in terms of the massage functions. I am very comfortable with the massage features and find that a massage before bed helps me sleep better. The one drawback with this chair is that it is not ergonomically designed for sitting. It is reasonably comfortable when doing the massage, but I found the original chair to be far more comfortable to sit in. I sit in the chair 90% of the time and do the massage 10% of the time. If I had the chance to try it out before purchasing, I may not have gotten it because it is not ergonomically designed, but I certainly need to make it work since I have it now. I am testing different cushions and pillows to try to find comfortable positions for sitting and watching television, I expect I will be able to use the chair reasonably over time. I don’t know how I would feel if I had a chance to compare this chair to the hundred competitor chairs that are advertised at half the price if I had the opportunity to try them side by side. The one feature I liked with this one is hiding the foot massage area so it has a regular foot rest, I did not see others with the ability to do this. My hope is that the investment pays off, that this chair will function for at least half as long as the first Panasonic.

This was a replacement for a 20 year old Panasonic massage chair. The new model is infinitely better. Would highly recommend it to anyone interested in a high end massage recliner.
