“Gettin’ Your Massage Chair Clean & Fresh”
We all love the intense massage our massage chair gives us, but too often they get overlooked when it comes to regular cleaning. As it can be an expensive purchase, getting your massage chair clean and fresh is not a job to be taken lightly. Fortunately, there are specific steps you can take to make sure your massage chair gets the TLC it deserves.
How Clean Does Your Massage Chair Need to Be?
Before you start, it’s good to ask yourself the following question: how clean does my massage chair need to be? The answer is simple – clean enough to prevent dust, germs, and bacteria from growing. This means regular dusting and wiping it down with a damp cloth to get rid of any dirt or grime.
Dust — Don’t Sweat It
Start by lightly dusting the chair with a soft cloth. Pay special attention to all of the crevices and folds, as dirt and dust can easily accumulate in these spots. When dusting, move the cloth in slow, circular motions to ensure an even distribution.
Clear the Cushions
Remove the cushions and gently brush them with a soft bristled brush. This will get rid of any dirt, lint, and pet hair that may have found its way into the cushions. If the cushions seem particularly dingy, you can dampen them with a little water and mild detergent and then let them air dry.
Wipe Down the Upholstery
Give the upholstery a quick once-over with a damp cloth. If any stains are present, treat them with a mild detergent and water solution. To prevent the upholstery from becoming overly wet, use a spray bottle and apply the solution in short bursts. Wipe off any excess fluid with a dry cloth.
Finish Off with a Fabulous Fragrance
After cleaning, why not make your massage chair feel and smell as fresh as possible? Choose an aromatherapy oil with calming properties and add a few drops to the fabric of the chair. Or, alternatively, you can use a commercial air freshener or fabric refresher.
Ensure Your Chair Stays Clean
Unfortunately, a massage chair cleaning session could be in order sooner rather than later if you don’t take steps to maintain it. To keep dirt and germs from building up follow these simple steps:
• Vacuum the chair every couple of weeks
• Keep the chair covered when it’s not in use
• Regularly sweep and mop any floors it may come in contact with
And there you have it — now you know how to keep your massage chair clean and in top condition! With these few steps, you can enjoy your relaxing massage in a clean, fragrant environment.
