Is this massage just a vibration or does it have the "rotating balls" type of action?

Just vibration, which I never use. I use it for the support and heat, which for me makes it possible to drive without too much back pain.

They do move. My mother's moves in a sort of undulating way to mimic how we might move if massaging someone. My mother is very sensitive an she tells me that it hurts to be massaged by it. However, the shiatsu is a deep tissue massage, so it is really going to give you the once over. Just be aware. I hope this helps.

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?? The chair vibrates in order to massage, if you're asking me if it has complex massage motions then no; But it does vibrate, and thus massage!

it uses the rolling ball massages. I bought it as a gift so I didn't use it much. But i think the rolling balls go around the whole foot - I believe they are on the bottom of the foot too.

Hi Michelle!Thank you for your inquiry!The item you're inquiring about only vibrates. None of our massaging chairs knead.AisteBisonOffice

The one I purchased does both. It isn't a strong vibration, but it does vibrate.

The "pressing " option is the smoothest and the most gentle. The "rollers" are not felt as much as the other options. A fleece throw between your back and that of the chair is the answer when the rollers are too strong. This chair is more than I expected. Especially for the price. You can adjust the "width of the massage also. This allows the Pressure where you want it. So yes it is a wave motion on the pressing option.

Vibrating. This was used on me at a salon and I wanted one but they were out so I bought mine here. They suggested that it's easier to use over a thin piece of clothing but I found it to be better used on bare skin. I have severe back pain (3 spine surgeries) and this does wonders in helping to relieve the kinked up muscles I get and helps me to fall asleep. Hope I've helped!

Its a very nice massage. I did return this machine so I am not the best to ask for a response

Rolling is just the massage rollers moving up and down. Kneading can be combined with motion up and down the back. It does not need to be stationary in one spot if you don't want it to be. Thanks BACKSTORE

It rolls, massaging your feet. It works the sole and the top of them. It also has a heat option. I love it!

Vibrate is the fastest setting. There are knobs inside but they don't physically rotate...there is a fast rotating pulse from knob to knob...very massage like. My husband has to have a shot in his back every 6 months for a back issue. This really soothes his aching back. I use it after I work out for sore back and thigh muscles. I also put my grandchildren on it and it puts them to sleep every time. I think it's the combination massage pulse and warmer because a lot of times it puts me to sleep.

It's one moving head with a couple of massager attachments. I use one attachment exclusively. Awesome massager, now have 4, included one in my travel bag. Has saved me countless trips to chiropractor. Can't live without it.

No. There is no vibration at all. In fact, my husband(the one who would actually use it) has already thrown it away because it doesn't work!

The external parts do not move. It gives a vigorous massage by strong vibrations inside the plastic housing. The external nubs are to concentrate vibration on specific muscles or trouble spots.

it vibrates nicely and it traps and rotate vitration and tapping. Its a good one. Its not a kneading massager but I like it to use once a week it makes me feel good and loosen my muscles on back.

It doesn't really vibrate but the balls move up and down your feet and may feel like vibration. It does feel wonderful on your feet.
