Romantic Adventure In Antigua Guatemala

Monday, September 20th, 2010

I love living in Antigua because in it you will find everything really close to you. In this case my husband and I wanted to have a romantic day out, so first we went out for lunch at a really cute restaurant called Cafe Flor where they serve really good Thai food. Then we went for a prvate salsa class which turned out to be an extra fun adventure.

And at the end of the day we visited a luxurious hotel of Antigua called Mezon Panza Verde for a romantic dinner. When we were making the reservation they suggested a dinner up in the roof of the hotel where they have a Cupula. This sounded great to me because it was just what I wanted: A super private and romantic evening so i took the oportunity.

When we got there and before they took us to our table we had to do some waiting in the lobby which was not what I wanted but it was ok because it wasn’t too long and it gave me some chance to take more pictures. Then a member of their staff took us to where our table was. To get there we had to walk across the terrace of the hotel, sadly it was a bit cloudy but we still could see the outskirts of the beautiful Agua Volcano.

When we got there I couldn’t believe how absolutely beautiful it was! La Cupula is this beautiful tiny room where they had a beautifully decorated table with candles and roses.

This ended up being a perfect day out and romantic dinner where my husband and I got the chance to relax and just be together after a long time of not having time for ourselves.

Bottom line is: Antigua isn’t just a beautiful city with lots of places to visit and photograph, it is also a great place for romantic getaways and family vacations.

Product Review: Sanyo HEC DR6700K Health Massage Chair

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

We will provide an evaluation of the luxury Sanyo HEC-DR6700 health massage chair. The DR 6700 is made by Hitachi Electric Company for Sanyo. This product review will touch on some of the cool electronic features, massage therapy functions and warranty coverage. We present our analysis of the DR-6700 massage chair recliner.

Warranty is the first thing we want to cover and get out of the way. We are amazed at the pace in which features and functions are being added to massage chair. On the flip side of this we also advise our customers to make sure they get sufficient warranty coverage for their long term protection.

So what is the warranty coverage for the Sanyo HEC-DR6700 massage chair? Sanyo makes it easy, since they offer the same warranty on all chairs. That is good for their low end chairs but less sufficient for their higher end models. There warranty is 3 years on the roller mechanism, 1 year parts and labor, and 1 year in home technician service. The 1 year parts and labor is a bit cheap for a high end chair, but the 1 year in home service is

The Sanyo 6700 is equipped with automatic programs that run the entire massage functions of the chair. These start at the touch of a button. There are 4 of these programs. Each of them targets certain situations of which they are named. The categories they have labeled are Stiffness, Fine, Relax and Recovery.

Manual massage techniques are also available in the DR6700. These manual treatments use one particular technique like kneading which can then be used to cover a particular spot or region of the body. These techniques are great where you want a specific type of relief. The other manual massage techniques include Shiatsu, Grip, Kneading, Tapping and Combination Kneading/Tapping.

When in manual mode, you can select many different options to suit your needs at that moment. You can adjust the intensity of the massage to be more or less penetrating. You can adjust the width of the rollers for certain manual massages. This lets you get more around the spine or you can get a wider coverage to get the shoulders.

Another set of functions integrated into the DR 6700 are manual massage courses. Manual massage courses will move the roller mechanism in a certain zone or region of the body. For instance, you can select neck and shoulders as the region and then select the kneading massage. The kneading will be done exclusively in this area for the duration of the massage.

Sanyo is know for its advanced electronics, are any integrated into the DR-6700 massage chair? Yes, there are some very interesting electronics, such as a stiffness detector. The stiffness detector is based on lie detector technology. It monitors your pulse rate and also your perspiration level. It then feeds this data to the computer which then can identify where then tension is residing in your body and adjusts the massage program.

Need a good lower body massage? This Sanyo model comes equipped with an air compression massage system for the lower body. A compression massage uses a squeezing action to relieve tired, aching muscles. The air compression massage targets the legs, calves and feet. They have also integrated a heater to warm the bottoms of your feet.

The DR-6700 massage chair has some very nice features to compliment its massage therapy. The stiffness detector is certainly unique, but actually pretty effective. Good thing it doesn’t ask you questions! The manual massage treatments like the Grip massage are fabulous. We do like the automatic programs that Sanyo has developed. We wish the labor for the warranty coverage was a little longer. Overall, this is a solid health massage chair that can meet your long term massage therapy needs.

Be informed and take your time and analyze the best massage chair for your requirements.

Going Out Looking For A Relaxing Recliner?

Saturday, December 5th, 2009

There is a new class of recliner that has come on the market just recently. You have the traditional recliner which typically has a lever to raise the leg rest. On the other side of the spectrum you have a massage chair. While a traditional recliner is comfortable to sit in, many times a massage chair is not. This is where any relaxation recliner fills the gap.

The relaxation recliner has the best of both worlds. It is comfortable to sit in just like a traditional recliner but it also has therapeutic massage features. However, it does not look like a big and bulky massage chair; instead it looks more like a sleek and contemporary styled recliner.

A relaxation recliner has a power recline feature. You don’t need to mess with a lever, when you can push a button. This enables you to find the right position of the chair back and the leg rest to suit your mood. This makes it easy to be comfortable and to change your position as you enjoy your leisure time.

One of the most important features of any recliner is to complement your decoration. Many recliners are simply ugly. The new generation of relaxation recliners are styled elegantly to enhance your home or office.

Another thoughtful feature is the built-in remote panel. Thank goodness they are not giving you another remote control in your living room. This keeps it simple and make sure that you never lose your remote for your relaxation recliner.

Relaxation recliner is come with MP3 players and headphones. What better way to relax then to listen to soothing music. The headphones help to cut out the ambient noise allowing you to drift off to the music. This is a great way to relax in your comfortable recliner.

There are a range of different massage and therapeutic features to provide for a variety of needs. These recliners come with an air massage system, soothing vibration massage and full body heat. This gives you a way to relieve tension in your body while your mind is relaxing.

Compression massage is used to relieve many of the larger muscles of the body. This is a gentle squeezing action which helps to push and pull on these larger muscles. The relaxation chairs come with contoured airbags to relieve minor aches and discomfort.

Sometimes the simplest pleasures are ones like heat. The relaxation recliners are very soothing to just relax with a throw blanket and activating their heat. This is a great way to keep warm while relaxing to a good book or movie.

I was impressed with the vibro massage system in the relaxation recliner. It comes with three automatic programs and also allows you to target specific areas. The programs are well done with different pulsating sensations which penetrate deeply through the muscle tissue.

There are two styles of relaxation recliners available. One model is called the skyline relaxation chair in the other is the serenity relaxation recliner. The skyline relaxation chair is a more traditional style while the serenity is a swivel base style. Both have similar therapeutic and massage features.

You really should check out the new generation of relaxation recliners. They are great way to relax and complement your home or office. They come with a number of therapeutic features and sport very nice designs. Look for the Omega skyline or the serenity relaxation chair for your next recliner.

Here are the 21st Century recliners having a range of therapy options. These Relaxation Chairs are excellent to use everyday or getting some relief from your busy day. Treat yourself to relaxation at the touch of a button. The Skyline Recliner Chair has a great range of features for your relaxation pleasure.
