Our Story

Panasonic was founded in 1918 by Kōnosuke Matsushita, who famously said, “Recognizing our responsibilities as industrialists, we will devote ourselves to the progress and development of society…thereby enhancing the quality of life around the world.”

To this day, our commitment to the improvement of peoples’ lives and society as a whole remains at the heart of everything Panasonic does, whether it is producing batteries to power the latest generation of electric vehicles or the market’s most advanced audio/video equipment.

Among the many industries we engage in and products we make, massage chairs stand out as a direct and personal way to improve people’s quality of life by providing relaxation, relief, and therapy.

Our massage chairs are sold globally, and we are proud to partner with Furniture For Life® as our exclusive massage chair distributor in the United States and to be part of their curated selection of The World’s Best Massage Chairs®.
