Guests will have the ability to control the duration, speed and strength of their massages.

“We are so proud to partner with XWELL to be the first to bring our massage technology to airport travelers,” said HydroMassage CEO, Paul Lunter.

“Human Touch chairs have a strong focus on recovery, making them the ideal therapy before, between or after flights,” added Human Touch CEO, David Wood.
