Kuala Lumpur, 23 April 2024– The world’s first ever fully cordless massage chair, the Zenia was spotted atop Malaysia’s highest peak – Mount Kinabalu. A truly unique sight to behold for mountaineers as they made their way up the iconic mountain.
The mountain top which has always been a sight to behold with breathtaking views was made even more enticing with the greeting of comfort and relaxation of the massage chair after the long trail up.
“Once you make it to the top, you think you’ve made it and seen just about everything there is to see. Then you see a chair, a massage chair no less, and you get to soothe your aching muscles after a long hike,” shared Nicholas, one of the intrepid hikers.
This bold move – lugging the massage chair up more than 4,000 meters above sea level, was organised by Evis, Malaysia’s leading innovative ergonomic solutions provider and makers for the Zenia. The act was done to congratulate hikers as they reached the summit. A celebration of the human spirit and drive to explore both symbolic of the company’s own value through innovation and technology.
Evis took product quality assurance to the next level — literally — as the Zenia, made its debut on a hike up Mount Kinabalu. The chair, which is expected to make waves across the nation and beyond, symbolises the fusion of adventure and relaxation.
The journey up Mount Kinabalu, supported by a team of enthusiasts and nature lovers, captivated onlookers, inspiring them to explore unconventional ways of merging passion with exploration, even as the group navigated steep ascents, rocky paths, and changing climates, all while carrying the massage chair. Through their collective effort, the hikers underscored the unwavering determination and commitment necessary for success, both on the mountain and in life.
The hike also provided the opportunity to highlight how the opportunity to relax could be found anywhere, as the participating mountaineers enjoyed the beauty of Mount Kinabalu’s landscapes while taking a break to utilise the massage chair. Currently, hikers visiting Mount Kinabalu can experience the Zenia at the headquarters of Kinabalu National Park, or the Laban Rata branch of Sutera Sanctuary Lodges at the Laban Rata rest point, Evis’ partner in this venture.
Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Evis, Low Jay See expressed their enthusiasm, stating, “We believe that investing in ergonomic products is an investment in your long-term health, one which can potentially alleviate the need for expensive and time-consuming sessions with medical. Zenia represents our dedication to creating products that take ergonomic support to the next level — assuring our customers of unparalleled comfort and relaxation, and offering a ray of hope in an age where neck and back problems are rampant.”
Merging the benefits of a massage chair with the functionality of an office chair, Zenia provides a holistic solution for those seeking comfort and spine health, while offering opportunities for rest and rejuvenation after a long day. The heart of Zenia’s innovation lies in its intuitive phone-controlled feature, which allows individuals to customise their massage experience through a user-friendly smartphone app — an innovative feature which allows them to tailor massages to target specific areas.
Zenia’s design also features 5D armrests, further enhancing the user experience, and providing multidimensional adjustments that ensure optimal support for arms and shoulders. This feature promotes a natural, relaxed posture, addressing discomfort caused by prolonged hours of typing and mouse usage. This comes at a particularly crucial time as studies shed light on the alarming rise of spine-related issues, especially among sedentary workers, with research from Malaysia revealing a startling prevalence of low back pain (LBP) ranging from 12.4% to 84.6% among various occupational groups.
Another of Zenia’s standout features is its specialised neck and lumbar support, crafted with precision to align the spine and reduce strain. This strategic design actively combats the negative impact of poor posture, a common concern among individuals working desk jobs. Zenia’s commitment to spinal health is further emphasised by its integration of Z-Flux technology, a revolutionary innovation that mimics the touch and techniques of a professional massage therapist. This technology offers a rejuvenating experience, relieving tension and stress after a long day’s work or, in this case, a long day of strenuous physical activity.
