Our Story

Experience the Innovative Difference

Since entering the market as an operator of Massage Chairs in 2001, we at Innovative have spent the last two decades designing and developing technologies into a multi-concept, multi-national family of consumer brands and services. Our secret to success? No matter how we innovate and develop our offerings, we put the consumer first. Always.
