We were then told it is at just "a small extra cost." Mrs Harry tells me that it is impossible to do a useful treatment in 15 minutes - the High street shops generally take 1 hour to give the treatments time to soak in and work.

So, marketing gimmick, absolutely.
I admit that's a bummer, but it probably is for the greater good as long as the number of massage chairs remained the same and new treatment chairs were added.
