The present invention keeps the head of a user stable even when a back massage mechanism is moved in the vertical direction and the head cannot be supported by the back massage mechanism. This chair-type massager (1) comprises: a backrest part (3) on which a user reclines; a back massage mechanism (6) that is built into the backrest part (3); and a back guide rail (7) that guides the back massage mechanism (6) in the vertical direction inside the backrest part (3). The chair-type massager (1) is characterized in that: the back massage mechanism (6) is moved up/down along the back guide rail (7); and, when the back massage mechanism (6) has been moved into a position that is away from the head of the user, a pillow member (17) that can support the head of the user comes out from inside the backrest part (3).
