Nanyang Siang Pau reported that sleep-deprived office workers are now renting massage beds to take naps during lunch break in Singapore.

It costs between $18 and $28 for a 30-minute nap on a massage bed.

Chop Chop Massage Express general manager Michelle Tiong said they started with just body and foot massages.

"However, many office workers started asking for a proper place to sleep," she said.

Customers have to pay $20 for a 20-minute nap in a single room. They are provided with beds, pillows, comforters, eye masks and music to help them sleep.
