An upholstery unit (28) for a seat of a motor vehicle has bar-form upholstery elements (30) that can be displaced relative to one another and provide a person with cushioned support. A flexible connecting layer (32) connects the upholstery elements (30) to one another and can be folded into an interspace (34) between adjacent upholstery elements (30). The upholstery element (30) has at least one pocket (36), and at least one pressure-point actuator (38) is inserted in the pocket (36) of the upholstery element (30) to apply a massage pressure to the person through a material of the upholstery element (30). The pressure-point actuators (38) in the accommodating pockets (36) of the upholstery elements (30) can be displaced relative to one another. Thus, a massage function of the upholstery unit (28) is adapted optimally to people of different heights, and provides comfortable seating in a motor vehicle.
