I've a massage chair with heating function.
There's this big label on it which with the heating is fast becoming undone.
On closer examination, under the loosened corners there's residual glue or
some material which is sticky to the touch. I'm sure fibers from clothing
will stick to it if the label is removed.
What's the best way to clean this glue from leather surface?

Cleaning leather or any stains on it should be done by a professional.
If you are okay taking some risk, use a leather cleaner. I use one
made by ArmourAll. It contains lanolin.

I believe rubbing alcokol is methylated spirits, a safer first step would be
be white spirit.

a hair drier... be careful not to get the leather too hot though. get it
warm and it should peel off.
