(2010). Pilot study investigating the effects of Ayurvedic Abhyanga massage on subjective stress experience. This is a common concern and one that often puts people off the idea of treatment. It can be awkward, not knowing what to expect and indeed, what clothing (and how much of it) you are to wear and what may be removed. The thing to remember is that the therapist is a professional. If you are worried prior to the session, just ask.

Noise: 40-60 dB | Stall Force: 80 lbs | Weight: 2.5 lbs | Customizability: 4 head attachments, 5 speeds | Battery Life: Up to 3 hours Speed levels: The speed with which the head of the device pounds against you is measured in percussions per minute (PPM). About 2400 PPM is about as intense as most people will want to go, but one of our best-value recommended massage guns goes up to 4800, very much the “up to 11” of the massage gun world.Massage gun brands state that their products provide a wide range of benefits, from promoting blood flow and accelerating muscle recovery to improving flexibility and encouraging lymphatic drainage. Imtiyaz S, et al. (2014). To compare the effect of vibration therapy and massage in prevention of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).

You’re guided through these combinations and helped to achieve your perfect massage programme by the app. Weight: These devices are often held with one hand, so weight is a vital factor. If a unit is too heavy, you can end up with a fatigued arm, unable to target the correct tissues and get the relief you're looking for. It features a battery life of two to three hours, and we like that you can buy an extra battery to double its battery life. Plus, we found it easy to use and set up. The massage gun comes with a carrying case, four massage heads, and a removable battery.

The brushless motor is surprisingly quiet, and the battery lasts an impressive five hours on a single charge. The USB charging port design helps you keep it powered up while on the go as well.

What is a massage?

Each massage gun is separately rated for its range of speed settings and attachments. Comfort and power Ease of Use: Massage guns that score well for this attribute should make a massage session seamless and enjoyable. To test ease of use, we evaluate how easy it is to charge and set up the massage gun. We consider how simple it is to change out the attachments and adjust the settings during a massage session. We also consider how comfortable it is to hold the device for a long time and whether we can use it to reach different muscles. This lovely lightweight massager moves easily over your muscles to provide a thorough, satisfying massage, without penetrating so deep that it causes pain. It comes with an impressive set of speed options and foam attachments (ball, ‘air-cushion’, fork, bullet and flat head), and uses USB-C like almost all modern Android phones. With an excellent battery life of up to six hours, you won’t need to charge the gun too often anyway. It’s also much quieter than the Theragun, and easier to fit into a gym bag or travel bag.
