This aesthetically pleasing device from up-and-coming massage gun brand Lola is all over the internet right now and after testing it, we can see why. Not only does it look the part, but it also scored highly for design, ease of use and performance. There is inconclusive research about some of the longer-term scientific benefits of using massage guns, as they are relatively new products that are still being investigated and debated. Be careful not to use a lot of force though, because then you’ll risk a stall. That happened to me several times during testing, albeit mostly in the lower to mid PPM ranges. There’s some discrepancy over the Elite D9’s stall force threshold, with the user manual claiming 18.7 pounds, and another listing from Sportneer claiming 35 pounds. The actual stall force probably lies somewhere closer to the lower number, I’d estimate around 20-22 pounds. That’s half the force it takes to stall a Theragun Elite (40 pounds), and a third of the force it takes to stall a Theragun Pro (60 pounds). Try to completely relax your body before using the massage gun. “There is a reason that when you go get a massage by a masseuse, they do so in a relaxing setting,” he said. “Your body will see better results from massage when the muscle is relaxed.”

Percussive therapy is a fancy name for a massage that's rapid and repetitive and uses vibrations.Once turned on, it's noticeable that it's significantly quieter than the previous version. However, it's still powerful even at the lowest speed. Therabody kept the rotating arm, which makes it easy to target hard-to-reach areas. Each massage gun was trialled for a three-week period, used to prime and relieve our experts' muscles around their fitness-filled schedule of weightlifting, HIIT, running, yoga and more. Electrical stimulation: A TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) device can stimulate muscles and promote relaxation.

The Theragun Mini second generation maintains the same solid ergonomic handle that the original Mini has to make up its compact shape. The Mini's power button also controls the speed and uses lights to indicate the speed level. Another plus is that it's Bluetooth enabled, so you can connect it to the Therabody app. The Bantam comes with a travel case and four head attachments. You have more options than its competitor the Theragun Mini second generation, which only has three. The Bantam has three speeds ranging from 2,000 to 3,200 percussions per minute and provides 10 mm of amplitude and up to 35 pounds of pressure.

This feature is beneficial when using the device in a public place and not wanting to draw attention with a loud sound.” Generally, a higher price tag will indicate a more reliable product and, when fully charged, a decent massage gun should last for a few days to a week, based on around 15 minutes' use per day. Men's Health Lab Approved Massage guns need to be utilized properly. Those who are inexperienced or have not done enough research on how to properly handle the massage gun can end up injuring themselves. “You may end up massaging an area that is experiencing referred pain and not actually targeting the area that needs help with recovery, doing more harm than good,” Gallucci said. What impressed us most was that, even when used on its highest settings, the Hydragun was extremely quiet during our tests, perhaps even quieter than our otherwise top-scoring Power Plate Mini+. We measured its noise output at 30dB, which is approximately the same as most electric toothbrushes. Shoppers also said the controls were easy to use and the massage gun had reasonably good strength to target muscles.

Move slowly up and down the length of the muscle for around 30 seconds – if you find a particularly sore spot (or ‘trigger point’), spend a little more time on it, but there's no need to apply more pressure. Try not to wince.
