About this deal

While there are no formal guidelines for how long to use a massager, you shouldn’t use them too long, especially not in one place on your body. “There are reported cases of fascial damage from excessive massager use,” explains Dr. Lev Kalika, owner of New York Dynamic Neuromuscular Rehabilitation & Physical Therapy. “Patients should understand that massagers are not intended as self-treatment but rather as a supplemental tool. It is very easy to create fascial or cutaneous nerve damage if you use excessive pressure or excessive time under pressure.” Charging format: A versatile charging format, such as USB-C, is really handy too, because it means you can plug the unit into your phone charger. Imtiyaz S, et al. (2014). To compare the effect of vibration therapy and massage in prevention of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). The Theragun Elite is a favorite among chiropractors, athletes, and casual exercisers, as it features a powerful motor and five attachable heads for targeted muscle relief.

A lot of deep-tissue massagers use percussive therapy. The rapid pulsing movements direct blood flow to muscles throughout your body to alleviate pain and tension. Deep-tissue massage guns typically use percussive therapy. Charles Hummer III, MD, FAAOS, FACS, chief medical officer at Premier Orthopaedics, Philadelphia Union Deep-tissue massage used to be something you could only get from a licensed masseuse, chiropractor, or physical therapist. But as you may be aware, at-home spa treatments are currently having a moment, and massaging tools are no exception. Dr. Melissa Prestipino, PT, DPT, owner of Maize & Blue Rehab in New Jersey, told Healthline, “The Theragun Elite offers a very quiet percussive force, which is quieter than other massage guns on the market. This feature is beneficial when using the device in a public place and not wanting to draw attention with a loud sound.” Konrad A, et al. (2020). The acute effects of a percussive massage treatment with a Hypervolt device on plantar flexor muscles' range of motion and performance.Overall the HoMedics sling is easy to use—press the power button once for high intensity, twice for medium, and three times for low. The heated massage is a nice add-on; however, our tester noted that it took a few minutes to heat up. “Once it did,” she said, “that was a nice added feature.” It's all about preference, though. Read the intended use of each attachment, give each a go, and follow what feels right for you. Booking an appointment with Fresha is as simple as 1-2-3.

Topical products: Use topical products, such as massage oil, CBD balm, and analgesic ointment, to reduce friction and make applying pressure easier during a self-massage. I utilised all four heads, but worked mostly with the bullet. After some pre-season training and a gentle cool down, I used the bullet to release tension in tight regions – namely, the hamstrings. I started with the flat head on its maximum setting, focusing on tender areas to bring a layer of warmth to the tissue. I then identified areas for localised treatment and put the bullet to work, pushing deep to work away any nasty knots. Following 10-15 minutes of identifying, warming and treating the tissue, I rounded off with some static and dynamic stretches, allowing the muscle to contract and release through a range of natural movements.
