The massage gun pro, also known as the deep myofascial impactor, is a soft tissue rehabilitation tool that relaxes the soft tissues of the body through high frequency impact. [1] The fascia gun can be understood as a civilian version of the DMS (electric deep muscle stimulator). The vibration frequency will change during use, and the basic function is similar to that of DMS. [2] The use of the massage gun pro must pay attention to the method and method. At the same time, the first use of the fascia gun needs to be used under the guidance of professionals. It is best to proceed step by step, otherwise it may cause damage.
The massage gun pro uses its special high-speed motor to drive the “gun head”, generating high-frequency vibrations that act on the deep layers of the muscles, reducing local tissue tension, relieving pain, and promoting blood circulation.
The massage gun for athletes uses high-frequency vibration shocks to relax the rigid soft tissue, allowing the muscles and nerves to achieve deep relaxation. The fascia gun can generate 2000-3000 vibrations per minute.
The human body will produce a lot of lactic acid after strenuous exercise. If it is not relaxed in time, the muscles will experience varying degrees of soreness or soreness the next day. The massage gun for athletes can also promote blood circulation, assist the return of venous blood, optimize the body’s metabolism, and speed up the discharge of metabolic waste. It can also deeply release the fascia to relieve soft tissue adhesions and contractures.
Before using it, let’s understand the contraindications of the massage gun for athletes
×Do not hit the joints where the bones are raised
Joints are important sensitive parts. The main function of the massage gun for athletes is to relax the muscles and soft tissues. If it is aimed at the joints, it is easy to cause joint damage.
×Do not hit at some vital organs
Sensitive parts such as head, lower abdomen, popliteal fossa, carotid artery, armpit, spine, etc. Many important blood vessels and nerve tissues are distributed in these parts, which are easy to cause damage.
×It should be noted that the longer the time, the greater the intensity, the more effective
The same part should not exceed 5 minutes, and the intensity should be used gradually from low to high according to different parts, and the maximum intensity should not be used.
How to use the fascia gun correctly
√ The first thing to remember is to play along the texture of the muscles. For example, the thigh muscles are vertical texture, do not operate horizontally.
√Avoid vertical blows on the shoulders, neck and back. The massage head should be tilted and the blows should be pushed slowly.
√ Different body parts should be matched with different massage heads, which is more conducive to muscle relaxation.
Next, I will introduce to you the common massage heads on the market and their corresponding parts.
1. Ball head
2. Flat head, suitable for muscles with wide area and thin muscles.
3. U-shaped head, suitable for muscles with open area and thick muscles.
4. Bullet, suitable for the erector spinae on both sides of the spine and both sides of the Achilles tendon.
5. Air-cushion head, suitable for points with relatively small area and thick muscles. Such as trigger points, trigger points.
The trapezius is suitable for the muscles near the bones and joints. The more sensitive muscle groups are suitable for those with sensitive or low pain thresholds.
