ARE MASSAGE GUNS USEFUL?
Massage guns are especially useful for people who engage in frequent and intense physical activity. When used before a training session, they not only help you recover faster, but also improve range of motion by relaxing the fascia. Athletes preparing for a specific competition also benefit from these devices, as they relieve muscle tension that can lead to stress injuries. They also help those who suffer from localized muscle pain. A regular foam roller does not reach the tissue with the same depth and precision as a massage gun. In addition, it is not possible to achieve the same frequency with a manual massage as with a massage with the Fitgun.
Strains can occur during sports or after long days at work. They are usually painful and cause discomfort and limitations in daily life.

But how can you get rid of annoying muscle tension? The Fitgun Pro massage gun can help here. Massage guns and locally applied vibrations as a therapeutic measure have not yet been scientifically tested in this context, but initial experience and positive effect values are available. The targeted vibrations act directly on the tissue and can loosen tense muscle areas or "blocked" parts of the connective tissue, the so-called fascia. Blood circulation is improved, swelling goes down, pain is minimized and recovery from stress or exertion is accelerated.
The energy transmitted to the body through massage guns is similar to the application of so-called mechanotherapy. This term refers to all therapies that act through mechanical and physical stimuli, such as vibration therapy, shock wave therapy or massage. These devices can activate or relax muscles before or after exercise. However, they should not be used when the muscles are already sore, as they can cause additional irritation and local pain. In addition, their use can promote venous drainage, that is, toxins are eliminated from the body more quickly.
