Benefits Of Percussive Therapy
Percussive therapy is a type of massage that may help reduce muscle soreness and promote faster recovery after intense workouts.
This technique has been used for over 2,000 years to heal not only physical pain but emotional problems as well! Percussion facilitates deep relaxation which can be extremely helpful during stressful times because it helps release endorphins (a natural mood booster) along with other feel-good chemicals in your brain such as serotonin or dopamine.
Percussive therapy devices are best used for massaging muscles. These tiny handheld tools work by rapidly striking your skin and increasing blood flow, which can help with pain relief as well as muscle recovery after exercise or injury!
The frequency of sitting down for long periods of time can cause muscle tension and soreness. With a standing desk, you are able to engage in different types or movements which may help ease this discomfort while still being productive at work!
Some findings even suggest that regular use could help improve flexibility and range of motion. Flexibility may be one of the best things you can do for yourself, when it comes down to your health!
There aren’t any clinical guidelines for how to use these devices, and overuse could actually hurt your muscles. So we’d say talk with a stretch therapist before dropping the dough on a massage gun for yourself- you can do this!
Benefits Of Percussive Therapy
Enhance Athlete Performance: Percussion massage can take your sporting performance to the next level. Percussive techniques have been used for centuries to warm up before performances, alleviate muscle tension after physical or sport activity, increase blood supply by increasing heart rate and respiration rates when applied directly onto muscles involved with exercises associated high energy expenditure such as weightlifting or sprinting; they also help relax tightness around joints which reduces pain caused by inflammation throughout one’s whole body.”
Prevents Muscle’s Soreness: Delayed onset muscle soreness is the pain you feel a day or two after your workout. This soreness is caused by microscopic damage to muscle fibers, which happens when they’re worked intensely during exercise and then tension builds up in these areas as well due to remaining contracted for longer periods of time without release; this leads us back around again with percussive treatment! When delivered through massage guns like those found at physical therapy clinics (or even better yet home), break apart fibrous adhesions that create tight feeling tissue throughout our bodies- releasing them so we can enjoy less painful movement once more.
Makes You More Flexible: Flexibility is an important part of fitness. When you’re tight, your movement capabilities are limited and it becomes difficult to perform certain tasks like lifting weights or running efficiently. The good news? You can increase your range of motion with some simple exercises!
Help To Manage Pain: Percussion massage therapy could offer hope to the millions of people living with chronic pain. The benefits are endless: relief from sore muscles, tightness and even headaches!
Improve Sleep: The percussive massage device was proven to help you fall asleep faster and with greater ease. 87% of test subjects found their nights much dreamier after using this amazing new technique!
How To Use a Massage Gun?
Start with the lowest setting to get your body adjusted. It’s recommended that you start by doing massage for only 30 seconds, and work up from there!
As you get used to using the massage gun and find a better understanding of how it can be helpful, adjust your settings or time accordingly. It is important not to exceed two minutes for any muscle group though- going over this limit may lead to increased soreness in some areas.
This device will melt your muscles like butter. The best way to use it is slowly up and down the length of whichever muscle you want in question, while powering on at a 1 inch distance from that area for 30 seconds per session three times daily before eating breakfast, lunchtime snack (or whatever time works), after dinner meal; every other day should be reserved as rest days!

We then use advanced percussive methods with high-tech devices such as air hammers and massage balls which provide instant results by breaking down inactive tissues while providing relaxation all over again at any time suited for you!
