You’re Probably Using Your Massage Gun Wrong

Be Honest: Do you really know how to use your massage gun, or are you just guessing? Turns out, guessing isn’t what you want to be doing with a high-powered device that’s capable of dissecting the arteries in your neck. But no need to fear your massage gun — use it right, and benefits abound. 

The Benefits: A massage gun can relieve muscle tension throughout the body. Some research shows that using percussion massagers may also speed up post-workout muscle recovery and increase range of motion. 

How to Do it: Follow these steps, and you’ll enjoy a safe, effective, at-home massage. 

  • Start with the lowest speed setting on a meaty area of your body, like your quadriceps.
  • Begin with a flat or ball-shaped attachment. These are gentler and good for all areas.
  • Limit use to one to two minutes in each area.
  • Avoid massaging bony areas or directly on top of ligaments.
  • Don’t massage your neck, as tempting as it may be. Stop at your trapezius muscles.
  • Don’t use the massage gun on any bruises or skin injuries, like cuts and scrapes.
  • Keep the massage gun perpendicular to your body for the best results.
  • Ask someone to help you with hard-to-reach areas.
