Some of the most common benefits of using our MassagePro Percussive Therapy massage gun include:

Improves stretching ability
Whether you’re after a certain spot on the body or an end-of-day release for your whole system, here are just five steps for you:
1. Turn on the MassagePro Gun without putting it on your body. This is important for better control. If you start and rest the MassagePro Gun on your muscle and then turn it on, it can be a little startling.
2. Rest the MassagePro Gun on your body. Don’t add any pressure. Just let it float.
3. Glide the MassagePro Gun along the muscle. Move slowly—about an inch a second or slower.
4. If you hit an area of tension, let the gun rest on that spot—without adding additional pressure—for a few moments before moving on.
5. Breathe: nice long inhales and exhales. And feel the relief.
Finally, even though the MassagePro Gun has many uses in addition to recovery, there are some safety precautions to keep in mind. First, you should exercise caution when using any massage gun on muscle sprains, strains, inflammation-related injuries (like tendinitis) or broken bones. It's best to consult your doctor before using a MassagePro Gun or similar device if you have any injuries or chronic health conditions.
MassagePro Gun also recommends checking with a doctor if you are pregnant (although it is generally safe as long as you don't use it near the front or rear of your torso).
