Do Massage Guns Really Help? | Physical Therapist Reviews Achedaway Massage Gun

[@MrIncorr3ct]

For someone who lifts weights most of the weeks I can say these are fantastic for relieving and reducing DOMS. Feels just fantastic. Apparently its the equivalent to 3 DT massages. You can reach most of your body yourself, and unlike a massage you can target exactly where it hurts with the intensity you want. Its not going to replace physicals therapists but it certainly allows more access to the benefits

[@xylaahto]

Not sure where you have got the comparison to 3 deep tissue massages from but I feel that is highly unlikely. What I would say in regards to DOMS is that it’s main function is to change sensation and reduce nociceptive input from DOMS (reduce pain), but the massage gun is highly unlikely to give circulatory benefits of massage. They can also good for pre-workout as it activates the sympathetic nervous system so would be good in a warm up routine.

[@stewartgrindlay9760]

DOMS is killing me this past 48 hours. So bad

[@martinschultz5596]

Hit the gym a couple of times every week (not just most weeks), and your days of worrying about DOMS will be but a distant memory. Well, maybe you'll still get a little DOMS occasionally when your training changes dramatically, but nothing worth mentioning.

One of my patients has a chronic SI jt sprain and the theragun with stabilization exercises are the key to maintaining his relief. Jt mob was provocative and this technique works well. I have tapered him to once monthly tx or post-exacerbation care.

[@timefly4221]

This popped up in my feed and I've been using a massage gun for about a year, so I thought I'd leave a comment. I'm an active runner and tennis player. When I first started using the massager, it was instantly game-changing because I was able to find and work out tons of knots in my legs and lower back. Since then, I use it more in "maintenance mode" when I have those sore areas developing, and I also use it to promote circulation to warm up before exercise or recover afterwards. So if you have muscle knots it can make a very quick, large improvement and otherwise it's helpful but doesn't provide any major changes or relief. Overall still very worthwhile and I use it regularly even after a year.

[@GreenRackham]

I used one and it solved my painful tendonitis. I strongly disagree with your statement that it does not provide any major changes. Your experience does not speak for everyone

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! You made me laugh so I did subscribe. Thanks for sharing this. I did purchase a massage gun and it was the BEST thing I ever did. I had issues with my left knee and paid $3500 for therapy. Therapy was good and I enjoyed it but my knee was still having issues. On Christmas morning, I took my Massage gun and push against the top of my knee (closer to my thigh area), and would you believe me my knee feels great! I am still scared to run or put pressure on my knee. I am moving faster and walking better than ever. I LOVE MY Massage Gun.

I have used one today for the first time. I have done ALOT of pressing over the years with uneven shoulders - both shoulders have tight front deltoids - shortened and no doubt not as healthy as they should be. I have slowed down and worked alot more on them but THIS gun really got into the tight tissue and yes it's quite sore but this to me is good news. I need to interrupt and aggrivate old tissues to get blood flow and repair. I would warn anyone not to lift after using one. Post recovery and with heavy use maybe a day off after

I just bought one of those massage guns for a weird pain I was having in my right shoulder and arm. Actually, the deep ache was worse when in bed. During the day, I didn't notice it so much. But now I've added using the massager to my neck/throat area to try and stimulate my thyroid gland. I'm a 78 year old male and about 30 lbs heavier than when in high school. Perhaps running away from the dinosaurs kept me thin back then. But diet and exercise haven't produced any permanent weight loss now so I figured as long as I have the massager I might as well give it a try. I'm on Day 1 now.

[@Steven-jf8hq]

What kind of dinosaurs were you running from?

[@STBRetired1]

@@Steven-jf8hq Oh, back in my high school days (1958-1962) the land was filled with T-Rex's. You had to move fast. Some got gobbled up quick and some just got stepped on. For the past ten years, I've been competing in the Senior Games in the shotput and discus events. I guess that put too much stress on my old shoulder joint and rotator cuff muscles. The massage gun hasn't done much good for my shoulder or my thyroid. I was hoping, though.

[@STBRetired1]

@ツJamila I have dropped about 4 lbs but I think that is due more to my recent restricted size portions at meals. I just had another sonogram of my thyroid as a checkup from last year for the polyps they found. I haven't gotten the results back yet. I used to think that I may be insulin resistant but as I look at my blood test results, I have a normal glucose level. I believe my thyroid hormones were normal, too. I think that over time I just started eating larger portions. I know I do that with ice cream. A half-gallon used to last me a week. Then it was two half-gallons per week. I remember when I was young, a two egg omelet was "big". More recently, I've been eating three egg omelets. That's when I knew I had to stop eating like that and start eating like I did when I was young and active. Now, I try to eat only when I'm hungry. I've also started drinking a diluted apple cider vinegar/lemon juice drink all day. That helps stop the false hunger feelings. It's going to take awhile. I gradually stretched my stomach larger over time and that gives me a false sense of hunger. Now I have to let my stomach shrink back down so a normal size meal is "filling".

I agree with the side sleeping comment. If you sleep on your side with your arm stretched out to the front of you, you are overstretched your rotator cuff, rear dealt, and essentially all of those back muscles that stabilize the shoulder joint. You may also want to try strengthening your back muscles and stretching out your chest. I think these things may really help you!
