How To Use A Massage Gun For Foot Relief (& Plantar Fasciitis)

[@BodyFixExercises]

Did you notice that tingling in your feet after using the massager?

[@jackiemartinez4165]

Yes! After running the gun for some time. Is that normal? Even the hand that i use holding the gun feels tingling if i hold it or run for some time

[@KritikSehgal]

Can you please explain why that tingling happens?

[@cvz14]

No but my foot felt much better 👍🏼

[@kaos421]

It's because the blood is flowing better. When your legs are cold It's because of poor circulation. Massaging it almost feels like the blood itches

I felt like my feet were being tickled by just watching this video! I don't have any issues with my feet but I always love to watch your videos to learn something new. Thank you 😀

[@BodyFixExercises]

The massager feels awesome on the feet. I don't have any foot issues either but it's still my favourite place to use the massager! Cheers Elena!

I feel like if all the videos I have watched so far on plantar fasciitis, this is the best.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Thank you!

[@jordanmitchell9742]

I got this gun and when I tell u I shot right thru a muscle Knot in my foot and that shit was the most sensational thing I’ve ever felt in my life.

[@MariaManaviMRM]

I'm using it for my achilles for a long time, because it helps with my pain, and since I saw your video, I was using the massage gun on the sides too. I got scared and I'm gonna stop and use it properly. Thanks!! I hope I didn't cause any more problems (Type 1 Diabetes too)

[@mk_mk13]

Thank you so much for this video. I have been to Podiatrist and he used something like this. If I can do this at home and get better than that will save me heaps of money

[@BodyFixExercises]

Best of luck!

thanks for the video. i have arthritis in the toes of both feet, and osteoarthritis on the left talus. i am getting a massage gun next month and look forward to using it for my back, knees, legs and wherever else needed. cheers from southern ontario, canada 🍁

You can get it on Amazon. The best, from my experience, is the "Bob and Brad C2'" or T2 massage gun

Can I do this is I rolled my ankle and my ligaments are injured? It feels like it helps and it feels good, but is it actually good for me? Is it really helping? 0:48

[@BodyFixExercises]

No. Don't use it on recently injured tissue because it will increase inflammation. (Over an old injury, where there may be scar tissue but no inflammation could be helpful in some instances)

[@005aminakhan5]

[@mirishka10]

I'm so happy I've discovered your channel. I didn't know what issue i have with my heel, but now I do. I am interested in purchasing a massage gun. There are a few different models, is there something specific I should look for? Thank you.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Any Bob and Brad massage gun is a pretty good buy. On Amazon. The C2 or T2 models are my faves. I have a video on choosing a massage gun actually

[@smilinn4awhile]

thank you for this helpful, easy video! Can I do this several times a day on my feet?

[@BodyFixExercises]

I'd start with once a day, for 2 minutes or so. That's the general recommended amount. If you really want to try more, try two times the next day, then three the day after ... if your get don't get sore. I think 3x a day would be the absolute maximum I'd do though. And remember to do it gently!

[@smilinn4awhile]

Yeh. Just lay down in bed all day an do nothing . You will evolve from amoeba to human. This is a good quide to become your advanced form. Sayain style.

[@JuanPreciado87]

Wouldn't it be better for an old fasciitis (in which I often get cramps due to being very contracted) another type of foot massager?

[@shaboyaclarke4546]

Could this help with metatarsalgia also? Any shoe recommendations?

[@BodyFixExercises]

I don't think it would help with metatarsalgia. Shoes... depends on your foot. If you over-pronate, or have flat feet, then "pronation support shoes" can really help. Google examples

[@thetony8959]

My feet, legs and calves are still tingling, like pins and needles sensation… is that ok and normal? Does it go away? I had it on and off for like 5-7 days. It gets better when I don’t do it. Definitely less tingling when I don’t do the gun.

[@BodyFixExercises]

STOP using the gun. Any tingling sensation should be very mild, pleasant, and shouldn't last more than a minute

[@thetony8959]

@@BodyFixExercises Ok. I was going in for physical therapy and they were using it on me there. Also, the guy was doing a massage where he was pressing down hard with his thumb on top of my foot where the trigger points are and it hurt me. He did this a week ago and it’s still sore there. It kind of feels like a black and blue almost just no marks on the foot. Can that effect the nerves in my legs and give tingling, pins and needles sensation as well?

[@BodyFixExercises]

I'd say something is pressing on a nerve. There are nerves on the top of the foot. It's all muscle tendons on the top of the foot and no muscle belly so there can't really be trigger points on top of the foot. So I would not press there!

[@thetony8959]

@@BodyFixExercises what can happen when pressed there? could he pinch a nerve or injured a muscle tendon? And will the tingling/prickling sensation go away? If yes, how can I go about it? Tingling/prickling even went up to my hands and arms not just feet, ankle, calves & legs. It’s a prickling/tingling sensation on top and bottom of foot. Plus a vibrating sensation

[@BodyFixExercises]

I'm sorry. I don't understand the question. You can't feel things very well in your hands and feet?

[@Rafael-je8hl]

The side of the ball can cause a friction burn if left on too long against the skin.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Interesting. I haven't noticed that. But I never push it against the body much. Maybe you are pressing the massage gun into the body too hard.

[@BodyFixExercises]

I tend to keep the massager moving too, rather than leaving it over spot

[@madgola]

Great video, what brands of massage gun you wer using on the video, was it Renpho?

[@BodyFixExercises]

The one I used on this video got very loud after a few months of using it, so I don't use it now. I recommend the Bob & Brad massage guns. (The C2 model, but any model of theirs really.) They're the best value massage gun for the price and I only really use them now. I have a video on how to choose a massage gun too. That might help. Cheers

[@andrewwhitefield2541]

I use the u shaped head on my feet. It's especially good on the bottom of my heels. When I use it on my arches my toes move on their own. I imagine that's the nerves.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Tendon reflex I'd say

[@alextheg95]

Why avoid the ball of the foot, though? I'm curious because that's where most of my pain is. It looks like it would feel good there for me lol

[@BodyFixExercises]

It's very bony and you can irritate the joint

[@katiet5513]

Hi. Should I be applying pressure? I had been using the 'thumb' shaped attachment and was being quite forceful to try to stretch the plantar fascia but maybe that was wrong 😳

[@BodyFixExercises]

Do it gently! You don't need to press much at all

[@BodyFixExercises]

Your aim is to increase the blood flow to the plantar fascia not stretch it

can I use it if I have sesamoiditis?

[@BodyFixExercises]

You can use it on other parts of your foot but I certainly wouldn't use it near the sesamoid bones if they're inflamed. Massage guns can irritate inflammation

[@r141970]

How many time we can do it ?weekly?

[@BodyFixExercises]

Your can do it daily... but stick to two minutes maximum, each foot, as a good general rule

[@nat3357]

What does it mean when you feel tingling afterwards? Is that bad?

[@BodyFixExercises]

A bit of gentle tingling for 30secs-1 min is ok. Any more means you need to either... reduce the speed, don't press into the foot so hard, or get a gun with less percussion depth (6-8mm is good but a Theragun for example is too deep).

[@romansokolov4589]

Do the running shoes with cushioning (like Asics Nimbus model, as example) make the foot sore and stiff? After years of wearing those kind of shoes I feel that my foot is contracted and trying to release by stepping on the lacross ball is very painful, what do you think about this? What footwear to choose for running?

[@BodyFixExercises]

I like Asics. You might have a bit of plantar fascitis, so maybe check my video on that

[@ARB826]

[@nataliescully8846]

I have micro tears in my tendon and I also have a high arch and plantar fasciitis. Is it still ok to use the massage gun on the areas that you mentioned?

Depends on the severity of the fasciitis. If it's mild it's fine

Question : 51 years old, I have morton's neuroma both feet, I have also had trabulectomy eye surgery on both eyes, two years ago, would it be okay to use the gun, please reply sir

[@BodyFixExercises]

Just steer clear of the neuroma. A massage gun could irritate it. You shouldn't use a massage gun on your neck or head anyway (check out my neck/shoulder massage gun video) . The closest place you should use a massage gun too your head is your traps normally. But I'm not familiar with that eye surgery so you'd have to check with your doctor sorry
