Cochrane, D. J. (2017). Effectiveness of using wearable vibration therapy to alleviate muscle soreness [Abstract]. The company lists a wide range of health conditions that are not compatible with the Theragun, including deep vein thrombosis, severe cardiac, kidney, and liver disease, scoliosis, and uncontrolled hypertension, among others. How often should I use the Theragun?

In a 2014 study, researchers found percussive therapy and deep massage to be equally effective in preventing delayed onset muscle soreness. They also found preliminary evidence that percussive therapy can reduce pain and help lessen the amount of lactate dehydrogenase buildup in the muscles following a workout. However, this study only involved 45 people, all of whom were female. Additional research is necessary to confirm its effectiveness across a larger population. They were judged on how easy they were to control, the impact they had on sore muscles, their ability to move across skin and muscle smoothly, and the effectiveness of any interchangeable massage heads included. The design (how ergonomic the handle was), portability and any other innovative features were also taken into consideration when deciding the final hierarchy. Our winning massage guns boast the Men's Health Lab Approved logo below. The LED light of the Multi-Device Wireless Charger will light up when properly connected. The PRO and Elite are fully charged when the battery icon on the device’s OLED screen is full. The PRO and Elite can remain on the Multi-Device Wireless Charger even when fully charged. Move slowly up and down the length of the muscle for around 30 seconds – if you find a particularly sore spot (or ‘trigger point’), spend a little more time on it, but there's no need to apply more pressure. Try not to wince.It may be the size of a small water bottle, but it’s brimming with impressive features.

If you need some guidance, there’s a handy user manual, which provides step-by-step routines for warm-up, mobility and recovery. According to our tester, these were genuinely useful. The company states that a person can use the Theragun two or three times a day. A person should use it for a minimum of 15 seconds and a maximum of 2 minutes per muscle group, and a full body session should not exceed 15 minutes.

As we exercise and challenge our muscles, we cause breakdown within the muscle fibers, which in turn stimulates muscle growth and regrowth, hypertrophy (increased muscle size), and strength. Mechanical stimulation of a muscle [with a device like the Theragun] causes increased blood flow and the release of histamines to the stimulated area. What this does is allow the increased blood flow to decrease the inflammatory response, decrease muscle soreness, and break up knots in athletes' musculature." Plonksi has seen anecdotal evidence supporting the use of a Theragun-like device, and no apparent negative effects, but she recommends people always talk to a physician before trying a device. The Elite can store up to three presets locally. Each preset is a unique combination of speed, time, and force depending on the guided wellness routine it stems from. That means that each person’s device is specific to them and can be tailored to their particular needs.Large Ball- Used mostly for treatment of large muscle groups. Commonly used on glutes, hamstrings, and quads.

Konrad, A., et al. (2020). The acute effects of a percussive massage treatment with a Hypervolt device on plantar flexor muscles’ range of motion and performance. Our experts at the MH Lab tested the mettle of the best massage guns on the market. And, as the list below shows, they were more than up to the challenge.According to a 2020 study, percussive therapy can increase range of motion without hampering muscle power. As a result, the researchers recommend using percussive therapy before physical activity to increase flexibility without sacrificing performance. However, the study only included 16 people, all of whom were male. Massage guns, also known as percussive therapy devices, help relax and soothe sore muscles, whether you’re an athlete or just hunching over a desk all day. Theraguns (made by Therabody) tend to be some of the most popular. We’ve tested and like the entire range, but they’re expensive. There are plenty of Theragun alternatives out there for hundreds of dollars less. In this guide, you’ll find a mix of both for all budgets—plus helpful information from a physical therapist and athletic trainer on how these devices can help our bodies. These are our favorite massage guns.
