Fueled Performance

Percussive massage helps improve muscle contraction, which results in the lengthening and strengthening of the muscles and fascial tissues. Fluids and tension are released within the deep muscles which results in improved circulation. The blood and tissue cells exchange substances which help boost tissue metabolism. The improved circulation helps break down adhesions and the increased production of nutrients and fluids help with quick tissue repair.

Work as a supplement to the standard injury rehabilitation process and encourages healing and recovery of atrophied muscles due to trauma or disease. Improved circulation helps the injured areas to become more flexible and heal within a shorter time.

Lactic acid forms when the oxygen levels in the body are low and the body begins to compensate for it by converting newly formed lactate into energy. This often happens during intense exercise and the lactic acid tends to build up in the bloodstream faster than it can burn off. However, a massage gun helps the release of lactic acid and other toxins from the muscles to surrounding tissues. Which reduces the risk of muscle soreness.

Massage guns provide deep tissue massage, which increases the rate of blood flow and stimulates the nerve receptors responsible for dilating blood vessels. This helps create a balance as it helps improve circulation throughout the lymphatic system.

The nervous system stimulates and regulates the activity of the muscles and maintains the body’s homeostasis. Massage guns help stimulate the receptors of the sympathetic nervous system, which causes vasodilation in the skin and muscles, thereby releasing tension and helping the muscles relax while improving mobility.

Massage guns can help relieve muscle spasms and stiffness that may arise from an intense workout. Muscle spasms often lead to ischemia in the muscles, which means the muscle is lacking proper blood flow. This could result in spasms that are very painful. The massage gun works by applying pressure to the muscle, tendons, and ligaments to help them become relaxed, thereby reducing spasms and painful contractions.

Scar tissue is made up of collagen fibers that help with the repair of damaged fibers in the body. However, the elasticity of the tissues doesn’t measure up with the natural muscle tissues of the body. Massage guns help break down these scar tissues, which alleviate pain and reduces restrictions.

Mobility is aided by many moving pieces: muscles, connective tissue, joints, ligaments and tendons. Relaxed muscles and tissue along with improved blood circulation improve flexibility and range of motion of the body.

There are many benefits of using a massage gun besides relaxing the muscles and alleviating pain. This includes increased mobility, improved sleep, and improved immunity. Which is helpful for depression and anxiety, fibromyalgia, digestive disorders, and stress-related insomnia.
