Percussive Therapy for Stress Relief and Relaxation.

In these unprecedented and uncertain times, we are being asked to accept a new normal. Quarantine, social distancing and solo, stay-at-home workouts are now just a way of life with the Coronavirus in our lives. The forced acceptance of this creates fear, anxiety and stress for most of us. These unhealthy emotions evoke responses from concerned health experts. Many suggest that, now more than ever, it is vital for your health to create optimal relaxation opportunities in your life.

One of the tools that we would like to recommend is the Muscle Blaster, better known as a massage gun or self-massager. It works by creating a type of percussive therapy much like a wonderfully famous type of massage therapy called Shiatsu. With the massage gun, the administration of massage is far less demanding and doesn’t necessitate a massage therapist (who you can’t get access to right now). Massage therapy can help you relax by releasing muscle tension and re-balancing hormones.

Certain percussive massage techniques are best for people who want to feel relaxed and relieve stress, pain, and tension. It's a type of massage that promotes emotional and physical calm and relaxation. It helps to relieve stress, anxiety, and depression.

Percussive massage therapy emulates the use of the fingers, thumbs and palm to apply pressure to various areas of the body’s surface to help heal common ailments and conditions, and correct imbalances in the body. This pressure, applied to points on the body, promotes energy flow and corrects disharmonies throughout the body. In addition to being a deeply relaxing experience, percussive therapy may help relieve stress, treat pain and illness, and contribute to your overall health and well being.

Daily self-percussive therapy may regulate the automatic nervous system activity and stimulate the circulatory, lymphatic and hormonal systems. Poor posture, joint problems, sprains, arthritis, sciatica, acute and chronic neck and back pain, sinusitis, and bronchitis are all potentially treatable with percussive massage.

Take precaution as many percussive devices are too powerful or have an amplitude that is too high. Choose a massage gun like the Muscle Blaster V2 that has several settings to choose from, or the Muscle Blaster CHROME edition that was created as a lower-intensity relaxation-specific massager.
