Procurement Guide for massage gun

Studies show that 80% of people will experience pain in their lifetime. The two most common types of pain are in the neck and back.

Are you one of the statistics? Or are you a professional athlete or sports enthusiast? Have you tried a lot of ways, such as pain medications, ice, heating pads, and massage, to ease your discomfort? Are you tired of spending a lot of money to solve your muscle pain and accelerate recovery?

If so, you’re likely to need to discover many benefits of using massage guns. The best massage guns will help increase blood flow, decrease lactic acid, and relieve muscle soreness.

This article will discuss the types of muscle massagers and the necessary factors to consider when massaging gun shopping.

What is a massage gun?

A massage gun, a more professional saying is percussion massager, is a hand-held tool.

Gallucci explained that massage guns relax sore muscles by concentrating pulses to provide rapid microbursts of pressure. When you feel muscle soreness or muscle tension, this “mini jackhammer” obviously affects pain relief. Gallucci believes that the percussive therapy provided by the deep tissue percussion massager will not only help relieve muscle pain or relax the tight muscles or trigger points after a tension workout but also accelerate blood flow in the percussion areas and targeted muscle.

Physical therapist John Gallucci Jr., CEO of JAG-ONE Physical Therapy also believes that “the function of deep tissue massage gun is to combine impact and movement, which is called percussive therapy. Athletes like to use the muscle massage gun to help relax sore muscles and stiff muscles, similar to real massage, while stimulating blood flow, thus helping to accelerate athlete recovery.”

Pro Level Massage Gun

Pro level massage gun is one of the most commonly used massage products for professional athletes.

MAXTORC professional massage guns can compete with Theragun and Hyperice, which are specially designed for professional athletes and fitness enthusiasts. And, also that’s the best massage gun for physiotherapists and clinics. Normally the retail cost is above 300usd.

And our YLM02 model and DBMG-01 model are just designed for this level, the stroke is 16mm and the stalling force is 30kgs, which is the same as Theragun. As you may find out that 98% of the massage guns in the market are only from 6mm-12mm stroke, which is skin vibration not really deep into the sore muscles, they shall be vibration massage guns, not heavy-duty massage guns.

The best massage gun will provide many massage heads for customers to choose from, different massage heads are designed for different muscle fibers and trigger points.

Pros

• l Built-in 24V, 2000mAh Li-ion battery. So it has long battery life, which can reach about 1-4hrs.
• l All kinds of massage heads for your selection. We have 10 interchangeable massage heads with 2 different materials, hard plastic, and soft rubber.
• l There is a charging dock for these two best massage guns, but the deep tissue percussion massager can be charged with the dock or without the dock.

So deep tissue percussion massage guns inside will be very well protected, with no movement, and no shaking. We can add your logo to this case.

Cons

What are some of the important points to take note of when getting your massage gun?

Stroke

Stroke is also called amplitude, which is the distance for the back and forces reciprocating movement of the tip.

The higher the stroke, the further the massage head will travel and the deeper the gun will hit. You will feel that it is much stronger! 

RPM

RPM represents revolutions per minute i.e., how many times the massage gun can hit your muscle tissue in one minute! 

The higher the speed, the higher the intensity of the massage. Most massage guns feature a speed range of around 1500RPM to 3200RPM.

Battery Life

A massage gun with a long battery life guarantees that your massage gun won’t quit in the middle of a therapy session. Heavy users such as therapists and professional athletes need to have a longer device battery life. No one likes to have to charge our massager after every use, so battery life is important for common people too. 

Attachment Heads

Different massage heads are designed for different muscle groups. We can use the same attachment head to massage all over our body muscles, but unique attachment heads can provide a more complete experience.

Warranty

As with any other high-value investment, it is crucial for a product warranty.

So finding a reliable supplier is important, who will offer a 1-year warranty for their products.

MAXTORC is one of the reliable suppliers. We offer a 1-year warranty for our products.

Noise

Big noise when using the massage gun will bring us an uncomfortable feeling.

So we must consider the noise level when choosing massagers.

Conclusion

In addition to considering the important points above, we also need to decide according to our budget when choosing a massage gun. With a good budget, choosing a reliable supplier to build a long-term relationship with will help us expand our business quickly.
