Massage is one of the oldest and simplest forms of care to relieve tired muscles. It also works fantastically in relieving pain and anxiety. As a result, we are able to experience incredible relief in a matter of moments, whether we are feeling tired after an intense workout or after sitting in the office all day.
Advantages of massage
One of the biggest advantages of massage is the production of endorphins, which are responsible for our mood. They have a pain-relieving effect and reduce the levels of harmful chemicals in our body such as cortisol and noradrenaline, which appear, for example, with increased physical exertion. Deep tissue massage also stimulates blood flow and helps cleanse the body by stimulating the lymphatic system. It also relieves muscle tension and joint stiffness. As we can see, massage helps to relieve many tensions, both physical and mental, which help in the recovery process.
Massage gun - what is it?
Recently, devices have appeared on the market to facilitate the performance of massage at home. The massage gun, as it is referred to, is an easy-to-use device that
uses a high frequency of vibrations in order to relax the muscles. The device itself resembles in its construction... a screwdriver. The elongated handle conceals a capacious accumulator, which drives the motor placed in the transverse beam and responsible for generating vibrations. At the output from the motor we can attach one of the five most popular tips. Each of them is responsible for massaging a different part of the body. Among them we find the tip:
- round - universal for whole body massage,
- fork - designed for massaging long and narrow muscles, such as muscles along the spine or calf muscles,
- flat - the most powerful of all, which is great for breaking up very tense muscles with a large surface area, such as the muscles of the chest,
- suppressor - a precise tip for massaging muscles close to the bone,
- bullet - a very precise tip designed to massage hard to reach places and trigger points.
For whom will the massage gun work?
Massage gun, which is just a
massage gun is actually designed for everyone. Regardless of whether you do sports as an amateur or professional, or spend long days sitting at a desk. Each such person is exposed to the formation of injuries or increased muscle tension, which will cause pain. With the help of a massage gun such as the
Xiaomi Yunmai Massage Gun SE we are able to deal with these ailments in the comfort of our home. However, we must know that like any medical device it has contraindications.
It should not be used by people suffering from osteoporosis, varicose veins, thrombosis or multiple sclerosis. Therefore, before purchasing such a device, it is best to consult a doctor or physiotherapist, who will not only determine whether we can use it, but also recommend the best massage plan for us.
How Yunmai - the intelligent massage gun works
The
Yunmai Smart Massage Gun comes in
SE and Pro Basic versions, both of which differ in minor details (like battery capacity), but the principle of operation is the same in both. Each of them has five levels of intensity, which provide
from 1800 to 3200 revolutions per minute. We can adjust them smoothly with the touch buttons or we can use the innovative massage modes, which, thanks to the interactive control system, automatically adjust the frequency and intensity of vibrations. In this way, you can relax in peace, and the massage gun itself will select the appropriate level of pressure.
There are two massage modes to choose from - a professional fitness mode and an intelligent massage mode. The first one is designed mainly for athletes and helps to fully regenerate your muscles the day after a workout. The second mode is great for everyday use.
Ten minutes of relaxation with Yunmai
As professional Yunmai massage guns care not only about our well-being but also about safety they have a built-in timer that turns the device off after ten minutes of uninterrupted use. A longer massage session can negatively affect both your muscles and your bones and circulatory system. Thus, you can be sure to relax and improve your comfort without any negative impact on your health. At the same time, the capacious battery (with a capacity of 2600 or 2900 mAh, depending on the model) allows you to enjoy the device for more than 80 days, in case you perform the recommended ten-minute massage every day. If you are still not convinced by the massage gun from Yunmai, then note that its price closes in the range of 500 to 700 zloty. This is the average price of three to five massage treatments at a massage therapist's office. Which means that the purchase of the device will pay for itself in not much more than a month, and you will gain the opportunity to get a massage whenever you feel like it, without having to make an appointment.
