Pack the MB3 and MB4 massage gun in your kidney and get relief from muscle pain whenever you need it

Massage guns MB3 a MB4 do a lot of work, yet fit in a small bag or a coat pocket. Who are these two models suitable for? Absolutely everyone. Massage guns are no longer just the domain of athletes. Sports trainers use massage guns to treat sports injuries and prevent them.

You can also help yourself from muscle and back pain several times a week without visiting a masseur. Investing in a massage gun will also save you the hard work of massaging yourself. But few people enjoy massaging every day. When in calf or arm pain, all it takes is a 10 minute long massage.

Why our muscles hurt 

Muscles can hurt for many reasons. Poor nutrition, too much physical activity or stress can be to blame. But it may be that we can't pinpoint the cause. The massage gun removes trigger points with concentrated pressure pulses. These are circumscribed areas on the muscles that you can identify by touch. By repeatedly massaging them to eliminate the problem, they won't bother you as often, or you can even eliminate them altogether. To massage trigger points you need to learn a relatively simple technique, or you can use a massage gun. Where do trigger points come from? These pains are usually caused by overexertion of one part of the body, e.g. carrying a handbag on one shoulder, repetitive work on one arm, e.g. tennis, office work, or professions such as hairdressing, drivers, musicians.

If we overwork one part of the body, the sarcomere of the muscle bundle shortens. The more we overwork an area, the more the shortened sarcomeres accumulate. They accumulate to form a contractile knot. The muscles contract, and it causes pain. How do we fix it? The main thing that helps is stretching, massage and the right vitamins and mineral supplemention.

But stress is often to blame, too, when psychological tension manifests itself in the form of muscle cramps. Changes in the weather or an unsuitable climate can also be to blame. To alleviate the problem, it is therefore necessary to focus on all aspects of life.

How the massage gun works

High-quality MISURA massage guns use pulsating vibrations for massage. You can set one of four massage intensities, between which you will notice a noticeable difference. It is generally recommended to try a lower intensity first, and gradually increase it to avoid possible muscle damage. The MB3 and MB4 models reach an amplitude of 6 mm. With a higher amplitude, a higher massage intensity can be achieved. In addition, the MISURA models achieve a noise level of only 35 dB thanks to the Pro Grade brushless motor, which significantly affects the choice of gun. Also, they have power bank function. So you can charge your mobile phone through this device, which is especially useful when travelling.

Using the massage gun

Before using the device for the first time, charge it fully with USB-C. You can then charge the gun continuously. The operating time of the device is 2 - 3 hours. You also get 4 attachment heads with the massage gun, each of which is designed for a different part of the body.

• The ball head has the most versatile use. It is suitable for larger muscle groups such as back, arms, hips, bottom, thighs and calves.   
• The flat head is made of metal and therefore finds great use for relaxing muscles and shaping them using massage oils or creams.
• The spiral head is designed for strong pressure in the palm area, feet and general acupuncture points.
• The fork head finds its use in massage of the neck, and Achilles' heel.  
  

Advantages of the massage gun 

The massage gun improves the ability to regenerate and therefore accelerates muscle growth. In response, it strengthens their flexibility and increases their range of motion. After exercise or increased physical activity, it breaks down lactic acid in the body, with which we will feel noticeably more comfortable and better rested on the next day. It also improves blood flow, so muscles are nourished better. Using the massage gun can effectively get the lymphatic system moving, which promotes detoxification of the body and reduces or eliminates the appearance of cellulite.

When it is advisable to use the massage gun

Massage guns are often used before exercise instead of warm-up. The massage will be short with strong, pulsating movements. This will shorten a lengthy stretching session to just two minutes. The massage gun can also be used after the workout to make our muscles recover faster. With regular use, we improve the muscle's ability to recover and eliminate the problems of delayed soreness that come a day and a half or two days after the exercise. This way we can exercise more times a week, longer, and at the same time without pain.

The MB3 and MB4 models are very light, weighing around 485 g, and with the largest attachment not exceeding the weight of 665 g. So it is not a problem to pack the massage gun for exercise, for travel or even for work.
