The bullet is my favorite. I usually like deep tissue massages and that piece really does the job for my thick skin.

Hey, that's a detailed review of the massager. Recently, I got this from Costco and was looking for a detailed review and how to use it. I have a severe right shoulder pain due to heavy weight lifting. Hope, this massager and strengthening exercises are gonna help me 😊

Thank you for such an informative video! Which shape would you recommend for a frozen shoulder? After a therapy a small place between delta and biceps remains unflexible and a bit painfull. Thanks.

Got a massage gun for christmas, and it came with a bunch of attachments, but not the last one you covered. Mine also came with the shovel one, which i like to use to move blood around, and a shoe looking one with a pointy tip which i have no idea how to use. It also came with an attachment that look like its perfect to go up and down the leg, a wide U shape one.
Are attachments sold seperately? and how do you use the shoe looking one?

[hanslatour]

Good explanation about the heads. What about the pressure you have to give to be the best productive?

[eugenedaniels]

Very informative, thank you. I just bought my first gun. At 67 I am getting very sore after working out.

Can massage guns help get rid of muscle knots? Which attachment works well for that?

[maximumeffort]

In the owners manual it specifically says the U head is for vertebrae. Interesting to know what they printed wrong

[sawtoothscream]

Agree on the last one, that one so far feels the best imo.

[Nobody]

Thank you for keeping it simple unlike other videos with lots of talk

[denisewildfortune]

Thanks for confirming my use of the forked attachment. Through discovery, I found it is often the right tool for the job. Excellent commentary!

[reubenha]

Thanks Tim! Regarding soft heads, I want a material firm and bouncy with more solid effect but not hard plastic. my gun has foam balls which I find too soft and have very little effect. Is EVA or silicone balls/flat heads better? I can order them separately. Thanks.

So i have pinched nerve in my lower back which one is the best for that ?

People neeed to know that overuse can cause bloodclots and anuerysms. Also using it on superdicial arteries and veins can as well. Only use in areas that there is no pulse.

how long should you use a massage gun per session? how many times per day?
