Why need a massage gun? Which muscle massager machine can help to you?

True workout recovery is achieved through a careful blend of physical manipulation and nutrition, but it's still fun to take advantage of high-tech recovery tools meant to minimize muscle soreness (including the hard-to-resist CBD-infused activewear). One category of these tools has science on its side and makes the perfect holiday gift for fitness enthusiasts: massage guns. 

Massage guns, which are essentially backed by the same extensive scientific research that supports massage as the optimal tool for workout recovery, use the force of percussive therapy in order to manipulate your body's soft tissue. Everyone from professional athletes to recreational gym-goers, to people with chronic pain love these powerful massagers for many reasons. 

Percussive therapy is said to help muscles recover faster while reducing muscle pain, muscle fatigue and lactic acid build-up. They can also improve your range of motion and flexibility, encourage blood flow, help with muscle stiffness and more. Percussive therapy may even help with stress and sleep. Also, not that you should invest in one for this reason alone, but the slow-mo videos of massage guns punching muscles look insanely Insta-worthy. Just tell your gift recipient to be careful with using one if they have any injuries beyond a muscle ache from a tough workout. 

If you have a fit friend who always complains about being sore, a massage gun will help shush them and save money by foregoing monthly massages.
