Percussive

Percussive Therapy is a modality that uses the application of a massage gun. I personally use a Theragun, and will let the evidence speak for itself. Therabody, the company that makes the Theragun have done extensive testing through a series of clinical studies. This is why I believe in the product and have trust in the company. Their clinical studies have shown that 2 minutes of using a massage gun can have the equivalent recovery benefits to that from a 15-minute massage.
