Home Bargains' £15 massage gun with six settings is 'perfect for post-workout aches' Gym-goers and fitness fans looking to improve their recovery can snag a rechargeable massage gun for under £15.
According to Jeffrey Petersen, PT, MOMT, the expert behind Petersen Physical Therapy, massage guns can help provide pain relief, reduce muscle tension, and improve circulation.
Explaining one of the key benefits, Petersen says: "Anyone who works out or lifts weights knows that if you want to increase muscle strength and mass you must focus on increasing the stress systematically over time.
Massage gun therapy can greatly reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
The popular devices can also facilitate lactic acid release, stimulate the lymphatic system, and decrease soreness after workouts — news sure to delight people who have signed up to a gym or committed to a workout programme as part of their New Year resolutions.
