Starting on the lowest setting, aim the massager at the muscle group you're targeting, and then float it over the area in gentle, smooth motions. Thanks to the percussive beats, you don't need to press hard. When you want a little more intensity, just turn up the speed. You'll also want to pay attention to the features before buying a massage gun. More basic options may only have one or two heads and up to three speeds, whereas fancier models typically come with five or more attachments and several speed settings. Higher-end devices often have additional bells and whistles, like digital displays, Bluetooth connectivity, guided sessions, smart pressure sensors, or an auto-shutoff feature. Imtiyaz S, et al.

"It's always good to try it out before you buy it to make sure it can vibrate enough to do its job." Features Our tester loved the versatility of each attachment but did wish for a more in-depth guide on where and how to use each one.
