Vibration percussive therapy 

Tension is the root cause of many body aches and pains. The breakthrough treatment of Percussive Therapy relieves the tension in soft tissue effectively and efficiently.  Percussive massage overrides pain signals to the brain, increases heat in the tissue, and releases tension. It does this through a combination of amplitude & frequency of up to 53 percussions per second.  Sports massage traditionally use a series of light strokes to give this effect. They can work faster, harder and – unlike sports massage or manual myofascial release tools, like foam rollers – they can hyper-target a specific area.  

Percussive therapy can assist with the following:

• Accelerating recovery & muscle repair

• Increases blood and lymphatic flow

• Relieves muscle spasms and stiffness

• Breaks up scar tissue

• Improves lactic acid clearance

• Activates the nervous system and muscles

• Muscle fatigue, pain, tightness, soreness, and knots

• Natural stress relief

• Myofascial release.
