VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL
Each and every one of our muscle groups is different, varying in mass and density and with some muscle fibres being more tender and sensitive than others, when applying percussive massage therapy, different levels of intensity is vital depending on your varying recovery requirements.
Our industry leading variable speed control and high-performance proprietary gearbox have both been engineered to deliver between 1400 to 3200 repetitive strokes per minute, enabling you to choose a desired level of massage intensity specific to your treatment and recovery needs. Change between 5 different speed settings and enjoy a deep tissue massage experience that's unique to you.
STALL FORCE
Reviewing some of the alternative percussive massage devices on the market, it was clear that the strength of these machines fall mostly into 2 categories: 'so deep it's too painful' or, 'I can barely feel a thing'.
With this in mind, we set out to research the optimum in massage depth and pressure to ensure the MuscleGun Carbon delivers the very best level of performance and results.
With our industrial grade motor being scientifically calibrated to produce up to 44lb's of stall force and with an amplitude of up to 10mm, this pressure and depth combined ensures the optimum deep tissue massage solution.
The result is highly effective, deep tissue massage therapy for all body types from cross fit athletes and body builders to runners and cyclists alike.
LIGHTWEIGHT
When applying percussive massage therapy, in some instances when massaging hard to reach areas around the back and shoulder blades, which with a heavy massage gun device, this can become awkward and almost a work out in itself.
Thanks to our ultra-light weight ergonomic design, The MuscleGun Carbon, weighing just 0.98kg, is the lightest pro level percussive massage device on the market and so does not become tiring or strenuous during use.
This compact design also naturally benefits portability, meaning you can take your MuscleGun device with you wherever - whenever.
ERGONOMIC DESIGN
In our research stages, one of the fundamental aspects we considered with the MuscleGun Carbon, was aesthetics and design.
The MuscleGun Carbon has been engineered using the highest-grade materials combined with a minimalistic and refined design.
The result is not just the ultimate and ergonomic gym bag accessory, the MuscleGun Carbon will also blend in perfectly on your coffee table at home.
HOW IT WORKS
1. WHAT IS PERCUSSIVE MASSAGE THERAPY?
Percussive massage therapy delivers high frequency, repetitive strokes that penetrate deep in to the muscle fibres and surrounding tissue, stimulating the flow of blood and oxygen around the targeted area, almost instantly alleviating muscle tension, tightness and pain.
2. CORE BENEFITS OF USING PERCUSSIVE MASSAGE THERAPY
REDUCTION IN MUSCULAR SWELLING AND INFLAMMATION
By using a percussive massage device, the repetitive high powered strokes also help to break down any existing scar tissue, persisting inflammation or muscular swelling.
Furthermore, extracellular fluids such as venous blood and lymphatic fluid are flushed away from the muscle tissue and into the body's circulatory system.
This drainage of toxic fluid enables muscle fibres to repair quicker and reduce any associated swelling, tension and pain.
The same effect is achieved by a deep tissue massage, which is a very common and well scientifically researched practice.
The benefit of using a MuscleGun device is that it achieves the same results in 5 minutes as a professional masseuse would in 20 minutes, offering instant relief to tight and tired muscles, without the expense or the inconvenience.
STIMULATED FLOW OF BLOOD AND OXYGEN
Activating your muscles using percussive massage therapy improves the flow of blood and oxygen circulation around the targeted area. This increased level of oxygen and nutrients directed to the muscle also assists with the drainage of lactic acid and other waste products, as a result promoting faster recovery and decreased risk of injury.
Removing any built up lactic acid, through use of percussive massage, can also eliminate the likelihood of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS).
A recent study found that percussive therapy was as effective as traditional massage in preventing DOMS.

4- OTHER HEALTH BENEFITS
We wanted to give you a concise story but the benefits and uses that stretch far beyond. Percussion massager benefits also include:
REDUCE FASCIA ADHESIONS
A deep tissue massage on demand that relieves muscular pain without the expense or the inconvenience of a professional masseuse.
RANGE OF MOTION
Increase range of motion and function by providing a gentle stretch to the muscles.
IMPROVE PERFORMANCE
Improves responsiveness and performance by elongating muscle fibres, especially when spasms, stiffness, or restrictions are present.
RID UNWANTED TOXINS
Improves drainage of the lymphatic system, in turn helping your body to rid and flush unwanted toxins and waste.
5- HOW TO USE MUSCLEGUN
1- For muscle recovery and massage, just attach the preffered massage tip to your MuscleGun by simply connecting it to the device.
2- Turn your MuscleGun on by switching the power button on the top of the device (or rear if you are using the Carbon Go)
3- Simply float your device across the muscle group you wish to treat, adjusting the massage intensity levels using the same button at the top of the device (or rear if you using the Carbon Go) and following the light indicators to choose from 5 different speed settings (or 3 if you are using the Carbon Go)
6- MASSAGE GUN BENEFITS TO DIFFERENT MUSCLES
TRAPS
Your traps help move and stabilize the shoulder blades. Use Musclegun to increase mobility and improve coordination in just 30 seconds.
