Hey guys, I'm going to review for you today the NordicTrack pulse tech therapy massager gun, is a
percussion massager gun that I picked up at Sam's Club. And I really liked this thing I'm going to
go through unboxing it for you and showing you how to use it all the different settings on it.
And all the different adapters have come for it. So, if you're thinking of picking up a massage
gun, a therapy massage percussion gun, this is a great find, if you can find it at Sam's Club,
they do have limited supplies, you know, once they get a shipment of something they usually
set when they sell out, they don't always restock it. So, I've linked in the description here a
link to this therapy massage gun from Amazon. So, if you can pick it up there. Or of course,
you might check out the NordicTrack website as well and see if they've got if you're looking
at picking one up. But let's open it up and show you what's inside. So, it Oh, by the way it comes
I didn't actually get to do this. But it comes with this I fit app that shows you a little video
tutorial on how to use it as far as what parts of your body, so I thought that was pretty cool,
I have to do a follow up video for that. Once you open the box, you've got this really nice case,
it's pretty high quality. It's hard, but you know it's got some give to it, it's not going to hurt
you banging on something, but you can tell it's protecting everything inside very nicely. The
zipper here is good quality and little carrying handle course, once you unzip it, here's what we
find. On the inside. There are all the adapter heads when it comes with four different adapter
heads. Here's the unit itself and a charger cable that is a normal USB charger cable ending right
here. So, this would go into your typical block, and it tells you here to use only with a certain
type of block. So just make sure that you got the right type of block for the power outlet.
And then this is a USB-C cord that plugs into the unit or right there. And so, here's a unit it's
pretty lightweight. I've handled many of these over the years as they become more popular. As
an expert physical therapist, you know, I am into researching all this stuff. And this is one of the
smaller ones that has some pretty good power. So that's what I like about this is it just fits in
your hand a lot easier. It's pretty lightweight, they all have some weight to them. They're not
the lightest devices out there. But this one's the lightest one that I've encountered myself.
And it's very quiet as you'll find out here in a second. So, the adapter socket right here fits all
of these pieces. And it comes to these replacement gasket deals that are for the adapters. So,
if you look at the adapters, there's these rubber gaskets, I don't want to take it off and possibly
mess it up. But there's this rubber gasket, this right here in the middle. This is plastic,
rubber gasket right here, plastic and then a little ring that's rubber as well. And
then plastic and it's got replacements for all of these just in case they get worn out. So,
there's a gasket right there. And the little ring is in here too. Just in case you need one.
Let's get it out. There we go. It's got to perfect, they're just kind of wound up on each
other. And then it's got an instruction booklet here super basic instruction.
And the little warranty information as well. It's not a big book, which I love. It's you know,
it's kind of a simple device. It's nice when there's an A million instructions to read.
And it's just got warnings, you know, don't give it to kids don't use it on pets. Your typical
warnings here is talks about bruising and how you shouldn't use it on bruises and some instructions
and how to charge it with the indicators mean but if you watch this video, you're going to get it
all right now and then it's just got this second notice here to use your charger with the right
kind of block. So must be really important for them to put a big yellow paper on there.
And a little tag on the cord. I don't I'm not an electrician, so not all that stuff
works. But let's get to the gun. And let's use it. So, I'm going to put in the typical ball adapter
right there and it just sits in there nicely doesn't slide out very much in fight, pull it
in. And now it's got this little funny bounce to it that I haven't seen on some of the other ones,
which is pretty cool. It's got this horn one right here that you're supposed to use on your
back muscles and neck muscles. This circular one that has some little bumps on it some raise bumps,
and then this pinpoint massager and all of these other ones let me know it's these are
all harder plastic on the ends. The ball. Here is a softer foamy structure. It's firm, for sure,
but it has a little more give than these plastic ends. So, let's go over the tool here. This is
the power button here. And so, what you're going to do is hold that power button on let me do it
and then it turns on and it's already going it's super quiet.
A little light turned on right there. We move a little closer here so you could see it.
And then if you click the button, it turns on a second light, and it's got five lights there,
indicating which speed it's on, there's four. And there's the fastest speed,
I think goes back down to the first speed. Oh, it turns off.
Now it's in turn back on. So, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 speeds, and then it turns off. And it's not
the most powerful one, but I think it gets the job done for the size and the price. This one
comes in at about 100 bucks, is what I got it for, it's Sam's. And as you can see, there it is moving
my hand pretty good. And turn it with the light facing you this way. And at the second setting
for a simple little massage gun, this gets the job done. I love this guy. So much,
I recommend it to our patients, whenever they're asking about a massage percussion gun.
It charges pretty quick, and you get a three-and-a-half-hour battery life,
which is more than enough time, if you're using this just for personal use.
And the way that you would do this, just put it on your neck muscles, for instance, and
let it do its work. And if you can take the higher settings and apply pressure with your hand or have
somebody do this for you, maybe a family member, a friend, something like that. And it just feels
nice to roll it up and down your body wherever you've got stiffness, shakiness or muscles,
end of the day, agenus tight muscles after having worked out, being sore, that kind of thing.
So nifty little massage guide, let me just Oh, if you hold the button down right there,
it turns it off. little light turned off right there. You just pop out the
adapter and try different adapters and this one he should put on this way. And ideally,
you're doing this to somebody else with this ending. I mean you could
experiment and do whatever you want us to want to put this on bones of course. So,
there's that ending right there. And see I'm going to put it right down in the middle of my neck.
And you just want to not be on the bones of your spine because it doesn't feel the greatest.
But that's definitely more pinpointed than this adapter felt. So let me turn that off.
And I'll show you how to work this one. That's the pinpoint when this when you want to use like your
big muscles, like your, your quads, your glutes, your hamstrings, or your thigh muscles, shoulder
muscles as well. So, it's more pinpoint right there. I'm going to put it on my shoulder muscles
right here, shoulder and chest. And that gets into really well as you can tell by my voice vibrating.
It feels great and you can control the pressure you can apply more pressure and get in there deep
or stay like stay superficial and it's not as bad.
Now Veena manual therapist, a specialist, physical therapist,
I think there's no substitute for specific hands-on work. You know, this isn't going to
cure a problem necessarily like if you got a herniated disc in your back, a torn ligament
or a tendon like a rotator cuff injury or some cartilage problem like in your knee. This isn't
going to solve the problem which we're looking for a short-term relief with this thing it's going to
tight it's going to relax tight muscles, and stiff and tight muscles and that's if that's your goal
that's perfect. It's not going to solve a chronic injury though like a cartilage problem or a disc
issue. Now where I would say you need to be careful about using these guides
is with nerve problems and those are kind of harder to find on yourself. But some of the common
symptoms that you can look for is if you got any tingling, numbness sensations, especially in the
arms, if you've got numbness it comes off the end of the day especially if you're holding up a phone
or some device some portable device and you start to get numbness in your hand anywhere
I wouldn't go massage yourself with one of these that could flare up the nerve problem
there is likely associated tight muscles that come on with nerve problems like that.
But you just got to be careful, and you know trial and error is always the best thing.
But if you find that your nerve problem isn't going away your or your pain in general,
whether or not you've identified as a nerve problem or you're able to tell her not then you
need to go find a specialist to help you out. But if you're just looking for some relief, short term
relief or trying to avoid taking a pain medication like your Tylenol ibuprofen, naproxen type
of thing at the end of the day, this is a good investment. I would definitely recommend picking
one up over at your local Sam's Club or check out the link in the description below to pick
it up from Amazon and have it delivered to you Have you thought this review is helpful give us
