Mechanical body massagers

Massage is not only a very pleasant process, but also very beneficial for the human body. It helps relieve fatigue, has a beneficial effect on the skin, the fat layer beneath it, muscles, ligaments, joints and tendons, lymphatic, circulatory, nervous and even respiratory systems. And in order to experience all this, it is not necessary to go to the nearest massage room to receive the services of a professional, although this is a more effective way, but you can purchase one of the mechanical massagers designed for the body and perform this procedure at home.

Features of mechanical massagers, their advantages and disadvantages

The main feature of all mechanical massagers existing today is the lack of batteries in them, which means they can be used anywhere, regardless of the availability of a power source. These devices do not use batteries, therefore, their discharge also does not in any way affect the possibility of use. The only drawback in this case can be called the need for independent use, that is, in order to use it to perform a massage, you need to “work hard”. In addition, before using such devices, some people need to consult a doctor so that the massage does not lead to negative consequences. The main categories of such people include:

• pregnant and lactating women;
• patients with heart and cardiovascular diseases and herpitonics;
• owners of pathologies of connective tissue, as well as people with cancer;
• patients with infectious diseases, as well as those in whom at one time or another inflammatory processes occur.

The manifestation of skin diseases such as psoriasis or eczema is also a contraindication for mechanical effects on the skin, but only if they are on the treated area of ​​the body. The positive effect achieved by using a mechanical massager for the human body boils down to the following:

• improved blood circulation;
• increased outflow of lymph;
• activation of metabolism;
• withdrawal of excess intercellular fluid;
• muscle tone;
• increase skin elasticity;
• muscle pain relief.

Types of mechanical massagers

Depending on the method of exposure, all mechanical massagers can be divided into several groups, namely:

• roller;
• needle;
• vacuum ones.

The use of each of them leads to one or another effect. Also very often, these types are combined among themselves to create a device more functional and efficient.

Roller Massagers

Roller Massagers - These are devices, in which elements rotating around their axis are used as a working tool. Most often they are made of rubber or wood and have spikes on them. The first type is the most suitable for body care for people with sensitive skin, as well as those who suffer from varicose veins or rosacea, since wooden elements are more rigid and can damage superficial vessels when pressed hard.

Typically, such massagers are small in size, and for ease of use, a pen is attached to them. But nevertheless, those models in which the rollers are located directly under the palm of the hand are more effective and less traumatic.The use of such a device can be carried out absolutely on any part of the human body. In this case, the face massager has a smaller size and shape, conveniently repeating all its contours, and for the back the rollers are fixed on a special device made of rope, so that they can massage the inaccessible zone according to the same principle as using a washcloth. Using it will help not only reduce body fat, but also strengthen connective tissue, have a stimulating effect on muscles, relieve fatigue from them, get rid of edema, increase skin tone and smooth it.

Needle massagers

The use of needle massagers allows you to relieve pain in the muscles, spine and joints, normalize the cardiovascular activity in the body, and positively affect the nervous, respiratory and digestive systems, so that the person’s well-being improves and his performance improves. In most cases, applicators are made in the form of rugs on which needle plates are sewn.

The proper use of the mat is to impose it on the desired area of ​​the arms, legs or back, and press it in different places with little effort. If necessary, such a massager can be fixed on the human body with an elastic bandage and worn for a certain time. If they need to process the back area, then it can be spread on a flat surface and just lie on top. To achieve the best effect, you can move a little. The undeniable advantage of this type of device can be called ease of use, since a positive effect on the body will be exerted even by simply lying on it or when it is fixed on the body in any acceptable way.

Using needle massager lies in the contact of a particular area of ​​the human body with plates

Vacuum Massagers

The vacuum mechanical massager is the simplest in design. It is a silicone or rubber jar, when pressed, air escapes from it, and when it touches the skin, it is sucked in with the formation of a vacuum inside. Another embodiment of such a device is a glass jar with holes for retracting the skin and installing a rubber nozzle, by pressing which the skin is fixed.

In most cases, such massagers are used to lift the skin, increase its elasticity, reduce the number and size of wrinkles, accelerate cell regeneration and get rid of cellulite. But due to the fact that this type allows you to improve blood circulation, with it you can reduce pain in the muscles and spine that arise due to pinching of the nerve roots and have a positive effect on the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Complete body relaxation and mood enhancement are also guaranteed.

When you press the can and in contact with the skin, the latter is sucked into it with the formation of a vacuum inside
