My husband has throat cancer. His voice box and right carotid artery was removed in the past 2 months. He is asking for a neck massager to help with pain. Is there anything you can recommend? Thanks
I was injured by one used by a chiropractor! He put it on a high setting at the top of my neck on the right side, again and again. I told him it hurt a little, but he said he was trying to move the axis. Months later, my right arm went paralyzed! I got an MRI and had developed a lesion on the spinal cord! He gave me complimentary lazer therapy, but it didn't help. I stopped going to him. With time and other treatments, it improved. But 13 years later, my hand still goes numb.
I am a security officer who walks between 15 to 20 miles in a 24 hour period and the Q2 does wonders on my legs. Calves in particular are usually so stiff and sore the day after a shift, and I honestly feel better after 20 mins on my legs. I do feel pain (soreness) initially using the massager but I keep it at level 1 and then go to level 3 after a few minutes.
My Bob & Brad C2 gun arrived last night!!!! I love it - I used it briefly on my shoulder prior to bed and didn't have any pain while sleeping. I haven't tried all the features and attachments yet, but I will say that the unboxing was impressive - it's high quality, comes in a nice case, well packaged. I appreciate the user manual. So far, very happy with my purchase and happy to support y'all - I really enjoy your videos.
@@BobandBrad Used them on my face, skull, thyroid, liver... That's why I wish your gun could adjust the amplitude. Would be nice to have one gun to do it all because many of us like using this on nerves and arteries...
slept on my neck weirdly and it hurt for days, I used the massager lightly from the back of my head to just under my ear, not going near the arteries in the front. after about 20 minutes whatever was messed up worked out and I could finally pop my neck. risky but I tried everything else up to that point to no avail
Is there no exception to the neck? Either side of the spine at the bottom of the neck, with the split head piece, it feels so good and seems to help me a lot. I respect your advice and take it into consideration but with care, I do find it has helped to relieve recent tension and headaches. Thanks guys 😁
A couple of months ago, I somehow hurt my neck SO badly that I was constantly in tears and afraid to move. Went to a massage therapist and a chiropractor in the same day…and the only thing that made the pain go away was the massage gun the chiropractor used. She used the two pronged attachment. I immediately bought a massage gun in case that ever happens again. So…I dunno.
Yeah be very careful in the neck area. I used a Theragun around my neck and I don't know if I hit an artery or something and I swear I had an irregular heartbeat for a couple of minutes and then it went back to normal. These companies should provide better warning about areas to avoid.
I healed myself from being hit by a car when 10 and then hit from behind by a car when 25. After 15 years, discoveted these, and I was able to undo what many profesionales could not. Some are good. Some are bad. I have a theragun 4 pro. I learned so much I became a myofascial massage specialist. Lots of glutes and piriformis work helping people live without pain.
And then there was this man who went to an emergency room in Manchester, England (reported in the Lancet) with one of these lodged in an internal organ between his gluteal muscles. And, it was still vibrating. You all forgot to mention that possibility.
I get tons of relief and no issues using an air head tip on the jaw joints, and the rear sides & top of the neck, and all around the skull - places you clearly advise against. Now I'm confused as to why not. Working these spots are the main reason I have this gun. Now What?
You provide useful info! I found a massage gun actually improves circulation and neuropathy (non diabetic) in my legs and feet, but I use the lightest setting,
Solid & 💯% accurate advice! I’m a big fan of massage guns for most people, but there are definitely some important scenarios like the ones you highlighted where they shouldn’t be used. I would add that if someone is taking blood thinners, is pregnant, or has any issues like thrombosis they should also avoid using a massage gun.
Good to know- I have the largest of your impact massagers and I only have one complaint- it did not come with ANY instructions- what to do or not do! If I didn’t watch your channel all the time I’d have no idea. It’s a great product, works well, holds a charge for a long time!
I definitely disagree with the abdominal area. I have a ton of postpartum adhesions from my pregnancy 2 years ago, and I cannot build core strength for the life of me. I whipped out my TheraGun before a Pilates workout, and lo and behold, I cranked out roll ups and planks like they were nothing. I did the same workout less than a week later without massaging first, and I had a lot more trouble.
Dang, Glad I didnt mess up anything yet, mostly on my neck for 5 years, used it last nite on neck, head, shoulders, lower back, arms, legs, feel better today again
Very good advice fellas!! Gotta put the caveats out there, so, well done!! Sort of like putting a 'hot liquid' warning on a take-out coffee. Probably should enclose those directions in the packaging too. 🙂
I am guilty of some of these. I used it all around my jaw and head for clenching and I actually lost most of the hearing in one ear for about three days and it slowly came back. I also dug it deep into the piriformis and around the pelvic bones and am now going for physio, for inflammation from overdoing it. It became very sore all of a sudden too, after using it too vigorously for a week. Keep off boney areas unless using the soft head.
You guys are the best. My new life mission is to be a special guest on the Bob and Brad show. I am also a structural integrator/fascia worker, yoga therpaist and kinesiologist, on top of being RUclipss virtual massage therapist ;)
I just bought a $120-$160 version of the Bob and Brad gun, and I do go on the neck, but only the sides and lower traps with the air cushion. I also notice on the arm, anytime there's a huge vibration, it's probably a bone. So I definitely don't go too far up the arm. Thank you for reiterating a lot of the dangers of this tool. As useful as it is, it can be problematic.
No abs at all?? I occasionally get brutal spasms/cramps in my upper abdominal muscles... I actually just bought a Bob and Brad T2 to help with this (and other areas.)
I don’t know what I did to my neck a couple of months ago to cause me soooooo much ungodly pain…to where I was constantly in tears, was literally afraid to move, and couldn’t sleep. Went to a massage therapist and a chiropractor, in the same day. And the ONLY thing that made the pain go away was a massage gun the chiropractor used. So…I’m not understanding why a massage gun shouldn’t be used on the neck.
I have a form of fibromyalgia and even before that, tried just about every modality from Tai Chi, Piloga, yoga, you name it. For my money, the most promising program I’ve found that keeps my body feeling loose and releases all the tension and heals the fascia is Essentrics (the long running PBS show). Most massage therapists would probably agree, as I’ve found, DIY massage and especially aggressive massagers can often cause more harm than good to our fascia and connective tissue.
I tried it on my neck once. Must have hit a nerve all weird because it felt like my neck was filling up with blood on the inside, got super warm. Went to a mirror half expecting my neck to be dark red with blood but it looked normal. Went back to normal after couple minutes. Needless to say, that was the last time I used my massage gun on my neck lol
I saw someone say using it on your neck can rupture small blood vessels so maybe that’s what you were feeling🤷🏽♀️ but it’s good things went back to normal shortly after that
I got gifted a massage gun! (yay) but there was literally no warnings in the manual about where to use and avoid useage on the body.. you'd think there woudl be like 10 tips... anywho glad for youtube existing!!
Oh no I always use my massage gun on my neck! My shoulders and neck hurt all the time. My grandmother bought me a heated Triducna back and neck wrap around massager. It did a pretty good job of alleviating the pain in my neck and shoulders, but I only got to use it a handful of times before the Plastic massage apparatus broke through the mesh, twisted up into my hair. I had a handful of hair twisted up in that massage machine that I had to cut to get the massager off of my head. I feel badly that she spent $60 on that thing that I only got to use a few times. unfortunately, the company doesn’t have a phone number listed, which is not a good sign. I emailed them and I’m waiting to hear back..
I just got the Q2 and I LOVE it!! I am giving one to my Adult son for his birthday this week and my daughter already said she wants one for her b-day. We are telling everyone about it. haha
So0mething else. A lot of people think the highest setting is the best to use. Often a lower setting will give better relief over a larger area even if it takes longer. I find the high settings on some of these more painful than helpful. I want the muscles to relax of their own accord, not be beaten into submission.
I don't have a bullet gun, just one of those massage guns that only vibrates. Do the same rules apply? It does vibrate pretty strongly. I use it on the side of my neck and shoulder to relieve the chronic pain I have there. Sometimes I do get the base of my skull which is really uncomfortable as it feels like my skull is getting rattled around. I have noticed the past two nights a really weird ringing in my right ear after I'm done. I'm deaf and already have tinnitus, but it's usually a steady long beep/whistle sound. After I massage my neck, it sounds like a tech machine that's messing up and making weird tech noises. It goes away eventually, but it does concern me. I want to stop using my massage gun just in case, but when the chronic pain causes migraines, numbness and tingling and weakness down the shoulder and arm, and just lots of pain, any form of relief is heaven. (FYI I have a tear in my C6/7 disc which is where all the pain and symptoms originate from. But massaging the side of my neck and shoulder relieves the symptoms so I can function.)
I'm using one on my dog. Only massaging the muscle tissues on her legs. Good to know I'm doing it right. She falls asleep as soon as I start. She loves it. 😂
Have you guys covered any adjuncts for folks who are told to use one of those prescription artery squeezing machines for 3 months 'then see if limb still needs amputation' - because it seems there's a lot could be done and they are relying only on one thing [for folks who have a clot] and also there can be at least a two week delay before a machine becomes available in my country. They are to spend 3 hours twice a day on them, but would have thought many other adjuncts possible??
I have dysautonomia and have been using my massage gun to help with hiccups and burps, can you elaborate as to why you wouldn't use one on the abdomen? Is it to prevent twisted/bruised organs?
I had a problem with that, it can damage the small bones in the ears. I lost most of my hearing in one ear for a few days, from massaging the area around the TMJ and the side of the temples. I wouldn't do it again.

Me watching this while I have the deep massage gun on my neck : 👁👄👁
😂😂😂
Big facts
I mainly use it for my neck 😮
@Master Marc Subliminals not in it, but around it yes.
Same.
Oh man,Ive been doing so many wrong things😮 Well thank you Lord for leading me to this video 🙏🏾
Why what were you using it for?
I was injured by one used by a chiropractor! He put it on a high setting at the top of my neck on the right side, again and again. I told him it hurt a little, but he said he was trying to move the axis. Months later, my right arm went paralyzed! I got an MRI and had developed a lesion on the spinal cord! He gave me complimentary lazer therapy, but it didn't help. I stopped going to him. With time and other treatments, it improved. But 13 years later, my hand still goes numb.
Wow that's crazy, that also goes to show what lazer therapy is snake oil.
That was probably an activator, not a massage gun
@@TheRentFan No it was a massage gun. I have been going to Chiropractors for decades. I have had an activator used many times. 💕
Wow 😢 hope you continue to improve
Sue him
Maybe go a little bit in depth as to why we shouldn't use it on certain areas would greatly appreciate it thank you for your work you guys are awesome
Focus on the cause and not the effect and we will never be manipulated 🙌🏽
I just purchased one and I am now watching some videos to prepare myself on what to do and what not to do. Great video!

I think they were just saying don’t go near the vertebrae, stay on the meat of the muscle away from spine area. And not on a strong setting.
Yeah be very careful in the neck area. I used a Theragun around my neck and I don't know if I hit an artery or something and I swear I had an irregular heartbeat for a couple of minutes and then it went back to normal.
These companies should provide better warning about areas to avoid.
I have the white one and use it at the lowest speed on my upper arm. It definitely provides great relief.
Great to hear!

You can definitely use it on the neck muscles. You have to have the right adaptors and be careful is all.

I feel the same. It helps me a lot with the pain in my neck and jawlines.

3:00 I saw a varicose vein starting on my calf. I thought I could gun it away. Whoa. Great to know. 👍🏼THANKS!
So strange they said not to massage the abdomen, but in the user manual for the Bob and Brad T2 it has instructions for the abdomen??
I love your massage small gun .since i started using it in my legs and glúteos the cramps are gone.thank you very much 😊 ❤
what about the Psoas Muscle?

Thank you so much!
So which parts exactly we can massage !!
Leg muscles - quads, lower legs and soles of feet.
Great info, thank you!
How about an old hip replacement area? The bone hurts, but if I could just do the muscles around it I think it would help?
What is the risk using on TMJ?
Definitely avoid the carotid arteries.
I just got the Q2 and I LOVE it!! I am giving one to my Adult son for his birthday this week and my daughter already said she wants one for her b-day. We are telling everyone about it. haha

Thanks, guys - just found you. Great information - Dave.
Mentioned not using over cancer. So include moles
Where the bloody hell can you use it?
😂😂😂 lol
What do you all think about lymphatic drainage?
I don't have a bullet gun, just one of those massage guns that only vibrates. Do the same rules apply? It does vibrate pretty strongly. I use it on the side of my neck and shoulder to relieve the chronic pain I have there. Sometimes I do get the base of my skull which is really uncomfortable as it feels like my skull is getting rattled around. I have noticed the past two nights a really weird ringing in my right ear after I'm done. I'm deaf and already have tinnitus, but it's usually a steady long beep/whistle sound. After I massage my neck, it sounds like a tech machine that's messing up and making weird tech noises. It goes away eventually, but it does concern me.

Which podcast was mentioned? I looked but am not sure of the name so don’t know what I am looking for. Which one is about fascia? Thanks!
What are your views on whole body vibration platforms ?! Good or bad ?

1 month ago i badly injured myself...soft tissue onlu...not in the atlas c1 or c2...
I literally did all the things your not supposed to the minute I got it 😂
Do not use on neck. A family member died after doing this from a huge brain bleed which I believe was caused by a carotid dissection.
Sorry to hear that. We agree not to use it on the neck.
I expected to hear not along the spine itself. Ouch!
:)
I used the fork shaped literally on my neck,and have been facing pain in my neck for the past 3 months,any advise

I’m scared now.
Why is it bad to use a massager for TMJ? Honest question 🤔
I would think the pressure and/or percussive action could cause greater issues ( pain, misalignment, etc,)
I had a problem with that, it can damage the small bones in the ears. I lost most of my hearing in one ear for a few days, from massaging the area around the TMJ and the side of the temples. I wouldn't do it again.
Wow, okay good to know. Thank you so much!
@@lesleylesley5821 Thanks!

So what to do if you now screw up your neck arteries from massage gun and tingling nerve ice or let it heal
for a review reason can you disclousure the "like dislike" data?
Me watching this saying "Oops! I've done all of the above!"
Thumbnail looking like an Archie comic lmao 🤣
Bob and Shaun the best
What about bruises or back knots.
You can use it for back knots, but I wouldn't use it on bruises as it could make it worse.
I have heel and ankle pain and very tight calves. Is it safe to use on those areas?
Just keep it low/light awa keep it MOVING in circular motions.
...and use padding between gun & body.
What is the risk using on TMJ?
