Protocol for Using Percussion Massage Device
1. Start With Higher Setting And Superficially (With Gentle Pressure) Trace The Entire Surface Of The Muscle. Setting 2 Is Generally Sufficient For The Upper Body.
2. Take A Mental Note Of Dense Or Sensitive Points. Manual Therapists May Use The Opposite Hand To Palpate For Taut Bands And Nodules (Trigger Points).
3. Stay Away From Areas Where The Bone Is Superficial. Using Percussion Massage Devices Over Bone May Be Uncomfortable, Painful, And/Or Cause Bruising. Placing A Finger Or Thumb Over Bony Protuberances Will Prevent Accidental Contact.
4. Using A Piece With A Smaller Surface Area And Lower Setting (Setting 1), Return To The Dense/Sensitive Points Using Deeper Compression.
It May Be Helpful To Add Tension Or Slack By Shortening Or Lengthening The Target Tissue.
5. The Brookbush Institute Recommends 30 Seconds To 2 Minutes Per Muscle Group, And 5 Minutes As An Upper Limit Even In The Case Of Multiple Trigger Points.
