This new massage gun from the strangely named EKUPUZ company is lighter in weight and comes with fewer massaging heads than many of the rivals I have tried but is less costly at just £29.97 before discounts (and yes, there are additional discounts) but comes with all the essential features needed as well as some extras.

Increasingly athletes and trainers are using this type of percussive massager for specialised muscle care rather than the older vibrating massagers. This massager type is easier to self administer and at just 650g is light enough for one handed use.

Massage guns such as this uses a stroke percussive technique which is said to be better for the deep tissue massage often needed by athletes. For this reason, the massager is perhaps targeted at the sports market rather than the mainstream healthcare arena. The usual percussive stroke distance is 12mm and despite the low price, this feature is included.

In the attractive box can be found the massage gun itself, six fearsome-looking heads, a USB charging cable, and a well written and informative User Guide. Unlike with most of the rivals, there is no bulky external charger or power supply needed, as the device can be charged from almost any USB outlet - be sure to use a port or adapter offering a full 5v/2A output, as some older or cheap units do not. Build quality of the massager although lightweight seems fine and the massage gun looks well capable of standing up to hours of use in the gym and at home.

The low-noise motor runs at up to 3300 rpm, with no less than 30 selectable speeds but this is offset by the slightly shorter running time, lower rechargeable battery capacity and slightly slower charging time. A 3 hour charge should give a run time of four to six hours or more.

The six heads, each with descriptive names just click in place and are just as easy to remove. They are each designed to target specific areas:

Massage Heads
Ball. – Large Muscle Groups
Bullet. – Deep Tissues, Tendons
Shovel - Whole Body
U-Shape - Spine, Neck, Shoulders
Thumb - Hands, Soft Tissue
Flat. – Back, Muscles, Relaxation

Using the massager is easy enough and pretty intuitive. After fully charging click your selected massage head into place, and switch on using the touchpad on the rear control panel. The backlit LCD on the rear of the massager’s head will show the current massage speed and battery level with touch buttons to select the massage speed and start and end the massage.

This device can be used both before and after workouts to tone and soothe strained muscles or to prepare for a strenuous exercise session. Take care only to use on soft tissue areas and not directly on hard or bony areas or the head. Commonsense will tell you to also avoid bruised or painful areas. When in operation take care to keep your fingers away from the gap between the oscillating head and the body. This is not an error you will make more than once.

The effect of using the unit is immediate and dramatic and due to the power of the device, it should be used with care. It does a good job of imitating the pummelling massage technique often used in sports therapy and does seem to work for specific toning techniques. The noise level is low and at just 45dB at the maximum 3300 rpm speed in no way either annoying or distracting. The unit will switch off automatically after 10 minutes of sustained use to prevent tissue damage.

I have tried quite a few massagers of this type and this is the least expensive and simplest to use I have yet tried. It has a slightly reduced maximum speed, battery capacity and marginally slower charging time than the more expensive rivals but it has no uneeded whistles and bells but all the key features of a massage gun are here. It is built to professional standards if not for Pro use and I think should last for years. If you need a sports massager, I doubt you will find a more powerful or better equipped one than this for the low price.
