What is fascia?
A little knowledge of anatomy every day, fascia.

I. myofascia

Myofascium belongs to deep fascia, which refers to the fascia that wraps the muscle, but it is sometimes used to refer to the whole formed by the muscle and fascia, which means that the muscle and fascia are bound together. Myofascium is like a "tights" worn on the muscle surface. When the myofascia is affected, then the muscles of our body will inevitably change. On the contrary, if the muscle changes, the myofascia will also adapt to the muscle changes. The interaction between them makes them inseparable.

Second, the characteristics of fascia

Fascia is like jelly. When the body moves, it generates a lot of heat, which makes our fascia tend to be liquid. The more fluid in fascia tissue, the more room for muscle expansion. Similarly, lack of exercise and keeping the same posture for a long time will make the abdomen thick and sticky. This is why people feel stiff after sitting for a long time or lying down.

Third, what is the use of fascia gun?

When we finish a lot of exercise and work for a long time, the muscle tension caused needs to be relaxed in time to avoid discomfort for a long time. At this time, we use the interaction between fascia and muscle, through the high-frequency vibration of fascia gun, and at the same time use a force transfer effect to transfer force and vibration to the fascia that wraps the muscle in our body, thus breaking up the stuck fascia, accelerating blood circulation and relaxing the muscle tissue of our body.

Fourth, how to choose the fascia gun correctly?

1. Look at the amplitude. Amplitude determines depth. The treasure of sports and fitness 8- 10 mm, Youer is a novice. If you don't grasp the time well, it is easy to damage the muscles if the amplitude is too large.

2. Look at the thrust. When the fascial gun used for fitness is above 13kg, the deep muscles can relax quickly, instead of just staying on the surface. Insufficient thrust will also affect the user's massage experience.

3. Look at the weight, the fascia gun for professional fitness is the best when it is 500~700g g. It has a certain weight to reduce the numbness caused by vibration, and it will not be too heavy to cause wrist pain.

4. Look at the battery, the longer the battery life, the better, because we will use the high-end power supply many times, the battery capacity is high, and it is not necessary to charge it often, so it is more convenient to take it out.

Five, fascia gun use guide

When using fascia gun, we need to pay attention to the following points:

1. Don't hit joints and bones (wrist, back column, etc. ).

2. Areas with dense nerves, blood vessels and lymph (armpit, posterior cranial fossa of knee joint, etc.). ).

3. The use time should not be too long, and each part should not exceed 3-5 minutes. The overall continuous use time is about 10 minute.

4. The blow should be moderate, not too big.
