After-work relaxation with a massage gun
5-minute after-work program for relaxation
The majority of people have an office job, which puts certain strains on the body. Sitting in front of the computer all day usually means little and very one-sided movement. The neck, back, legs and arms are particularly affected.
This programme was designed with these particular stresses in mind. It addresses the stressed body parts and enables relaxation and feel-good moments through the targeted loosening of the muscles by the massage gun. With a massage gun, you can do this comfortably every evening on the couch and are not dependent on appointments in massage practices, which are many times higher in the long run than the purchase of a massage gun.
The following massage gun is suitable for this program
The application of the massage gun on the trapezius muscles
Staring at the computer screen for hours on end puts extra strain on our neck and makes it prone to tense muscles. To loosen this muscle group, it is recommended to massage the trapezius muscles.
Note: You should not use the massage gun directly on your neck, so the trapezius muscle is recommended to loosen the neck muscles.
Massage head: We recommend you the round massage head for the application on the trapezius muscles.
Right trapezius muscle:
- Start at A and gently glide to B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.
- Repeat this for about 30 seconds.
- You should choose the speed level that is most comfortable for you.
Left trapezius muscle:
- As on the right side, start again at A and gently glide to B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.
- Repeat this for about 30 seconds.
- You should choose the speed level that is most comfortable for you.
The use of the massage gun on the lower back
Sitting for hours in front of the computer, depending on the ergonomic office equipment and personal sitting posture, puts strain on the lower back. This can lead to tension and discomfort in the lower back, which is why it is recommended to massage the lower back to relax the muscles.
Massage head: We recommend you the round massage head for the application on the lower back.
Lower back (right):
- Start at A and gently and slowly glide to B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.

Using the massage gun on the back of the thighs
Due to the constant sitting during the working day, our body weight is mainly on the back thighs and buttocks. In addition to exercise, a massage of this area of the body is extremely good after a long day and provides relaxation.
Massage head: We recommend you to use the round massage head for the application on the rear thighs.
Rear thigh (right):
- Start at A and gently and slowly glide to B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.

- Repeat this for about 30 seconds.
- You should choose the speed level that is most comfortable for you.
The application of the massage gun on the calves
Our leg muscles are hardly exercised by frequent and long periods of sitting and also receive less blood flow, which is why you should get up and move around from time to time during the working day. The calf muscles in particular are hardly activated when there is little movement, which is why a massage of the calves with a massage gun is recommended.
Massage head: We recommend you to use the flat massage head for the application on the calves.
Right calf:
- Start at A and gently and slowly glide to B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.
- Repeat this for about 30 seconds.
- You should choose the speed level that is most comfortable for you.
Left calf:
- As with the right calf, start at A and gently and slowly glide towards B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.
- Repeat this for about 30 seconds.
- You should choose the speed level that is most comfortable for you.
The application of the massage gun on the forearms
When working with a computer, our forearms are exposed to hours of stress and one-sided movements. In addition to operating the keyboard, one hand also has to operate the computer mouse all day. The tendons and muscles of this hand are particularly affected by tension and fatigue. It is recommended to massage the forearms, especially the hand that operates the computer mouse, with a massage device.
Massage head: We recommend you to use the round massage head for the application on the forearms.
Left forearm:
- Start at A and gently and slowly glide to B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.
- Repeat this for about 30 seconds.
- You should choose the speed level that is most comfortable for you.
Right forearm:
- As with the left forearm, start at A and gently and slowly glide towards B. You should always move the massage gun and not massage a single spot for too long.
- Repeat this for about 30 seconds.
- You should choose the speed level that is most comfortable for you.
