Do Cordless Massagers Break up the Scar Tissue
The response is no，a cordless massager cannot directly break down deep scar tissue. Cordless massagers act on the skin and superficial soft tissues through high-frequency vibrations and cannot penetrate deep into fibrotic scar tissue. However, by increasing local blood circulation by about 20% and relaxing surrounding tissues, they can accelerate the recovery process as a rehabilitation aid.
Role as a Rehab Aid
Promoting blood circulation
The massager enhances local blood flow through high-frequency vibrations, increasing blood supply to the tissues. A study found that local blood flow can increase by over 30 percent within five minutes of using a vibrating massager. Improved blood circulation can lead to faster cell regeneration and a reduction in tissue stiffness.
Muscle tension relief
A ABEGETcordless massager can be used to reduce daily muscle tension and stress, particularly in stiff and weak muscles. Using the massager for five to ten minutes can decrease muscle tension by about 20 percent. The cordless massager is especially effective when used on muscles surrounding scars.
Increase in range of motion
Adhesions around scar tissue can also affect mobility. Most medical surveys have shown that after using a cordless massager for 10 minutes a day over an eight-week period, the range of motion can increase by 15 to 20 percent. Therefore, cordless massagers can not only relieve symptoms but also enhance body flexibility with long-term use.
Limitations in Deep Scar Tissue Rehabilitation
While Low noise massagers can be effective in the recovery of superficial scar tissue, they are not suitable for deeply situated scars. First, over time, deep scar tissue is likely to become harder and denser, as it can maintain its structure for years. Second, it is unrealistic to think that simple vibrations from a massager would be able to break down fibrotic tissue due to its density and depth.
Furthermore, advanced medical institutions have demonstrated that deep fibrotic tissue cannot be effectively treated using simple techniques like massage or with a cordless massager. Even when performing Deep Tissue Massage, additional pressure is required to reach the deep fibrotic tissue and break down the fiber bundles. This process is essential for reducing scar tissue stiffness and adhesions, allowing patients to work and train without pain.
Correct Use of Cordless Massagers
Proper use of cordless massagers in the rehabilitation of scar tissue has the potential to improve therapeutic outcomes. The following are some key points and the actual effects of proper use:
Frequency and Duration
It is recommended to use the Deep Tissue Massage Tool 1-2 times a day, for 5-10 minutes each session, focusing on the muscle tissue near the scar. This method can promote local blood circulation and reduce muscle tension in the surrounding tissue.
Rehabilitation Effect and Data Support
According to research from sports medicine institutions, after 8 weeks of regular use, users of the cordless massager experienced a 15%-20% increase in their range of motion. While the cordless massager cannot directly break down deep scar tissue, it can reduce tension in the surrounding tissues, soften them, and make soft tissue more elastic, thereby facilitating further therapeutic interventions.
Multi-level Combined Treatment
The notion is that when it comes to deep scar tissue, sticking to a single therapy type results in limited outcomes. They are located around deeper muscles or joints, meaning that they cannot be reached through the treatment applied by fascia massage guns. Thus, it is advisable to integrate the appliance with physical therapy as well as deep tissue massage and other professional treatments. Due to its elasticity with the corresponding stiffness, the tools contribute to smoothening and reducing the adhesions of scar tissue.
On the one hand, including the appliance in the therapeutic process, can accelerate the recovery of scar tissue. For example, in the study to develop a scar rehabilitation protocol, the results showed that the scores of pain decreased by 30% after 12 weeks of combined therapy and that the range of motions increased by 20%. Therefore, even though the cordless massager is beneficial as an auxiliary tool facilitating the relief of superficial symptoms, the combination of the appliance with physical therapy as well as deep tissue massage leads to the best results of rehabilitation.
