In this video, Doctor Jo shows you how to safely and effectively use a massage gun on the many muscles surrounding the knee to relieve knee pain, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation.

Massage guns work by delivering rapid, gentle pulses to target deep muscle fibers. This can help relax tight muscles, break up scar tissue and adhesions, and minimize tension and soreness. Focusing on surrounding areas like the quads, hamstrings, calves, and IT band can help bring powerful relief.

Keep in mind that while Massage guns can be a helpful tool for relieving knee pain in many people, they’re not right for everyone. Before using one, it’s important to check with your doctor and understand any precautions. Certain conditions or injuries may make massage guns unsafe or less effective, so make sure they’re appropriate for your specific situation.
