OneHow harmful is a cervical massager for the cervical spine?
How harmful is a cervical massager for the cervical spine?Many people feel neck discomfort in the face of life stress, and neck massagers are loved by people as an effective way to relieve stress. However, the neck massagers on the market are uneven, and there are a large number of substandard products. These bad products not only fail to provide us with the expected comfortable massage experience, but also bring a lot of harm to our health, I will talk about it in detail below
, dizziness and headache. Some unprofessional neck massagers may cause too strong stimulation to the muscles and nerves of the cervical spine, and the excessive pressure will lead to insufficient blood supply to the neck, and dizziness is easy to occur at this time. Among them, the electric pulse massager is more prone to this kind of problem.
, neck stiffness and even loss of consciousness. If the massager is of inferior quality or the massage area is small, the neck may become stiff or partially unconscious, and the normal rotation of the neck may be affected.
, muscle fibrosis or atrophy. Inferior products, wrong use, and overuse may lead to atrophy of the muscles in the shoulder and neck area, and many people do not pay attention to this problem because of the low probability.
4. Aggravation of cervical spondylosis. The cervical massager is operated by local transmission or kneading, if we use a massage device with poor compatibility or pulse, the professional long-term use has caused serious irritation to the cervical spine, the cervical spondylosis is deepened, and the neck is more and more painful.

How harmful is a cervical massager for the cervical spine?Earlier, we have conducted an in-depth review of the five major hazards of inferior neck massagers. However, these hazards are mainly caused by the unscrupulous means of commercial competition and the design defects of products. Some businesses without social morality sacrifice product quality to make neck massager products. So today I'm going to unveil the shady curtain behind these for you!I also compiled a special negative evaluation of the TOP10 inferior neck massager from the industry information network (as shown below), from which we can also see that everyone generally complains about the problem of hurting muscles!
1. Insufficient kneading accuracy. There are many muscles, blood vessels, nerves, etc. in the shoulder and neck area, and they are very sensitive
2. Excessive pursuit of depth and strength. The depth and strength of the massage are not as large as possible, but to choose a better one that takes into account the massage strength and comfort, otherwise the muscles will be damaged although the strength is too large, resulting in discomfort for the shoulder and neck.
, single motorAccelerated product lossIf a single-motor massager is used, the load on the motor will be larger, not only the kinetic energy utilization efficiency will be greatly reduced, but also the loss of the machine will be accelerated, and the stability of the force is very poor, it is easy to damage the muscles.

How harmful is a cervical massager for the cervical spine?Although we all reject the harmfulness of inferior neck massagers, as long as we master certain purchasing skills and buy high-quality professional products, we don't have to worry about the harm. A high-quality and professional neck massager can not only bring us a relaxing and pleasant massage experience, but also have many other benefits. So how can you choose a high-quality neck massager?The following eight tips for buying are shared with you.

Massage depth and strength requirements. Some businesses blindly pursue strength and depth, in fact, it is unreasonable, to avoid choosing products that promote the depth and strength of massage too much, and to avoid damaging muscles, you have to take into account the massage strength, depth and comfort.
BrandsTechnical tuning capabilitiesProfessional brands will take into account the core transmission performance and massage comfort of the product more in place. There are a large number of adjustment indicators and technical optimizations for the uniformity of massage strength, massage depth, transmission frequency stability, kneading accuracy and range, etc.
It should not be too lowBelow 300 yuan are mostly OEM products or Internet celebrity products, they have no technical tuning and material guarantee, the use process is easy to damage the muscles, and the general feedback massage effect and other performance is insufficient, long-term use of high attenuation!There are even repeated quality problems.
Kneading precision requirements. The cervical massager with high precision of massage landing point is affected by the performance quality of the motor and the technical tuning of the brand, which can effectively protect the blood vessels, nerves and muscles of our shoulder and neck parts

SelectSilence is betterofThe noise generation is closely related to the quality of the motor and the precision of the motor structure, and less than 40 decibels not only has better product performance, but also a more comfortable experience.
The massage area should be sufficient. The massage area directly affects the soothing effect of the massage and is key in terms of the massage head. If the distribution of the massage head used is concentrated, it will lead to a small range of massage area, the massage effect will be greatly reduced, and the experience will be very poor!Choosing four massage heads with a trapezoidal distribution can take into account the trapezius muscles, bringing a better massage experience.
Dual motors are preferred. The dual motors will improve the efficiency of kinetic energy utilization and will greatly reduce the load on the motor. Under long-term use, the transmission attenuation degree is lower, and the strength stability is better, and the service life is longer.
Battery selectionA little betterChoose a cervical massager with a battery capacity of more than 2200 mAh, the battery life is sufficient, and the general neck massager can be used about 8-10 times in 10 minutes at a time!But it should be noted that the battery used in the inferior product is poor, and the battery shrinks very seriously after a little longer use!

How harmful is a cervical massager for the cervical spine?Seeing this, everyone understands that the reason for the harm of the neck massager is because of the quality of the product. In fact, ignoring the contraindications of use, using a high-quality neck massager may also cause harm to our body. Next, I will give you a detailed introduction to the six taboos of using a neck massager.
*Upload processing.
1. It is forbidden to use it in water or wet places. The cervical massager is an electronic product, and the probability of machine damage, fire or electric shock after contact with water or moisture is greatly increased. Therefore, do not use the cervical massager when taking a bath or in the bathroom, kitchen, etc.
Avoid overuse of the current pulse massager:The frequency of using the current pulse massager should not be too high, because it is a direct shock stimulation of our neck. Too high a frequency can easily relax the muscles, which will not achieve a good massage effect, and will also damage the muscles.
Pay attention to the frequency of use:Even when using a traditional physical kneading massager, be mindful of the frequency of use. Generally speaking, it is recommended not to exceed 2 times a day, and each massage time is 10 minutes.

Select the appropriate compression pressure. It is not that the effect of massage will be better if you choose a larger force, so as to avoid the mistake of pursuing too much force. When you first start using it, you can choose the most suitable and comfortable massage strength for yourself.
The ambient air used should be circulated:Do not use it in places with poor air circulation, otherwise it may cause the machine to heat up, fire, electric shock, or cause injury to the user.
6. Pay attention to sensitivity**. **More sensitive people should pay attention to the use time should not be too long, so as not to cause local heat and aggravation of **sensitivity.
How harmful is a cervical massager for the cervical spine?The key lies in our choice of products. If we are confused by the merchant and choose inferior products due to the lack of understanding of the neck massager, not only can we not enjoy the expected massage effect, but also can easily cause serious harm to our health. Therefore, we should keep up with excellent brand products, and pay attention to technical brands with R&D strength when purchasing, so as to buy high-quality products that meet our hearts.
