All exercises with the massage gun for the back
How to use the massage gun on your back.
You can use the massage gun on your back. The important thing is not to massage directly on your spine, but to stick to the soft tissue. You can easily use the massage gun on your lower back by yourself; to reach other parts of your back, it’s best to have a second person help you relieve tension in your back with the massage gun.
