Description

Fascia gun structure

The present invention relates to a fascia gun structure, especially using the extension connecting part to connect the body of the massage stick to extend the overall length of the fascia gun structure, which is convenient for the user to massage the parts of the body that are not easily accessible by hands, and then stretch the surrounding fascia , especially, the extension connecting part includes a sleeve part, a rotating part and a handle part, and the rotating part has a button, which can control the rotation between the sleeve part connected to the rotating part and the handle part to form an appropriate angle, so that the extension The connecting part is formed into a curved shape, so that the massage part of the massage stick body can more easily contact the parts and fascia that need to be massaged.

For a long time, muscle fatigue and soreness are very common physiological symptoms of modern people, which may be caused by lack of regular exercise or frequent poor posture. However, with the advancement of medicine, it has become more and more discovered that fascia also plays a very important role in body pain.

It is generally believed that fascia is a layer of dense connective tissue that runs through the body, mainly surrounding muscles, muscle groups, blood vessels, and nerves. The role of the nerve, so it is also called the second bone. Fascia can be divided into several layers, called superficial fascia, deep fascia, and visceral fascia, especially extending and running through the whole body.

Specifically, fascia contains closely and regularly arranged collagen fibers, and the direction of collagen fibers is along the direction of tension, so fascia has strong unidirectional tensile properties. Furthermore, fascia is a structure that passively transmits mechanical tension, and some studies have shown that fascia can contract independently, which can affect the mechanical properties of muscles. In addition, myofascia reduces muscle friction, allowing muscles to glide over each other.

The body can make any movement repeatedly, because the fascia covers the muscles so that it can be smooth. If it is long-term lack of exercise, aging, hunchback or cross-legged living habits, etc., it will cause the fascia to pull each other, produce sticking, and cause the muscles to become stiff, or contract abnormally, or even twist and skew, and the body will also become deformed. will be skewed. At this time, it will further cause blood circulation and lymph flow to be unsmooth, and joint pain may also occur.

In order to improve or prevent such a situation, it is necessary to focus on the release or relaxation of the fascia, and by loosening the sticky fascia, it relieves muscle tension and promotes blood circulation and lymphatic flow. Therefore, relaxing the sticky fascia can achieve the function of improving the pain and stiffness of the whole body.

Among the conventional techniques, a massager or a massage stick is a fairly effective and common household appliance device, which can relieve muscle fatigue and soreness in a short period of time.

The general massager uses the vibration force generated by the motor to push the massage head, and when in use, the massager is held by the hand, and then the massage head is aimed at the massage area, so the reaction force generated by the massager is directly generated by the hand. bear. Since the massager must have a considerable weight to achieve the massage effect, and the massager itself also needs to be equipped with an electric motor and a battery, the hand of the user holding the massager is prone to fatigue.

In order to solve the above problems, the relevant industry has been working on reducing the size of the massager as much as possible to facilitate the operation with one hand. However, for body parts far away from the hands, such as calves, ankles, toes, soles, or The parts that are not easily accessible by the hands, such as the back, therefore, the user needs to stretch or bend the hands reluctantly to allow the massager to touch these parts that need to be massaged. Obviously, the user's hands will be more prone to fatigue and even injuries, such as sprains or strains, but the gains outweigh the losses.

Therefore, there is a great need for an innovative fascia gun structure to stretch the fascia, and use the extension connection to connect the massage stick body to extend the overall length of the fascia gun structure, which is convenient for users to massage parts of the body that are not easily accessible by hand, and then Realize the function of stretching the peripheral fascia, especially, the extension connecting part includes a sleeve part, a rotating part and a handle part, and the rotating part has a button, which can control the rotation between the sleeve part and the handle part connected to the rotating part. An appropriate included angle is formed so that the extension connecting part forms a curved shape, so that the massaging part of the massage stick body can more easily contact the parts and fascia that need to be massaged, so as to solve all the problems of the above-mentioned conventional technology.

The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a fascia gun structure for stretching and massaging the fascia.
