With the gradual deterioration of the physical fitness of contemporary young people, the health of the cervical spine has begun to light up the red light, and people spend more and more time brushing short videos and burying their heads in work every day, and the neck presents health problems of varying severity. Many people choose to use a neck massager for relief, which is a wise choice. But as a senior nurse, I recommend you to use the neck massager at the same time, but also to remind everyone to pay attention to the quality of the product, many people complain that the neck massager has uneven compression, massage is not accurate and other muscle problems, so how much harm is the inferior neck massager?
(The picture above is a neck massager that has been tried in part)
1. How harmful is the neck massager?
The neck massager is one of the most frequently used portable instruments, mainly to relieve cervical spine discomfort through massage and kneading operations. However, not all neck massagers have good performance and safety, and inferior neck massagers will suffer endless problems once they are used!
1. Neck stiffness or loss of consciousness. If you use inferior products or have a small massage area and too much massage force, it will also cause neck stiffness or loss of sensation due to excessive stimulation, and even the normal rotation of the neck will be affected, endangering normal life.
2. It can cause dizziness and headache. The muscles or nerves of the cervical spine are very fragile, and some unprofessional neck massagers may overstimulate them during use, and the dense blood vessels of the cervical spine have a sense of compression, which makes the blood supply insufficient and causes dizziness and other symptoms. Especially current pulse massagers, this type of massager is more prone to such problems.
3. The risk of fibrosis or atrophy occurs in the muscles. When the strength of the neck massager is uneven or overused, the musculature of the neck and shoulder area and the intricate nervous system will be seriously damaged, the original function of the muscles will be inhibited, and muscle fibrosis and atrophy will occur, which we cannot ignore because of its small possibility.
4. Aggravation of cervical spondylosis. Neck massager uses kneading or local transmission for massage, its compatibility is very important for different people, if we use a massager or pulse massager with poor compatibility, in the long-term use of the cervical spine to a large extent to stimulate the cervical spine, cervical spondylosis may gradually deepen, the neck more painful.
2. Beware of the four major defects of inferior neck massagers, which will hurt muscles!
After reading the previous introduction to the harm of inferior neck massager, I believe that everyone will pay more attention to the quality of neck massager, a professional neck massager can bring us many benefits, and inferior and unprofessional neck massager will make our health be greatly threatened, so what is the reason for the harm of this kind of product? I found a list of user complaints about neck massagers (see the picture below), you can see more clearly the reasons for the harm of inferior products, and I will list four points below:
1. Overemphasizing the depth and strength of the massage. The depth and strength of the massage is not as large as possible, you should avoid choosing a neck massager that pursues too much massage depth or strength, but choose a better one that takes into account the massage strength and comfort, otherwise although the force is too large, the muscles will be damaged, resulting in discomfort in the shoulder and neck.
2. Use a single-motor massager. If a single motor is used, the load of the motor will be larger, the kinetic energy utilization efficiency will be greatly reduced, and the loss of the machine will be accelerated, and the stability of the force is very poor, which will easily damage the muscles.
3. Useless functions are superimposed. Many neck massagers will add many useless features, such as built-in fragrance, smart APP, force sensing, audio, etc., which will have a serious impact on the structural stability and reliability of the neck massager. These additional features reduce the stability, precision, and uniformity of the massage process and increase the risk of injuring muscles, while also shortening the life of the neck massager.
4. Lack of kneading accuracy. The neck and shoulders have many important muscles, blood vessels, and nerves, which are very sensitive. If there is a deviation during the massage, not only will the actual massage effect be reduced, but it may also hurt the muscles.
3. The four major benefits of a high-quality neck massager!
After reading about how harmful an unprofessional neck massager is, you don't have to panic too much, as long as you choose it in the right way, you don't have to worry about the harm when you buy professional products.

Benefit 2: Reduce the risk of cold in the shoulders and neck. The hot compress function is common in the current neck massager, which can knead our neck and shoulders during the massage process, and can also apply hot compresses at the same time, which is very warm and comfortable, reduces the situation of cold air entering the body, and effectively avoids the cold and cold of the shoulder and neck.
Benefit 3: It can prevent cervical spine disease. Nowadays, there are many people suffering from frozen shoulder and cervical spondylosis, and the use of neck massager can effectively relieve neck fatigue through a certain regular massage and kneading operation, and the stiffness of shoulder and neck muscles is also improved, and can promote blood circulation, which helps to prevent cervical spondylosis.

4. Eight tips for choosing a neck massager!
No matter what kind of fanciful publicity businesses make about their own neck massagers, as a consumer, we must look at it dialectically and be wary of those neck massagers that do not have professional and technical strength, because we have learned in detail how harmful inferior neck massagers are. In the face of the chaotic neck massager market, it is still difficult to choose a professional neck massager without professional selection guidance, so I will introduce you to eight purchase skills, remember to live!
1. The level of professional strength of the brand. Professional brands will take into account the massage comfort and transmission performance at the core of the product. There are a large number of adjustment indicators and technical optimizations for various parameters such as massage depth, transmission frequency stability, uniformity of massage strength, kneading accuracy and range, etc.
2. Kneading accuracy requirements. The neck massager with high accuracy of massage landing point is affected by the motor performance quality and brand technology tuning, which can effectively protect the muscles, blood vessels and nerves of our shoulder and neck parts.
3. Wearing comfort is very important. For example, the choice of materials in contact with the skin, the breathability of the material, the tightness of the neck, the feeling of heaviness of the shoulders and neck, etc., such factors should be paid attention to.
4. Requirements for massage depth and strength. Some businesses blindly pursue strength and depth, in fact, it is unreasonable, if you want to avoid damage to muscles, you can't overly promote massage depth and strength products, you have to take into account massage strength, depth and comfort.
5. The choice of price should be reasonable. Many of the products below 300 yuan are OEM products or Internet celebrity products, they do not have technical tuning and material guarantee, it is easy to damage the muscles during use, and the general feedback massage effect and other performance is insufficient, and the attenuation degree of long-term use is high!
6. Select Mute. The generation of noise is closely related to the quality of the motor and the precision of the motor structure, and choosing less than 40 decibels not only has better product performance, but also has a more comfortable experience.
7. 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 smaller range of massage area, and the effect of massage will be greatly reduced, which will make people uncomfortable! If you want to solve this problem, you should choose four massage heads and trapezoidal distribution can take into account the trapezius muscle, bringing a better massage experience.
8. Dual motors are better. 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.
5. Be wary of the six taboos for the use of neck massagers!
The quality of neck massager products is very important for our physical health. But we should also note that if we ignore the contraindications of using the neck massager during use, it may also cause harm to our body. Next, I will give you a detailed introduction to the six taboos of using a neck massager.
1. Satiety, fasting and alcohol are not suitable to use, at this time the body itself has high blood pressure, and it is easy to make the blood flow rapidly after continuous kneading of massage, which will lead to accelerated stomach peristalsis, which may cause chest tightness, vomiting and other situations.
2. The frequency of the current pulse massager should not be too high, the frequency is too high, it will easily cause muscle relaxation, because it is directly electric shock stimulation of our neck, it will not achieve a good massage effect, and even damage the muscles.
3. You need to pay attention to the frequency of use in ordinary use, generally speaking, it is recommended that 2 times a day should not be too much, and each massage time should be 10 minutes.
4. Pay attention to the circulation of the ambient air used, and do not use it in places with poor air circulation, otherwise it may cause the machine to heat, fire, electric shock or cause injury to the user.
5. People with sensitive skin should pay attention to the fact that the use time should not be too long, so as not to aggravate the skin sensitivity caused by local heat.
6. It is not that the massage effect will be better if you choose a larger force, so as to avoid the misunderstanding of pursuing too much strength. When you first start using it, you can choose the most suitable and comfortable massage strength for yourself.
