Flexgun mini ball head placed on the muscle at the top of the shoulder, beside the neck

How to use it on your neck, safely

1. Flat or ball head, lowest speed. Seated or standing.

2. Work the muscle between your neck and the point of your shoulder. Keep it moving. 60 to 90 seconds each side, before your stretches.

3. Never on the front or sides of your neck, or on your spine. Use only on muscles.

Stop and get assessed if you feel pins and needles, numbness or weakness in an arm, or dizziness.

  • For you if

    • You sit at a screen most of the day and finish with a tight neck and heavy shoulders.
    • You want two minutes a side, at your desk or on the couch.
    • You want a routine with the limits stated.
  • Not for you if

    • Your neck pain is new or severe, or comes with pins and needles, numbness, weakness or dizziness. Get assessed first.
    • You have a recent neck injury or neck surgery and have not been cleared.
    • You want to change the shape of your upper back. No massage device does that.

Five reasons it suits desk work

  1. Reaches your own upper traps one-handed

    460g and short in the hand. Hold it across your chest onto the top of your shoulder.

  2. Low speed for the smaller muscles

    10mm amplitude, 14.5kg stall force. The lowest speed with the flat or ball head suits the muscles beside the neck.

  3. The routine comes from a physiotherapist

    Written by a registered physiotherapist and reviewed before it went up. Two minutes a side, and it says where not to go.

  4. Fits a bag and a two-minute break

    Zip carry case, four heads, USB-C charging. It lives in a work bag or a desk drawer.

  5. It says what it will not do

    It eases tension in the muscle. It will not change the shape of your upper back. 30 days to send it back if it does not help.

    “There's no better feeling than coming home after work at the end of the day and releasing whatever I've been using that day. I really like the size of the gun as others I have used are too difficult to handle.”

Questions before you buy

Can I use it on my neck?

Yes, on the muscle at the top of your shoulders: flat or ball head, lowest speed, 60 to 90 seconds a side.

Keep it off the front and sides of your neck and off the bony ridge of your spine. Those areas carry the airway, the main arteries and bone, and none of them should take percussion.

Stop and get assessed if you notice pins and needles, numbness or weakness in an arm, dizziness, or pain that wakes you at night. Do not use it after a recent neck injury or neck surgery unless you have been cleared.

Will it get rid of my neck hump?

No. It eases the tension, not the shape.

A neck hump is the position of your upper back and the strength of the muscles holding it there. Percussion does not change the angle of the thoracic spine. What it does is take the edge off the tight upper traps, which makes the corrective exercise easier to keep up.

Our physiotherapist's guide to the three kinds of neck hump and the 8-week program cover what does change the shape.

Who should not use it?

Do not use it on a recent neck injury or after neck surgery without being cleared first. Stop and get assessed if you have pins and needles, numbness or weakness in an arm, dizziness, or pain that wakes you at night. Never use it on the front or sides of your neck, or on your spine.

This is general information and does not replace an individual assessment. If your pain is severe or ongoing, see a physiotherapist or your GP.
