Thank you Bob, and Brad! Your videos are sooo helpful, and at a great price, free! Thank you so much!
Appreciate you guys... So important to keep updating old topics with new and even tried and true information. Because these are still relevant and prevalent conditions. Thank you
Thank you to both of you. I have been thinking about buying one of these tools. This segment was a giant help to me
I actually used the bullet attachment right on my peroneus longus muscle where it ties into the tibia just below the knee, on the outside of my calf muscle. That was what was causing my knee pain! Love the videos guys keep up the good work!
Best of all available physiotherapist on UA-cam channel
You guys are my go to for any kind of body pain. Awesome!!
Bob and Brad, I really appreciate your videos. They are very informative for self help, especially when you have ongoing issues like myself. My friend who is a physical therapist that has been taking care of me several times over the years for issues I had until we moved away, she put me on to your videos and highly recommended you. I am in my 70 and as you know things sort of go down hill at that age 😊 I am in PT therapy right now for my SI joint but you have a lot of videos that are ment for me and I want to thank you again for educating us.😊👍❤️
I love you guys, keep up the great work
I had kee pain for a few weeks, recentlly it got even worst I used this massage once and pain is gone, it's unbelivable. Thank you so much!
Great information - thanks. And the other one you just did on back pain is very helpful for me. Will you please do one on hip joint pain, too? It bothers me in bed and sometimes wakes me up with pain on both sides so it's hard to find a comfortable position. Oh, by the way, "adhese" is not a word. I think the word you're looking for is "adhere." The noun is adhesion, but the verb is adhere.
bob and brad your timing is impeccable. how many times a day should i work these muscles with this video?
Thank you!
This is the first time I've ever thought of actually using a massage gun.
I think this is brilliant and I do structural body work.
best friendship ever i see on social media ❤️
Thanks
Would this be good if you have leg spasticity with MS? I can't bend my right knee as I have so much tightness in my leg.
I have one of your small massage guns. Excellent quality! Far better than a generic Chinese one I had.
What’s the brand name of the one they have?
I’m a truck driver and my right knee hurts from pushing the pedal down i been trying to figure out why it hurts . I’m going to have to try this out thanks!
Did you you get a massage gun Art? If so did you pain reduce? Hope so! :O)
Any suggestions for knee pain that is just below the knee cap?
Hi, do you have any advice about Baker’s @bob&brad
Cyst? I have it for 2 years now, no prior knees issues. The pain doesn’t allow me to run or play tennis. I can walk mostly ok. Orthopaedic suggested physiotherapy sessions…
I’ll need this soon. Running a 12 hour endurance race
WOW! That's amazing!!!
You better massage the race out of you
Thanks guys. Really helpful. No wonder you are so famous.
Inside sources say they are doing a movie deal!
When will the Program for using a massage gun be posted on your website ?
If you have knee pain that came from nowhere you should consider Vit D deficiency. That's my personal experience. For 8 years I had pain at the top of my kneecap. I could only feel it when climbing steps and especially in the winter. I tried physio and various sports but no change.
I started taking Vit D3 8000iu and K2 MK7 200mcg (daily). Three months later the pain disappeared, just like that! 😂 magic
I have left inner knee tenderness and a slight consistent click when extending while sitting.
Will the bob and brad massage gun get rid of the clicking?
I've noticed while squatting my left knee feels weak and unstable compared to right knee
nice reivew ....gg well played.
What is link to buy the product to strengthen the lungs. Blowing in and out
These massage guns are fantastic.
So true. Wish I got one years ago. Oh well, better late than never. General level of aches and pains WAY down... thank god.
Hey Bob and Brad do you think this gun is less aggressive than the theragun? My pt doc isn’t too crazy about those for that reason. Thanks!!
Pretty sure the Thera' is indeed stronger. I've got a 'Renpho' and with 6 'power' settings find that '1' is great for hyper sensitive areas and '6' is a killer where and when you need it.
Yes bob and Bred. I have a meniscal injury which is lateral meniscus tears so is there exact medicine for this, my injury time is 5 month, whether its herbal medicine or other formal medicine which kind of medicine can I use, I am 20 yrs old .THNKS FROM ETHIOPIA.
TENS unit! One electrode above the knee and one electrode below the knee; behind the leg, not the front!! WORKS!
Interesting Randy and thanks for posting. Do you apply a constant or cycling flow to oscillate the relative muscles/tissues? And for how long?
@@TheOmnipresent12 I apply a cycling oscillation to the knee for about ten to twenty minutes! Have to work those muscles and tendons!
@@randymcwaters5231 I appreciate that Randy. Will definitely keep in mind.
I see you have a machine for moving your feet forward and back but socks on a heavy plastic bag tape which is taped down would work very well if you pay attention to the alignment of your hips, knees, and feet. --- And then I listen to minute more and you suggested the same.
I consider myself complemented and I compliment you.
look good
Hi I've had a knee replacement, I can't bend my knee past 90 degrees, which is a problem for walking downstairs and I can't do a full revolution on a bike because it can't bend enough, I can feel the muscle behind my knee go really stiff and not move. How would I use a massage gun to get more movement in the knee.
Thanks James
A massage is not recommended after a joint replacement unless direct assistance from Dr or PT. Brad
@@BobandBrad I had my replacement about 4 years ago and I only had 3 sessions with physiotherapy which clearly wasn't enough. Is there anything I can do to get my knee to bend past 90 degrees?
Thanks James
"Knees over toes guy" can help :)
THANK YOU FOR NOT CHANGING THE JINGLE!
DON'T TAKE OUR JINGLE AWAY FROM US
Anyone have an idea where to massage on the leg to stop back knee pain? When my knee is bent is fine then when I try to straighten it the pain comes.
I'd suggest to 'work around' the area and 'close in' on it if no improvements are felt. Breaks the rules a little in regards what B&B say in this video but if you finally have no results by proxy'... I'd 'move in' if gently to the very specific area. B&B 'might' even agree with this with the proviso' that you (GENTLY)... go outside the circle a little. Let us know how you go! Hope you'll get some reprieve!
@@TheOmnipresent12 so, it’s been several days. I’ve stopped exercising completely to heal the knee although I do take walks. I stopped icing and just massage. I found pain comes from the hip and groin areas. I do massage behind the knee and keep the massage gun on the soar areas for about 20 seconds. I can already feel improvements.
@@menevar7529 Maybe do a little work at each end (and across) your iliotibial fascia/areas. In your case I wonder the the uppers iliotibial area may to some degree be affecting you towards the deeper/inner groin. B&B often say not to go near the bursa and I agree, however I go a little 'outside the circle' on this one and VERY gently 'tap on' the bursa. I'm perhaps breaking the rules on this a little, but I do feel it works *for me*... If you try this do so at your own risk and again... ONLY DO very, very lightly. In your case I would also add that *I* do VERY light 'tapping' right on my kneecap. But again, B&B don't advocate this. I find that this has the effect of 'loosening' up the knee cap. I fully imagine this may not be possible for some and may have no effect at all. Note also that B&B advise to ONLY go around the outskirts of the patella and even then to 'go easy' when/if doing so.
Not after TKR, surely?
I hope that somewhere in the video, I'm only at 3 minutes, that you will tell specifically which massage gun this is.
I don't think there is a HUGE amount of difference with the gun types except to say that a $20.00 one may well be garbage.
I've got a 'Renpho' and can safely say, it's excellent at around $100.00 give or take 10.
this "gun" and other products are listed specifically - Find it: look just below the name of their channel below the video where it says "Bob & Brad"; click on "Show More" there at the bottom and you'll see the specifics of exactly what they're using
You guys think your funny. Well.... as a man thinketh so is he. Yes thank you for always coaxing a smile or tummy grunt out of me. 😁
I get a burning pain on the outside of the kneecap.
Me too

My knee's s so swollen I can't even imagine bending them
following Bob & Brad's recommendations can instantly reduce this swelling. I've seen it happen for myself.
Used it on my heart. Now it beats 3x as fast but I can also run 3x as fast, so that’s cool.
I wanna be buried with that jingle
I threw my back out this morning. I could use one of those 🤕
Not much knee massaging going on.
You need to fire your hairstylist Bob. Whoever it is just doesn’t have your best interest at heart.
I think bob look fresh af
Are you looking for hot dates in your neighbourhood?
Love the videos guys. Well, I've got my 'gun' now and have been having some *great* results over the last few weeks. But just wondering... with respect to my thighs... I have some areas of skin that are hyper sensitive (ever heard of an awful condition called Meralgia Paresthetica?). Thus I'm feeling that when using my massager that not only are we massaging muscle (deeper trigger points and such) but also massaging can I say the not so deep 'fascial adhesions' layer. I'm actually feeling that by 'proxy' in loosening up adhesion affected areas that it is 'allowing' the femoral nerve and more particularly the lower branches of the nerve to once again move more freely and/or receive more/better blood flow. Certainly my pain has reduced quite a lot since utilising the massager. I have to set the power to 'one' and only lightly percuss super hyper-sensitive areas BUT I feel that these areas are 'loosening up' and also the hyper sensitivity is (slowly but surely) reducing. In areas that are not hyper sensitive I'll massage deeper into muscle and increase the power setting to encourage blood flow if especially nearer to hyper sensitive areas.
My theory is that in loosening up my higher than normal amount of fascial adhesions around the Fem' nerve that it turn, its nerve branches are being stimulated by or with more/better blood flow moving more pervasively throughout and around the affected areas. There is most definitely a 'no pain no gain' basis in the case of my particular degree of success and I'd suggest to others to ONLY start doing this *very* lightly on out-skirting hyper sensitive areas, but certainly to increase pressure and area as much as you can bear. Thanks
