Abstract(s)
Antecedentes: A pistola de massagem - um dispositivo portátil de massagem por percussão - está a ser cada vez mais utilizada no desporto e na fisioterapia devido aos efeitos positivos que se diz terem no corpo.
Objetivo: Estudar os potenciais efeitos da pistola de massagem na performance, dor ou funcionalidade.
Metodologia: Foi efetuada uma pesquisa na Biblioteca Cochrane, PubMed e SciELO de estudos que investigassem os efeitos da pistola de massagem, publicados em inglês, português e francês, utilizando o seguinte algoritmo; "theragun OR (percussive massage gun) OR (percussion massage gun) OR (massage gun) OR (Percussion Therapy) OR (Percussive Therapy) OR (percussion treatment) OR (Vibratory massage)".
Resultados: Foram selecionados 9 estudos, a maioria dos quais centrados na performance. A pistola de massagem parece ter efeitos potenciais na performance, mas também na dor e na funcionalidade.
Conclusão: Ainda há falta de estudos sobre o assunto para concluir sobre a utilização da pistola de massagem, mesmo que os estudos pareçam demonstrar certas aplicações possíveis.
Background: The massage gun - a portable percussive massage device - is increasingly used in sports and physiotherapy, and it is said to have positive effects on the body. Aim: To investigate the potential effects of the massage gun on performance, pain or functionality. Methodology: A search on Cochrane Library, PubMed, and SciELO for studies investigating the effects of the massage gun, published in English, Portuguese and French, was performed, using the following algorithm: "theragun OR (percussive massage gun) OR (percussion massage gun) OR (massage gun) OR (Percussion Therapy) OR (Percussive Therapy) OR (percussion treatment) OR (Vibratory massage)". Results: 9 studies were selected, most of which focused on performance. The massage gun appears to have potential effects on performance, but also on pain and functionality. Conclusion: There is still a lack of studies on the subject to conclude on the use of the massage gun, even if the studies seem to demonstrate some possible applications.
