The most common form of percussion massager is that of a handheld device with a protruding knob at one end, which—when [the device is] activated—will both vibrate vigorously as well as thrust repeatedly back and forth, providing both a kneading action to the tissue it impacts as well as the added benefit of smaller vibratory movements. 3, record 1, English, - percussion%20massager
