Cotsoco are well known as a leading supplier of percussive massage guns and this new model, the M779, is one of the most powerful in their range. Increasingly athletes and trainers are using this type of percussive massager for specialised muscle care rather than the older vibrating massagers.

This model from Cotsoco uses a stroke percussive technique which is said to be better for the deep tissue massage often needed by athletes. For this reason, the £39.99 device is perhaps targeted at the sports market rather than the mainstream healthcare arena. The usual percussive stroke distance is 12mm but this model gives a 14mm delivery for added power and effect.

In the attractive box can be found the massage gun itself, ten fearsome-looking heads, a head storage net bag, two spare seals, a UK plug power supply, and two well-printed and informative User Guides. Also included is a robust semi-rigid carry case with customed shaped inserts. Build quality is first-rate and the massage gun looks well capable of standing up to hours of use in the gym and at home.

The 20w motor runs at 1300-3500 rpm, the fastest in the Cotsoco range, with no less than 30 selectable speeds but this is offset by the slightly shorter running time and a lower battery capacity of 2600mAh. A 3-4 charge should give a run time of five hours or more.

The ten heads, each with descriptive names just click in place and are just as easy to remove. They are each designed to target specific areas:

Massage Heads
Mushroom Head - Joints, Muscles
Gyro Head - Soft Tissues
U Shape Head - Spine
Spade Head - Hamstrings, Glutes
Long Taper - Deep Soft Tissues, Joints
Round Head - Large Muscle Groups
Bulge Head - Forearms
Semi Circular - Shoulders, arms
Flat Head - Whole Body
Thumb Head - Soft Tissues

Using the massager is easy enough and pretty intuitive. After fully charging click your selected massage head into place, and switch on using the turret switch on the base. The backlit LCD on the rear of the massager's head will show the current massage speed and battery level with touch buttons to select the massage speed and start the massage.

This device can be used both before and after workouts to tone and soothe strained muscles or to prepare for a strenuous exercise session. Take care only to use on soft tissue areas and not directly on to hard or bony areas or on the head. Commonsense will tell you to also avoid bruised or painful areas. When in operation take care to keep your fingers away from the gap between the oscillating head and the body. This is not an error you will make more than once.

The effect of using the unit is immediate and dramatic and due to the power of the device, it should be used with care. It does a good job of imitating the pummelling massage technique often used in sports therapy and does seem to work for specific toning techniques. The noise level is low and at just 30-45dB at the maximum 3500 rpm speed in no way either annoying or distracting. The unit will switch off automatically after 10 minutes of sustained use to prevent tissue damage.

I have tried quite a few massagers of this type and this is one of the least expensive and most powerful. It is built to professional standards if not for Pro use and should last for years. If you need a sports massager, I doubt you will find a more powerful or better equipped one than this.
