#### How Professional Baseball Players Benefit from the Power Massager
It’s clear that the Power Massager lives up to its name, bringing serious, powerful recovery massages to athletes at all levels. But let’s dive a little deeper than looking at what the Power Massager does and take a look at the effects it has on your body.
We spoke to Nick Decker - 2018 [draft pick for the Boston Red Sox](http://www.milb.com/player/index.jsp?sid=milb&player_id=678006#/career/R/hitting/2018/ALL) - about the incredible benefits of the Power Massager. “The TimTam Power massager has been a game changer for my recovery,” he said, “It can get the spots that a foam roller might not be able to.” The Power Massager is great to reaching targeted muscle areas like shoulders, pecs, glutes, quads, and more with precision, making it easy to break up knots and prevent bursas.
Decker went on to say, “\[The Power Massager\] breaks up all the lactic acid and gets real deep in the tissues that build up after working out.” This focus on lactic acid breakdown can assist in reducing recovery times by up to 30%, allowing you to bring your A-game day after day. This quick recovery, as Decker says, is crucial for a long season as a top performer in the league. The massage provided by the Power Massager can help you grow as an athlete with every treatment, with the regular deep tissue massage proven to increase performance by 2-5%.
Athletes, following treatment from the Power Massager, are less sore the following day and are able to put 100% into their workouts every day. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your arms for improved throwing or doing speed training to improve baserunning and fielding, the Power Massager is there to relieve pain every step of the way.
