The design is characterized by the softness of the shape. The button characters are engraved and only minimal red highlights are incorporated. In addition, the lower part of the body is surrounded by a non-slip material to ensure better grip during massaging.

In addition to training, recovery is just as important. The massage gun has become established in the sports market. heads up is a small addition for sports lovers to accompany them in training and in everyday life without a lot of additional ballast.

Although there are already many proposals for massage guns on the market, they are usually very heavy, equipped with many additional attachments and quite bulky due to their size. I like to go to the gym with my small sports shoulder bag, but I can't find space for a massage gun, and my bag is already quite heavy because of the water bottle, clothes and shoes, which is why taking it with me turns out to be very unattractive. The design for heads up has addressed this problem and shines with its slim housing and lower weight. heads up has a universal attachment to avoid unnecessary case housings and attachment tools that are usually not used. The focus is on creating an inconspicuous tool that fits effortlessly into everyday training.

It should be small and handy. A rounded shape with soft edges and minimalist buttons resulted in this design. The name heads up describes the shape of the massage gun, which has its head protruding upwards.

The size and thickness of the gun body could finally be determined using a salt dough model in order to fit perfectly in the user's hand.

little help - big impact
Despite the simple design, there is no lack of functionality. The soft handle sits comfortably in the hand, while you don't have to twist it because the gun is built at an angle to perfectly hit the areas to be massaged. The buttons are easy to reach with your fingers and are reduced to the most necessary functions. This minimalism ultimately results in a smaller and lighter case. heads up is reduced in size and function, but opens doors to a wider range of possible uses, such as on the go, directly after sport and also when traveling. heads up is a little helper with a big impact!
