The Mantis Mount is one of those unsung heroes in the world of fitness.
Ever since massage guns came out and took the recovery world by storm, they’ve become a staple in home gyms.
But with massage guns comes a very common issue.
How do you massage your back by yourself?
Unless you have the shoulder mobility of a contortionist, it’s hard to do.
But thankfully, that’s where the Mantis Mount comes in handy.
Unboxing the Mantis Mount
Mantis Mount can securely attach your massage gun to almost any doorway, squat rack, or pole.
The massage gun holder and accessories come inside a drawstring bag.
Inside the bag you have the Mantis Mount, a short strap, a long strap, and a strap with hooks.
The Mount
The mount is made out of the strongest plastic out there.
The material is PA66 30% glass filled, sometimes called glass filled nylon.
The front of the mount has a padded, cylindrical shape to it.
This is called the saddle and it’s where your massage gun sits.
The back is also padded and fits on door frames, weight racks, and around poles.
From the back, you can see there is a horizontal gap separating the top and bottom of the mount.
This space is where one of the straps will run when attaching it to a squat rack or door frame.
The Straps
Two of the straps use ladder lock buckles.
The small strap is used to attach the handle of the massage gun to the Mantis Mount.
The large strap is used to connect the massage gun and mount to a weight rack.
You can also use this large strap to pinch the mount between your door frame and door.
You also get a third strap with a side release buckle.
This one has two hooks at each end and it’s used to attach the whole mount and gun set up on a door frame without the need to shut your door.
Attaching the Massager to the Mount
To attach the massage gun to the mount, you use the short strap.
You’ll see there is a slit on the bottom front of the mount.
Slide the strap through there, place the massage gun on the saddle, and tighten the strap.
Mantis Mount on a Weight Rack
The massage gun holder can be used on both a door frames and a weight racks.
In the video above you’ll see how to attach it to both easily.
Door Frame Mount
The strap with the side release buckles and hooks works to mount your massage gun on the inside of a door frame.
This is different from the long strap because you don’t need to shut a door to hold the mount in place.
You simply hook the strap to the sides of your door frame.
Once it’s mounted on your door frame, pull the loose end of the strap towards you to make it tight.
Massage Gun Compatibility
The Mantis Mount is designed to be used with most models of massage guns.
Normal handle diameter is 2”, so for devices with smaller diameter handles they will simply sit deeper into the divot of the saddle.
I’ve used the mount on a couple of TimTam massagers and a Hypervolt and it worked just fine.
