MPU6050 safe to use with glue? My current project involves embedding an MPU6050 accelerometer into straps, one of which goes below the knee, the other above the knee. 

I need to fit the sensor into the strap and currently i have 6-core multi-threaded wire soldered directly into the board. This doesn't facilitate the greatest of long term stability, as too much strain and the wires will just pull out and break.

What I am wondering is if it is OK to:


cover the wire side of the board in glue from a hot glue gun? 
                 Would this have any possible conductivity issues or risk damaging the wires or board itself?
If it is OK to use the hot glue, would it be possible to cover the entire MPU6050 in the glue without compromising performance. This would leave me with a really solid sensor for embedding if so!


Any answers to the above questions would be greatly appreciated and I would be extremely grateful for any alternative options as well. I would like to keep the wires soldered into the board as it is extremely tidy and makes for easier embedding than if I were to use another connector.
Would this have any possible conductivity issues 


Nope.

Nope.

Sure.

This is known as "potting". You can get special potting compounds, but hot glue is just as good.
