Therabody - Theragun Sense (2nd Generation) - Relaxing Massage With On-Screen Guided Routines For Stress Relief - Black

I purchased this product for a relative who has rheumatoid arthritis. Since its purchase, it has been used for relief from IT Band flare-ups, cramping on various parts of the body as well as post work recover. I definitely would recommend this item to a friend.

I had always been on the fence about getting a massager because of the price but it is 100% worth the investment. Your body will thank you. It works seamlessly with your phone. I use it at night to prepare for bed and it has feautures through the app that walk you through proper usage. Complete game changer with making your body feel rested. Especially if you have a very physical job that you’re on the go and on your feet constantly.

Absolutely love this. The app shows exactly how to do it and makes the buggest difference that freestyling it.

I’ve been using my new Theragun Sense, from Therabody, for a week now. This is my first ever experience with a Theragun and I had no idea what I was missing! Therabody, was created in 2008 by Dr. Jason Wersland, who invented the first ever hand-held massage device, after an accident left him in debilitating pain. Today, Therabody, is the go-to company for hand-held massage devices, which are incredibly well made, easy to use and OH SO effective. Their devices combine scientific research, cutting edge technology and real feedback for easy to use solutions which help reduce pain, stress and tension and all I can say is it works. When you get your Theragun, it comes well packaged, with the device in a nice protective soft case, the USB C charging cable, two massage attachments, a booklet entitled Unit Warnings and some cards, which guide you to learn about routines you can set up in the App from Therabody. Instead of a printed Quick Start Guide, when you open the box, it’s printed on the inside of box. The directions are plain and simple, and you scan the QR code to download the app to your iOS or Android phone. Logging in to the app, was simple and straightforward. I charged it first, then the app walks you through connecting your device, which was easy enough. I’m honestly not sure what to say about the App. It could be intimidating to some, but you can choose from 4 pre-programmed routines for different body parts and muscle groups, which then sends that to the device, and they run in 5-minute intervals. There’s an LCD screen on the device, which will show what routine is being used with guidance to show you where to massage and for how long. You can turn the intensity up or down, via the two buttons above and below the LCD screen. Overall, while I’m sure the app may be useful to some, I’ll be more inclined to just power up the Sense and use it on sore muscles as opposed to running a routine. I mentioned there are two massage attachments. One is the standard ball which is attached out of the box. The other is a Dampener which is wider and designed to blunt the percussive force of the device, providing a gentler, low-impact massage ideal for sensitive or tender areas of the body. What I had no clue was how exactly to replace one for the other. There really is no full user guide and I didn’t want to break the device out of the box, so I wound up watching a YouTube video which clearly showed how to remove and replace the attachment. Simply said, you pull it with some force as it’s attached over a bearing, which you then align the other attachment over and push in place. Overall, I’m really loving my new Theragun Sense, from Therabody. It’s truly well made. It’s easy to use. It’s remarkably quiet in use. And it feels GREAT on sore muscles! If you have any soreness as most of us do, this is a great investment for sure.

Theragun Sense 2nd Generation is quite helpful in its latest version at least as first impression. Using it, it feels light, easy to hold while moving around the different part of the muscle. Easy to grab from different angle, and doesn’t feel heavy at all. Now, in the package, it includes the Theragun, charging cable USB-C, travel pack, and two attachments (Dampener and Standard Ball). On the device, it has a LCD screen to indicate the power, battery status, charging status and timing while using it. Then hardware level buttons to Turn On, Start/Stop, Increase, Decrease. It also shows the symbol of Bluetooth when it is being connected to the phone and Therabody App. Replacing the attachments It requires to pull out to remove from the device, and push to place again. It is simple, but at first need to make sure two slots within the attachment match with respective side from the end side of the Theragun. Setting up the App and Using it. For new user, it requires to create new user as every app. But also it allows to sync with activities from Garmin, Strava, and Apple Health. Based the activity, it recommends post workout sessions. It includes video and time of duration to perform in each step. Now further in using it, it feels comfortable as moving between different muscle. It is light and easy to switch how to grab it in real time. What I wish it were better: 1. Carrying Travel Case: it is neoprene a like case. I would preferred a hard case alike considering its price point. 2. App Sync: Once it sync from Garmin, it doesn’t update back with the completed session. Every details remains only within Theragun App. Hence at least from Garmin Connect or Starva, can’t have the full list of activities. I find it is positive feature that based on the activity synchronized from third party app can suggest automatically the routine. But it is not integrated back to third party app. 3. Location of the Turn On/Off button: During the test, I experienced several time that as I change the angle of grabbing it, and unintentionally grab the upper side of the front next other buttons, I end up touching it and power off. Maybe it depend on each user, but happened too frequently. To end, compared to previous version, it look more practical, less bulky, weight less good for travel prep, it has good indicator from the LED, it has good integration with the App. From the App recommended routine, as it count the min and when it ends, automatically ends on the hardware side as well. Good and responsive with very well integrated function between software and hardware.
