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.

This massage gun is easy to hold and use. It’s helpful that it comes with two attachments depending on what you're using it for. It has the regular and then one you use for more sensitive areas. It has 5 speed levels. It had some charge right out of the box, but I charged it fully before my first use. I’ve been using it all week and it’s still about half charged. It comes with a nice carrying case that fits the gun, the attachments, the 3 quick start massage cards as well as the charging cord. The app is a great addition and I highly recommend trying it out. Once you connect it to the app, you have lots of options, depending on the type of goals and activities you select. It offers guided options that guide you in what part of the body to use it on, how long, what speed, and when it’s time to move to the next part. The routines that I now use regularly are sleep prep and sitting recovery options for the times when I have to spend hours working on reports. You can, of course, you can just pick it up to use wherever you need without the app too. You can also use the guided routines directly from the screen on the gun, which is a great option if one of the little ones is using my phone. I look forward to using it each day for different reasons. The guided routines are not too long, they are about 3-8 minutes depending on which I use. I use this massage gun all the time, after I work out, when I’m sitting for a long time, when I wake up in the morning, before bed and then any other time that I might need it. Especially when I have back aches and tension headaches. It has made such a big difference in how I feel. Now that I have it, I can’t imagine not using it. It really works. My body feels so much better, it relieves my soreness and makes me feel more relaxed each time I use it. But it doesn’t make me tired, it just makes me feel well. I think I will have to buy one for Christmas for the family to share. This way, I can hide this one so that I have access to it whenever I want. They all think this is great and love using it so at times, I have to wait my turn.

The product works quite well. I wish it had more than two speeds. When using the product, don’t focus on an area too long, you will start to itch. The built in programs are phenomenal. I love how the App assist with usage and location. The on-device screen is sufficient; it will guide you to the areas that you’re going to work out. The time built-in times help you to not over stimulate your muscles/tissue. I think I’m going to get the more expensive one. This product is a great introduction into muscle massage.

To this me this handle is the best upgrade to notate for me. It looks weird but overlook that because it allows for major versatility. Also the copper color accents are really nice to look at. All black isn’t bad but it’s nice to have a splash of color. Of course you get 2 knobs but I find myself only using one and putting the other one away but if you use them both it’s a simple tug down to release and and push up to tighten and start using. The little screen is interesting for me. I just press the button and hold until I feel the vibration and start using. The first setting is strong enough for me. But you can increase it. The screen will show you the power then length of time it’s been used. Press and hold to turn off. Again back to the handle it really does fit almost any angle that I want to use it. Overall this is my favorite yet. It’s a little too big for traveling with so I still have my smaller one so this one stays home and I use it almost everyday. Getting older and this keeps my muscles loose.

Great theragun, much more ergonomic compared to the mini. The app and screen are quite useful. Most importantly the routines within the app help guide users who might not be as familiar with the massaging process.

Got this as a gift and love it. Easy to use. Easy to charge. Lots of features but still does the basic things right.

Works great, really makes sore muscles feel better. Also good for prior to a run.

Long battery life and good for prepping for workout & recovery.

Work perfect. It has helped so much with my girlfriends muscle pain.

Great device for everyday massage and stress relief. Impact is lighter than most guns but hits just right to loosen tight back muscles. Battery life is also good, would highly recommend.

Unboxing: A Surprisingly Thoughtful Start Opening the Theragun Sense 2nd Generation feels like unboxing something genuinely premium. Everything you need is right there in the box - no hunting for extra cables, no last-minute accessory purchases, no confusion. Therabody clearly put effort into making sure you can start using the device immediately (the only thing missing is the charging block) The setup guide is refreshingly simple. Even if you’re not tech-inclined, the step-by-step instructions make the process quick and painless. Within minutes, you’re ready for your first session, which is exactly what you want from a wellness device. Easy Controls One of the standout features is how easy it is to control everything directly from the built-in screen. You can switch modes, adjust intensity, and browse programs without flipping through a manual. The menus are clean and intuitive, so you always know what you’re selecting. Whether you’re dealing with sudden tension or sticking to a daily routine, the device lets you adjust on the fly without slowing you down. Battery Life: Long-Lasting and Fast to Recharge The battery performance is genuinely impressive. You can get around three days of regular use before needing to recharge, which means you’re not constantly tethered to an outlet. And when it *does* need a charge, it only takes a little over an hour to get back to full power. For anyone with a busy schedule, that quick turnaround is a huge plus. App Integration: Nice to Have A companion app is available and works rather well and offers a bit more than just the devices' internal options. Most of the routines, guidance, and targeted massage suggestions appear right on the device’s screen as well.. This is a big win for people who would rather want to rely an app to keep up with their routines. You can power on the device and start a guided session immediately, complete with on-screen instructions that feel like having a mini massage therapist coaching you through each step. Ergonomics: Designed for Real-World Comfort The design of the Theragun Sense makes it surprisingly comfortable to hold, even when you’re reaching for awkward spots like your lower back or shoulders. It’s not bulky, and the grip feels natural in your hand. Because the weight is balanced well, you can use it for longer sessions without your hand or wrist getting tired. That alone makes it more usable than many other massage guns on the market. Pain Relief: Where It Really Shines This device truly excels at relieving neck and shoulder tension - one of the most common pain points for people who sit at desks or carry stress in their upper body. It also works wonders on feet, legs, and the lower back. You get relief almost immediately, and with consistent use, mobility and overall comfort improve noticeably. Whether you’re recovering from workouts or dealing with everyday aches, the Theragun Sense delivers results that feel close to a professional massage. Is It Worth the Price? It’s definitely on the higher end of the price spectrum, but the value is there. When you compare the cost to regular massage appointments - often $50 to $100 per session - the device pays for itself quickly. Plus, having high-quality, on-demand relief at home is something you can’t really put a price on. The sleek black and copper color options are a nice touch too, adding a bit of style to your wellness setup. Final Thoughts The Theragun Sense 2nd Generation is more than just a massage gun - it’s a well-designed, easy-to-use tool that genuinely supports your long-term wellness. With its intuitive controls, strong battery life, ergonomic design, and proven pain-relief performance, it earns its place as a premium device. If you’re looking for a reliable, effective way to manage pain, improve mobility, or simply unwind after a long day, this massage gun is a smart investment that delivers on its promises.

This is a good mid-tier model updated with the screen. It's pretty good.

Works great and very useful for those everyday soreness

Life changing product, really helps decrease stress and sore muscles.

I have been using this Theragun for a couple weeks and it has become my preferred device for relaxation following a demanding workday or workout. I often experience shoulder tension from prolonged computer use, and this massage gun provides targeted relief without the excessive intensity found in some other models I have tried. I like the design. It is lightweight and compact, allowing me to retrieve it easily from my bedside table or include it in my travel bag. The triangular handle allows for use on the back without uncomfortable positioning, and it operates with minimal noise. The integrated screen is a useful feature too. It provides step by step guidance for routines The app is fairly useful too. Connecting via Bluetooth enables personalized recommendations based on my current needs, such as a brief back treatment or a treatment before bed. It offers five speed settings up to 2,400 percussions per minute, using gentle therapy rather than forceful impact. It's suitable for someone like me who is not a professional athlete. The battery lasts for multiple uses, though it could be extended for more intensive applications. Pros: Intuitive with guided programs, premium construction, effective for routine stress and discomfort, and the attachments address a variety of requirements. It has notably enhanced my sleep quality and reduced ongoing tightness. Cons: Price. It is somewhat expensive, and for those seeking vigorous deep-tissue massage, a more powerful option would be preferable. Additionally, the carrying case lacks would be better as a hardcase rather than soft. But if you are in search of an intelligent tool for daily relaxation rather than heavy-duty recovery, I recommend it.

INTRODUCTION: This is my first high-end handheld massage tool, and I was eager to try it out. I have neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, and the occasional leg pain from years of carrying heavy backpacks, purses, and standing and walking for long periods of time in the wrong shoes. I really need to go to a chiropractor, but in the meantime, I wanted something that I could use at home. When the opportunity came for me to try this, I jumped on it. The Therabody Theragun Sense comes with two massage attachments: a dampener for concentrated tender areas (such as my sore shoulders), and a standard ball attachment that is bigger in size and is meant for general use anywhere on the body. Neither ball attachment is soft; both attachments are pretty firm. DESIGN & SPECS: The Therabody Theragun Sense comes with five percussion speeds ranging from 1750 to 2400. It also comes with four pre-programmed routines set at different time intervals, such as sleep prep for six minutes, 3:30 minutes for back pain, four minutes for tension relief, and one called lower body recovery for 8:30 minutes. The instruction pamphlet also comes with three routine guides which tell you step by step how to hold the device, which attachment to use, and on what areas. The Theragun Sense is Bluetooth enabled, so you can sync it to the Therabody app on your phone where you can further customize routines. You can also download up to five routines from the app onto the device. Personally, I don’t use the app, as the pre-installed routines are enough for me. The LCD screen will show you how much pressure you’re using; if you are using a lot of force, you will see the LCD screen switch from the speed screen to a bar screen. If you’re seeing bars displayed on the screen, you are using a lot of pressure. The higher up the bars are means the more pressure you are using, less amount of bars on the screen means less pressure. Everyone is different; I personally do not like to use too much pressure while using the Sense because this is a powerful device; you will absolutely hurt yourself if you use this incorrectly. If you are experiencing more than the moderate amount of pain and discomfort while using the Sense, you might want to adjust how much pressure you’re using to avoid hurting yourself. PROS: I really like that the Theragun Sense massage gun comes with a pouch to keep it in. I think this would be good for traveling. I like that the device is fairly easy to use while also being not too heavy; it weighs almost two pounds (or 1.61 pounds). I have weak wrists, so I need a device that is lightweight and easier to hold for long periods of time. I also like that Therabody installed massage routines onto the Sense for all areas of the body because it means I don’t have to guess what to do nor the amount of time needed to do it. After turning it on, I pick a routine, place the massage gun on the area illustrated on the LCD screen, and let the Theragun Sense take care of the rest. I use what is depicted on the screen as a guide to make sure I have the device placed in the right spot. I use the routines for tension relief and back pain the most. If you don’t want to use the installed routines, you can use the “quick start” mode, or what I refer to as a free style mode and use the machine wherever you’d like for as long as you like. This mode comes with customizable speeds, and I prefer to keep it at its lowest speed (1750) while using on tender areas such as my shoulders and neck area. I appreciate that the Sense does have five speeds because sometimes the maximum speed (2400) can be too much on my body. Lastly, I like the design of the Theragun Sense. Due to the triangled shape of the ergonomic handle, you can grip the device from at least three angles. This design enables you to use the Sense on any area of your body, including lower back, buttocks, legs, and feet. The Sense has a relatively quiet motor, so even in its fastest setting it’s still quiet to use and shouldn’t disturb others around you, though it’s obviously quieter on the 1750 speed compared to the 2400 speed. CONS: I wish it came with more than two attachments for variety and for different size preferences. It’s disappointing that it doesn’t, since the first-generation model came with four attachments. I also wish it came with a charging brick as opposed to only the USB-C charging cable. Also, the ball attachments can be hard to remove at times, and it takes some getting used to figuring out how hard to pull them off; I was scared I was going to break it when I first attempted to remove it (mine came with the dampener on and I was attempting to switch to the standard attachment). Lastly, I would have liked to have 1200 and 1400 percussion speeds included on the device for an even gentler experience. If you’re really sensitive to the percussions per minute, you might find the Sense uncomfortable to use. CONCLUSION: If you work a desk job like I do, and if you’re like me and don’t have the best posture, you will want something quick and easy to relieve your pain in between your visits to the chiropractor. You don’t need to use the Therabody app to enjoy using this, and it does provide fast temporary relief. It is safe to use daily. I recommend the Sense for athletes, gym users, people with healed muscle injuries that still get pain, and for tension pain sufferers in their neck and back like me.

Good massager but not great value compared to the prime plus or other models in their line up. Also looks like they removed the biometrics and breathwork from gen 1. I would consider other options when spending this much on a massager.

I bought this for my wife to use, but she did not enjoy it it. It seems like it works well, but the cost was high and something inside the massager seems to have broken off and now rattles
