Therabody reviews: which Therabody products are worth buying?

Thinking about buying Therabody? Buyzello covers 3 Therabody products in massage guns, each with an independent Buy, Consider or Skip verdict. Our highest-rated Therabody pick is the Therabody Theragun Prime, which typically sells for $249–$299 in the US.

The Therabody Theragun Prime is best for most people. Its key feature is deep percussion and smart app routines, and it usually costs $249–$299. Buy it if you want strong percussion massage for sore legs, back and shoulders with guided app routines. Skip it if you want something small enough for a gym bag pocket. Our verdict: Buy, with a research score of 8.8 out of 10.

The Theragun Mini is best for travel. Its key feature is pocket-size Theragun, and it usually costs $179–$199. Buy it if you want a small massage gun for travel or the gym bag. Skip it if you need deep massage for large muscles. Our verdict: Buy, with a research score of 8.2 out of 10.

The Therabody Theragun PRO Plus is best for recovery enthusiasts. Its key feature is percussion plus heat, cold and light therapy, and it usually costs $499–$599. Buy it if you want heat, cold, vibration and light therapy in one device and money is no object. Skip it if you mainly want percussion; the Theragun Prime does that for about half the price. Our verdict: Skip, with a research score of 6.6 out of 10.

How does Therabody compare with rivals? In massage guns, the main alternatives include the Hypervolt 2 (quiet power, $179–$229) and the RENPHO Active Massage Gun (budget, $49–$79). Our best massage guns list ranks them side by side so you can see where Therabody wins and where it does not.

When you buy Therabody online, check that the listing is sold by the retailer itself or by Therabody's official store so the manufacturer warranty applies. Register the product with Therabody after it arrives, keep the order confirmation, and note the return window in case it is not the right fit.

Amplitude (stroke depth) of 12 to 16 mm reaches deeper muscles. Noise matters if you use it at home in the evening. Grip and weight decide whether you can reach your own back.

They can ease muscle soreness and stiffness for many people. They do not replace medical treatment for injuries. About one to two minutes per muscle group. Avoid bones, joints and the neck's front.

Theragun and Hypervolt prices drop on Prime Day and Black Friday. Buy from official stores, because knockoffs are common.
