Theragun Prime - All-New 4th Generation Percussive Therapy Deep Tissue Muscle Treatment Massage Gun

Product Information

We love that Therabody didn’t overstate the above range, as some brands tend to do. We verified the actual percussions on each gear with a high-precision laser tachometer, and the Pro turned out very accurate to the specs (both the new model and predecessor). The Pro has a percussion range of 1750-2400rpm. When we tested the decibels, the Pro gave us 66dB at the highest speed, 8 decibels less than the 4 th generation Pro, so it’s quieter indeed. This is how we measure noise levels of the 5th generation Theragun PRO. It has a carrying case as well. Its battery isn’t removable, but it’s well juiced up (2550mAh) and can work for 4-6 hours, depending on how you use it.

Because they don’t mess about with what they do, their devices are consequently highly priced, and the Pro is the most expensiveof them all. So that’s what we’ll be looking at today. The G5 Pro means that it’s a fifth-generation device already. Their first generation Pro happened about six years ago. The Pro comes with 6 attachments, so one more than the Elite and the same as the G4. Theragun PRO comes with 6 attachments. The Theragun Prime 4th Generation model won our testers over for combining the best of all Theragun massage guns — at a more accessible price point. The Theragun Prime includes five built-in speeds and a customizable speed range between 1750-2400 ppms (just like its more expensive counterpart, the Theragun Pro). It features the signature triangle design that makes Theragun massage guns easy to hold and use on yourself without straining or contorting into weird positions, and its stall force (read: the amount of pressure you can apply to the head of the massage gun before the motor stalls) is 30 pounds, which our testers found to be plenty powerful for the average user. Plus, testers found it to be quieter than the other models, a major plus if you’re trying to use it while watching television or listening to a podcast.So what is it that makes Theragun Pro the king of the industry, or would you rather go with the competitors? We’ll cover this in our Theragun Pro review below. The adjustable arm will probably be a huge plus to chiropractors and therapists who may need more options as they massage different people. Following our experience with the Prime and Elite models, we noted that the Pro also starts at a manageable intensity of 1700rpm. Combined with gentle pressure on the skin and the right attachment (use the supersoft one if you’re not sure), the Pro can still give you a delicate massage. We were excited and a bit overwhelmed by the thrill of having this top-of-the-shelf device. Teenagers probably get the same feeling when they lay their hands on a new PS5. You’d think, as experts, such thrills wouldn’t carry us away, but we have to admit, we felt something!

Theragun Prime - Electric Handheld Massage Gun - Smart App

According to Saliu, Theragun dupes generally have similar features, speeds, and attachments as the real deal. However, the motor in non-Therabody models is much cheaper and usually loses power within a year, if not sooner. Therefore, you’re paying for longevity and quality when you invest in a Theragun. The Pro now comes with convenient USB charging, a solution often seen in mini massage gunsbut rarely in full-size devices. From now on, you can use a power bank to charge the 2500 mAh battery on the go – awesome. Theragun isn’t messing about here. They’ve introduced some major changes in the new 5th Gen Pro model. Always consult with your doctor before using a massage gun. In general, it’s best to avoid using a massage gun in these circumstances:This is often more than enough stall force to get the job done without slowing down percussions upon pressing to a body. There are other devices with more than 60lbs. stall force but we don’t think you’ll ever need more than that. The Pro, just like the Elite, has a force meter that tells you how much pressure you are exerting on your body. If the high cost of the Pro sounds like a deal breaker for you, but you still need a stable Theragun for your massage, the Elite is a good option to consider. It doesn’t sacrifice so much on power and it’s also quieter than the Pro if you like a peace of mind. The Achedaway Pro also offers more intensity with up to 2800 maximum percussions. That’s impressive, given its long amplitude. It also has 5 built-in speeds. Why We Like It: You can toggle between up to three preset recovery routines saved from the Therabody app to your device.

Stall force is the amount of pressure you can apply to the head of the massage gun before the motor stalls, or how powerful a massage gun is. A higher maximum no-stall force means you can apply more pressure before the motor shuts off.First, the new Pro no longer comes with two batteries. There is just one. That’s perhaps the biggest surprise, and it may feel like a downgrade for some users – think of busy chiros and physios. Also, the dual-battery setup was probably one of the things that somewhat justified the Pro’s hefty price.
