Product Information

The Theragun Sense focuses on simultaneous massage and breathwork with the aid of a Bluetooth-linked app. However, it advertises a Whisper-Quiet Motor that is only really evident on the lowest setting—it gets pretty loud once you go up in speed. Supervising editor Ingrid Skjong is a certified personal trainer ( The National Academy of Sports Medicine) and previously covered fitness at Wirecutter. But many people find a massage gun to be useful for post-workout recovery or after a long day on the job.

Another thing we like is that even though it’s shorter, you can still reach and massage your lower back. Its grippy handle—angled at about 15 degrees—made reaching for our upper back or calves a little easier. While some of the best massage guns make it easy to reach tricky areas such as your lower back and shoulders, others are more difficult to handle, and we even find it difficult to cycle through the speed settings on some of the worst ones.The power button, which also adjusts the speed, sits on top of the Ekrin B37; as a result, it isn’t quite as conveniently located. It also doesn’t vibrate down to the handle, although targeting hard-to-reach crevices on the body proved a bit difficult. Whether you're trying to reduce DOMS or just looking for a quick warm-up tool, we can help you learn how to use a massage gun, and pick the right one to fit your exercise routine.

Everyone has different preferences and thresholds for power and speed, but some of the massage guns we test are so lacking that our testers feel they lack effectiveness, even on the highest settings.Percussion therapy reaches deeper into your muscles than vibration therapy, which provides longer and lasting acting effects. The head attachments come in varying sizes and shapes to suit different needs and target specific muscles. For large and bulky items, many of our courier partners will bring the item to your premises on upper floors if there is a working lift. The four, hard-plastic attachments felt cheap—the flat version had a small but sharp irregularity—and its overall iffy quality knocked it out of contention. Whether it’s finding great products or discovering helpful advice, we’ll help you get it right (the first time).

In our tests, its overall effect was slightly more vibratory in comparison with that of our other picks, and it delivered a less-powerful massage than other devices we tried. The Therabody Theragun Elite is a souped-up, more-expensive version of one of our picks, the Therabody Theragun Prime. If you believe that your copyright has been misused, please provide us with a message stating your position and we will endeavor to correct any misuse immediately. Those upgrades might be valuable to some people, but we found the overall experience of the Elite and the Prime to be similar, and we concluded that most people would be satisfied with the Prime. Like the Theragun Prime, the Theragun Mini is Bluetooth enabled and connects to the Therabody app, with access to guided programs.

Why we like it: The Opove M3 Pro Massage Gun is an updated version of the Opove M3 Pro Max, a previous pick that we liked, but, like the newer M3 Pro, found to be big and bulky.
