Theraguns and Best Tools for Smart Discovery (2026)

Honorable Mentions

TheraFace Mask for $650: The TheraFace Mask is a wireless, hands-free light therapy device that uses three wavelengths (red, infrared, and blue) to address different skin care needs. To differentiate itself from its competitors, the TheraFace Mask includes a built-in vibration therapy mode that massages pressure points around the eyes, brow line, and skin for added pressure relief. It comes with removable eye shields and a smooth display, making it easy to keep in your nightstand.

JetBoots Prime for $550: Compared to JetBoots Pro Plus, JetBoots Prime keeps it simple: You get four pressure levels (25, 50, 75, and 100 mmHg) and three durations (20, 40, or 60 minutes), all adjustable throughout your session with the built-in control panel. They are cordless with a 180-minute battery life and can be used while charging. In addition, they fold down into the included bag, making them portable and comfortable to carry.

$180 WaveRoller: Foam rollers are great for improving range of motion, increasing blood flow, and reducing muscle tension. You can buy a decent foam roller for a lot less money, but the WaveRoller offers integration with the Therabody app for a personalized experience and five vibration frequencies. Designed for full-body use, it works great for warming up and recovering after exercise.

TheraFace Pro for $420: The TheraFace Pro includes six removable magnetic heads for cleansing, microcurrent, percussive massage, and LED light therapy—blue light for acne, red light, and infrared for antiaging. Reviewer Haley Sprankle tested the facial device and said her skin it was it is soft and bright, but he also noted that there are no clinical studies proving that microcurrent is an effective facial treatment.

Theragun Mini (third generation) for $220: I recommend the Mini if ​​you’re new to percussive therapy or need something to pack for travel. The small and light Theragun, with three attachments (regular ball, dampener, and thumb) and a soft zip case that fits in a purse, gym bag, or backpack.

Theragun Sense for $300: The Theragun Sense is smaller (and lighter) than the Pro Plus, and it’s surprisingly quiet. Some settings are almost silent, allowing for a discreet recovery session at any time of day without worrying about disturbing your housemates. It has the same LCD screen and breathability features as the Pro Plus, too. The main difference here is that it comes with fewer attachments, but four heads are still more than enough for a working person.

Theragun Pro (5th generation) for $530: Therabody still sells several older generations and directly refurbished models. You can find older models for sale on Amazon. While we haven’t tried them all, we think they come down to value. Anything older than a 2019 or 2020 release may not qualify unless the price is shockingly low. This Pro came out in 2022, so it’s still a decent deep tissue massager. If you can find it on sale and you don’t need all the latest updates, you should be happy with the Pro Plus.
