Our Take
The Theragun Pro 5th Generation is Therabody's flagship percussive massage device, aimed at serious athletes, physios, and committed gym-goers who want professional-grade muscle recovery at home. It sits firmly at the premium end of the market, competing with high-end rivals from Hypervolt and Ekrin, and is noticeably more expensive than mid-range alternatives.
Key Features
Triangular multi-grip handle with five adjustable arm positions for reaching awkward areas like the upper back
Bluetooth connectivity pairs with the Therabody app, which offers guided routines and customisable speed settings
Five built-in speed settings ranging from approximately 1,750 to 2,400 percussions per minute
16mm amplitude (depth of stroke) — deeper than most consumer-grade devices
Comes with six interchangeable attachments including a dampener, thumb, cone, and large ball head
Two swappable rechargeable batteries, each providing around 150 minutes of use
Our Verdict
Worth the investment for physios, personal trainers, or dedicated athletes who'll use it daily and benefit from the rotating arm and dual batteries. Casual gym-goers who need occasional post-workout relief should seriously consider a mid-range device at half the price — the core percussion technology is far less differentiated than the premium suggests.
