Our Take
The Theragun Relief is Theragun's entry-level percussion massager, designed for everyday muscle soreness and general recovery rather than deep clinical treatment. It sits at the more affordable end of the Theragun range, making it accessible to casual gym-goers and beginners who want a branded percussive device without committing to a professional-grade model.
Key Features
Single fixed speed of approximately 1750 percussions per minute
Amplitude of around 12mm — shallower than higher-tier Theragun models
Lightweight handheld design with an ergonomic single-handle grip
Comes with two attachment heads (standard ball and a dampener)
Powered by a built-in rechargeable battery via USB-C charging
Battery life rated at roughly 2 hours of continuous use per charge
Our Verdict
Ideal for someone new to percussion therapy who wants a reliable, no-fuss device for post-workout soreness and doesn't need advanced settings. If you train seriously or carry chronic muscle tightness, the limited speed range and shallow amplitude will frustrate you — step up to the Theragun Prime or consider rival brands offering more features per pound.
