As much as we’re committed to continuous innovation, we understand that innovations only have an impact if people can experience the value they bring. It was important to us that our next line of devices be connected to your life in a more meaningful way, which is why each of our 4th generation percussive therapy devices are Bluetooth enabled and seamlessly integrate with our updated, fully-personalized app experience. Each guided wellness routine we offer was personally conceived of and created by Dr. Jason, and while he can only be in one place at one time, the app provides each person that uses it with a “private appointment” with him when it’s most convenient for you..
We want you to get the most out of your device, so we made percussive therapy smarter. Our app learns from you and delivers guided wellness routines uniquely suited to your behaviors and preferences. Our app also proactively suggests guided wellness routines that help reduce discomfort, stress, and tension. Our goal is to show you all the ways Smart Percussive Therapy can benefit you in your everyday life and become your go-to resource for whole-body wellness.
Through our integration with Apple HealthKit, Google Fit, and Samsung Health, we’ll suggest guided wellness routines to help you discover new and surprising ways to care for your body. The personalization doesn’t end with the app. Our PRO and Elite devices each can store up to three presets locally. Each preset is a unique combination of speed, time, and force depending on the guided wellness routine it stems from. That means that each person’s device is specific to them and can be tailored to their particular needs.
The health and activity data collected on your Therabody app stays there, period. At Therabody, we understand your health and activity data is yours and yours alone. We don’t collect, sell, or share any of your data, ever. In fact, feel free to test this by activating Airplane Mode on your phone. You’ll see that the app continues to work independently of any signal, as all of your data is stored locally on your device.
