Using The Theragun PRO Plus Device’s Biometric Sensor

Access Routines with Biometric Sensor in the Therabody App
Use the Therabody app to access a catalog of breathing routines that utilize a biometric sensor to measure and display your heart rate. Routines that connect to the biometric sensor are labeled with the heart rate icon.
To use the device’s biometric sensor, hold the device in the ”double-grip” position while keeping the tip of your pointer (index) finger placed on the biometric sensor. Cover the entire sensor with the tip of your finger.

Do not squeeze or firmly press the biometric sensor, as this may lead to inaccurate readings. Support the device’s weight with your free hand or rest the device against your body to reduce pressure on the biometric sensor.

Preset Guided Breathing Routine
The Theragun PRO Plus device provides a preset science-backed guided breathing routine to help you relax.
On the main menu, press the down button to toggle through preset options, landing on the Breathing preset.
Hold the device in the ”double-grip” position while keeping the tip of your pointer (index) finger placed on the biometric sensor. The device will vibrate at a specific rate to guide you through a calming inhaling and exhaling routine.
During this routine, the Theragun PRO Plus device measures your heart rate. Your lowest (minimum) heart rate will be displayed following the treatment as feedback on your level of relaxation during the treatment. The goal is to lower your heart rate.

Scanning Your Heart Rate and Displaying on Device
Determine your current heart rate with the tap of your finger. Turn the device on and double tap the biometric sensor with one finger. Find a comfortable position where the tip of your pointer (index) finger completely covers the biometric sensor. Minimize  movement until your current heart rate is displayed on the screen—approximately 15-30 seconds. Minimize movement and do not squeeze or firmly press the biometric sensor, as this may lead to inaccurate readings.
Your biometric information will not be accessible by or otherwise used by Therabody or its affiliates unless you expressly opt-in to share this data with us via the Therabody App, and will only be used in accordance with Therabody’s Privacy Policy.

Using the Attachments

The Theragun PRO Plus device has eight high-quality attachments designed for a more personalized treatment. The five percussive attachments, the Dampener, Standard Ball, Thumb, Micro-point, and Wedge, and the Vibration, Heat, and Cold attachments are comfortable and hygienic without absorbing sweat, lotion, or oils.
Cold attachment sold separately

Dampener – For tender or sensitive areas and overall use.
Use the Dampener attachment for a firm yet softer, soothing full-body massage. The Dampener attachment is specifically designed for general use and a low- impact treatment around tender, sensitive or bony areas. Do not directly contact bones (i.e., spine, knee  cap) using this device. Its wide base maximizes surface area for greater, more efficient contact with the body.

Standard Ball – For large and small muscle groups
Use the Standard Ball attachment for a full-body massage. The Standard Ball attachment is specifically designed for overall use on both large and small muscle groups. With a smaller shape and higher impact level than the Dampener, it is a firmer option for  overall use and is your go-to attachment for tension.

Thumb – For trigger points and the lower back.
Relieve pain with the high pressure point Thumb attachment.
Specifically designed to mimic a human thumb, use this attachment for point therapy on the lower back. Use the Thumb anywhere you may have otherwise used your thumb for pain relief.

Vibration – For joints and and boney areas
Relieve joint pain and treat sensitive areas. Use the Vibration attachment to target joint pain and treat boney areas. The vibration attachment increases circulation to treat sensitive areas.

Heat – For muscles
Loosen up stiff muscles and accelerate recovery. Use the Heat attachment to loosen up stiff muscles before a workout, or after a workout to accelerate muscle recovery.

Cold (Sold separately) – For joints and muscles
Reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling. Use the Cold attachment to relieve swelling and reduce inflammation.

Micro-point – For increased stimulation.
Increase circulation with the Micro-point attachment. The Micro- point attachment delivers a highly targeted treatment and increases stimulation and circulation to each treatment area.

Wedge – For shoulder blades and IT bands.
Warm up muscles and improve flexibility with the Wedge attachment. Uniquely designed for use on shoulder blades and IT bands, the Wedge attachment is used for “scraping” and “flushing” motions, mirroring techniques commonly used in sports massages.
