DUO POWERDOT 2.0 for $ 349:: The PowerDot 2.0 muscle stimulator uses neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NME) and stimulation of the transcutaneous electrical nerve (tens) to alleviate muscle pain, spasms and even period cramps. You simply attach a reusable pad (or pads) to the sore muscle, and the device connects magnetically to the cushion. The support application gives you the power to control the intensity or to select a specific session adapted to your needs. The key is to start low and gradually increase the intensity according to your tolerance. During my first two days of severe period cramps, I found that the Powerdot offered temporary relief. If you are looking to treat several or more areas (such as your abdomen), I would recommend the duo version. My beef with this device is that it tends to disconnect mid-session.
Theraface Sleepmask for $ 99:: I tested a few sleep masks, and the Massasque Theraface is one of my favorites. It vibrates with three patterns designed to push your brain into a deeper rest. The profiled padding is plush and the adjustable strap maintains the mask in place and does not pull on my hair, even when I move at night. I find it hard to stay asleep, but when I wake up in the middle of the night, I just type the button to start a session, and it usually puts me. That said, the vibrations are almost too subtle, you barely feel them. You will notice that the mask is quite audible and not as soothing as a white noise machine, so if you are a light sleeper, it could be a dealbreaker.
Theraface Pro for $ 299:: The Theraface Pro includes six detachable magnetic heads for cleaning, microcourant, percussive massage and LED light therapy – light bulb for acne, red light and infrared for anti -aging. A wired writer tried the fancy facial device and said his skin was Softer and brighter, but it noted that no study proves that the microcour is an effective facial treatment. You do not need to spend $ 400 for a skin care gadget, but if you can afford it and like to pamper yourself – and you will not use it for a week and you forget in A drawer – It’s nice to have a bunch of tools in one.
Theragun pro 5th generation for $ 399:: Therabody still sells some older generations as well as renovated models directly. These are probably still great. You can find even older models for sale on Amazon. Although we haven’t tried them all, we think it comes back at prices. All that is more than the versions of 2019 or 2020 is not worth it unless the price is shocking. This pro came out in 2022, so it’s always a solid device for athletes. If you can find it for sale and you don’t need all the latest updates, you should be satisfied with it on the PRO Plus.
Theragun Prime 4th generation for $ 299:: We did not test the first, but on the basis of his specifications, he is in the middle of the Theragun pack. It is probably not the best suited to a professional athlete who constantly works with his body as much as possible, but for daily ailments and pain, it is more than sufficient.
