Therabody reported that the company plans to “vigorously defend” itself against a patent infringement lawsuit recently filed by Hyperice.
As previously reported by SGB Media, Hyperice filed a lawsuit in federal court on January 2, 2024, against Therabody, the maker of the Theragun line of percussive massage guns, alleging infringement of its patented percussion massage technology.
In response, Therabody stated on Thursday, “Therabody has combined education, innovation, and well over a decade of pioneering within the tech wellness space to make wellness more accessible for everybody. With a portfolio of almost 600 granted patents globally and over 200 more patent applications pending, Therabody is the industry leader in percussive therapy innovation.
“Therabody respects the right of all companies to innovate but will resolutely protect its intellectual property and reputation.”
Therabody President and CEO Monty Sharma said, “We are prepared to fiercely defend our legacy of groundbreaking advancements and uphold our commitment to consistently raising the bar in the percussive therapy category. Our products are not only original and proprietary, but they profoundly impact lives worldwide.”
