Therabody Unveils AI-Powered ‘Coach’ at CES 2025: A New Era of Personalized Wellness
Imagine having a personal wellness coach at your fingertips, ready to guide your recovery based on your unique needs. That’s precisely what Therabody, the renowned innovator in wellness technology, is promising with their latest offering: Coach. Announced at CES 2025, this AI-powered digital recovery platform is set to revolutionize how we approach personal wellness and recovery. Currently in beta, Coach is available through the Therabody app, bringing a new level of personalized guidance to users.
Now, you might be wondering, what makes Coach stand out? Well, unlike standard apps that offer generic routines, Coach uses advanced data analytics to tailor its recommendations specifically to you. By partnering with Garmin, Therabody harnesses the power of generative AI to craft recovery plans that evolve based on your personal metrics and goals.
- Real-time adaptation based on health metrics
- Integration with Garmin smartwatches and apps like Apple Health, Google Fit, and Strava
- Personalized reminders and recommendations
Here’s how it works: Coach gathers data from various sources — including Garmin devices and popular fitness apps — to paint a comprehensive picture of your activity levels and health status. It then uses this information to offer insightful suggestions tailored just for you. For instance, after completing a 5K run, Coach might advise you to begin leg recovery exercises to minimize soreness and enhance performance.
“It’s important to note that Therabody is not doing AI for AI’s sake,” said Therabody CMO, John Solomon. “As with all our products, we looked at how AI could solve a problem for our consumers. And over time, feeding it with the rich data from Garmin will allow us to really understand how recovery impacts performance at a scale that’s not been achievable until now.”

Initially, Coach will sync with Therabody’s flagship product, the Theragun, with plans to expand compatibility across more devices in the future.
This innovative approach highlights Therabody’s commitment to enhancing user experience through meaningful technology advancements. By integrating AI with robust data sources, they’re setting a new standard for personalized wellness solutions.
