Therabody
Theragun PRO Gen 5 Percussive Therapy Massage Gun
₹49,900
16 mm of amplitude against the 10 mm of a Rs3,999 gun is a real difference in reach into muscle, and the rotating arm is the feature nothing cheaper copies well -- it is what lets you work your own upper back without dislocating a shoulder to do it.

Full details →Who the Theragun PRO Gen 5 Percussive Therapy Massage Gun is for
Buy it if: Physiotherapists, and athletes training hard enough to use it daily.
Avoid it if: Most people. A Rs3,999 gun with 10 mm amplitude does the job for ordinary recovery.
Who the Gaiam Zafu Organic Cotton Meditation Cushion Pillow is for
Buy it if: Anyone sitting to meditate who needs the seat height matched to their own flexibility.
Avoid it if: Anyone wanting a light, packable cushion -- buckwheat fill makes this heavy.
