A little bit about Dr. Jason Wersland…
Dr. Jason Wersland is the Founder and Chief Wellness Officer of Therabody. After a traumatic motorcycle accident, Dr. Jason searched for a solution to relieve his debilitating pain. Realizing the only viable options to alleviate his pain were prescription medicine or surgery, he designed a makeshift device out of a power tool to ease his discomfort. That invention became the category-defining percussive therapy device, Theragun. Now rebranded as Therabody, the company offers an ecosystem of wellness solutions that help people perform better, recover faster, and manage pain as an alternative to traditional medicine.
Having started his wellness career as a chiropractor, Dr. Jason has dedicated his life to helping people live healthier, happier lives. His innovative approach integrates wellness principles, science, technology, and education -- Dr. Jason believes everybody should have access to cutting-edge therapies that enhance the body’s natural abilities to perform, recover, and achieve wellness. Dr. Jason is passionate about learning from other’s experiences, and is dedicated to constantly evolving the science, research, and education in the wellness industry.
