Hyperice, a wellness brand, recently filed a lawsuit against Therabody, their competitor. The lawsuit was filed in Delaware federal court, as Hyperice alleges that a range of Therabody’s massage devices infringes a patent they hold in relation to percussion massage technology. Notably, this patent was obtained by Hyperice just a day prior to filing the lawsuit.
The patent in question specifically pertains to technology involved in percussion massage devices, an area in which both Hyperice and Therabody actively compete. By filing this lawsuit, Hyperice seeks to defend the rights granted to them via this patent against threats of infringement.
For additional specific details on this lawsuit, including the patent number, the exact devices alleged to infringe upon the patent, and any responses from Therabody, please refer to the report by Kelly Lienhard on Law360.
