The patented hi® System is more than a workout recovery tool. It's a nightly ritual, a way to take care of your body and the person next to you. Engineered for high performers. Designed for the people they love.


Most massage tools focus on muscles. hi® is the first system to combine percussion and vibration in one device, working with the nervous system, not just the muscles. Follow the complete practice, or learn only the techniques you need.

Dr. Massimo Fontana is a psychologist specializing in relationships, with over 42,000 followers on TikTok. He's currently creating programs with hi® on trauma, nervous system regulation, and emotional well-being. In this short video, he explains why hi® reaches what other recovery tools can't.

You lift, you run, you optimize. But somewhere between the cold plunge and the meeting that ran long, your nervous system never actually got the message that it's time to rest, and safe to repair.
Chronic sympathetic load is the bottleneck no percussion massager fixes. Sleep gets shallow. Soreness lingers. Connection with your partner becomes another thing you've been meaning to get to.
hi® was built for that exact problem, and for the relationship that has been quietly carrying the cost of it.
hi® is a new system of massage, the first to combine percussion and vibration with the acupressure and fascia release of Eastern healing and the lymphatic and neuromuscular work of Western therapy. It does what no single technique can: move the body out of fight-or-flight and into the parasympathetic state, the only state in which deep repair, hormonal balance, and real intimacy are possible. Use the complete system, or draw from just the techniques that address your specific needs.

Targets nerve regions near the vagus, sacral parasympathetic, and sacral plexus, shifting the body out of fight-or-flight and into the state where repair actually happens.

Targeted vibration on lymph junctions clears metabolic waste from training. Less inflammation. Faster recovery. The protocol therapists charge $200 per session for, done at home.

A unique amplitude resonates with connective tissue. It travels deeper than any percussion tool while feeling gentler than any vibration tool. The technical paradox other brands can't replicate.

Two heads. Seven intensity levels of percussion. Seven intensity levels of vibration. Six US and international patents. One device built to do what nothing else on the market can.
No battery to die mid-session. Wall-powered for sustained, professional-grade massage that lasts as long as you need it to.
Percussion releases deep tension. Targeted vibration activates lymphatic flow and stimulates nerve pathways that single-modality devices can't reach.
Ergonomic design that works as well in your hand as in your partner's. The same device. Two completely different experiences.
Workout recovery, men's performance, stress and the nervous system, lymphatic flow, couples connection, fertility, women's pelvic health, beauty, and clinical protocols. Whatever brought you here, there is a focused program for it, and every one of them comes with hi®.

Therapist-grade percussion and vibration for workout recovery, deep-tissue release, and full-body relaxation. The fitness foundation under every hi® program.

From post-workout legs to a long-day neck, from her hands to his back, the hi® System is the only recovery tool designed to work as well solo as it does together.



Most recovery brands sell you a gadget and wish you luck. hi® hands you a professional-grade massage system and a full library of guided training, taught by certified hi® instructors with live coaching and a private community. You are not stuck learning things you do not need. Take only the tracks that matter to you, and add more whenever you want.

Six US and international patents. Dual percussion and vibration, independently controlled, with seven speeds each. Corded power for sessions that never die mid-use. Built to do what no single-modality device can.
These are not pre-recorded videos. Every Saturday at 1:00 PM Eastern, Dr. Steve and Wendy McGough teach live on Zoom, demonstrating technique and answering whatever is on your mind. Drop in the weeks you can, skip the ones you cannot. Anonymous attendance is welcome, and many members use a pseudonym.
Most recovery tools are for a single function. hi® is six distinct technologies working together, protected by six US and international patents.
Every other recovery tool on the market gives you one or the other. hi® delivers both, independently controlled and simultaneously available. Percussion releases deep muscular tension. Targeted vibration activates lymphatic flow and stimulates nerve pathways percussion can't reach.
Most percussion guns hit hard and stop at the muscle surface. The hi® amplitude is specifically calibrated to resonate with connective tissue, meaning it travels further into the body while feeling less harsh on the skin. The result: deeper recovery with no bruising or "pounding" sensation.
The hi® vibe guide isn't a cosmetic detail. It's a purpose-built tool inside the tool. Designed to access lymph node clusters behind the knees, under the arms, and along the inner thigh, and to deliver pressure-point stimulation no percussion head can match. Also engineered for gentle facial toning of the trigeminal nerve.
Our six US and international patents cover both the physical device and the methods of using it. That's why hi® isn't replicated by overseas knockoffs. The techniques themselves are protected. When you buy hi®, you're buying access to a body of clinical work no other recovery brand has.
A 12-week guided training program. Four bonus weeks of advanced protocols. A private member community. Weekly live coaching with Dr. Steve and certified hi® instructors. You don't just buy a recovery device. You graduate from it with skills most massage therapists spend years acquiring.
Every other recovery brand stops at the muscle. hi® is the only system engineered for two, built around the 3-Step Couples Method refined over sixteen years and thousands of couples. Sports recovery during the day. Connection ritual at night. One device. One nightly practice. Two completely different outcomes.
That's why a $400 percussion massager ends up in the closet after week six. Recovery isn't a tool problem. It's a ritual problem. hi® is the only system built to solve both, for one person, or two.


"hi® is a fantastic system for relationships and overall health."

hi® is Lifespan Certified by the Lifespanning group, an independent program whose validation board of scientists and longevity experts reviews products for scientific grounding and ethical standards before the mark is granted. It is a third party vouching for the work, not a claim we made about ourselves.
On top of that independent review, the hi® device is built and tested to international safety and quality standards.
Unlike other massage tools, hi® wasn't created by a 'fitness' marketing company. It was built over sixteen years of clinical work, six US and international patents, and feedback from thousands of couples who's relationships were transformed.
On both the device and the methods. No other recovery system carries this level of IP protection.
Dr. Steve and Dr. Wendy McGough have been developing the hi® method since 2009.
The 3-Step Method has been refined through thousands of real couples across Sixteen years.
From sports recovery to lymphatic protocols to advanced couples work, your complete program.
Why your workouts, and your relationship are all running on the same battery, and a special letter couples need to start the conversation.

hi® was invented by Dr. Steve McGough, co-founder of Women and Couples Wellness and co-creator of the hi® system alongside his wife Wendy. His path to it was anything but typical: nutritional biochemistry at UNC-Chapel Hill, neuroscience research at Wake Forest School of Medicine, and a doctorate in human sexuality focused on clinical sexology and reproductive physiology.
For nearly ten years he researched and taught sexology at the IASHS in San Francisco, where he characterized the role of the sacral plexus in pelvic trauma and extended the Masters and Johnson Sensate Focus technique by mapping it to areas that activate the parasympathetic nervous system. That science is built into how hi® works.


hi® wasn't created as just another massager. It was created at the lowest point of our lives, after Wendy and I lost our first child. She had terrible tissue adhesions from the C-section surgery, and a grief that left her body holding tension no therapist or doctor could reach. I built hi® to help her recover.
What started as a single tool to help my wife became sixteen years of working with thousands of couples, and six patents on a system that does what nothing else on the market can.
Wendy used hi® daily for her health. The miracle is that while we were told we'd never have children again, we did. We have a wonderful daughter.
We still use hi® to relax. We've been happily married for over 25 years. As with hi® and our training, we live what we teach.

Six patents. Sixteen weeks of guided training. A private community. Weekly live coaching. And a ritual built for two.
