1. A vibration therapy device, comprising:
a housing that includes a handle portion and a head portion;
an electrical source;
a motor positioned in the housing;
a switch for activating the motor;
a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor, wherein the push rod assembly comprises:
a reciprocating shaft having a distal most end and an opening defined at the distal most end; and
an attachment member coupled to the distal most end of the reciprocating shaft, the attachment member comprising a shaft extending into the opening of the reciprocating shaft and a magnet seat having a first magnet received therein,
wherein the reciprocating shaft is configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, such that the attachment member has a linear velocity between 0.06 m/s and 0.5 m/s; and
a reciprocating attachment removably received on the attachment member, wherein the reciprocating attachment includes a second magnet that is magnetically attracted to the first magnet to secure the reciprocating attachment on the attachment member; and
a flexible sleeve that includes a proximal end and a distal most end,
wherein the flexible sleeve at least partially surrounds the reciprocating shaft, and
wherein the distal most end of the flexible sleeve is secured to the attachment member and the proximal end of the flexible sleeve is secured to the housing.
