Aescape, the body intelligence company, launched the Brady Protocol on October 15, 2026, a 30-minute deep tissue session co-developed with seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady. It is available now on every Aescape table. The session works the full posterior chain, from the calves through the traps. It uses Aescape's Adaptive Body Therapy, which combines robotics and physical AI to map each body and adapt to it. Users set the pressure and can pause or lower it at any time. A team of licensed therapists and trainers developed the protocol over the past year, with Brady involved from concept through testing. Sessions start at $39, with pricing varying by location. Brady is also an investor in and strategic partner of the company.
