Boston is the birthplace of so many things rooted in innovation and fitness, and the new kid on the block is PACT led by local engineer and entrepreneur Bridget Hunter-Jones.
Hunter-Jones is leading a team to make personalized recovery possible with a percussive muscle massager that pairs with a handheld scanner and app to let you know the level of intensity you need.
The Chief Invention Officer is someone Hunter-Jones knows well, has worked with since she was a kid, and has looked up to for her entire life: her dad, Ian Hunter.
