5 Healthy Gadgets And Gift Ideas That Improve Lives

If you’re trying to live a healthier lifestyle — whether it’s getting a good night’s sleep or becoming leaner — there are a number of healthy gadgets that can help make the journey toward a more balanced life easier and a lot more fun.

Here are my top tech picks to help you feel healthy this season. I have personally bought and tried each product.

Let me know in the comments when you find something fun yourself!

1. Aculief – Natural migraine and tension relief

This is actually something my mother uses. She has suffered from chronic migraines for her entire adult life. Finally, her doctor recommended that she should stop taking so much medication for her headaches. She has used several tablets a day for years and found out it could damage her liver.

I bought it for her as I am the biggest fan of getting healthier without chemicals. She was obviously sceptical that this product would work for her level of pain but gave it a try to see what would happen. Now she is very impressed with how much relief it provides for the pain and headaches​.

I have used it several times now and have been very happy with the results each time (my mother recommends)

HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Aculief tool is very small and easy to slip into a purse or other bag. It’s relatively discrete, so it feels appropriate to wear even in an office environment. It works by applying pressure to the LI4 pressure point (located on your hand between the thumb and forefinger), which has been used for thousands of years to treat headaches and provide tension relief.

HOW MUCH IS IT?
The price starts at $15 so it is cheap enough for anyone who needs relief from pain. If you suffer from chronic pain and headaches, you should definitely give Aculief a try.

2. Dodow – First Aid For Poor Sleepers

My husband suffers from insomnia related to anxiety. You know the kind–where you lay in bed and things that happened 10 years ago haunt you into being wide awake. I am a poor sleeper too – I often go to bed at 11 PM and at 2:30 I am still trying to get to sleep.

Once after over a week of both of us sleeping horribly, I was desperate. I’ll admit this Dodow device with a funny name was somewhat of an impulse buy. I saw it on a Facebook video and decided I was so sleep-deprived, it was worth a try because there was a free return and we were exhausted. After nearly a month of using it nightly, I have to admit that I am quite shocked at how well it works.

We don’t use it nightly, just on nights we consider ourselves to be at risk for being wide awake all night, and each night we’ve used it, we’ve slept like absolute babies.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Dodow is a sound and light system that teaches you how to fall asleep naturally, without taking any medicine. It is battery operated and you can take it everywhere. it is small. The company says that more than 500,000 people are already falling asleep with Dodow.

HOW MUCH IS IT?
The best thing I’ve ever purchased. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a simple approach for a sound sleep. The price starts at $42 when you buy 2. Click here to find out more about Dodow.

3. Neck Hammock – Neck pain is gone!

Wow! Let me start off by saying this product has helped me find my inner peace. Before using the neck hammock I was unpleasant to be around at work and at home, I was just too wound up. Not anymore! 15 minutes a day has made me happier, more productive, and more confident in my day to day life.

Easy to use and set up. Super quick shipping and great customer support team who are easy to work with.

I look forward to coming home and putting it to use after a long day of work in the office or in the car. Have dealt with some neck tension over the years and have struggled to find away to resolve it. This has no doubt been the best solution to cross my path yet. Definitely would recommend.

I use mine on my bedroom doorknob and lay my yoga mat down in front of the door. I usually decompress my neck and lengthen my neck muscles for about 10 minutes. This device has helped immensely.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Neck Hammock is a patented cervical traction assistant that works by gently pulling the head away from the neck to stretch and decompress the spinal cord, which increases blood flow, oxygenates the surrounding muscles, decreases pain, and increases the mobility of the neck and shoulders.

HOW MUCH IS IT?
Thanks to the neck hammock my life can begin now 🙂 It actually costs mere 50 bucks. Buy the original Neck Hammock here.

4. Fittrack – A great way to start your weight loss plans

I’m in love with this scale. It not only measures your weight, but it also has 17 different measurements. My favourites are the metabolic age and muscle mass. All the information is transmitted to an app on your phone, it truly is amazing!

There is an app that pairs with it via Bluetooth and that works well. It can sync to multiple phones and in the app, you can add several users too. I store my and my wife’s weights on my phone. It is glass and it seems sturdy enough.

I didn’t realize how useful a good scale was for keeping track of your weight loss. I understand that it is not as accurate as a lipid profile at your doctors but this is a quick and easy way to make sure I am losing weight.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
When you stand on a FitTrack monitor, a very low, safe electrical signal is sent from four metal electrodes through your feet to your legs and abdomen. The electrical signal passes quickly through water that is present in hydrated muscle tissue but meets resistance when it hits fat tissue. This resistance, known as impedance, is measured and input into scientifically validated FitTrack equations to calculate body composition measurements. Body composition measurements are provided in under 20 seconds.

HOW MUCH IS IT?
This scale is great for those who are interested in more than just weight. The information it gives is useful to understand our body. It also is a great gift idea for anyone who is serious about their health. The price starts at $63, a great deal considering the features and other similar products. Click here to order yours.

 5. BOOBUDDY – Breast support band

Let me tell you – I’m a 30F and have always had difficulty finding good support for my workouts.  Honestly, I was getting really tired of having to squeeze into two, sometimes 3 bras just to keep the girls in place.

Now, I just strap on my boobuddy and even with a bra with limited support, they DO. NOT. MOVE. It’s a freaking miracle product. I never thought my big ol’ boobs could be strapped down and be jiggleless during a work out routine. I am extremely satisfied with this product. So satisfied that I’m considering wearing it while on bumpy car rides. I’m 100% sure it would do its job of defying physics. I’d only take one star off because it (sometimes, not all the time) pinches the side under the armpit. The pros definitely outweigh the cons.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
It has velcro, so you can adjust it to whatever size is most comfortable for you. I now recommend this to every single woman I know. It was worth every single penny!  I bought a small and it’s perfect. I can run, so burpees and yoga. Nothing spills out. I can honestly do anything, I don’t have to worry about my boobs any more.

This band also helps to mitigate breast sag. While it is inevitable as you age due to loss of collagen in the tissue, regular use of Boobuddy prevents stretching the ligaments as your breasts move up and down.

It is consistently comfortable, easy to put on/ take off, and it washes up without any trouble. I put it in a mesh laundry bag and air dry it. Easy!

HOW MUCH IS IT?
What you’ll LOVE most about the Booband is how it’s priced to fit any budget. When you consider the breast pain you might experience while you work out, or how your breasts might keep you from really playing all out in the activities you want to do – you’ll realize that getting a Boobuddy for as low as just 20 bucks is – just nothing.
