Looking for a few gift ideas that you can give your loved ones—or maybe even treat yourself to this year?
We’ve compiled 14 gift ideas that can help inspire you as you look to support your loved one’s healthy habits. Ask us for more information on any of the gift ideas we've compiled.
1. Give a gift that keeps on giving! Your loved ones will thank you after they use Biofreeze or any sore muscle or joints. Ask Dr. Bradford for more information on how Biofreeze is best used.
2. Cataplex D is a supplement that supports bone health, mineral absorption, and immune system function. Another supplement is Tuna Omega-3 oil, which provides you with omega-3 fatty acids. Ask Dr. Bradford for more information on the supplements that are right for you.
3. Know a foodie who seems to have every kind of kitchen tool or appliance? Get him or her a unique food storage saver in tomato and grapefruit designs. These are not only unique, but they're useful storage solutions that extend the shelf-life of your herbs, fruits and vegetables.
4. Who says healthy eating can’t also be convenient? Give a Quest Nutrition QuestBar in pumpkin pie (a limited time flavor) or in chocolate chip cookie dough for an on-the-go snack.
5. This year, give someone a self massage tool. This massage tool was designed to get to hard-to-reach aches and pains, ideal for when you can’t get in for a massage.
6. Encourage hydration by giving that special someone a water bottle this year. Staying hydrated alone can help you lose weight, increase your energy and meet that upcoming New Year’s resolution faster.
7. Have someone who enjoys reading—or just someone ready to become their best self? Consider Search Inside Yourself: The Unexpected Path to Achieving Success, Happiness (and World Peace) by authors Daniel Goleman and Chade-Meng Tan. In the book, Tab, who was one of Google’s earliest engineers, uncovers his method for enhancing emotional intelligence throughout your life, and how that can be applied to health, happiness and even productivity.
8. You may have already heard Dr. Bradford talk about using Thera-Bands tubes (or bands), which help you workout just about anywhere. The tubes are very versatile and offer multiple levels of resistance. The tubes are great to use no matter if you’re working on exercises for your rotator cuff, neck, arms, back, leg or hips, as recommended by Dr. Bradford.
9. Know someone who loves to cook, or maybe someone who is looking to incorporate healthier, homemade food into their lifestyle? A food processor is a great gift idea to promote healthier food choices.
10. The 4-Hour Body, written by Tim Ferris, is a book that details Ferris’ exploration with the human body in order to achieve what many deem impossible. Whether it’s fat loss, running a marathon, or performing better in another area of your life, Ferris’ book helps you find results that can help you achieve your biggest goals.
11. There are quite a few to choose from, but a blow-up exercise ball on wheels can be used as a chair in a loved one’s office, or even at their home. You can also use an exercise ball for an effective exercise routine as well as to stretch your spine.
12. If you know a CrossFit athlete or weightlifter, they might already have one of these! Consider getting someone you know a foam roller, used to release muscle tightness and/or trigger points. Soon your friends may wonder what they did before you gave them one of these.
13. Know someone who considers themselves a Yogi or Yogini? Here’s an idea: a portable yoga mat that lets you practice yoga from anywhere. Available in multiple colors, you can give that special someone a yoga mat in their favorite color.
14. Last but not least (and probably everyone’s favorite!): get almost anyone in your life a Cincinnati Rehabilitation Center massage gift certificate. Now through December 31, 2015, we’re offering 60-minute massage gift certificates for only $45. Give us a call today at 513.772.9065 to get your gift cards.
