My Top Men's Health Tools
Jun 12, 2023
I love gadgets and gizmos just as much as the next guy and Father’s day is the perfect time to get your dad or father figure in your life some tools that will help him feel his best. To help you find that perfect gift I have put together my top favourite things that get tons of use and help me stay fit and feeling good.
1. Hand roller
This massage tool provides deep tissue massage for foot, calves, legs, hamstring, back, glutes, quads, neck, sciatica, back and shoulder. Easy to use every day as part of a quick mobility routine.
2. Everyman Jack Toiletries
Available locally at Parks Health Food Shop or online. What dad doesn't like to smell nice while avoiding chemicals and additives that aren't good for him!! And this stuff really works and is a favourite in our house.
3. Alpha Ball
A self-massage tool for those hard-to-reach areas that can be used on the floor or against the wall. Great for rounded shoulders (chest, shoulders & back) calves, glutes and the bottoms of feet. We sell these at the clinic but you can find them online too.
4. Hand Grip Strengthener
Excellent for improving hand dexterity, as well as relieving tight and cramped fingers. Great for maintaining strength and is gentle enough for mobility work. Can even be used as a fidget.
5. Book: The Wim Hof Method
One of my top 5 reads to date: Wim Hof has a message for each of us: “You can literally do the impossible. You can overcome disease, improve your mental health and physical performance, and even control your physiology so you can thrive in any stressful situation.” With The Wim Hof Method, this trailblazer of human potential shares a method that anyone can use―young or old, sick or healthy―to supercharge your capacity for strength, vitality, and happiness.
6. SafeSleeve Phone Case
This case contains FCC accredited lab tested shielding technology that can block over 99% of RF radiation and over 92% of EMF cell phone radiation for your phone. It also doubles as a wallet!
7. Defender Shield Blue Light Glasses
They might not win any fashion awards but they're one of the most effective blue light-blocking glasses for those who spend a lot of time on their computer or phone. The blue light from these devices can cause digital eye strain, premature eye-aging and interfere with sleep.
8. Squatty Potty
The Squatty Potty is a wonderful health aid for the entire family. The Squatty Potty helps you to eliminate faster and more completely by putting your body into a natural squatting position over your own toilet.
9. Xero - Speed Force Shoe
These are my go-to trainer shoes... they're light and as close-to-barefoot as they come! Comes in both men and women sizes.
10. Audible subscription
As a busy entrepreneur and dad of three, I don’t have that much time to sit and read as often as I’d like. Listening to audiobooks while I drive or work out is an easy way to keep myself entertained and learning.
11. Online Wellness Programs
Most people spend time thinking about their health goals but don't know how to get the momentum to get going. Show your support with a gift of education so they can hit their health goals and create lasting change in their life! I have created a very simple, step-by-step set of online programs that are easy to use, supportive, and inexpensive.
12. AquaOmega Fish Oil
Fish oil is a very important supplement and taking a good quality, high concentration form can truly impact your health. It can fight depression and anxiety, improve eye health, improve risk factors of heart disease, supports brain health, fights inflammation, + much much more! AquaOmega is our favourite brand and can be found locally at Parks Health Shop and online at some specialty health food stores.
13. Oura Ring
Both Cindy and I wear our Oura rings every day as it helps us understand one of the most important indicators of our health – sleep! The 3rd generation JUST came out with 24/7 heart rate monitoring, personalized health insights, sleep analysis and so much more. Save $50 when you order using the link above.
14. BioLight ReCharge+
Red light therapy is a tool I use every single day as it can stimulate our body's natural healing and regeneration processes. It's also used to improve mood and energy, normalize your circadian rhythm and improve your sleep quality. I have a handheld one at home (BioLight) and I love how portable it is. It's great for targeted areas! We also use the full-body, PlatinumLed BIOMAX series at the clinic. Use the link above to receive my discount
