Chiropractic Approved Gift Guide
Holidays are just around the corner (and doesn’t it feel that way every year when Autumn rolls around?). Whether you’re shopping for a loved one (or yourself!), here are some gift suggestions that are chiropractor-approved!
Massage gun – Wrapping, unwrapping. And repeat. Alongside the shoveling that comes with the winter season, a massage gun might be just the thing to tackle those muscle knots. We also recommend ones with an optional heat setting to really promote blood flow into those tight and stiff areas!
Supportive pillow: We know how tiring the holidays can be – you’re running around from shopping to social events. However, it’s important that you and your loved ones are taking care of yourselves by getting a good night’s rest!
Slippers – Falls are a common cause of injuries and fractures (not only when we are walking outdoors over ice). If you have hardwood in the home, having a good home slipper can help prevent common household falls (and dry feet!) provided that they have rubber grips at the bottom for traction, adequate counters or a backing, are a good fit for your foot size, and are super cozy!
Resistance bands – We love how versatile and multipurpose this gift is! It can be used for stretching, strengthening or stability – all important aspects of your overall physical health. Have you also considered its uses in creating a bow over your boxed gifts or hanging ornaments on your tree?
Jenga – A great stocking stuffer for any age group and a perfect way to spend the time with your family and friends after your holiday meal. Board games are a great way to engage in some friendly competition while also improving your fine motor skills and dexterity!
Fitness classes – Does your close friend or loved one have their sights set on a new activity like yoga, kickboxing, rock climbing, or something else? Consider purchasing a trial for them to experience the activity. You may be the one they thank, years down the road, for getting them started.
Remember to also take care of yourself during this busy holiday season. Be sure to carve out time to visit your chiropractor and keep moving pain-free through 2023.
