The Perfect Gift!

I know that you have seen our posts talking about how to use our IPROMassagers and the benefits from doing so, but I witnessed something recently that shocked me, and it was directly related to the IPRO! Please indulge my story if for no other reason than to maybe get a laugh at my fixation of trying to make people around me happy. 

Father’s day was right around the corner and my husband and I were racking our brains to figure out what to get dad... He has all the sports hats, shirts, flags, pennants, cups, footballs... etc.! Just once we (ok maybe just I) would like to get the WOW gift. One that he raves about! So often we get him a gift that we know he doesn’t really need, but he will pretend to be stoked only to never see the gift again! (Where do all of those gifts go?)

 I explained to my husband that I thought that his dad would be a perfect candidate to try the IPRO Massager as he always issues with his back, knees, elbows, neck - you name it, it aches! My idea was met with some criticism, and I was told that his dad had one of those years ago and he didn’t like it because he didn’t get any relief from it and would end up just throwing the thing away. I, always the optimist, didn’t let that phase me and got his dad one anyway! My husband, ever so sweetly, reminded me not to get my hopes up because his dad just isn’t really excitable and my dream of wowing him will most likely be met with disappointment. (In so many words) 

Still determined…I shared the news with my husband’s sister thinking she would be able to give me that reassuring nudge I was looking for that she at least thought that he would use it – No such luck! She thought that I should take it back and save the money because her dad would never use it… UGH :(

Still not one to be defeated, I put the IPRO massager in the gift bag and we headed over to the parents’ house ever ready to hear I told you so… you never listen…he’s my dad, I know what he likes!! When present time came I started to get hesitant and contemplated just keeping it and giving him money!! LOL Here it is the moment of truth – he is opening it… He was SO excited! (Me too) He had said that he was online recently looking for one and being that he is somewhat new to the internet world, found himself lost in a sea of information about these devices.

I felt proud that I finally succeeded in getting the WOW gift and let him know that I would show him how to use it and that he could call me anytime if he had any questions.  We left that night and I expected to get a couple of calls the next day – but nothing. I was certain that he must not have tried it yet and that soon, I would have to explain – nothing!! OMG – did I really get a dud, was he appeasing me because my husband told him to act excited? Did his daughter pull him aside to tell him that I might be crushed if he doesn’t love it, so put on a good show?  Man, it’s tough to be an in-law!!

A week had passed, I hadn’t heard anything from dad, and I was over it! I will try again next year and next time, I will succeed… maybe a fish tank like the one Ray Barone gave his dad… I have a whole year to put that plan into action :)

 

We visited this weekend and I decided I wouldn’t even bring up IPROMassager, or the fact that if he didn’t like it, he could give it back to me and I could find someone who would  (no, it is not my habit to take gifts back and try to re-gift them but hey – this was a great gift! Somebody should enjoy it!!) Surprise – I didn’t have to! When we came in, he was using it!! He loves it!! It is so easy to use he said!! He has been using it every day he told me!! 

Well, mission accomplished - It took me 17 years, but I finally did it! I can’t lie, it felt good to give someone relief from constant pain. To see that he seemed lighter on his feet, ready for whatever we wanted to do, to see him HAPPY – was great. 

I looked at my husband and did what any good wife would do… whispered I told you so!

Summer Fun

Now that we are all coming out of our hibernation shell and getting back to the things we love to do in the great outdoors, many of us are realizing that we aren’t as young and resilient as we used to be! Isn’t growing old grand? As the weather heats up and you hit the pavement, remember your body doesn’t heal as quickly as when you were younger!  Many of us are so excited to catch a little bit of sun on our walk or ride that we forget to ease into the activities that we haven’t done during the cold of winter.  Here are some tips to remember when hitting the trails or beginning a workout regimen now that the weather is playing nice.

1. Ease into it. Just because you ran 5 miles last year, doesn’t mean that your body is ready to go all the way right out the gate.
    
2. Stretch! Your body needs a good stretching
   
3. Remember to drink lots of water. With all the sweating you will now be doing, your body will need to remain hydrated
4.  Don’t forget to rest. If you start to feel tired, it’s OK to take a break. Don’t push your body too hard.
5. Some movement is better than none. Even if you just go for a walk around the block a few times, at least you are moving your body, getting the blood circulating, and getting your joints back in action.
6. Don’t forget your pets. Your pets need exercise as well, but remember not to push them too hard either

Even while taking precautions, your body can still feel the strain of the added pressure on joints and muscles being used that haven’t in a while. Treat those aches and pains not with pain medicine, but the natural way… the IPRO Massager!

IPRO Massager, is an Electronic Pulse Massager that sends electronic pulses to your muscles through the massage pads, and has different modes. By contracting and relaxing your muscles, I PRO Massager relieves pain and creates a massage sensation. The IPRO Massager releases the stress in minutes: It sends electronic pulses to target areas such as shoulders, back, knees, arms, legs or feet - all by placing the small pads on the body part. 

You can use the I PRO Massager on almost every muscle on your body. The technology helps circulate blood and passively exercises muscles. Best results are achieved when you apply the pads to, or next to a painful area or muscle and let I PRO Massager do the work.  More, the device allows you to control the different modes and strength, so you can get your personal desired levels. It's easy to operate and because of its small size, it's portable and you can take it with you wherever you go. You can even let it work your muscles while you work, walk, study or watch TV - it does the work for you with no effort at all.

So get out there and enjoy the nicer weather, work your body to stay in shape, and use the IPRO Massager instead of pain relievers to bounce your body back into tip top shape!
