Health Toys For Gearheads


If you are a gadget and gizmo freak, I’ve got a small bonanza for you today.

I came across a cool widget site called StrangeNewProducts.com, and while it’s no MedGadget, they do seem to showcase some interesting health toys from time to time. I’ll share three from their front page.

Hand Held Bug Bite Relief - A company called MorePower2U is marketing a new device called “Therapik“, claming to provide temporary relief from bug bite irritation by the use of heat.

Wrist Water Bottle - A company called HydroSport is marketing a new water bottle that fits on your wrist.
Described as a “Wrist Water Bottle”, each unit holds 5.5oz of water or sports drink, for a total of 11oz when you have one on each wrist. When fully loaded, the unique bottle weighs one-half pound, providing you with some additional exercise.

Wearable Wrist Rests - A company out in Arizona is now selling wrist rests that you wear on your wrists. Called, “Wristease“, they have a thick piece of padding on the underside that acts like a wrist rest. This way you can bounce back-n-forth to various computer workstations without having to carry your wrist rest with you (a problem that many of us have).
