Protect yourself and your animals against tick-borne illness with the TickEase tick remover

NEWS – Well, that title just said it all, didn’t it?  The TickEase Tick Removal Tool was created by Dan Wolff, also known as Tick Man Dan.  He’s a tick-prevention specialist who has been bitten over 200 times and who has been educating people about tick removal and prevention for more than 20 years.  He’s now applied his expertise to designing a tick-removal tool that complies with the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s tick-removal guidelines, which advocate using a fine-tipped tool.

The TickEase tool is made of stainless steel.  One end has a thin, sharp-tipped set of tweezers for removing small ticks.

The other end is a slotted scoop for removing larger, engorged ticks.  You’ll also receive a magnifier and tick-testing instructions with the tool.

The TickEase Tick Removal Tool is $9.99 from The Grommet.

PainCakes stick to what ails you

NEWS – Let’s face it no matter your age we all suffer from aches and pains. There’s any number of devices out today that promise relief. But nothing soothes aching muscles and joints like a good old fashion cold compress. The problem is most of them don’t like to stay where you put them. PainCakes are billed as the cold pack that sticks.

PainCakes are low profile, lightweight, reusable cold packs that use a medical-grade, non-toxic nano gel that sticks to your skin. The gel itself won’t irritate your skin or stick to hair when removing. And it can be reused over 100 times.

The pack itself is 5-inches in diameter, making it perfect to bring targeted cooling to relieve pain, soreness, and inflammation.

Just chill, peel off the adhesive cover and apply the sticky portion to clean, dry skin for 3-10 minutes. When you’re done, replace the back cover and stick it back into the freezer until next use.

It’s also non-latex, hypoallergenic and non-toxic.

PainCakes come in blue, green or purple and are available for $12.95 on The Grommet.

The Synca Wellness massage chair will relieve your tension in style

NEWS – For many years I have played around with cost-effective solutions to create a comfortable and effective massage chair. Whenever I get home from a long photo or video shoot or sometimes after a tense day at work, nothing feels better than a heated back massage. Over the years, I have tried the portable massage pads that you place in a chair and plug up to an AC adapter or to the cigarette lighter in your car. I must have spent at least $400 on a few of them, but they never seem to do the job right, and the wires always seem to get in the way. I have found that the chairs with the built-in massage function work a whole lot better, but many of them are priced in the $1000s and, to be honest, are quite ugly. Since I can learn to live with the ugliness but not the cost, I have even made excuses to take trips to the mall not far away from my home, so that I can sit in their massage chairs at the reasonable cost of $1 for 3 minutes.

Recently, I came across the Synca Wellness CirC – SL Track Heated Massage Chair. In my opinion, this massage chair starts the competition ahead of the pack because of the refined look that makes it pleasing to look at and allows it to adequately blend into any décor. In addition to its “look”, it is smaller than most massage chairs, while offering what its manufacturer claims to be lumbar heat and an impressive massage. It is designed with a 106-degree angle between the seat and the backrest to create an “ergonomically comfortable seating angle and position”. It also includes ambient side lighting to help to create the right atmosphere and mood.

If you would like to try out the Synca Wellness CirC – SL Track Heated Massage Chair, you can purchase one on Amazon for $899.99 in either a coffee, wine or beige color.

Armpit-free crutches take the pain out of walking when you’re injured

NEWS – Have you ever had to use crutches? I have two times and neither time was enjoyable. The first time was the summer of my senior year of high school when I had to have orthoscopic surgery on my knee to remove some junk in the joint. Several years later I had to use crutches again after I rolled my ankle. Ugh, thinking about that one still makes me cringe. Anyway, what I’m trying to get at is that using crutches was awkward and uncomfortable. The pain using crutches was almost as bad as the injury that caused me to need the crutches in the first place. Well, now there’s a new way to stay mobile while injured without using traditional crutches. It’s the iWALK 2.0 and it’s an armpit-free crutch that allows you to walk relatively normally.

The iWALK 2.0 looks similar to a knee scooter, but it allows you to remain hands-free so you can carry things, push a shopping cart, and even go up and down stairs by yourself. The crutch straps to your leg and provides a platform where your shin can rest to keep weight off your lower leg. I realize that the iWalk isn’t a solution for every leg injury like my knee surgery recovery, but I can see how it could be useful for ankle,  Achilles tendon injuries, and other injuries. The iWALK 2.0 is priced at $149 and is available at iwalk-free.com and Amazon.
