Fitness Vibration Cure-All: Weight Loss, Arthritis, Circulation, Well-Being

Posted on 14 May, 2013 by activeforever

Vibrate Fitness and Vitality with Whole Body Vibration

Straight from the stars comes the last word in all-encompassing fitness and health: Whole Body Vibration or WBV.

Originally used for cosmonaut training, the craze spread quickly throughout Europe and Japan. The rest, as they say, is history. Vibration enthusiasts became hooked on the benefits. They began to experience increased circulation, range of motion and flexibility.

They appreciated the improvements in muscle strength, core conditioning and stability; not to mention the faster muscle recovery following a workout. Gyms and centers devoted entirely to Whole Body Vibration came to dominate the psyche of the fitness conscious public.

The Medvibe NitroFit Personal Whole Body Vibration Platform features 5 built-in workout programs and a blue LED control panel to track your pulse and body fat as you exercise. $999.00 with a $50 mail-in rebate!

Whole Body Vibration allows the user to take on less physical load when compared to weight lifting, yet achieve similar results in less time. During the workout, muscle tissues contract and relax thousands of times per second, providing unmatched fat burning efficiency. Risk of injury during the workout period is greatly reduced. Weight loss, muscle strength and tone increases during WBV due to the extreme stimulus your muscles must respond to each second.

Multiple reports and independent tests confirm that athletic performance increases when whole body vibration is used in conjunction with training exercises. Manufacturers say WBV is an excellent way for those who have health restrictions that keep them from exercising, such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and some forms of Arthritis, to tone muscle and condition.

Active Halo GPS, Alzheimer’s and ActiveForever

Posted on 8 May, 2013 by activeforever

With the Baby Boomers heading toward retirement and people living longer than ever before, the size of the elderly population is ever-increasing. It’s no wonder research, developments and studies involving Alzheimer’s seem to dominate the news cycle these days.

There’s a distinct shortage of equipment and device options available to meet the specific needs of an Alzheimer’s caregiver. Here at ActiveForever we’re thrilled to be able to offer ActiveHalo GPS, the world’s smallest and most powerful GPS monitoring system in the world to the caregivers, families, loved ones, friends and neighbors of Alzheimer’s patients.

Active Halo GPS faceplates allow for personalization and distinction among multi-unit households and organizations.

With the ultra-feature-rich Active Halo GPS tracking system it is easy to go about your day while staying abreast of the whereabouts of those in your care. “Safe” zones alert you when the person being tracked has ventured outside of installed parameters. Advanced Breadcrumbing functionality allows for up-to-the minute tracking.

Click the screenshot to view a gallery of the features and benefits of Active Halo GPS:

The Active Halo GPS reports on a 5-minute interval which keeps track of a person’s whereabouts automatically. It provides users with a visual trace of visited location(s).

Located front and center on the Active Halo GPS unit is an “SOS” button with voice monitoring. It gives the caregiver the ability to “listen-in” to surrounding sounds while it simultaneously sends instant text and email alerts with location information to a pre-selected group of recipients. With this customizable GPS for adults; safety alerting, tracking and reporting system, the possibilities are endless. Perhaps the best part however, is the amazing affordability.

Uniband Resistance Bands for Enhanced Weight Lifting

Posted on 6 May, 2013 by activeforever

The Uniband Latex Free Resistance Bands from ActiveForever are excellent mobility/rehabilitation tools which can be used to enhance weight lifting and training exercises as well. Unibands are the only resistance bands made to withstand pool chemicals. They make a great and fun addition to any water aerobics session!

Unlike traditional weight training, in which the rate of exertion is lighter with the finishing motion, with Unibands, the resistance of the bands increases as they are stretched. Color-coded Unibands offer five different levels of resistance, from very light to very heavy.

$Uniband Latex Free Resistance Bands$

Uniband Latex Free Resistance Bands come with accessories to improve and enhance your strength training regimen! $75.99

The Uniband forces your muscles to speed up at the end of an exertion in order to overcome the resistance of the bands at the top of the movement. In this way muscles are really pushed to their capacity at a much greater rate than with regular weights. At the moment when traditional weights are lightening their load, the Unibands are really making those muscles work.This allows you to develop strength, tone and agility in all major muscle groups, as well as the minor groups that are normally neglected. When working out with resistance bands, the entire dynamic of the exercise is changed and enhanced.

The following is a *rave* review for TranquilEyes from an actual customer named Elaine. She gave TranquilEyes FIVE STARS:

Dear Brad, use of Tranquilizeyes goggles has kept me from having the RED red eyes, lids and eyes, that I’ve had for 12 years. 12 years ago I had a sever attack of Shingles in my eye, and I’ve had pain ever since. So I thought that my red eyes were just one more thing that I had to live with. Terrible pain in the morning with those red eyes, because my eyelashes grow inward and scratch my cornea. I have to sleep with a contact in my eye because of the scratches – but the contact would dry out because I also sleep with my eye opened. Now, in the morning, I am pain free. You can see how I went round and round with my symptoms. Now with moist eye protection all night, my eyes are still moist in the morning. The redness is starting to go away also.
My Doctor suggested Tranquilize goggles for me.
I can’t wait to thank him.
Thanks to you VERY helpful people at activeforever also, because after I had placed my order, a lovely girl called and said that if I had sensitive skin, I should order the goggle that is not covered with fabric. She handled the exchange for me, and she was right…I would not have been able to stand the fabric.
I have just ordered a pair (sensitive eyes and skin) for one of my daughters who will be visiting next week. She will love them. Especially since she lives in California and I am in Florida and the sun comes in the windows of my guest room too too early for her … and she also has sensitive eyes.
Thank you for writing, Brad.
Have a good life, Elaine.

ActiveForever in the News for the Invacare Perfecto2

Posted on 12 April, 2013 by activeforever

In an article posted by Ezra Klein last Thursday on Washington Post’s Wonkblog, the writer laments about the financial and otherwise pains of renting the Invacare Perfecto2 through his traditional insurance plan. Wishes he could buy it outright from ActiveForever!

He was diagnosed as needing oxygen therapy when he sleeps. But that’s not the worst part of the ordeal. The worst part occurs when he receives his bill and is monthly reminded of how much money he is being forced to waste. His insurance does not provide him the more affordable option of purchasing the equipment.

He writes:

For the same oxygen concentrator that I would be able to buy online for around $700 (my particular model is the Invacare Perfecto2 – available online with free shipping from ActiveForever for $706.30 as of this afternoon), Apria charges $137.13 per month – I am charged a copay of 20%, or $27.42. So far, over the past 7 years, they’ve gotten well over $10,000 out of me and my insurance companies (the price has increased some – when I first started, I was paying around $19 per month).

When I tried to talk to my insurance company about just buying the machine, I was told that it was against policy because renting it assured that someone would “monitor the equipment.” Right. Monitoring the equipment is apparently code for someone coming in twice a year to switch out a little 1 inch filter – at $1,645.56 per year, that’s over $800 per filter. (Yeah, I priced them too – $13.41 each.)

The now-famous Invacare Perfecto2. The Perfecto2 is Invacare’s lightest, smallest, and most energy efficient home oxygen concentrator. $706.30. Plus free shipping.

Take the Combat out of Compression

Posted on 9 April, 2013 by activeforever

Have you ever tried to wrestle a bear?

Some would consider it a small feat compared to the daunting task of putting on compression stockings. You can pull and push, struggle and strategize, but those stockings are not going anywhere.

Remember: compression and combat are not a package deal. You do not have to struggle anymore.

Snore No More!

Posted on 2 April, 2013 by activeforever

There’s no buzz-kill quite that like of a strong, steady stream of snoring from the person lying next to you. In the case with more sonorous snores, vicinity isn’t even necessary. Your slumber can be spoiled from an entirely different room.

Individuals who suffer from snoring cause both themselves and their partners to lose vital sleep each night. Such sleep deprivation can lead to fatigue, daytime sleepiness and serious long-term health risks. Not to mention that chronic snoring is a patent menace to society and a known relationship killer.

It’s no wonder why searches like how to stop snoring and snoring remedies are so popular.

ActiveForever has a line of Snore Free products dedicated to restoring the lost art of restful, uninterrupted sleep.

The most popular by far is the Snore Free Now Kit. The patented, non-surgical oral appliance is specifically designed to effectively treat most cases of snoring, mild sleep apnea and teeth grinding. It’s hospital tested and clinically proven to be a safe, effective solution to prevent snoring.

The Snore Free Now Kit from ActiveForever is extremely easy to use, comfortable to wear and can vastly improve your overall quality of sleep. $39.95

Summer = Skin Care and Hair Removal

Posted on 19 March, 2013 by activeforever

It’s almost Summer. That means the time for subtle, flawless, natural beauty is upon us. The first step to achieving this look is to obtain a clear, beautiful complexion.

For youthful, glowing skin, you have the modern miracle that is Microdermabrasion. The Crystalift Microdermabrasion System clears away old, dead skin cells and diminishes lines, wrinkles and age spots. The Crystalift is painless, easy-to-use and designed for home use.

Non-invasive, non-chemical, and non-surgical, the Crystalift Skin Resurfacing Microdermabrasion System combines two new technologies: crystal resurfacing and vacuum-lift therapy to remove dead and damaged skin cells. $199.00

The Quasar MD Plus Advanced Light Therapy Device is the most powerful wrinkle-reducing technology ever used before in the Quasar family. $795.00

The Quasar MD Plus Advanced Light Therapy is an excellent remedy for problem skin as well. This Quasar is 25 percent stronger than the original Quasar MD, treating acne and signs of aging with no downtime. This “medical-grade skin rejuvenation” therapy promotes the development of collagen and elastin, making it ideal for repairing wrinkles around the eyes.

Internationally acclaimed, Quasar Bio-Tech has been featured on TV’s “The Doctors”, in Vogue Magazine, and The New York Times. Quasar Bio-Tech has also won the 2010 and 2011 New Beauty Magazine “Beauty Choice” awards.

Facial hair is a frequent culprit behind drab skin which is often overlooked. Female celebrities these days take pains to ensure all but their scalps are completely devoid of hair. As a result, their complexion’s appear baby smooth and clear. The Vector Electrolysis Permanent Hair Removal System provides for painless and permanent hair removal and constant red-carpet readiness.

And of course…

Make sure your skin stays fully hydrated. Drink lots of water and invest in a quality moisturizer suited for your skin type.

Eat a healthy diet full of whole, not processed foods. Foods rich in “good fats” such as salmon, avocados, nuts and seeds are ideal.

Wear sunscreen and sunglasses. All that squinting does leave a mark!

Don’t smoke.

Always make sure you get proper rest, and while you’re at it, sleep on your back. Over time we develop our own unique sleep lines depending on where we rest our faces. People who sleep on their backs do not develop these lines. If nightly lying in the casket style sounds unmanageable to you, it’s time to invest in a groove-shaped pillow that supports that position. The enVy Pillow—truly a modern marvel of modern sleep and wellness technology—works like a dream.

The enVy Anti-Aging, Wellness Pillow helps you sleep comfortably on your back for a beautifying, wrinkle-free slumber. $159.00
