Merchandise Monday: Say Spaaah!

These days more than ever, it seems harder to justify the little luxuries that we used to indulge in without even batting an eye – a massage, an extra round of golf, a mani/pedi or meal out. Luckily, it’s becoming easier to enjoy some of these things from the comforts of our own homes – and not to mention more affordable.

Today’s Merch Monday focuses on a few products that will help you unwind, feel pampered and restore you to good health without planning any special trips or taking a hammer to your piggy bank.

Homedics® EnviraScape™ Mariposa Illuminated Relaxation Fountain

Create a serene, stress-free ambiance with this floral-inspired fountain. The design draws inspiration from the natural beauty of a lotus-filled pond and brings the peace and tranquility of the outdoors into your home. Water flows down the flower petals, creating soothing water sounds. The natural flower blossom design adds romance to any décor and the fountain is illuminated for a more dramatic effect. 

Comfort Products 10-Motor Massage Seat Cushion

Get comfortable and soothe your aches and pains at home or on the go. The 10 Motor Massage Seat Cushion features ten invigorating vibration motors, five body zones and soothing heat treatment in the lumbar area. Adjust the settings to your specific needs with the easy-to-operate hand controller. The seat cushion is made from simulated suede fabric and the adjustable strap secures to most seats. 

Brookstone® Aqua-Jet Foot Spa®

There’s nothing nicer than coming home to the perfect foot massage. Get soothing heat and powerful hydro jets to all the right places in your tired feet.  Just choose your speed, sit back and enjoy as this roomy, oversized tub works to increase circulation, relieve tight muscles and relax tired feet. Two rolling nodes provide kneading massage to your arches, leaving no tired muscle untouched.

Hurom® Slow Juicer

You’ll feel good inside and out when you feed your body what it needs. Using the patented Low Speed Technology System, the slow juicer extracts the maximum amount of nutrients, vitamins, taste, and even enzymes from a minimum amount of food such as, fruits, vegetables, leafy greens, wheatgrass, nuts and even soy beans. Get re-energized the natural way and skip the pricey juice bar.

Feeling more relaxed already, aren’t you? It doesn’t take much to de-stress and bring a bit of calm into your day, and you don’t need to go beyond your means to achieve tranquility. A few quick and easy steps are all it takes to bring balance to your life. Go ahead and chill out, and then talk to us in the “Comments” section below.

Relax with Panasonic's Massage Chair

Frankie Goes To Hollywood had some good advice when they told us to "Relax" in 1984. Panasonic's Urban Collection Massage Chair helps us do that even better.

A more high-end, higher-point reward option, the Urban Collection Massage Chair offers four pre-set programs with eight additional manual modes that result in a combination of 44 different types of massage experiences. One mode in particular, the "Chiro Mode," which is specially designed to provide better muscle relaxation and eliminate tired, over-worked muscles.

The EP1285 model features a 14 airbag cirulation system that provides a more complete lower body massage. An adjustable ottoman is included in the chair that also fails to neglect the importance of a good old-fashioned calf and shin massage. While massaging the legs, the ottoman raises and lowers your legs in 20 degree increments to alleviate the stiffness in your lower back, hips and thighs.

Stress is a common thing in a work environment. Taking care of yourself, even with a quick 15 sitting time in a Panasonic Urban Collection Massage Chair, can do wonders for your health. Releasing tension in over-worked muscles while also helping alleviate stress can help yourself (or any worker for that matter) be more productive and efficient for the next working day.
