The Ryoku EMS Foot Massager
I thought I had everything, but I could certainly use a cool new foot massager. I could put it under my desk and have it running during conference calls. I might be in a better mood!
Fitsenso SmartWatch
The fitness smartwatch market has been blowing up for a few years. This one monitors your blood glucose, blood pressure, heart rate, caloric intake, body temperature, and it even tells you what time it is.
ClearPik Dental Descaler
This little gadget could save you some real money over time. I had to have my teeth descaled a few years ago, and it wasn’t cheap, even with insurance. If you’re a man, and you put off visiting the dentist until it’s too late, this could be just what you need.
Nooro Knee Massager
Health and fitness seem to be the big sellers this year. This cool knee massager uses heat and massage therapy to increase blood circulation. This would make a great gift for anyone.
Muama Ryoko Portable Wireless Router
This hip little device creates a 4G LTE WiFi network instantly, and it fits in your pocket. This would be great for those hotels and trade shows that have less than perfect WiFi. If you can’t find WiFi, bring your own!
