6 Holiday Gift Ideas That Improve Health and Wellness

wellness giftsIt’s about time to start shopping for holiday gifts, and we have some tips for doing something a little different this year. If you have someone in your life who is considered a “health nut” or know someone who wants to improve their well-being, you can choose a healthy living gift for them this holiday season. 

There are multiple options for you to choose from depending on your loved one’s interests, their health goals, and their physical ability. 

Check out a few of our top ideas for holiday wellness gifts. 

#1) Massage Therapy 

Massage therapy is a wonderful gift to show someone that you can and make the season special, but it can also be a valuable tool to improve someone’s health. Massage therapy can reduce pain and increase range of motion for those who need it. It can also improve circulation and enhance the immune system. Learn about the different types of massage therapy to pick out the best wellness gift for your loved one. 

#2) Acupuncture Treatment

Gift cards for acupuncture can also serve as a unique wellness gift for someone who enjoys trying new things to promote their health. Acupuncture has been known to help with fatigue (valuable after the holiday season) as well as digestive issues, respiratory conditions, and emotional disorders. 

#3) Yoga Memberships

Yoga memberships make great wellness gifts because they combine the mental and physical part of your health. Plus, there are so many different types of yoga — from outdoor yoga to hot yoga — that you can find something really creative to give as a gift. If the person you’re buying for already has a membership at their favorite yoga studio, look to upgrade their matt or buy other accessories to help them have a better experience. 

#4) Outdoor Gear (That You Can Use Together)

Some of the best wellness gifts are ones that you can use together. For example,  if you’re thinking about getting a family member or significant other a stand-up paddleboard or new bike that they can use, consider getting two so that you can join them. This will help with your mental health (creating close personal bonds) and get you outside alongside the person who receives the gift. 

#5) Personal Training Sessions 

Do you know someone who loves going to the gym? Consider upgrading their gym experience with a few personal training sessions. Working with a trainer can help them improve their form and learn new ways to work out different muscle groups. This is also a good gift option for someone who feels nervous about the gym and wants to work out in a comfortable setting. 

#6) Nutritionist Consultations

Along with meeting with a personal trainer, setting up sessions with a dietician can serve as a luxurious option for improving wellness. Dieticians look at a person’s diet and offer ideas for eating more balanced meals and improving their overall well-being.
