Smart trackers in watches and some phones have the ability to take an ECG reading and deliver an alert for things like atrial fibrillation. Some models can detect sleep apnea and measure antioxidant levels. In the future, health trackers may be able to measure blood pressure.

Health tech has come a long way from the old pedometers we used to count steps. They have evolved into watches, rings and apps in our phones to track movement, steps, heart rate, breathing rate, temperature and more.

Moving into the Warmer Weather
Watch for medications that interfere with your body’s ability to tolerate high temperatures because they affect parts of the brain responsible for internal temperature regulation. In particular, some asthma and hay fever medications can reduce your tolerance to heat.

Moving into the Warmer Weather
Transition your home so that you’re living cooler. Ditch the flannel and heavy comforters for lightweight cotton, percale or linen sheets. Keep curtains and blinds closed during the day to block out direct sunlight and heat. Run ceiling fans counterclockwise to create a cool, downward breeze.

Moving into the Warmer Weather
Ditch the winter clothing. Choose breathable fabrics like cotton, poplin, linen or moisture-wicking synthetics in light colors that reflect the sunlight rather than absorb it. Invest in some good UV-blocking sunglasses, a wide-brimmed hat that will cover your neck and shoulders, and use a good high spf sunscreen.

Moving into the Warmer Weather
Acclimatize your body by easing into the heat. Spend short segment (20-30 minutes) then gradually increase your exposure. Hydrate proactively. Drink water all day, and replenish electrolytes if you are sweating heavily. Adjust your workout schedule by shifting to early mornings or late evenings when temperatures are cooler than at mid-day.

Plantar Fasciitis is a Common Spring Sports Injury
Plantar fasciitis is when the bottom of your foot hurts, especially around the heel and is at its worst first thing in the morning. It’s common for runners or people who jump into too much exercise too fast. To prevent this pain, wear shoes with good arch support, stretch your feet before you exercise, and increase your activity slowly.
Plantar fasciitis often has its root in the calf muscles so neuromuscular massage can go a great way to relieving the source of the pain in your feet.

Tennis Elbow is a Common Spring Sports Injury
Tennis elbow doesn’t just happen to tennis players. It can affect anyone who uses their arms a lot in sports, like baseball or golf. It happens when the tendons in your elbow get hurt from overuse. You can avoid tennis elbow by using the right technique, stretching your arms, and not pushing yourself too hard. Neuromuscular massage can help with healing and regaining range of motion.
