17 Wearable Health-Improving Devices

These Devices Incorporate Health into Fashion

— July 31, 2013 — Lifestyle
While most wearable health-improving devices are low key, some are actually disguised in a fashionable way. Clothing and jewelry designs have been developed to infuse healthy living into everyday fashion.

Pulse by Electricfoxy is a silver ring that monitors the wearer’s heart rate. It glows in three different colors to indicate whether you are above or below target heart rate—it even alarms you when you’re working too hard with vibration.

The Bear Hug vest is an inflatable vest to calm autistic children. It looks like a regular jacket of some sort, but it distributes air safely and evenly to the wearer to perform deep-pressure therapy. For those needing medical aid on a day-to-day basis, wearable devices would be a lot more convenient—a bonus if they happen to be stylish.
