Urban & Activator® Poles Now Eligible for HSA/FSA Reimbursement and Available at Retail Locations Nationwide

TORONTO, June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Urban Poling Inc. is proud to announce that its revolutionary Urban and Activator^® Poles are now eligible for reimbursement through Health Spending Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)—making it easier and more affordable than ever to invest in your health, mobility, and independence.

Both Urban and Activator^® Poles are now available for purchase through the FSA/HSA Store and in many retail locations across North America. To find a store near you, simply visit our Find a Retailer page.

Being featured on the FSA/HSA Store is a significant milestone for Urban Poling Inc. This trusted platform gives consumers across the U.S. easier access to healthcare-approved products that enhance everyday wellness. It reinforces the credibility of our poles as legitimate, medically recognized tools that support functional fitness, injury recovery, and chronic condition management. The listing allows individuals and families to use pre-tax dollars to purchase our evidence-based products, making them more accessible to those who need them most.

There's never been a better time to commit to your health. Urban and Activator^® Poles offer full-body wellness benefits that go far beyond traditional walking. Scientific research—including a multi-year Canadian Heart Institute study—has shown that walking with poles can burn up to 46% more calories, significantly improve functional capacity, and engage up to 90% of your muscles by incorporating the arms, shoulders, core, and back.

But it's the Activator^® Poles that truly set a new standard for accessibility and support. Originally designed by an occupational therapist and backed by clinical studies, these patented poles are widely used by rehabilitation professionals for clients managing conditions such as Parkinson's disease, arthritis, stroke recovery, chronic pain, balance issues, and more. Activator Poles provide:

• Enhanced core activation
• Off-loading of painful joints
• Improved posture and stability
• Support for balance and fall prevention
• A safe, effective tool for users of all ages and fitness levels

As highlighted in Harvard Health, poles also promote better walking stride, reduce joint strain, and decrease fall risk—making them a "game-changer" for people looking to stay active, recover from injury, or manage chronic conditions.

Whether you're looking to elevate your fitness routine or need added support for rehabilitation or daily mobility, Urban and Activator^® Poles are your powerful partners in wellness.

Eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement. Available now at FSA Store and UrbanPoling.com.
