The attachments work on different parts of the body such as trigger points, large muscle groups and small muscle groups, and bony areas. Although it's certainly expensive, it's about the same cost as three visits to a masseuse—so for a dad with extra sore muscles, it might be worth it.

Coravin Model Three+ Wine Bottle Opener and Preservation System

View On Amazon View On Coravin.com

Coravin systems are designed for people who like to enjoy their wine one glass at a time and might have a few extra-special vintages lying around they want to pick and choose from. The device clamps around the bottle and comes with a thin needle that pierces the cork, so you can pour yourselves a glass or two without needing to completely open the bottle.

Once you've poured, the capsule fills the remaining space with argon gas to prevent oxidation (that's what makes day-old wine taste bad), and the cork reseals itself after the needle is pulled out. The system also works with screw-top wines using a special cap accessory.
