“All the stress you're under daily, not just from skating and competing at the highest level, but everything that throws off your routine, and if something like Aires can help with that, it’s just a really easy thing to do.”– John Tavares
The National Hockey League season is a marathon of grueling practices, high-stakes games, and endless travel. With the constant pressure NHL athletes face to compete at their highest level in such a high-energy sport, every detail matters. For John Tavares of the Toronto Maple Leaves, those details extend beyond the ice. At 33, he’s balancing life in the NHL with family responsibilities, pursuing wellness for himself and his loved ones. Tavares is committed to his team’s success as well as creating a healthy environment at home with his wife and young children.
Maximizing Mental and Physical Health
Tavares knows success at the highest level is about consistency. The wellness tools and routines he has for game day are just as important on his days off, because they help him wake up feeling good, with mental clarity and energy. “It’s been an evolution I think, as an athlete, as a person,” he reflects during his interview with Aires. “As I broke into the league professionally and trying to learn how to get better, perform better, and be more consistent. It’s been a realization of all these different types of things you try to do to maximize yourself mentally and physically to play well and perform well.”
He pursues optimal health to show up for his team, and also to be present for his family. For Tavares, it’s about staying educated and informed, understanding and doing the best he can to take care of himself and his loved ones.
Invisible Challenges
Even the most prepared athletes are fighting challenges we don’t see. Tavares discovered his environment was taking a toll on his performance, specifically his exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation from constant travel, screens, and tech-heavy arenas. Mental fatigue, restlessness, and dips in focus became harder to ignore. For a professional hockey player, who relies on precision and quick decision-making, these subtle shifts became noticeable.
EMFs is an often-overlooked stressor, but it has been linked to potential health effects such as:
All of these challenges can quietly impact performance and recovery. Tavares shares his belief that there’s a lot of good things about technology, especially in the health and wellness space. But being consistent about addressing his electromagnetic environment using Aires has given him the support he needs when it comes to overall well-being and performance.
How John Tavares Discovered Aires
A therapist introduced Tavares to Aires during a particularly demanding season. Aires offered a simple, science-backed solution that didn’t interfere with his routine or his technology. Aires devices work passively in the background, restructuring surrounding EMFs into a more biologically-friendly form.
Tavares noticed the change after incorporating Aires into his wellness toolkit. “It’s amazing how in tune you become with yourself,” he shares. When you’re taking the time and effort to optimize your wellness and performance, you notice the subtle shifts. For Tavares, that shift makes a difference in how he feels, how he plays, and how he recovers.
Why John Tavares Trusts Aires
At the elite level, every detail counts. That’s why Tavares has made Aires part of his daily life, on and off the rink. Aires' patented technology restructures EMFs instead of blocking them, supporting the body amidst the hidden stress that comes with constant electromagnetic exposure.
The results speak for themselves. Results from over 40 scientific investigations, clinical studies and peer reviewed research has shown that Aires can deliver:
Sharper focus & cognitive performance: Increased brainwave frequency
Stronger cardiovascular resilience: 13.5% better cardiovascular adaptation
Improved nervous system balance: 92.3% better stress control
Faster recovery & reduced fatigue: 11.5% boost in autonomic regulation
Cellular-level protection: 4X reduction in chromosome damage
Leadership in Action
John Tavares has built a career from a solid foundation of consistency and dedication. Aires has given him a way to reduce the invisible stressors of modern life, providing another advantage to set him apart from the other elite athletes he encounters during every game.
But it goes beyond hockey. Tavares has made it a priority to find ways to feel his best, physically and mentally, so that he can be present with his family amidst the demands of an NHL season. Aires supports that goal by offering peace of mind at home, where balance and focus matter just as much as in any playoff game.
