New alternative medicine treatment center opens in PTC
In response to the rising demand for
complementary and alternative medicine in metro Atlanta,
EverWell Healthcare Centers recently opened a Peachtree
City location at 408 Stevens Entry in Parkside Office Park.
A Chinese physical therapy technique dating
back more than 3,000 years, acuoressure massage is one
of the most popular services provided by EverWell Healthcare Centers. Used
to treat a wide range of soft tissue and
musculoskeletal problems, it was rated "Best Massage" in Atlanta
by Atlanta Magazine in 1997. Unlike Western
massage styles practiced in the United States, acupressure does
not require patients to disrobe, and messy oils and lotions
are not used.
Also being demonstrated at the grand opening
celebration is an advanced, computer-assisted form of
biofeedback that teaches patients normalize and reguulate
brain wave patterns. The treatment requires patients to play a
pac man-like video game while their brain waves are
continuously monitored by the neurotherapist on an
EEG screen. Neurofeedback training is highly effective
in treating attention deficit disorder and other
conditions such as brain injury, stroke, chronic pain,
depression, anxiety, addiction, emotional instability, epilepsy,
chronic fatigue, and insomnia.
Each of EverWell's practitioners has completed comprehensive training
in their area of specialty and has met EverWell's
rigorous credentialing criteria. Registered nurses serve as
clinic directors at each center to ensure patients receive
the most appropriate treatment options tailored to
their specific needs. The clinic director oversees the
patient's progress and works closely with the patient's
family physician to provide the best possible coordination of care.
Founded on the view that a healthy lifestyle
enables the body to stay well and heal itself, EverWell
Healthcare Centers uses traditional healing and wellness
methods to restore and maintain physical, mental,
emotional, and spiritual well being. Through natural
healing solutions, EverWell helps many patients cop with
life-long medical problems such as chronic pain,
asthma, arthritis, infertility, PMS and digestive disorders
without the pain and discomfort of surgery and drugs.
EverWell Healthcare Centers are located in Buckhead, Marietta,
and Roswell, with as fifth location coming to Gwinnett in
January. To make an appointment or to learn more
