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 about EverWell therapies, call 1-888-EVERWELL or visit the EverWell Web site at www.EverWell.com.
