Helping Turn Back Time

BOTOX® is a popular worldwide treatment that works by blocking nerve impulses to the muscles, causing them to relax. As a result, your expressions soften, and dynamic wrinkles are greatly reduced. Why are BOTOX® treatments so popular? – It doesn’t change the way you look but helps smooth away strong expression lines making you look younger and more relaxed. – It is extremely safe and effective, when administered by experienced physicians. – The treatment is virtually painless and can be administered in minutes. – The results can last up to 6 months.

Considering Compression Stockings?

Compression is great for jobs with prolonged sitting or standing, pregnancy and pre and post-vein surgery. They are also great for everyday activities, like hiking, and jogging! Benefits include improving circulation, reducing swelling, and relieving achy and fatigued legs. Get them fitted by a trained professional and ensure the compression is graduated; strongest at the ankle and less as it moves up the leg. They come in various colors and styles to meet your needs and personal preferences. Most benefit plans cover medical compression stockings annually with a doctor’s prescription.
