ATLANTA, GA, July 19, 2011 (Press-News.org) Dunwoody Wellness Center plans to offer Atlanta residents holistic rejuvenation treatments for the skin and body, as it celebrates its official grand opening on International Wellness Day on July 18, 2011.
The First Annual International Wellness Day was held on July 19, 2010, in conjunction with the National Wellness Conference in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. Countries represented included Brazil, Argentina, US, Canada, Great Britain, Germany, Austria, South Africa, Australia, China, and Japan. While Dunwoody Wellness may not be sending a representative to this year's event, the center wanted to be identified with IWD's cause by having its own opening to coincide.
All Dunwoody Wellness Center procedures are medically based. Anna Gorenshteyn L.M.E., DWC co-owner, has worked as a licensed aesthetician for more than 20 years in Atlanta and 6 years before then in Europe, where she received her training from Europe's finest dermatologists. In addition to deep cleansing facials and microdermabrasion, she provides Enzyme, Biomedical and Medical Facial Peels, all designed to correct and refine the skin. Other specialties include eye and lip lifting treatments, collagen infusion masks, and detoxifying body wraps. Gorenshteyn's wellness philosophy: "Aging is a part of life, but that doesn't mean you can't look and feel young. With proper, daily care and product regimen, it's entirely possible to keep your skin looking radiant and youthful—my goal for each of my clients." This is the basis for the experience that DWC offers, including DermaSkin and Holistic Wellness Therapies.
Tatyana Foran D.C., whose background is in nursing and sports medicine, provides holistic chiropractic care using the gentle, yet highly effective Activator Technique. Dr. Foran also reinforces clients' wellness with physical therapeutic techniques and medical massage. She has worked with Olympic athletes and, most recently, some of Atlanta's sports teams top players. Dr. Foran, says, "Choosing a physical therapist who understands both skeletal and muscular structures is crucial to any wellness plan." Patients at DWC receive a complementary consultation to determine their personalized treatment. All major insurance is accepted for the chiropractic services.
CW69's A-List, the ultimate guide to Atlanta hosted by Shannon Wiseman, will feature Dunwoody Wellness Center this season. As part of its opening promotion, DWC is inviting other members of the media to schedule an appointment for complimentary services during the month of July 2011. New clients can get a 15% discount.

Exposure to secondhand smoke associated with hearing loss in adolescents
2011-07-19
Exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) is associated with increased risk of hearing loss among adolescents, according to a report in the July issue of Archives of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.
Among U.S. children, approximately 60 percent are exposed to SHS, according to background information in the article. Studies have associated exposure to secondhand smoke prenatally or during childhood with various health conditions, from low birth weight and respiratory infections to behavioral problems and otitis media. Children exposed to ...
It's simple: increasing complexity of models does not necessarily increase their accuracy
2011-07-19
Mathematical modeling of infectious diseases is an important tool in the understanding and prediction of epidemics. Knowledge of social interactions is used to understand how infectious diseases spread through populations and how to control epidemics. New research published in BMC Medicine shows that a model, which included dynamic information about the heterogeneity of contact length and rate of making new contacts, was as effective as a more complex model which included the order of contacts.
Data was collected over a two-day period, within the Socio Patterns project, ...
Paramount-Branded Theme Park Inspires Hamiltons to Double Their Spanish Property Investment
2011-07-19
When the Hamiltons purchased their holiday home in Camposol Golf on the Costa Cálida six years ago, they had no aspirations for amassing a property portfolio. However, a combination of Barry's upcoming retirement and news of a Paramount-branded Theme Park encouraged them to take advantage of the current buyers' market and purchase an additional home in Camposol Golf.
Barry (51), from County Antrim in Northern Ireland, picks up the story, "Spain was an obvious choice for us as it's just a couple of hours by direct flight from Belfast, has excellent infrastructure, ...
WHOI scientists analyze, explain the chemical makeup of Gulf plume
2011-07-19
Taking another major step in sleuthing the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, a research team led by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) has determined what chemicals were contained in a deep, hydrocarbon-containing plume at least 22 miles long that WHOI scientists mapped and sampled last summer in the Gulf of Mexico, a residue of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Moreover, they have taken a big step in explaining why some chemicals, but not others, made their way into the plume.
The findings, published this week in the online edition of the Proceedings of the ...
Study examines relationship of acculturation with sun-safe behaviors of US Latinos
2011-07-19
CHICAGO – Among Latinos living in the United States, acculturation is associated with sunscreen use, but not with use of sun-protective clothing, according to a report in the July issue of Archives of Dermatology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.
According to background information in the article, DNA damage and skin cancer are an important health issue for U.S. Latinos. Their annual age-adjusted incidence of melanoma is 4.5 per 100,000, which represents an increase of 28.6 percent since 1992. Further, when melanoma is diagnosed, it tends to be thicker among Latinos ...
Interview With Christopher Mundie, A Young Author Who Published His First Book At Age 20:
2011-07-19
Young Frankenmuth writer Christopher Mundie has written a funny, up-beat book about the life of a special kind of guy; the kind of guy you wouldn't want to have at your party or end up owing any favors to. You know the type, the cynical, sarcastic, self-centered, lying and conniving—he's The Jerk. Being a Jerk isn't so bad though, it can get you free coffee, wads of cash and a gigantic fish (if you're lucky). You can definitely hate him, but there's one thing you can't blame him for, and that's for bumping into him in the first place.
I spoke with Christopher Mundie ...
Melanoma screening by physicians associated with finding more cancers than patient self-detection
2011-07-19
Physician-based screening for melanoma is associated with higher rates of physician-detected melanoma and detection of thinner melanoma, according to a report published Online First today by Archives of Dermatology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.
The disease-specific survival rate for advanced-stage melanoma is poor, so detecting the cancer in an earlier stage is the best means to ensure a favorable prognosis, according to background information in the article. Previous research has demonstrated that patients find most melanomas, and that those lesions tend to be ...
Researchers describe outcomes of surgical procedure to treat neck muscle problems
2011-07-19
Removing a portion of the platysma muscle may ease symptoms for patients experiencing chronic neck stiffness and involuntary movement, according to a report in the July issue of Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.
In previous research, removal of parts of the platysma—the muscle stretching from the shoulders and chest through the neck—appeared successful in alleviating hypertonicity (muscular rigidity), according to background information in the article. The authors, who had begun to use muscle-transfer surgeries to treat facial paresis ...
UT Southwestern research reveals that significantly more genetic mutations lead to colon cancer
2011-07-19
DALLAS – July 18, 2011 – Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center say there are at least 70 genetic mutations involved in the formation of colon cancer, far more than scientists previously thought.
Based on the study, published in the July 2011 Cancer Research (Priority Reports), researchers are suggesting a new approach to colon cancer treatments targeting multiple genes and pathways simultaneously. Current cancer treatments target just one or two known cancer-driver genes believing this would be beneficial to patients. While patients may get transient tumor burden ...
