Cherry Hill Podiatrist Offers Feldenkrais Method To Patients

Dr. Lee S. Cohen, podiatrist of Cherry Hill, is pleased to announce a new service to his patients

2013-03-10

CHERRY HILL, NJ, March 10, 2013 (Press-News.org) Dr. Lee S. Cohen, Cherry Hill podiatrist, is happy to offer the Feldenkrais Method to his patients. This lesson is a gentle, hands-on form of physical therapy that focuses on correlating the mind and the body to find efficient and effective movement to help avoid injuries. Through this method you can reduce or eliminate pain, increase range of motion and improve flexibility and coordination. This lesson is offered Wednesday afternoons and Friday mornings.

"I am very glad that our practice is offering this lesson to our patients. We are always looking for new and innovative ways to heal and prevent future injuries. I hope that many of our patients will try this service," said Dr. Cohen, Cherry Hill, NJ podiatrist.

To change how a patient moves, they need to improve how their brain communicates and reorganizes the body. The Feldenkrais Method encourages this process through developing new and more efficient options in movement. These new movement patterns come from what the brain is telling the muscles to do. During this lesson, patients will be led through a series of movements while lying on a table, but also in sitting and standing positions as well. Comfortable clothing that permits movement is recommended.

Boulder Dentist Provides Dental Services To Those In Need In Nicaragua

2013-03-10

Dr. John Montoya, dentist in Boulder, CO, was happy to share his skill and talent in Nicaragua to help those in need of dental work. Dr. Montoya traveled with a medical and vision team as well and saw about 200 patients each day on their 10 day stay. "We are so excited that we had this opportunity to go and provide services to those who have little to no access to dental care. The bugs, heat, lack of running water and electricity take a backseat when you are on a mission to help others. It was a wonderful experience and we are so thankful for the opportunity," ...

British Airways Announces New Flights to Ibiza

2013-03-10

British Airways has announced the launch of a new service to Ibiza from Heathrow Airport, with weekend services starting at Heathrow from April 27, 2013. The flight times will come as welcome news for clubbers, who will be able to arrive and depart during the day, allowing them to maximize their party-time on and avoid late night flights to Ibiza. The Saturday service will depart from Heathrow at 11.20am, arriving at 2.45pm, with return flights at 3.30pm arriving back at 5pm. The Sunday flights will depart Heathrow at 7.05am, arriving at 10.30am, with the return ...

Biological tooth replacement -- a step closer

2013-03-09

Scientists have developed a new method of replacing missing teeth with a bioengineered material generated from a person's own gum cells. Current implant-based methods of whole tooth replacement fail to reproduce a natural root structure and as a consequence of the friction from eating and other jaw movement, loss of jaw bone can occur around the implant. The research is led by Professor Paul Sharpe, an expert in craniofacial development and stem cell biology at King's College London and published in the Journal of Dental Research. Research towards achieving the aim of ...

Weight loss may prevent, treat osteoarthritis in obese patients

2013-03-09

ROSEMONT, Ill.—Weight loss may prevent and significantly alleviate the symptoms of osteoarthritis, a progressive disease of the joints known as "wear and tear" arthritis, according to a literature review appearing in the March 2013 issue of the Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (JAAOS). According to the article, obesity actually may trigger the biomechanical and inflammatory changes that cause osteoarthritis, and the pain and loss of mobility associated with the condition. "There's a clear link between obesity and osteoarthritis, and the link is ...

New player in electron field emitter technology makes for better imaging and communications

2013-03-09

Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Maryland, College Park, have built a practical, high-efficiency nanostructured electron source. Described in the journal Nanotechnology*, this new, patent-pending technology could lead to improved microwave communications and radar, and more notably to new and improved X-ray imaging systems for security and health-care applications. While thermionic electron sources such as the hot filaments inside cathode ray tubes have largely been replaced by LEDs and liquid crystals for display ...

NIST quantum refrigerator offers extreme cooling and convenience

2013-03-09

Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated a solid-state refrigerator that uses quantum physics in micro- and nanostructures to cool a much larger object to extremely low temperatures. What's more, the prototype NIST refrigerator, which measures a few inches in outer dimensions, enables researchers to place any suitable object in the cooling zone and later remove and replace it, similar to an all-purpose kitchen refrigerator. The cooling power is the equivalent of a window-mounted air conditioner cooling a building the size ...

New NIST time code to boost reception for radio-controlled clocks

2013-03-09

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is changing the way it broadcasts time signals that synchronize radio-controlled "atomic" clocks and watches to official U.S. time in ways that will enable new radio-controlled timepieces to be significantly more robust and reliable. This new time broadcast protocol will not only improve the performance of new radio-controlled clocks and watches, but will encourage the development of new timekeeping products that were not practical with the old broadcast system because of local interference or other limitations. ...

Study shows confidence builds better exercise habits for cancer survivors

2013-03-09

HOUSTON - Endometrial cancer survivors are more likely to complete physical activity, and for longer durations, when their daily self-efficacy is higher, according to a study published online in the journal Health Psychology – a publication of the American Psychology Association. "Sedentary behavior is associated with increased cancer risk, including endometrial cancer," said Karen Basen-Engquist, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Behavioral Science at MD Anderson and lead investigator on the study. "When cancer survivors exercise, it not only improves their physical ...

NIST panel expands recommendations for use of electronic health records in pediatrics

2013-03-09

To speed development and adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) for pediatrics, a group of experts from industry, academia and government convened by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has focused its attention on three key audiences—records-system vendors and developers, small-group pediatric medical practices and children's hospitals. In a paper* in The Joint Commission Journal on Quality and Patient Safety, the panel of medical, human factors engineering and software-usability experts detail how specific recommendations from a recent guide ...

Why a hereditary anemia is caused by genetic mutation in mechanically sensitive ion channel

2013-03-09

BUFFALO, N.Y. – A genetic mutation that alters the kinetics of an ion channel in red blood cells has been identified as the cause behind a hereditary anemia, according to a paper (http://bit.ly/13LgCzc) published this month in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by University at Buffalo scientists and colleagues. The research team was led by Frederick Sachs, PhD, SUNY Distinguished Professor in the UB Department of Physiology and Biophysics, who discovered in the 1980s that some ion channels are mechanosensitive, that is, they convert mechanical stress ...
