Wednesday, Jan. 12th 12:00 - 1:30 PM -or- 6:00 - 7:30 PM Laurel Sterling Prisco, R.D. The search for The Fountain of Youth is as eternal as time itself. And people will go to extremes—from plastic surgery to sleeping in oxygen beds—to halt the march time takes across their face. Despite these efforts, there’s considerable evidence that the basics of a healthy regime— proper exercise and nutrition—are the best preservers of health and well-being in old age. Research shows increasing activity has positive effects on many of the risk factors for developing chronic disease and on mortality rates, and that exercise has an ameliorating role once these diseases are established. Other studies show that 85 percent of Americans older than 65 have at least one chronic I N T H E C O M M U N I T Y R O O M disease that could be helped by nutrition therapy. Most notice that when they keep to an exercise and balanced diet regime, they are mentally and physically stronger and better able to fight disease. So instead of trying the next anti-aging pill or surgical quick-fix, join Laurel Sterling Prisco, Natur-Tyme’s Registered Dietitian, and Jill Kanaley, to devise a simple lifestyle plan. Their workshop will cover the common challenges associated with aging, as well as the best ways to maintain optimal health through all your years. Jill Kanaley is an Associate Professor for the Department of Exercise Science, the Director of Human Performance Lab, and an Exercise Psychologist at Syracuse University. RELIEVE CHRONIC PAIN WITH COLD LASER THERAPY Thursday, Jan. 13th 12:00 - 1:30 PM -or- 5:00 - 6:30 PM Jeffrey Winston, D.C. Have you suffered from chronic pain associated with injuries and conditions, such as … • Arthritis • Foot, ankle, and leg problems (Plantar Fasciitis/bone spurs) • Knee, hip, and spinal problems (back/neck/TMJ) • Shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand problems (Carpal Tunnel) … and never found relief? Look no further. Already available in Canada and Europe, Cold Laser Therapy comes to the U.S. for the first time to control pain and heal tissue in rehabilitation medicine. It is safe, painless, quick, and easy to apply; and results are often immediate with no side effects. A cold or low-level laser is a therapeutic non-surgical, non-invasive device that painlessly penetrates two to three inches into the body using non-visible light to stimulate and regenerate damaged or injured muscles, ligaments, nerves, bones, joints, and soft tissue. It works on softening scar tissue that originally formed to protect the injured area. It increases joint mobility and reduces and stops inflammation, restoring the injured body part back to or near pre-injury condition, without drugs or surgery. Cold Laser Therapy uses invisible laser light, Theralase TLC500, cutting-edge technology used by NASA, which stimulates cells to increase lymph flow, decreases the firing of pain fibers, and reinitiate healing. Join Paul Knight and Jeffrey Winston, D.C., as they discuss positive cumulative and systemic effects of this therapy, the conditions it helps, as well as explain and demonstrate a typical treatment. Pivotal in bringing Cold Laser Therapy to the U.S. and beginning the FDA approval process, Paul Knight has had a Cold Laser Therapy practice in Rochester for several years and is expanding into Syracuse and Buffalo. Jeffrey Winston, D.C., is a graduate of New York Chiropractic College and has integrated Cold Laser Therapy into his offices located in Seneca Falls and Fairmount.

Then try a LIFESTYLE CHANGE, not a fad diet. First Line Therapy, a therapeutic lifestyle program, offers a weight-loss plan supervised by medical practitioners.
