<strong>Lady</strong> - A Women’s Expo to return April<br />

21 to Tinley Park Convention Center<br />

JON DEPAOLIS<br />

Freelance Reporter<br />

It is a Mother’s Day tradition<br />

unlike any other.<br />

<strong>Lady</strong> - A Women’s<br />

Expo, presented by 22nd<br />

Century Media and Planet<br />

Fitness, is set to return<br />

from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday,<br />

April 21, at the Tinley<br />

Park Convention Center,<br />

18451 Convention Center<br />

Drive in Tinley Park.<br />

The annual event also<br />

is sponsored by the Chicago<br />

Sky, Ingalls Health<br />

System and Celebrity<br />

Cruises.<br />

The free event has more<br />

than 100 vendors slated to<br />

attend this year — covering<br />

health and wellness to<br />

fashion and beauty, food<br />

to financial planning —<br />

making it the largest <strong>Lady</strong><br />

expo to date, according to<br />

Heather Warthen, chief<br />

events officer at 22nd<br />

Century Media.<br />

“The nice thing about<br />

this expo that I see year to<br />

year is that we see a lot of<br />

girls getting together and<br />

starting a ladies day out,”<br />

Warthen said. “We also<br />

draw moms, daughters<br />

and granddaughters. That’s<br />

what makes me happy. It’s<br />

a great prelude into Mother’s<br />

Day weekend and a<br />

great chance for women of<br />

all ages to bond.”<br />

Among the highlights<br />

this year will be an expanded<br />

roster of vendors,<br />

as well as entertainment<br />

options.<br />

“I think people like to<br />

see what the vendors have<br />

to offer,” Warthen said.<br />

“It’s a great opportunity,<br />

because we have an entire<br />

stage of cooking demos,<br />

which is back again this<br />

LADY – A WOMEN’S EXPO: FOUR HACKS TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR VISIT<br />

JON DEPAOLIS<br />

Freelance Reporter<br />

A lot of people will be<br />

strolling through the<br />

aisles Saturday, April 21,<br />

for the fifth annual <strong>Lady</strong><br />

– A Women’s Expo. We<br />

asked Heather Warthen,<br />

22nd Century Media’s<br />

chief events officer and<br />

resident expert expo<br />

authority, for some<br />

“hacks” for those who<br />

plan to attend, so they<br />

can make best use of<br />

their time there.<br />

1. Scout ahead: Take a<br />

look at the event’s<br />

Eventbrite webpage<br />

before you head to<br />

the convention center.<br />

It will have the full<br />

list of vendors, an<br />

event schedule for<br />

the fitness classes,<br />

year. We have some great<br />

local chefs, and you can<br />

pick up some new cooking<br />

tips. I know that was a<br />

huge draw last year.”<br />

She also pointed to the<br />

main stage attractions,<br />

such as Danni Allen —<br />

the winner of Season 14<br />

of “The Biggest Loser”<br />

— and plenty free fitness<br />

classes, including cardio<br />

and yoga.<br />

Also returning to the<br />

expo this year is Silk Avenue,<br />

from whom attendees<br />

can purchase custommade<br />

scarves.<br />

“We’ve got something<br />

for everybody,” Warthen<br />

said. “There’s plenty to<br />

do, and I think people<br />

cooking demos<br />

and main stage<br />

entertainment. Map<br />

out some things you<br />

definitely want to do<br />

and save yourself<br />

some idle time.<br />

2. Arrive early to get<br />

some swag: Have<br />

you ever heard the<br />

expression, “The early<br />

bird gets the worm?”<br />

Well, in this case,<br />

early arrivers have<br />

the best chance at<br />

receiving a free gift<br />

bag. There only are<br />

500 of these bad<br />

boys, so the closer you<br />

arrive to 9 a.m., the<br />

better your chance to<br />

pick one up.<br />

3. Be a trendsetter;<br />

go against the flow:<br />

Warthen says that<br />

oftentimes, expogoers<br />

tend to follow a<br />

similar path through<br />

the aisles, leading to<br />

some congestion at<br />

certain spots. One way<br />

to avoid that? Be a<br />

trailblazer and walk in<br />

the opposite direction,<br />

by working from the<br />

back to the front.<br />

4. Don’t be a hero,<br />

choose comfort<br />

over style: If those<br />

boots aren’t made<br />

for walking, leave<br />

them at home.<br />

With approximately<br />

100 vendors and<br />

some serious<br />

entertainment,<br />

odds are your daily<br />

step count is going<br />

to exceed your<br />

goal. Wear some<br />

comfortable shoes.<br />

like seeing the variety of<br />

vendors we get. It’s not all<br />

clothing or food or home<br />

remodeling or repairs; we<br />

really do try to bring in<br />

a variety that people will<br />

enjoy.”<br />

New this year will be<br />

Tracy DeGraaf, who authored<br />

the 2010 book,<br />

“Laugh Anyway Mom:<br />

Hilarious Survival Stories<br />

From a Mother of Five<br />

Who Has Learned How<br />

to Keep the Joy in Motherhood<br />

and How You Can<br />

Too.”<br />

Also new this year will<br />

be a couple of mobile<br />

boutiques, such as Coash<br />

Clothing Company and<br />

Three B’s Mobile Boutique.<br />

LifeSource also will<br />

be sponsoring blood and<br />

bone marrow drives during<br />

the expo. Appointments<br />

may be made in<br />

advance by calling (877)<br />

543-3768 or visiting<br />

www.LifeSource.org.<br />

Free gift bags also will<br />

be given to the first 500<br />

people through the doors.<br />

UChicago Medicine Ingalls Memorial<br />

helps nurse through knee replacement<br />

Katherine Krol is a lady who<br />

doesn’t have much time to put up<br />

her feet. She keeps an eye on her<br />

92-year-old mother and keeps in<br />

touch with the activities of her<br />

sister, her adult children and four<br />

grandchildren regularly.<br />

Recently widowed, Katherine<br />

also works as a registered nurse.<br />

So, when her right knee started<br />

hurting nine years ago, she powered<br />

through the pain and sought<br />

some initial treatment, but the<br />

pain returned and was soon intolerable.<br />

“Every time I walked, I had<br />

pain,” Katherine said.<br />

It hurt to walk down the hallway<br />

when her patients needed<br />

something and when her grandkids<br />

would say, ‘Nana, come do<br />

this,’ she couldn’t.<br />

A friend recommended Phil<br />

Nigro, MD, an orthopedic surgeon<br />

with offices in Tinley Park,<br />

Flossmoor and Calumet City, all<br />

affiliated with UChicago Medicine<br />

Ingalls Memorial. Dr. Nigro<br />

performed her friend’s knee<br />

replacement and she loved his<br />

bedside manner.<br />

Dr. Nigro said Katherine’s<br />

knee was bone-on-bone, meaning<br />

the cartilage had completely<br />

worn away between the bone<br />

ends. Katherine was ready to get<br />

the problem solved.<br />

She had knee replacement surgery<br />

in November, in a procedure<br />

called kinematic alignment,<br />

which Dr. Nigro brought into his<br />

practice in the last two years. It<br />

allows the knee joint bones to be<br />

resurfaced without cutting ligaments<br />

around the knee.<br />

“This is a more natural knee<br />

replacement that allows people<br />

to recover more quickly,” Dr.<br />

Nigro said.<br />

Katherine went into surgery<br />

prep at 7 a.m. and was back in<br />

her room by 10 a.m. “They had<br />

me up and walking at 2:30,” she<br />

said.<br />

Dr. Nigro released Katherine<br />

the next day. Though she wasn’t<br />

able to host Thanksgiving, she<br />

gave up her walker the very next<br />

day, urged by her daughter.<br />

“I needed that scolding,” she<br />

said. “It was scary.”<br />

The first day back at work<br />

Katherine parked on the garage’s<br />

second floor. She cringed, remembering<br />

the pain she used<br />

to have climbing the stairs. Not<br />

anymore, though.<br />

“It was so nice not to have any<br />

pain,” she said.<br />

Dr. Finkelstein provides estrogen-free vaginal restoration<br />

To many women, natural is<br />

better.<br />

We are buying more foods free<br />

of chemicals and pesticides, skincare<br />

products free of synthetic<br />

fragrances and cleaning supplies<br />

without phthalates. This belief<br />

also translates to how women<br />

care for themselves post-menopause.<br />

Women are looking for<br />

safe, natural ways to combat the<br />

effects of their changing bodies.<br />

For anyone who has been<br />

through it, menopause has many<br />

side effects. Some are commonly<br />

discussed, such as hot flashes,<br />

changes in mood and night<br />

sweats. One of the most common<br />

side effects isn’t being discussed<br />

enough, and that is vaginal atrophy.<br />

Vaginal atrophy is vaginal<br />

dryness, itching, burning and<br />

pain with intercourse. According<br />

to the American Academy of<br />

Family Physicians, up to 40 percent<br />

of post-menopausal women<br />

have atrophic vaginitis or vaginal<br />

atrophy. With nearly 64 million<br />

post-menopausal patients,<br />

many women are suffering.<br />

“These symptoms greatly impact<br />

a woman’s quality of life,”<br />

said Dr. Kenneth Finkelstein,<br />

founder of Women’s Healthcare<br />

of Illinois in Mokena and Evergreen<br />

Park. “As someone who<br />

has taken care of women for over<br />

twenty years, I have watched<br />

countless patients live with discomfort<br />

and struggle with intimacy;<br />

it’s unacceptable. Many<br />

women don’t want to or cannot<br />

use estrogen creams. Now there<br />

is a natural, FDA-approved treatment<br />

for vaginal atrophy.<br />

Vaginal restoration performed<br />

at Women’s Healthcare of Illinois,<br />

is an estrogen-free treatment<br />

for vaginal atrophy. Performed<br />

in the office, without<br />

the need for anesthesia and with<br />

virtually no pain or side effects,<br />

a gentle fractional CO2 laser restores<br />

vaginal health by generat-<br />

Meet ourproviders<br />

ing new collagen and elastin in<br />

the vaginal wall tissue. There<br />

are three treatments spaced six<br />

weeks apart, and each treatment<br />

is less than five minutes.<br />

“After living with vaginal atrophy<br />

for nearly three decades<br />

due to a hysterectomy with a<br />

bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy,<br />

(removal of the uterus, fallopian<br />

tubes and ovaries) in my<br />

mid 30s, I had all but given up<br />

on pain-free intimacy with my<br />

husband,” said Susan Schreffler,<br />

a patient of Dr. Finkelstein.<br />

“I have a history of breast cancer<br />

in my family, and I decided<br />

estrogen cream was not an option<br />

for me. I only wanted a hormonefree<br />

treatment. I had little to lose<br />

and scheduled a free consultation<br />

with Dr. Finkelstein. During<br />

the appointment, Dr. Finkelstein<br />

answered all my questions and<br />

made me feel comfortable. I decided<br />

to get my first treatment at<br />

my consultation. I was amazed<br />

by the results. After my first treatment<br />

I felt relief. I have now<br />

completed all three treatments<br />

and I can say for the first time in<br />

30 years I am not suffering from<br />

vaginal atrophy.”<br />

“Unlike hot flashes, insomnia<br />

and night sweats, vaginal atrophy<br />

remains after a women’s<br />

transition through menopause is<br />

complete. It is gratifying to offer<br />

patients a natural, hormone-free<br />

solution,” Dr. Finkelstein added.<br />

Ask Cary: Parenting parents with Alzheimer’s<br />

Here’s a question:<br />

Gradually I’m becoming<br />

a parent for my parent; is<br />

it normal to feel anxious<br />

and overwhelmed?<br />

The answer? Yes, it’s<br />

very normal to be anxious,<br />

feel guilty and feel<br />

overwhelmed. In this<br />

new role you will have<br />

many feelings that you<br />

will work through. Many<br />

families find it helpful to<br />

seek support, education<br />

and sharing with others<br />

in the same situation.<br />

This is a journey that<br />

will evolve and change<br />

day to day as the disease<br />

progresses. You are joining<br />

your parent on this<br />

journey and the more you<br />

understand it the easier it<br />

will be, not only for yourself<br />

but for your loved<br />

one as well.<br />

Please know that I am<br />

available as a resource<br />

for you personally and<br />

professionally, now and/<br />

or in the future.<br />

TheraCORE Physical<br />

Therapy seeks a personalized,<br />

comforting patient experience<br />

Do people know they have a choice<br />

where they can attend physical therapy?<br />

Doctors refer their patients every day to outpatient<br />

physical therapy for musculoskeletal<br />

injuries, aches and pains, balance deficits<br />

and even vestibular issues. Most of the time<br />

patients assume they have to go to the physical<br />

therapist clinic in the doctor’s building<br />

or the clinic closest to home. There is a wide<br />

variety of care available from physicianowned<br />

clinics to large corporate chains to<br />

private physical therapist-owned clinics.<br />

There is a choice! Choosing the right<br />

physical therapist is critical to recovery.<br />

It may be helpful to seek referrals from<br />

friends or family members that have had<br />

successful outcomes. Word of mouth referrals<br />

are sometimes the best.<br />

People should spend at least one hour a<br />

visit with a physical therapist two to three<br />

times per week. Personality is important!<br />

People want a physical therapist with<br />

whom they can clearly communicate, one<br />

who spends quality time with them and<br />

pushes them to achieve their goals. Feel<br />

free to interview the physical therapist prior<br />

to the first visit to see if you are a match.<br />

Credentials are equally important.<br />

Make sure a licensed physical therapist<br />

is doing the treatment and use the same<br />

therapist each visit to ensure quality care.<br />

Many physical therapists can specialize<br />

through continuing education in a variety<br />

of services and can be board certified<br />

in orthopedics, sports, and neurology, to<br />

name a few. Always question what the<br />

physical therapist’s experience level is<br />

when it comes to a specific injury.<br />

Ask what insurances are not only “accephysical<br />

therapisted” but in-network<br />

with the company. People should ask for<br />

their benefits to be fully explained and<br />

in writing before beginning treatment. If<br />

one’s insurance has a high out-of-pocket<br />

cost, ask if there are self-pay rates available.<br />

People don’t want to be stuck with a<br />

surprise bill.<br />

Doing a little research before beginning<br />

treatment can lead to a faster road to recovery<br />

and a better overall outcome. Successful<br />

physical therapy can help avoid surgery<br />

and prevent future injury.<br />

“It’s your physical therapy, it’s your<br />

decision has” been our motto since we<br />

opened 10 years ago. TheraCORE strives<br />

to provide the best personalized experience<br />

for our patients in an environment<br />

that encourages overall wellness. The<br />

next time physical therapy services are<br />

needed, choose TheraCORE and let us<br />

prove how we stand apart.<br />

Jack Gibbons Gardens all about traditions, not trends<br />

Jack Gibbons Gardens<br />

does not follow trends.<br />

Diners are not going<br />

to witness Happy Hours<br />

or Margarita Mondays at<br />

Jack Gibbons.<br />

That is because Jack<br />

Gibbons focuses on what<br />

really matters: great food<br />

and even better company.<br />

The restaurant reportedly<br />

has customers who say<br />

they have not been there<br />

for 25-30 years but come<br />

back and it is just the way<br />

they remember it.<br />

Jack Gibbons Gardens<br />

— or Gibbons, as the<br />

regulars call it — opened<br />

in 1922 as a speakeasy.<br />

Although times have<br />

changed drastically since<br />

then, the restaurant itself<br />

has not. From the<br />

red leather booths to the<br />

wood-paneled walls, Jack<br />

Gibbons is truly timeless.<br />

In a time where chain<br />

restaurants are on every<br />

corner, Gibbons has become<br />

even more special<br />

and unique. From the second<br />

a diner sits and is instantly<br />

delivered delicious<br />

warm bread, three-bean<br />

salad and coleslaw, before<br />

even a glance at the menu,<br />

it is easy to know one is<br />

about to have one of the<br />

Celebrate Mother’s Day at Gibbons Sunday May 13 th<br />

STEAKS • CHOPS•PRIME RIB<br />

SEAFOOD•CHICKEN•RIBS<br />

best meals of his or her<br />

life. From surf and turf to<br />

fried chicken, Gibbons has<br />

something to satisfy any<br />

craving.<br />

Gibbons has been described<br />

as a “generational<br />

place” that sees everyone<br />

from grandfathers and fathers<br />

to their grandchildren<br />

who dine there.<br />

A secret to that success<br />

is that the restaurant’s staff<br />

does not experience the<br />

type of turnover seen in<br />

some chain restaurants. Its<br />

employees have worked<br />

there for years, striving<br />

for a “Cheers” vibe<br />

with which the bartender<br />

knows the customers,<br />

what they’re having, and<br />

the friends they bring with<br />

them.<br />

22ND CENTURY MEDIA | April 19, 2018 | 19<br />

Planet Fitness offers judgement-free, quality<br />

workout environment at an affordable price<br />

We at Planet Fitness are<br />

here to provide a unique<br />

environment in which<br />

anyone — and we mean<br />

anyone — can be comfortable.<br />

We offer a diverse,<br />

judgment-free zone where<br />

a lasting, active lifestyle<br />

can be built. Our product<br />

is a tool, a means to an<br />

end; not a brand name or a<br />

mold-maker, but a tool that<br />

ALL Women.<br />

Try us Today!<br />

can be used by anyone. In<br />

the end, it’s all about you.<br />

As we evolve and educate<br />

ourselves, we will see to<br />

perfect safe, energetic environment,<br />

where everyone<br />

feels accepted and respected.<br />

We are not here to<br />

kiss your butt, only to kick<br />

it if that’s what you need.<br />

So, make yourself comfy.<br />

Because we’re judgment<br />

free. It doesn’t matter<br />

if your legs have never<br />

seen a squat machine before.<br />

We believe how you<br />

work out is totally up to<br />

you. Take advantage of our<br />

unlimited fitness training<br />

programs or just do your<br />

own thing on the treadmill.<br />

We’ll cheer you on either<br />

way — if you’re in our<br />

house you deserve a little<br />

cred just for being here.<br />

We believe no one should<br />

ever feel Gym-timidated<br />

by lunky behavior and that<br />

everyone should feel at<br />

ease in our gyms, no matter<br />

what his or her workout<br />

goals are. And everyone<br />

should have access to lots<br />

of nice new equipment and<br />

feel comfortable asking for<br />

help. With all of these great<br />

benefits under one roof, we<br />

like to say: “We’re not a<br />

gym. We’re Planet Fitness.<br />

The Judgment Free Zone.”<br />

Planet Fitness is known<br />

for a lot of things — our<br />

low prices (and all the stuff<br />

you get for those low prices),<br />

our Lunk Alarm, and of<br />

course, our judgment-free<br />

zone. We’re fiercely protective<br />

of our Planet and<br />

the rights of our members<br />

to feel like they belong. So,<br />

we create an environment<br />

where you can relax, go<br />

at your own pace and just<br />

do your own thing without<br />

ever having to worry about<br />

being judged. This is your<br />

Planet. You belong.<br />
