New Hanover Regional Medical Center Goes Live with Gozio Health’s Mobile Wayfinding Platform


News Image

Gozio is pleased to partner with the largest healthcare provider in southeastern North Carolina and assist them with leading their community to outstanding health. Joshua Titus, CEO and Founder Gozio Health.

New Hanover Regional Medical Center (NHRMC) announced the launch of their mobile wayfinding platform developed by Atlanta-based Gozio Health. The hospital-branded mobile platform provides system-wide navigation guiding patients from their home to the correct parking location and within four feet of their appointment destination inside the hospital.

The platform also gives patients and visitors immediate access to physician directories, medical records via MyChart, Urgent Care wait times, and locations of cafes, pharmacies and the closest restrooms on their smartphones. The platform provides turn-by-turn navigation inside six New Hanover hospital and healthcare facilities. New Hanover is also including access to 58 off-site clinics.

“Gozio is pleased to partner with the largest healthcare provider in southeastern North Carolina and assist them with fulfilling their mission of leading their community to outstanding health,” said Joshua Titus, CEO and Founder Gozio Health. “Hospitals that prioritize a patient-centric approach to care recognize how Gozio’s customizable platform directly improves in network retention, attracts new patients, and positively impacts the healthcare system’s bottom line.”

Gozio Health hospital partners see significant rates of patient engagement from their mobile wayfinding platforms. Statistics based on adult, university and children’s hospital systems show that once the app is installed to navigate to a destination within the hospital system, over 85 percent of users return to schedule appointments, access medical records, search physician directories; access urgent care wait times and view hospital amenities.

Gozio Health

Gozio Health transforms indoor navigation and significantly improves patient experience with an experiential wayfinding platform specifically designed for hospitals and healthcare systems. Gozio’s feature-rich, mobile platform revolutionizes patient engagement and not only puts patients and visitors on the best path to their destination, it gives the provider organization an important pathway to the patient. Gozio’s platform optimizes the patient journey beyond wayfinding with API integrations of EHR, urgent care and emergency department wait times, Save My Spot scheduling for urgent care, virtual visits, and more. In addition to numerous industry awards, the wayfinding solution from Gozio has earned the exclusive endorsement of the American Hospital Association.

Modere Inside-Out Beauty System Delivers 360°, Scientifically Advanced Approach to Natural Radiance


https://www.prweb.com/

CellProof Essentials Collection

The Modere® Inside-Out Beauty System combines the company’s patented, award-winning collagen/HA nutraceutical Liquid BioCell® with the CellProof® Essentials Collection, a new trio of topical skincare essentials designed to augment the company’s recent viral hit, CellProof™ Serum.

On Saturday, September 21, Modere®, a healthy, safe and clean-lifestyle brand of dietary supplements, household and personal-care products with a presence worldwide, announced the North American launch of the Modere® Inside-Out Beauty System at their Fall Summit in Orlando, Florida. The Modere® Inside-Out Beauty System combines the company’s patented, award-winning collagen/HA nutraceutical Liquid BioCell® with the CellProof® Essentials Collection, a new trio of topical skincare essentials designed to augment the company’s recent viral hit, CellProof™ Serum.

The Modere ® CellProof™ Essentials Collection is comprised of CellProof™ Serum, CellProof™ Moisturizer, and CellProof™ Infusion Mask. CellProof™ Serum is an age-defying formula powered by BioCell Collagen® CG, recipient of the Frost & Sullivan Award for Best Collagen Peptide in Personal Care, and is backed by multi-patented Collagen/HA Matrix® Technology, a natural matrix of collagen peptides and hyaluronic acid that is Bio-Optimized™ for maximum effectiveness. The cosmetic-grade technology is combined in CellProof™ Serum with a potent botanical complex and Vitamin C to hydrate, firm, and visibly lift the appearance of dull, dry skin in minutes.

CellProof™ Moisturizer also delivers BioCell Collagen® CG to the skin to hydrate and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Furthermore, the nourishing formula provides the naturally derived antioxidant astaxanthin, a blend of advanced peptides, Vitamin C, and exotic fruit extracts to support healthy-looking skin and a more even skin tone. Decadent cocoa and shea butter leave skin exceptionally smooth, intensely hydrated, and velvety soft.

CellProof™ Infusion mask, which rounds out the collection, is curated with skin-reviving ingredients such as Ox3™, a proprietary compound that releases oxygen bubbles on contact to waken the skin and make way for two rare botanical extracts, Snow Algae and Summer Snowflake Bulb, to renew the skin. Snow Algae and Summer Snowflake work in tandem to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving skin a fresh, vibrant look.

In an ultimate, 360° approach to radiant, youthful-looking skin, Modere has magnified the power of its beauty-boosting, award-winning, patented Collagen/HA Matrix® Technology by pairing the new, topical CellProof™ Essentials Collection with its internally nourishing Liquid BioCell® supplement line. Consumers can choose to complement their skincare regimen with any of Modere’s four Liquid BioCell® supplements, Liquid BioCell® Life, Pure, Skin, or Sport. All four products are scientifically shown to deliver Collagen/HA Matrix® Technology to the skin and connective tissues in an ideal molecular weight that the body can effectively absorb. Their individual formulas differ according to the conditions they are designed to target. Liquid BioCell® Life mitigates the joint discomfort and visible signs of advancing age; Liquid BioCell® Pure, Life’s sister supplement, meets the need of consumers with dietary restrictions; ingredients in Liquid BioCell® Skin bolster the benefits for lustrous, unlined skin; and Liquid BioCell® Sport contains NSF certified factors like BCAAs, L-carnitine, and Rhodiola and astragalus extracts to support optimal physical and mental performance.

Asma Ishaq, CEO of Modere, was on hand at the company’s North America Fall Summit to announce the launch: “Beauty is an inside job, a job our ingestible super nutraceutical, Liquid BioCell, does exceedingly well. Sometimes, though, we want to boost that inner shine. The Modere Inside-Out Beauty System does just that by pairing Liquid BioCell with the new CellProof Essentials Collection in an exclusive 360° approach.”

Workout Anytime Celebrates 20 Years in Business by Offering $15,000 Franchise Fee Discount Through End of 2019


Since 1999, Workout Anytime has built a foundation on thinking big, keeping things simple and doing everything with integrity. Today, the fitness franchise brand has more than 175 clubs nationwide and ambitious plans for expansion. To mark its 20th year in business, Workout Anytime is reducing the $35,000 franchise fee down to $20,000 through the end of 2019.

Major accomplishments for the Workout Anytime brand over the years include meeting and surpassing the 100-unit mark, expanding throughout the United States and putting together a stellar executive team that includes COO Mark de Gorter, former CEO of Power Plate. Now, the brand is focused on growing even more, with plans to surpass the 500-unit mark over the next couple of years while still ensuring optimum quality and supporting franchisees.

“We have a strong system and we want to build successful franchises that are profitable,” said Workout Anytime President John Quattrocchi. “I see us going worldwide. In order for that to happen, we need to take on partners who understand this. In 10 to 15 years, Workout Anytime will be in the realm of 3,000-plus locations.”

Workout Anytime is currently targeting several Georgia cities for expansion and also wants to grow in key markets including Arizona, Florida, Virginia and Texas. Workout Anytime is also seeking franchisees in Arkansas, Colorado, Indiana, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

Workout Anytime got its start when CEO Steve Strickland and Quattrocchi brought together their respective experiences in the fitness industry. Quattrocchi owned a fitness center and partnered with Strickland, who sold athletic equipment.

“The Workout Anytime team is extremely thankful for the success our brand has had throughout the years,” said Quattrocchi. “We feel as if Workout Anytime is a gift that was given to us. For us, Workout Anytime was a culmination of both of our experiences. Plus, the time was right for a 24-hour club with access. What we tried to do was make it the best workout per square foot and we succeeded. The reception we first had in 1999 was excellent and we continue to have a positive response today.”

The brand took things to the next level in 2005 when Senior Vice President of Development Randy Trotter came on board to help Workout Anytime expand its franchise offering.

“We were fortunate to team up with Randy Trotter, who sold franchises before and is still having fun selling franchises for Workout Anytime,” Quattrocchi said. “Setting up a franchise system was a lot of hard work and today we are enjoying the fruits of our labor. We teach our franchisees everything we’ve learned since the beginning. Ultimately, Workout Anytime is not just about selling memberships—it’s about putting customers first and helping our franchisees become profitable.”

Embr Labs To Accelerate Expansion into Wellness and Digital Therapeutics with $6M In Series B Financing


News Image

With the backing and expertise of the new and existing investors, we have the potential to improve our technology to substantially impact lives. The Series B funding will accelerate the development of our core technology platform and help us realize our thermal wellness vision.

Embr Labs, the breakthrough thermal technology company and creator of the Wave bracelet, today announced $6M in Series B funding led by DigiTx Partners, with participation from Safar Partners, Joyance Partners, Bose Ventures, and PBJ Capital. Embr Labs will use the investment to grow the company’s footprint in wellness and digital therapeutics, accelerate development for the next generation of its core technology platform, and validate new use cases in thermal wellness.

Since the launch of the Wave bracelet in September 2017, Embr has sold tens of thousands of devices to those who desired to harness the restorative power of temperature. Founded by three engineers in a cold lab at MIT, Embr Labs started with a basic insight: temperature impacts the way we feel and if temperature can be personalized and delivered in new formats, then it unlocks the therapeutic power. Embr Labs’ patented technology harnesses the power of thermal sensations to deliver safe, non-invasive, and natural therapies that leverage the body and mind’s natural response to temperature to promote relief from hot flashes, manage stress, and enhance sleep.

Embr Labs’ flagship product, the Wave bracelet, features Embr Labs’ core innovation, its patented thermal waveforms – dynamic temperature sensations that cool or warm temperature-sensitive nerves with algorithmically-designed waves. This technological breakthrough is what makes cooling in a small wearable device possible while reducing power consumption and system size.

“Embr Labs is not only a commercial company defining Thermal Wellness, but also a digital health company with great potential to substantially impact several therapeutic areas,” said David Kim, M.D., Managing Director of DigiTx Partners. “Moreover, significant real-world evidence can be captured through the Wave devices, which would lead to more personalized and optimal therapy for the users.”

“There are over 330 million women affected by hot flashes, 2.5 billion people dealing with stress-related issues and 1.5 billion people experience sleep discomfort,” said Elizabeth Gazda, Embr Labs CEO. “With the backing and expertise of the new and existing investors, we have the potential to improve our technology to substantially impact lives. The Series B funding will accelerate the development of our core technology platform and help us realize our thermal wellness vision.”

Along with the funding, Embr Labs is rebranding to align the company’s design and tone with its new thermal wellness ethos. Built upon two foundational pillars: Care for People and Scientific Rigor – the new design highlights the company’s focus on using thermal science to improve self-care. The Embr Labs name, which stands for Environment-Mind-Body-Resonance, remains unchanged. The new brand identity rolls out today across the company website, packaging, and mobile app.

For more information, please contact Jeannine Jacobi at (323) 903-7063 or press@embrlabs.com, or visit the new embrlabs.com

About Embr Labs

Embr Labs is the first thermal wellness technology company and maker of the Wave, an intelligent bracelet that helps you feel colder or warmer by 5ºF. Despite only being sold in the United States, the Wave is being used in over 140 countries. The company’s patented technology harnesses the power of thermal sensations to deliver a brand new category of safe, non-invasive, and natural therapies that leverage the body and mind’s natural response to temperature to help people feel more comfortable, fall asleep faster, and be less stressed. Embr Labs was founded by MIT-trained engineers and is backed by investors including DigiTx Partners, Bose Ventures and Joyance Partners.

About DigiTx Partners

DigiTx Partners is a venture firm exclusively focused on investing in and supporting early-stage startup companies in the digital health space.

Bubba’s Fine Foods New Bold Flavor to Rival a Snack Classic


News Image

“The data was all there at our fingertips: people love sea salt!” – Jeff Schmidgal, Bubba’s CEO and co-founder

The paleo snack brand Bubba’s Fine Foods is putting the ubiquitous potato chip in its place with the launch of Classic Sea Salt ‘Nana Chips, hitting shelves in October 2019.

“The data was all there at our fingertips: people love sea salt!” explained Bubba’s CEO and co-founder Jeff Schmidgal. “Our preference for big, bold flavors prevented us from even contemplating a ‘sea salt’ flavor, but the sales numbers have shown something far different. All of our retailers are going to want to add this one to their lineup.”

Four Ingredients—Bubba’s new flavor is created with only four real food ingredients. Nutrient-rich green Saba bananas are cooked crisp and crunchy in coconut oil, to deliver that addictive potato chip crunch without the guilt. The crisps are then polished to perfection with apple cider vinegar and a dash of sea salt, creating Bubba’s Classic Sea Salt ‘Nana Chips.

Bubba’s ‘Nana Chips Collection:

  • Made from low-sugar, green Saba bananas for that perfect starchy crunch without the sweet banana flavor
  • Packed with vitamins, minerals, and prebiotics for gut health
  • Doused in nutrient-dense coconut oil and bold, natural seasonings
  • Kettle cooked for that classic crunch
  • Paleo-approved
  • Grain-free, gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free
  • Free of refined sugars and artificial flavorings
  • Project Verified Non-GMO
  • Made in America in the heart of Loveland, Colorado


The new Classic Sea Salt ‘Nana Chips will be available online by the end of the month and will hit stores by October 15, 2019.

‘Nana Chips are available in other finger-licking flavors, including Not-Cho Nacho, Blazing Buffalo, and Grand Garlic Parm.

Available for purchase at http://www.bubbasfoods.com, Amazon, Natural Grocers, Whole Foods, Fresh Market, King Soopers, and select retailers nationwide.

SLCC Offers New Fitness Degree, Easing Path to Four-Year Schools


SLCC offers new fitness degree, new courses.

SLCC offers new fitness degree, new courses.

The goal is to accommodate the many students, about 75%, in our program who want to work in the industry while going for their bachelor’s degree.

Students at Salt Lake Community College now have a new path to a four-year degree in fitness. SLCC added an Associate of Science degree in Exercise Science/Kinesiology as well as several exercise science courses. The new offerings will prepare students for seamless transfer to four-year degree programs at the University of Utah and other state schools.

The new degree and new courses, which include Intro to Exercise Science, Sport and American Society, and Special Topics in Exercise Science, are designed to complement the college’s existing Associate of Applied Science degree in the Fitness Technician program. Now, students who want to gain industry experience while seeking an undergraduate degree in Exercise Science will be able to enter the workforce more quickly by earning the Fitness Technician degree, and some of the credits in that program will fulfill the requirements for the Exercise Science/Kinesiology degree.

Nathan Thomas, associate dean for the Department of Exercise Science, said the added courses and new degree option are more in line with programs offered at other local and national higher education institutions.

“The goal is to accommodate the many students, about 75%, in our program who want to work in the industry while going for their bachelor’s degree,” said Nathan Thomas, associate dean for the school’s Department of Exercise Science.

SLCC worked closely with the University of Utah and other state schools to ensure the changes accommodate a seamless transition to four-year degree programs. The changes at SLCC prepare students for careers and transfer pathways in exercise science and kinesiology, the study of human movement. These new offerings started in August.

Salt Lake Community College is Utah’s largest two-year higher education institution. The college is Utah’s leading provider of workforce development programs and the largest supplier of transfer students to the state’s four-year institutions. SLCC is also a top 10 college nationally for total associate’s degrees awarded and the leading provider of applied technology courses in Salt Lake County.
