Like never before, we are all having to create a bunch of new habits — food habits, stress reduction habits, health habits — as life gets upended and anxiety and stress overwhelm us.

SILICON VALLEY, Calif. (PRWEB)
April 16, 2020

Fresh Tri®, Inc., a fast-growth science-based technology platform, announced today that it is providing free access to resources that help individuals and organizations cope better and strengthen their health and well-being in response to the global COVID-19 crisis.

The company has adapted its mobile app, also called Fresh Tri, to add an integrated set of habits users can practice to specifically manage COVID-19-related issues. The Fresh Tri app was developed in conjunction with Walmart to help users lose weight and adopt healthy eating habits. Now, Fresh Tri is leveraging its Iterative Mindset™ behavior change methodology to offer habit practices around grocery shopping and storage, physical and mental health, sleep hygiene, healthy eating, sanitization, virtual living and workplace wellness. These new habits address significant disruptions to daily life by grounding users in new daily practices that are relevant and current to quickly build their new norms.

Fresh Tri’s in-app solutions also include live-streamed and on-demand, dietician- and physician-led mindset videos that deliver relevant, timely tips, habits and hacks to equip users with the tools they need to solve problems most efficiently in this new reality.

The new habit practices and the mindset videos are available in the free version of Fresh Tri, available in the App Store and GooglePlay.

In addition to these changes to the app, Fresh Tri is hosting a free webinar called “A New Normal” on April 21st, 9 a.m. PST / 12 p.m. EST, for health and well-being leaders to empower them with behavioral science insights and methods that support their employees in ways that meet this rapid change and emotional upheaval.

Finally, Fresh Tri is providing free access to its “Dr. Kyra Show: COVID-19 Leadership Series,” with Fresh Tri president CEO Kyra Bobinet, MD, MPH. In these short, weekly videos, Bobinet will review current events surrounding the pandemic and provide strategic insight on leadership and well-being that are essential to success right now.

“Like never before, we are all having to create a bunch of new habits — food habits, stress reduction habits, health habits — as life gets upended and anxiety and stress overwhelm us,” says Bobinet. “Our goal is to train people in the Iterative Mindset™ — a resilience-building behavior change method — that entails trying new behaviors and adapting them to your life. This specialized mindset has been proven to drive significant physical and emotional health outcomes in our research and studies. The Fresh Tri approach to helping people develop this mindset is unique but natural — based on how your brain changes your behavior.”

We recognize that we are part of a larger family and community. We believe that we can make the greatest positive impact by doing what we do best – serving our communities through our clubs.” – Blake Walker, Founder and CEO of Arcis Golf

DALLAS (PRWEB)
April 15, 2020

Arcis Golf has pledged the support of its 61 clubs in 13 states, taking a significant leadership role in a new nationwide initiative, ClubsHELP.

Formed less than a week ago during the national health crisis, ClubsHELP connects golf clubs with hospitals in their local areas. Arcis Golf was among the first golf management companies to step up and access its extensive club network and key vendors to provide critically needed support to fight the Covid-19 pandemic.

“First of all, I want to say how grateful I am for the heroic frontline responders who are serving our local communities,” said Blake Walker, Founder and CEO of Arcis Golf, the second largest owner and operator of private, resort and daily fee clubs in the U.S. “Their valuable role during this time of crisis and their attention to human welfare is critical to the wellness of our citizens. We recognize that we are part of a larger family and community. We believe that we can make the greatest positive impact by doing what we do best – serving our communities through our clubs.”

This is how the new initiative works:

-A member or the management of each Arcis club will take on the role of captain.

-The club then ‘adopts’ or is matched with a local hospital.

-Working cooperatively, the most pressing needs at the hospital are identified, then clubs, companies, and individual donors pitch in to gather, collect, and deliver the most necessary items and resources to be used by hospital workers.

At this time, the greatest needs are basic food items that can be consumed quickly, PPE supplies, UV lighting for sterilization of phones and keys, and delivery services. Additionally, utilizing untapped commercial resources, raising money, or mobilizing a local delivery service are examples of ways that clubs are supporting local hospitals.

On an ongoing basis every Arcis property engages with its local community by donating rounds and amenities, holding tournaments and events that raise money for charities.

“During these unprecedented times, and with the health and safety of our members, guests and staff on our minds, we simply felt a calling that we needed to do more. Our club leaders are empowered to work side-by-side with their members and patrons to be part of something really special and to engage within their communities to make a real difference,” said Walker.

In fact, it was based on Arcis Golf’s past working relationship with, and corporate-wide support of, the Els for Autism Foundation that Walker and Chief Marketing Officer Chris Crocker first became aware of the opportunity to utilize their clubs to support this new national program.

“When Ernie Els’ manager called, we said, ‘count us in.’ Every community wants to sustain their local hospital and first responders,” noted Crocker. “We know that strength in numbers—clubs and their members’ networks—will make a meaningful impact to those bravely fighting the virus, with grit and grace, from the frontlines each and every day. Just as Ernie has challenged his fellow golf professionals to step up for this cause, I challenge golf clubs across the nation to embrace and support ClubsHELP.”

Golf’s premier organizations, including the National Club Association, and Golf Writers Association of America, have pledged to get behind the ClubsHELP program and make a significant difference in local communities throughout the United States. Additionally, the American Hospital Association (AHA) and the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) have alerted their membership that golf clubs across the country are activating.

West Medical provides vein therapy and weight loss procedures at locations Southern California.

There’s no reason for individuals struggling with varicose veins to remain in pain and/or embarrassment as there are a variety of treatment options available.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
April 15, 2020

A March 16 article on Allure reports on the different ways to treat varicose veins, which is a condition where veins become enlarged or swollen due to issues with blood circulation. The article discusses common minimally invasive treatments that are available, such as sclerotherapy or laser. West Medical, a healthcare group based in Southern California, says that while varicose veins may only be a cosmetic issue for some individuals – and that’s problem enough – it may also cause physical discomfort for others. With today’s resources and advances in medical technology, West Medical comments that there’s no reason for individuals struggling with varicose veins to remain in pain and/or embarrassment as there are a variety of treatment options available.

West Medical says that the simplest method for varicose veins is through the use of compression stockings, which are intended to improve the circulation of blood flow by adding pressure to the veins. With improved circulation, the sometimes painful condition may improve without any further treatment but the cosmetic benefit may be somewhat variable. The Orange County medical group notes that this home treatment is often useful for individuals with minor cases though, or it can at least serve as a temporary solution that may slow down the progression of the issue before medical treatment is sought. While this is an easy home remedy, the clinic notes that this treatment leaves enlarged veins intact.

West Medical says that a more effective and preferred treatment for varicose vein treatment is by targeting veins via endovenous laser treatment (EVLT). This method involves inserting a small laser fiber into the problem vein with ultrasound and allowing the laser to close the vein through the generated heat. The healthcare group notes that this technique only requires a local anesthetic and can be done in one of its offices. The office notes that the EVLT is very minimally invasive, which means less downtime needed for recovery and quicker healing.

The health group notes that because there are different kinds of varicose veins, each varying in severity, it recommends individuals who are seeking out treatment options consult with a physician for the best solution for their situation. Each individual’s case is unique, and a doctor will be able to determine which varicose vein treatment will be the most effective for each patient’s particular circumstance.
