Creekwood Dental Arts Now Offers ClearCorrect Orthodontics in Waco, TX

Depending on your cosmetic goals, we will attentively listen to the results you desire, and together we can determine the best treatment options for you.

Modern dental practice, Creekwood Dental Arts, now offers patients seeking orthodontics the option of ClearCorrect aligners. With these state-of-the-art aligners, patients in Waco, TX can enjoy clear braces without the obvious, and often uncomfortable, metal brackets or wires. ClearCorrect can conveniently straighten misaligned teeth and give patients a smile they can be proud to show off while also improving oral function.

“Cosmetic dentistry can be used to improve the appearance of imperfections in teeth,” said Dr. Michelle Hinds. “Depending on your cosmetic goals, we will attentively listen to the results you desire, and together we can determine the best treatment options for you.”

ClearCorrect, a form of cosmetic and functional dentistry, is an orthodontic treatment that aligns teeth using comfortable, nearly invisible aligners. These aligners are made from durable plastic and are designed to slightly adjust the position of teeth over one or two weeks. After two weeks, the next set of aligners is worn to further adjust the bite. By the end of treatment, patients often experience a straight, beautiful and healthy smile in less time than traditional orthodontics. Additional benefits of ClearCorrect clear braces include:

  • Ability to eat almost any foods
  • Easy to keep teeth and gums clean
  • Minimal chance for breaking
  • Only need to be worn for 20-22 hours a day
  • Comfortable and discreet while being worn

Having straight teeth is more than just a cosmetic benefit. Patients who have severely crooked, gapped or misaligned teeth can suffer from oral and overall health concerns as well. Misaligned teeth can make it more difficult to clean when brushing and flossing, leading to bacteria buildup, cavities and possible gum disease. Additionally, misaligned teeth can affect the bite of a patient, later causing jaw pain or TMJ disorder. ClearCorrect clear braces can give patients a healthy bite by adjusting the position of their teeth to avoid any of these concerns.

Creekwood Dental Arts offers comprehensive dental care ranging from cosmetic dentistry, to functional and restorative care. The practice also offers porcelain veneers and teeth whitening to improve the look of a patient’s smile, while offering complex dental implant and full mouth dental implant solutions for those missing some or all of their teeth. Dentists, Drs. Donna Miller, Michelle Hinds and Austin Green, take a whole-body approach to care and strive to help patients achieve a healthy mouth, which in turn leads to a healthy life.

Clinerion partners with Eugen to expand Patient Network Explorer coverage to patients and hospitals in Uruguay


Our partnership with Clinerion brings to Uruguay and Latin America the new models of clinical trials that use data and artificial intelligence.

MedWand Wins CES 2020 Innovation Awards Honoree in Two Categories


News Image

…MedWand increases the value of any telemedicine video visit by 10x, opening up a world of possibilities in virtual health.

MedWand Solutions, Inc., a global leader in remote diagnostics, is pleased to announce that its remote examination device, MedWand, has been selected as a CES 2020 Innovation Award Honoree in not one, but two categories. Every year the CES Innovations Awards honors outstanding design and engineering in consumer technology products. MedWand was awarded in the categories of “Health & Wellness” and “Tech for a Better World”.

Telehealth is one of the healthcare industry’s fastest-growing segments. With numerous telemedicine services in existence worldwide, most virtual visits are conducted via video with few, if any, examination capabilities. MedWand changes this.

Engineered to allow physical examinations during telemedicine consultations, the MedWand device contains ten diagnostic tools housed within a singular handheld unit that allows patients to be examined remotely over the Internet. The MedWand contains the following instruments:

1.    Stethoscope to listen to heart, lungs, and abdomen

2.    Otoscope for ear exams

3.    Ophthalmoscope for eye exams

4.    Dermatoscope for skin exams

5.    Throat illuminator for oral exams

6.    Pulse oximetry for oxygen levels

7.    Pulse rate

8.    Thermometer

9.    Respiratory rate

10.    EKG

MedWand’s chief engineer and COO, Robert Rose, who was present at the CES Innovation Awards ceremony in New York, says development of MedWand was incredibly complex, but equally rewarding. “It wasn’t easy putting ten medical devices into something the size of a computer mouse that weighs less than 5 ounces, but we did it. Our engineering team did a phenomenal job, and we look forward to showing our technology to the world at CES 2020. We are currently involved in the FDA and CE approval process, with clearance anticipated in Q1 2020.”

MedWand shall be present at CES 2020 alongside several technology partners (Dell, Intel, and Microsoft) this January 7th – 10th in Las Vegas, where MedWand Solutions, Inc. is based. The MedWand booth #44925 can be found in the Sands Main Hall in the Health and Wellness area. Visitors will be able to demo the MedWand device*, see various MedWand system packages, and meet the team members. Free prizes, presentations on the future of medicine, and live MedWand exams** are also planned.

MedWand’s physician-founder and CEO, Samir Qamar, is looking forward to CES 2020. “We are thrilled that CES recognizes the impact MedWand can have on healthcare and the world. Our vision was that patients should have the means to be examined from anywhere, reducing the need to travel for medical visits. With its vast array of diagnostics, MedWand increases the value of any telemedicine video visit by 10x, opening up a world of possibilities in virtual health. If you have the means to help others, wouldn’t you do whatever it takes to do so? This is what MedWand is all about.”

The Disease That Can Change Your Life & Take Your Vision


West Boca Eye Center Brent Bellotte MD

West Boca Eye Center Brent Bellotte MD

For the ultimate diabetic eye-health treatment and preventative management, the advice of leading ophthalmologist Brent Bellotte MD is second to none.

According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), 21.3 million US citizens have been diagnosed with diabetes. Estimates from the CDC state that another 7.2 million are undiagnosed, and an incredible 84.1 million have prediabetes— a pre-cursor to the disease where blood glucose is elevated but not to levels where the condition is diagnosed. With those figures, it’s no wonder the disease is one of the most common online searches when it comes to ill health.

While it’s positive that so many are researching their well-being, the internet minefield contains many inaccuracies. When it comes to illness and disease, such misinformation could influence or prevent people from seeking the correct advice. Leading ophthalmologist in Boca Raton, FL, Brent Bellotte MD, is committed to helping sufferers and anyone who’s affected or concerned about the condition to understand the facts and take the necessary steps to reduce the chance of diabetes causing life-changing sight problems.

Diabetes And The Eyes

Diabetes is a condition where the body can’t regulate the amount of sugar (glucose) in the blood. There are two forms of the disease: Type I and Type II. The first is where the body can’t create insulin, a hormone vital for the metabolism of sugar. Type II is when insulin isn’t produced in large enough amounts or is ineffective. Both types have an impact on the health of the eye, with a range of risks that come under the umbrella term of “diabetic eye disease”.

When blood sugar rises without being monitored there are both short and long-term effects. The increased levels of glucose can cause blurred vision in the short term—something that usually reduces when the sugars normalize. If the levels are allowed to remain high they can cause damage to the blood vessels at the back of the eye. These can leak, swell, scar, and cause high pressure within the eye itself.

Problems that can occur over time include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, glaucoma, and cataracts. When these diseases are not treated or monitored properly, they can lead to blindness.

Preventative Steps

While this might seem to be cause for alarm, those with diabetes and prediabetes can take positive steps to reduce or prevent such eye conditions from occurring. By far the most effective means to do this is to manage blood sugar levels, reduce any hypertension (a condition that often goes hand in hand with diabetes), take steps to lower high cholesterol, quit smoking, and to have a dilated eye exam on an annual basis.

The latter is a vital method by which any signs of diabetic eye disease can be determined at the earliest stages. At the beginning of a decline in eye health, there may be no symptoms, and only a professional examination of the eye can see the initial minute changes. Working with a specialist eye-health provider, such as Brent Bellotte MD at the West Boca Eye Center, allows for ongoing individual assessment as to the risk factors, current damage, and treatments that might be necessary to ensure the very best vision on an on-going basis.

Professional Assessment For Peace Of Mind

Online information about diabetes and eye health ranges from accurate to the downright dangerous. The evolution of the disease varies in each individual, making the services of a professional eye clinician essential to ensure the best eye health as the condition progresses. When it comes to eyesight, the worst-case scenario of mismanaged diabetes is a complete loss of vision. Even blurred and reduced visual fields are hugely life-changing but, thankfully, this can often be avoided with careful management.

The importance of not allowing misinformation online to cloud a decision to seek professional advice cannot be stressed enough. For the ultimate diabetic eye-health treatment and preventative management, the advice of leading ophthalmologist Brent Bellotte M.D. is second to none.

Prem Rawat Foundation Annual Report Details Advances in Dignity, Peace, Prosperity


Prem Rawat Foundation Food for People

The Prem Rawat Foundation provided clean water and over 479,221 nutritious meals to children and ailing adults in Ghana, India and Nepal.

People from so many countries are getting a new lease on life, finding their inner strength and ability to find peace inside through the Peace Education Program.

The newly released 2018 Annual Report details how The Prem Rawat Foundation (TPRF) lays the groundwork for hope by addressing the fundamental needs of food, water and peace.

To advance peace, TPRF offered the signature Peace Education Program to more than 15,328 people in over 30 countries, reflecting a growth of 26 percent over 2017. Diverse groups of participants reported that the workshops gave them a stronger sense of hope and contentment—from students and business leaders to inmates, ex-combatants and more.

“Each day I am encouraged by the good news coming from the work of this Foundation that is laying the groundwork for world peace beginning with personal peace,” says Daya Rawat, TPRF President. “People from so many countries are getting a new lease on life, finding their inner strength and ability to find peace inside through the Peace Education Program.”

Videos of Prem Rawat’s inspiring talks are at the core of each multimedia workshop session, and TPRF sponsored live forums with Prem so that participants could ask follow-up questions and continue their learning to deepen their understanding of peace.

Prem met with U.S. inmates in Florida and California, and on the other side of the globe, he met with ex-combatants in Sri Lanka. In response to a violent crime epidemic in London, Prem joined leaders at Lambeth Community College to announce an expansion of the Peace Education Program as part of the solution. Prem also gave the keynote address at Kind Malaysia, a conference aiming to inspire responsible businesses to do more for the improvement of life in the societies they operate in.

The signature Food for People program provided clean water and over 479,221 nutritious meals to children and ailing adults in Ghana, India and Nepal, a 12 percent increase from the previous year. The program has also grown to encompass computer labs, language courses, and agricultural training—all transforming communities by improving health, educational achievement and economic sustainability.

Complementary eye clinics served nearly 6,000 impoverished people from 69 rural villages in India, providing free eyecare, eyeglasses, eye drops and cataract referrals. TPRF also provided $40,000 for critical medicines and medical supplies to help people recover from a devastating earthquake and tsunami in Indonesia.

The Annual Report shows that TPRF’s success is built on the strong grassroots support from volunteers and donors in over 50 countries. Both Guidestar and Charity Navigator, the world’s top independent evaluators of nonprofits, give TPRF their highest grades for outstanding transparency, fiscal responsibility and humanitarian results.

“In a world of turbulence, I am especially moved by the thousands of volunteers who apply time, energy, expertise, and enthusiasm to these programs, literally making them possible,” says Daya. “Joining them in the support of The Prem Rawat Foundation are the thousands of donors who make this work financially feasible. My personal thanks goes out to each one.”

Dry Eye Relief Discovered By Sharon Kleyne & Dr. Yuan Fang Of China Combats Global Blindness


Sixty percent of young people in China are nearsighted and 300 million Chinese people suffer from dry eye disease, says Dr. Yuan Fang, M.A., Ph.D. of the Bio Chemistry Research Center in China.

Joining Sharon Kleyne, founder and research director of Bio Logic Aqua® Research Water Life Science® in Grants Pass, Oregon and the host of the internationally syndicated radio program, The Sharon Kleyne Hour Water Life Science®/Nature’s Pharma®, The Power of Water® & Your Health sponsored by Nature’s Tears® EyeMist® on VoiceAmerica and produced by Rose Hong, founder and director of Global Dragon TV in Washington, D.C., genome researcher Fang strongly supports the use in China of Kleyne’s signature invention to provide long-lasting relief from dry eye, Nature’s Tears® EyeMist®.

Dr. Fang is internationally respected for his genome research and efforts to provide relief from dry eye and eye fatigue. After earning a Ph.D. in physiology in China, Fang came to the United States for post-doctoral training in neurology. Fang also studied dry eye at the OHSU Casey Eye Institute in Portland, Oregon where, says Fang, he began to notify and agitate people about the danger of dry eye and other ocular disorders. Fang and colleagues agree that over-evaporation of the tear film can infect and damage the cornea, causing symptoms that include headaches, irritability, exhaustion, red eyes, blurred vision, distracted behavior, poor vision, poor schoolwork, loss of productivity on the job and damage to relationships in families and communities. In severe cases, dry eye can also led to blindness.

Kleyne and Fang call for better education in China and around the world about dry eye, its causes, symptoms and treatments. Fang and Kleyne also want to see more new water technology and research and more proactive, individual care than they see now. “People must take responsibility for their personal health,” says Kleyne, inventor of the Health Olympics, a new lifestyle that encourages people everywhere to be responsible about their health care.

Fang and Kleyne encourage everyone to drink 8 to 10 glasses of water every day to replace the body water vapor that is lost continually through the natural process of evaporation. People also must learn to sleep with the earth, getting the rest that they (and their eyes) need every night. Breathing properly is important, too. Yoga, Tai Chi and Qigong teach proper breathing techniques And moderate exercise promotes improved health and well being. Diet should be designed to meet an individual’s specific needs because “Everyone is unique,” says Kleyne.

Fang and Kleyne are also promoting and teaching the use in China of Nature’s Tears® EyeMist®, the world’s only Dry Eye Solution® that is more than Just a Mist® or a chemical eye drop. Nature’s Tears® EyeMist® consists of pH-balanced, 100 percent Trade Secret tissue culture grade water and applied to the eye with a personal, patented micron-size mist, technology that is designed for ultimate absorption by the eye’s tear film, which is naturally 99 percent water. Nature’s Tears® EyeMist® new technology is painless and does not blur vision. Nature’s Tears® EyeMist® contains no additives or chemicals and is regularly tested in multiple laboratories, and is pure water that is lighter in weight than eye drops. That increased weight speeds up evaporation of the water in the eye.

Date aired: November 25th, 2019

Guest: Dr. Yuan Fang, M.A., Ph.D., China

New MyOnyx Rehab Solution Allows Better Targeting and Training of Specific Muscle Groups


biofeedback, EMG, sEMG, MyOnyx

MyOnyx

Both patient and therapist can see when exercises are performed correctly and efficiently.

The MyOnyx rehab solution by Thought Technology features a sleek hand-held device, equipped with surface electromyography (sEMG) sensors that measure and display muscle activity in real time. This information helps the physical therapist ensure the activation of the specific muscles being targeted for treatment. Both patient and therapist can see when exercises are performed correctly and efficiently.

A powerful tool for physical therapy, the MyOnyx system can be used for single or dual site muscle rehabilitation protocols (work/rest, rapid contractions, endurance, fine control, etc.).

When muscle activity is greatly reduced, due to partial paralysis, EMG triggered electrostimulation is an effective technique to help restore strength and movement control. The MyOnyx provides 2 channels of STIM/ EMG triggered STIM and 4 channels of electrostimulation options, including NMES.

MyOnyx is also a great tool for patient follow-up and outcome measurement. You can download EMG biofeedback sessions (RMS) to the Android app and use it to review the data and print out statistical reports. When connected to a PC, you can easily access raw EMG data and generate session and trend reports – essential tools for documenting session work and tracking progress.

MyOnyx is a portable, rechargeable device that offers multiple functionality modes:

  • Standalone, the user can rapidly select and run ESTIM protocols.
  • Remote control mode allows the use of an Android device, with the MyOnyx app, to select and run SEMG biofeedback, EMG triggered stim and ESTIM sessions remotely and view session activity in real time. The app also provides pre-programmed biofeedback sessions that keep clients engaged.
  • PC Control mode lets you connect the MyOnyx to a Windows computer and run Thought Technology’s powerful BioGraph software to expand the possibilities of SEMG biofeedback. The MyOnyx Suite includes quick assessments and a full set of entertaining and engaging biofeedback options.

There are two purchase options available to suit varying needs and budgets: the basic model can run in Standalone mode and comes with the Android app for remote control functionality, while the extended model includes all the hardware and software components you need to run MyOnyx in PC Controlled mode.

Flat and Healthy Tummy in Six Weeks, Black Friday Special by Dr. Alexandra Chaux, DPT with the Hypopressive Method


Image of Dr. Alexandra Chaux, DPT, Showing Flat Tummy in a Bikini

Dr. Alexandra Chaux, DPT, Hypopressive Method

“The Hypopressive Method has been very successful with all my Clients, especially women with tummy issue after giving birth” – Dr. Alexandra Chaux

The Hypopressive Method

What is Hypopressive?

It is the modern European method of getting strong abdominals in a healthy way. It is a group of rhythmical postures and breathing exercises used to balance the strength and the muscle tone between abdominals, pelvic floor, and the breathing muscles.

The Hypopressive method reduces the pressure in the intra-abdominal cavity responsible for that unwanted belly that does not go away even after thousands of sit ups.

What is the difference between Hypopressives and traditional Abdominals (crunches and sit ups)?

Traditional abdominals make your abdominals stronger and at the same time increases the intra-abdominal pressure, pushes organs down, and weakens your pelvic floor muscles, which increases the chance of having health issues such as incontinence, hernias, sexual dysfunctions, and back pain.

Hypopressives make your abdominal muscles stronger and decrease the intra-abdominal pressure; putting organs back in place, making the pelvic floor muscles stronger, reducing waist perimeter, preventing and resolving health issues including organ prolapsed, diasti rectis, hernias, urinary incontinence, back pain, poor posture, swollen legs, and sexual dysfunctions.

Who can perform Hypopressive?

Those who want to:

  •     Recover their figure after childbirth
  •     Sculpt a smaller waist
  •     Have stronger abdominals/core
  •     Prevent or alleviate urinary incontinence, back pain, and hernias
  •     Have a better sexual life by increasing sensation and orgasms.
  •     Have more energy and endurance

When should you do Hypopressive?

You just need to do Hypopressive one to two times a week for 25-30 minutes for the first 6 weeks. This will give time to the brain to reprogram the abdominal muscles, pelvic floor muscles, and breathing muscles, to teach them to work together at the same time always even when you are relaxed sitting in a comfortable chair.

It is advised to include Hypopressive exercises in your daily routine after the 6 weeks to maximize results.

What are the benefits?

  •     Reduce Waist Perimeter
  •     Improve Sexual Function
  •     Prevent Urinary Incontinence
  •     Enhance Posture and Flexibility
  •     Prevent many types of hernias (Inguinal, abdominal, lumber, etc.)
  •     Create a Lumbo-Pelvic Protection
  •     Reduce back injuries
  •     Improve Cardiovascular Endurance
  •     Boost the Immune System

How do you perform Hypopressive?

Look for a certified Hypopressive health professional to start the healthiest abdominal workout. They are well known in Europe and South America. Learn more at Dr. Chaux’s Blog.

Who should not do Hypopressive?

  •     During pregnancy
  •     High blood pressure
  •     Hypothyroidism

How many health professionals are certified in the Hypopressive method for rehabilitation and therapy (Hypopressive abdominal gymnastics) in the USA?

(Hypopressive Abdominal gymnastics is a certification given just exclusively to doctors, and physical therapists in Spain.)

There is just one health professional in the USA: Dr. Alexandra Chaux, DPT. Dr. Chaux is a Doctor of Physical Therapy in Malibu, California. She went to Spain in January 2014 to get certified specifically to help her patients with abdominal and pelvic issues.

Press: Dr. Chaux has been featured on Romper.com and Univision Television. The results have been outstanding for her clients and students.

Sign-up for her Hypopressive Core 6-Week Video Series 1, normally just $59, now 50% off at $29.
