Family
Wellness Center - Provides
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. This specialized therapy allows the
body to incorporate more oxygen into the blood cells, blood plasma,
cerebral spinal fluid and other bodily fluids. The treatment is
administered by placing a patient in a comfortable pressurized chamber
that circulates approximately 30-35% oxygen at 1.3 times atmospheric
pressure. Some neurological conditions that have benefited from
hyperbaric oxygen therapy include cerebral palsy, stroke, autism,
traumatic brain injury, chronic fatigue, Multiple Sclerosis, migraine
headaches, lyme disease and more.

Noteworthy Crafts - Offers an
extensive and unique collection of hand-crafted jewelry, prints, note
cards, and journals. Betty Refour has a degree in Fashion Design and has
been drawing most of my life, but no one seemed to notice until she
started to paint. While recovering from a back injury, she began painting
as a form of therapy as it seemed that it would be relaxing at a very
stressful time. After one painting, she started receiving commissions for
private collections. Not soon after, Betty combined her joy for writing
cards with her passion for painting and drawing. The cards became a hit.
Noteworthy Crafts is a "sponsoring" business. Betty's sister Rose is
autistic and Betty profiles her sister's artwork on the site.
