Health and Exercise Franchise SuperSlow Zone® Silver Creek Showcases Strength Training Method At Senior Health Fair

Posted by Lindsay Dicks on Oct 9th, 2008

SuperSlow Zone® Silver Creek, Calif., a distinctive health and exercise franchise, will be participating and showcasing at The Senior Health Fair sponsored by San Jose Medical Group.

 Silver Creek, Calif. – October 9, 2008 – SuperSlow Zone® Silver Creek (San Jose), a distinctive national exercise and health franchise that offers SuperSlow® strength training, will be holding a booth at the Senior Health Fair in San Jose, Calif. on Saturday, October 11th. The fair is being hosted and organized by the San Jose Medical Group, and is sponsored by The Foundation For Wellness Professionals.  

 SuperSlow® Zone Silver Creek will be showcasing their revolutionary strength training methods to San Jose area seniors and showcasing how the SuperSlow® method can help seniors of all fitness levels to safely gain muscle strength and tone, without long, vigorous workout routines. 

Marie Ortiz, owner and operator of SuperSlow Zone® Silver Creek, notes just how important getting health information and support to seniors is. “In tough economic times like we’re experiencing today, taking care of one’s health can often take a secondary place in priorities. Finding ways to ensure we maintain or even improve our health is probably the most sound financial investment we can all make – and the San Jose Medical Group’s Health Fair offers wonderful opportunities for seniors to seek alternatives to help them out.” Marie Ortiz also notes “One of the core reasons we started our SuperSlow® location had to do with the life-enabling aspects it provides to so many.  I have senior citizens who have joined primarily to improve their existing quality of life as their core objective.  From being able to successfully care for their grandchildren, to overcoming the pain from arthritis, to generally increasing their mobility so they can be independent, we have many success stories already that we can share – and we’ve only been open five months!”

SuperSlow Zone® Silver Creek is the first South Bay Area exercise facility to offer the SuperSlow® exercise protocol. SuperSlow® has been the leading strength training protocol for more than 26 distinguished years.  The SuperSlow® method is an expert-supervised, 20-minute, twice-a-week, strength training protocol that has proven to be the safest, most efficient and effective form of strength training available.

 The Senior Health Fair will be taking place from 10:00am – 2:00pm on Saturday, October 11, 2008.  The fair is being held at San Jose Medical Group, McKee Branch, 227 N. Jackson Ave., San Jose, CA 95116.  For more information about the fair, call (408) 278-3180.

Health And Exercise Franchise SuperSlow Zone® CEO Madeline Ross To Speak At Corporate Wellness Conference

Posted by Lindsay Dicks on Oct 9th, 2008

Madeline Ross, CEO of exercise franchise SuperSlow Zone®, will be a featured speaker at the Club Industry Conference 2008 on October 17 in Chicago, Illinois, focusing on corporate wellness.

 Orlando, Fla. – October 9, 2008 – SuperSlow Zone, LLC® CEO, Madeline Ross, will be a featured speaker of the Corporate Wellness Section at this year’s Club Industry Conference in Chicago, Illinois.  This event is billed as the conference and exposition for health and fitness facility management.  Dr. Deborah Harding, MD, founder and managing member and medical director for MD One-on-One, will join Ross to cover the topic of corporate fitness and wellness. Ross will discuss the benefits of SuperSlow Zone® and Harding will discuss MD One-on-One in the corporate environment as a catalyst for employee production increases, the long-term health of employees, a company’s Return On Investment (ROI), as well as the benefit of corporate wellness on the “system” as a whole including the company, family, health insurance companies and the medical community.

 “My focus at the corporate wellness conference will be how a company implements a new, or enhances an existing, wellness/health management plan. I will provide what I see are the ‘best of class resources’ for this. Specifically regarding the ‘exercise component’ of corporate wellness, which is a requirement of any worthwhile plan, I will outline what produces results and thus return on investment (ROI) for a company. It has to be ‘on-site,’ clinically-controlled, like the standards used for medical labs, convenient, safe, efficient and effective,” Ross explained. “SuperSlow Zone® is ‘on-site’ three ways: built inside the company, a modular or a mobile SSZ. SuperSlow Zone® is THE choice for corporate wellness exercise.”

 SuperSlow® has been the leading strength training protocol for more than 26 distinguished years.  The SuperSlow® method is an expert-supervised, 20-minute, twice-a-week, strength training protocol that has proven to be the safest, most efficient and effective form of strength training available. SuperSlow Zone’s® clients are men and women of all ages who seek a professional health and exercise service that delivers maximum results in a minimum amount of time.

 “My goal,” Harding said, “is to talk about the best technology, smart science and the medical assessment that is the basis of the plan to optimize people’s health, fitness and energy. You have to have all three to support a client in being and doing more than they ever imagined.  I have spent years learning, and still continue to learn, to make the best medical assessment as the basis for care and support of my clients. You have to have this as a starting point.”

 The conference will take place October 15 -18, with exhibits on October 16 -18.  Madeline Ross and Dr. Deborah Harding, MD will speak on Friday, October 17, between 2:00 and 3:30pm.

Orlando Vascular Surgeon, Dr. Roger Murray, MD, Offers Revolutionary Anti-Aging Product, Telemorx™

Posted by Lindsay Dicks on Oct 2nd, 2008

Dr. Roger Murray, MD, an Orlando-based cosmetic and vascular surgeon, earns impressive positive feedback from patients who use his revolutionary anti-aging product, Telemorx™.

 Orlando, Fla. –October 2, 2008 – Dr. Roger Murray, MD, an Orlando-based cosmetic and vascular surgeon worked directly with an international lab to create Telemorx™, a product he designed to be an enhanced anti-aging product. Dr. Murray’s patients who take Telemorx™ rave about it because it gives them the energy and thought process speed they remember having 20 years earlier.

 About the success of Telemorx™, Dr. Murray said, “The reason is simple: we have loaded it with bovine IGF-1, which works identical to human IGF-1, and contains over nine growth factors. Take this pill with cold water and you will feel the way you have always hoped a booster pill would make you feel. It only takes a couple of months for you to prove to yourself the daily dose gives you a new smile.”

 Telemorx™ is made with cold processed and ultra filtrated Bovine Colostrum, which is the first 48 hours of feedings that a cow gives to her newborn calves. This ingredient is a clear liquid and is of the highest quality on the market today.  Telemorx™ is different from other nutritional supplements because it is only taken from organic cows. It is seven times more potent than human colostrum. Telemorx™ is processed under refrigeration and therefore maintains all growth factors essential for healing and wound repair.

Some of the benefits of this product, created and sold by Dr. Roger Murray, MD, on his website http://www.DrMurraysOnline.com, include accelerated healing and recovery time, reduced swelling, promotion of wound healing, pain reduction and stimulation of the immune system.

About his practical experience with Telemorx™, Daniel S. Stein, M.D. F.A.C.O.G. of the Stein Medical Institute said, “I have reviewed hundreds of products in the marketplace over the past 30 years and prefer not to endorse products because of variability of manufacturer and inconsistent bioavailability and bioactivity even from the same manufacturer. I know for a fact that Dr. Roger Murray, who brings Telemorx™ to America, has ensured the finest quality manufacturing possible. It is with the greatest confidence that I whole heartily recommend Telemorx™.  I frequently say to patients, ‘do unto others as you would have them do unto you.’ In this case, I am recommending to others what I hope would be recommended to me, namely Telemorx™.”
