Local Expert
Jackson Float Therapy & Massage:
Can Flotation Therapy Help You? SM: What is Flotation Therapy? JFT: Flotation therapy is a luxurious escape from the constant stress of life’s daily pressures and a natural way to heal the body and mind. The concept is very much like the mineral salt baths at the Dead Sea in Israel. one thousand pounds of Epsom salt is dissolved into 93.5 degree water in the spa tub to create this effect. Both lightproof and soundproof, this peaceful space frees you of gravity, noise, and other distractions. Your body and mind achieve calmness as you enter into a theta brain wave state, resulting in a profound level of relaxation. Flotation allows your body and mind to enter into its deepest state of relaxation. Doctors, athletes, and float enthusiasts are using Flotation Therapy for neurological, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, muscular, skeletal, and hormonal balance. Flotation brings the body back into homeostasis (state of balance). SM: What are some of the physical benefits of Flotation Therapy? JFT: There are many physical benefits of Flotation Therapy including easing back and neck pain, aching joints, arthritis, fibromyalgia,
and chronic pain. It helps to reduce headaches, high blood pressure, asthma, allergies, anxiety, depression, neurosis, panic attacks, jet lag, insomnia, and exhaustion. Flotation Therapy improves circulation and relaxation. It also helps with illness recovery and drug, alcohol, tobacco, and food addictions. Epsom salt is a great muscle relaxer and anti-inflammatory mineral, that also aids in the detoxification of the body. Flotation Therapy speeds up recovery time after injury. Flotation Therapy can help balance a stressed out immune system. SM: What are some of the mental benefits of Flotation Therapy? JFT: In addition to the many physical benefits, Flotation Therapy improves concentration, motivation, and memory. It enhances learning, visualization, and creativity. A 90 minute Flotation Therapy session is equal to six hours of restorative sleep. It reduces cortisol levels back to a productive and normal state. Flotation Therapy creates an environment where the “training of the mind” becomes effortless. It takes clients to and keeps them in the “theta state,” which allows the most creative part of the brain to engage.

Nostalgia Meets New Technology By Sarah Vaughan Photos by Mitch Carter, Moore Studio
Brooks Shaw, Owner, Old Country Store
Guests of the Old Country Store and Dixie Cafe will soon see many exciting changes, including smart car chargers, a loyalty program and curbside takeout.
S
tepping into the Old Country Store and Dixie Cafe is like stepping back in time. As one of the South’s most unique gift shops, they stock items not easily found in other stores, from nostalgic candy and homemade jams, jellies, and relishes to unique, affordably-priced jewelry made right here in Tennessee. But despite being renowned for its nostalgia and vintage feel, the Old Country Store is not behind when it comes to technology and customer service. Owners Clark Shaw and son Brooks have recently made quite a few changes that will further enable them to provide the great customer service they are known for. From rolling out online ordering, launching a new
18 JacksonTN.SnagMob.com
website, and text alerts with a loyalty program to adding Tesla Supercharging stations for electric car travelers, guests can expect to see exciting changes taking place. Brooks, the driving force behind the changes, says the inspiration for them was a desire to stay relevant in a world where technology is always changing. “I’m a millennial, and we love our technology,” says Brooks. “We are the Old Country Store, but I wanted to find ways to be competitive in the marketplace. I want to make it easier for people to work here and give incentives for guests to come and spend their money here. I’m excited about the Tesla charger because five years down the road, there’s going to be a lot more of those cars coming through. I think there’s all these opportunities to say this isn’t just an old country store. We are a forward thinking company who wants to preserve this special time in history in a turn-of-the-century general store, but we are also looking for ways to be competitive with consumers and staff.” The newly updated website features mobilefriendly viewing with online shopping, a blog, applications for employment, and online
“We love our hometown folks and the travelers from around the world. We love giving them a place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere, food, and friendly service.” – Brooks Shaw, Owner, Old Country Store reservations. Soon, guests will also be able to order online through the website as well as an app for curbside takeout from the Dixie Cafe. The Tesla charging stations, which provide a full charge in just 45 minutes, will be unveiled at a ribbon-cutting ceremony in January, and will allow guests to eat, shop, and relax while “refueling” their Tesla smart car. One of the most exciting changes taking place is the new loyalty program that will allow guests to check in on an iPad with their name and
The Old Country Store’s newly installed Tesla Supercharging stations. phone number, keeping up with the frequency of their visits. After the ninth visit, the tenth will be free! Guests can also choose to sign up for text alerts on limited specials and discounts only advertised to members of the loyalty program. “Communication is big, and these are all ways of communicating to new customers or those who may not have been here in awhile,” says Brooks. “We don’t want people to feel like if they’ve been here once then they’ve seen it all. If we can increase our ways of communicating with them, that’s huge. Everything that we do, it may not have immediate impact, but we’re a company that’s been here a long time, and I look back to where we were a year ago and see what’s changed. We don’t want to lose touch with locals, but we also want to remain known as a local restaurant where the world comes to eat.”
Changes are also taking place In the back of the house, with all of the staff being converted to online schedules. This technology is relatively new in the restaurant world, as only 20 percent of independent restaurants use online schedules, compared to 50 percent of chain restaurants. The same software replaces the employee call list, streamlines the request for time off process, and provides instant communication abilities via text message and email to staff. “We have worked very hard and continue to work very hard on our culture,” says Brooks. “If you grow people, people grow your business. It’s so profoundly simple, but that’s really what it is. We are looking for opportunities to grow our team members. We have a staff library with books related to management and hospitality management and trade magazines they can check out and take home or read on break. We have leadership and money management books. I’ve had team members come up to me and say I used this information I read in this book and got a bigger tip, or people are buying more products from the gift shop because we used the display suggestions in a magazine you gave us. We focus on having a family atmosphere and family values and having that balance to the business side of things. We want to make sure it feels like a family, because that shows to the guests.”

Refresh and Rejuvenate Your Skin Care Regimen this Winter
W
ith the harsh winter weather, pollutants, stress, and aging, there’s no better time than now to take advantage of Bloom Med Spa’s winter specials on rejuvenating facials and skin treatments, all of which include a complimentary consultation. Bloom is a full-service medical spa that provides a variety of medical aesthetic services. All of Bloom’s services include a minimal recovery period. With many services, you can even wear face makeup within 24 hours. Certain treatments, like our permanent and pain-free hair removal, require that there be no exposure to sun, spray tans, or tanning beds for three
weeks prior to and after treatment. Our fractional resurfacing regimen, Fractora, only requires a one week sun restriction before and after treatment, which is why so many of our clients choose to have them done in the winter. Bloom offers more than maintenance facials; they offer life-changing skin services. With Bloom’s acne treatment, one client who had struggled with acne since elementary school was able to enjoy clear skin for the first time in college. Those who have taken advantage of the antioxidant-cleansing colon hydrotherapy have reported feeling healthier and happier than ever before.

Pure Barre:
Where Fun Meets Fitness Stick to your New Year’s resolution to get in shape. At Pure Barre, workouts are enjoyable, motivating, and never boring.
H
ave you ever made a New Year’s resolution to get healthy or join a gym, only to find yourself unmotivated and getting bored with your routine after not seeing quick results? If you’re looking for a workout that is lowimpact, fun, and allows you to have longer, leaner muscles with strength and flexibility, Pure Barre is the solution for you. Pure Barre is a 55-minute, total body workout that focuses on every muscle in the body by utilizing a ballet bar and small weights that build strength and flexibility while improving posture and balance, giving you a dancer’s body with no dancing experience required. Using targeted techniques in a variety of sequences, you’ll never take the same class twice, so you can say goodbye to boredom and hello to a whole new body. With Pure Barre, many see results in just two to three weeks, and with trainers that are
personally invested in your health and wellness, you’ll never have to worry about not having an accountability partner again. If you are new to working out, or if you’ve had an injury or health issues, Pure Barre is a safe and effective workout for you, since it doesn’t require any jumping or bouncing, and it’s simple, straightforward techniques mean you won’t feel left behind no matter your experience level.
