Reflexologist Joins The Center, Life in Balance The Center, Life in Balance, in Medford, welcomes Marlene Hudson to its community of holistic practitioners. Hudson specializes in reflexology and emotional healing. She incorporates essential oils with an approach called Vita Flex, which enhances vitality through reflexes. Reflexology brought her the relief from sciatica pain she had been experiencing for years. This inspired her to spread awareness of the science of reflexology through education. “Reflexology reverses the stress response and is an effective, safe alternative to drugs for stress reduction, pain and anxiety,” explains Hudson. “The feet reflect the body literally, and foot analysis most often is the most intriguing part of the session.” Besides offering private sessions, Hudson teaches classes in reflexology and aromatherapy for massage therapists seeking continuing education credits and reflexology certification courses. “We are pleased to have Marlene bring her healing energy and expertise to The Center. And she is excited to share her healing gifts Marlene Hudson through private sessions and classes,” says Susan Costantino Drummond, co-owner of The Center. Hudson has an introductory offer through May: Save $10 on a 30-minute session. Location: 45 S. Main St. For more information or to schedule an appointment with Hudson, call 609-321-4843, email LearnReflex@gmail.com or visit LearnReflex.com. 8

Dr. Debora Reeh
Excitari Wellness Center Welcomes Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine Excitari Wellness Center, in Medford, recently welcomed Dr. Debora Reeh, a board-certified family physician in practice for more than 20 years. As a doctor of osteopathic medicine, her focus is on the body, mind and spirit as part of one interconnected system. Reeh has special expertise in osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), which honors the relationship between structure and function. Reeh uses her hands to treat a wide range of conditions, from acute pain or injury to chronic, long-standing issues. OMT is extremely helpful for musculoskeletal pain and calming of the nervous system. It is also beneficial for medical diagnoses. Reeh successfully treats individuals that have symptoms originating from surgery or trauma, regardless of severity or years elapsed since onset. For example, she explores the anatomic links between a minor rear-end collision and unexplained dental pain months later, or a childhood nasal fracture and current-day shoulder pain. Many of her patients have unusual symptoms and have been to many varied conventional practitioners before finding relief with her osteopathic care.
