Letter from the Publisher
Our winter issue was so much fun to spruce up for the holiday season, with color options and little special touches like our Christmas tree recycling tips on page 23, and our Locally Grown advertisers’ favorite holiday traditions in the Upstate on page 31. The “Healthy Tips to Glide Through Winter” section on page 14 and 15, has some great kidney support suggestions, and I tried those cold weather stretches out from Dr. Ian; I found I was more flexible and it positively enhanced my mood afterwards.
With the many stressors that encompass the winter months, (including the holidays) remind yourself how to be simply joyful on page 20, and also more romantic on page 21, so your New Year will be off to a fantastic start!

After such a long, very hot summer, I bet everyone is grateful for some cooler weather. Speaking of grateful, check out Lyn-Dee “Woobie” Elderidge’s article, “Three Daily Healthy Habits to Live in Gratitude and Be Happy” on page 16.
There are lots of fun events planned for this season, so make sure you take a look at our Healthy Happenings column on page 31.
As school is in session in our neck of the woods, colds start to show up for everyone as well; Leila Scogin, CNHP from Joi Natural Wellness has some lung and respiratory support tips on page 15.
We’re excited to announce that we are now distributing in all Publix grocery stores in the Upstate (in the Free Magazine section near the newspapers), so make sure you grab a few extra copies to share with family and friends. Don’t forget to keep one in your car!

Wellness Center Adds Regenerative Technology Program
Solutions in Health Care has added Nervous System Regenerative Technology (NRG for short) to their wellness program. The NRG quantum analysis reads 92,000 bio-electric functions of the body to determine areas of weaknesses and pathways of biological degeneration. The analysis reveals toxins, infections, trauma, and inadequacies in the body.
The NRG system then develops a regenerative electrical frequency program that helps your immune system to reverse those flawed processes. “The NRG Card records personal optimal function, which is our goal,” says Dr. Jeanne Petan, PhD. “Then the client takes the NRG card home and places it in their pillowcase at night. Since detoxification happens while you sleep, the card records frequencies. When the client returns with the card, I can see how the body is responding from what the card records. This not only shows the progress that is being made; we then can plan our next goal to continue the healing process,” says Petan.
According to Petan, the understanding of the body’s toxins, strengths, and weaknesses is mandatory for symptom relief and to start the regeneration process. The goal of Solutions in Health Care is to inspire clients to create a healthy lifestyle. Many other services are offered, which are listed on her website.
Solutions in Health Care is located at 290 Entree Trail, Fountain Inn. For more information, call 864-862-4113 or Visit SolutionsInHealthCare.Services.

Bakery and Country Store Opens in Easley
Little Sprout Ridge Bakery and Country Store is a family-owned business located in Easley, SC. Opened on May 2, 2022, the bakery is filled with a variety of options as well as a lunch menu and a retail section containing handmade goats milk soaps and bath products as well as other hand crafted, artisan items. The store got its start on the family’s homestead where owner, Elizabeth Jansen started making goats milk bath products from fresh goats milk. From there, working under a cottage kitchen licensing, she added baked goods and began selling at local craft fairs and farmers’ markets. With the support of the community and sales rising, it became clear that the growth required more space. Jansen with her husband, Rob, began looking for a storefront and the rest is history.

Fascia Blasting Offered at Spa in Greer
Fascia blasting treatments are now being offered at Pure Wellness Spa in Greer. What’s fascia blasting? Fascia blasting is a form of fascial manipulation. Fascia is the connective tissue that encases the entire body; sort of like a sausage casing, and it surrounds muscles, nerves, tendons, and ligaments and gives them shape. The process involves a hard plastic tool called the FasciaBlaster, which was invented by Ashley Black. The tools can be short or long sticks with little claws or feet attached to it; the body is “scrubbed” briskly to warmup and manipulate, which in turn, makes the fascia more pliable, flexible and smooth. Hence why Ashley Black says, “It’s not fat, it’s fascia.”
“I’m elated to bring a new service that will assist in recovery, pain relief, contouring and enhance total body movement,” said Atir Sveska-Sharpe, a licensed massage and bodywork therapist who works at Pure Wellness Spa in Greer. Pure Wellness Spa is also an herbal remedy boutique that offers vitamins and supplements and a variety of alternative health spa therapies that aid in healing, nourishing, cleansing and rejuvenating the whole body.
Pure Wellness Spa is located at 108 Cannon St., Greer. For more information, call 864-655-5079 or visit PureOnMain.com.
