Making Our Community Beautiful: Capitol Projects

Genesis • January 6, 2010

Confidence is a large part of how we view ourselves. Nothing can make us feel more beautiful than the feeling that we are a worthwhile part of our world. For many of us, that is just a given, but for some, feeling productive is harder to come by. That is why this month’s charitable organization is such a value to those it serves. Capitol Projects is a local sheltered workshop for the handicapped in our community. Businesses can outsource jobs and help provide employment for the disabled.

Lori, one of our RNs, chose this organization because it made such a huge impression on her when she visited. Twice, she went there as part of JCMG’s participation in the United Way Day of Caring. She commented on how much pride and care the employees took in their work and what an inspiration it was. I actually went there this year as part of the Day of Caring and wholeheartedly agree. Everyone was excited to show us what they did, and worked efficiently and with great care. They had a sense of pride in their job well done. Hopefully, our donation can let them know that there are people in our community that appreciate the work they are doing. We will share what the donation was and how it will be used in a future newsletter. So, this January, know that a portion of every purchase will benefit Capitol Projects.

Thanks to those that help make this organization the success that it is. If you would like more information on Capitol Projects, or have a business that may have jobs that they could help with, look them up at www.capitolprojectsinc.com.

Spring has officially arrived, bringing warmer days, lighter layers, and more time outdoors. If visible veins make you hesitant about shorts, dresses, or sandals, you’re far from alone. Nearly 55% of Americans experience some form of vein disease, including spider veins, bulging varicose veins, and uncomfortable leg symptoms. Those blue, purple, or raised veins aren’t just a cosmetic concern. They can cause daily discomfort and, in some cases, signal an underlying vein condition. The good news? Because vein issues are often medical—not cosmetic—most insurance plans cover evaluation and treatment.  Varicose Veins: What You Should Know This Spring Varicose veins are common, treatable, and often progressive if left unaddressed. Understanding the cause, symptoms, and available treatments now can help you feel more comfortable—and confident—as you head into the warmer months. What Are Varicose Veins? Varicose veins develop when the valves inside your veins weaken or fail. Instead of blood flowing efficiently back to the heart, it pools in the vein, causing it to stretch, twist, and become visible beneath the skin—most often in the legs.

Are you tired of looking in the mirror and seeing the signs of aging, sun damage, or just the wear and tear of everyday life? Get ready to turn up the heat with Tixel, the skin resurfacing treatment that’s hotter than your morning coffee and twice as refreshing. This innovative treatment uses cutting-edge technology to rejuvenate your skin and leave you looking and feeling refreshed. So, what exactly is skin resurfacing? Essentially, it’s a process that removes the outer layers of your skin to reveal the healthier, more vibrant skin underneath. (Think of it like peeling a carrot.) This can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, and even acne scars. This is the best part – Tixel is non-invasive and has minimal downtime. Tixel uses heat to create tiny microchannels in the skin, which stimulate the body’s natural healing process and encourage the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Plus, because Tixel uses heat rather than lasers or chemicals, it’s a safer and more comfortable option. This method is less invasive and leads to less tissue damage, resulting in minimal downtime. Of course, it’s important to remember that Tixel is only part of the equation when it comes to healthy, glowing skin. To truly maintain those amazing results, you need to take good care of your skin at home. This includes using high-quality skincare products, avoiding excessive sun exposure, and staying hydrated. Think of Tixel as the hero of your skincare routine, and your at-home regimen as the trusty sidekick along with your Aesthetic Provider’s tips and tricks. Together, they’ll help you achieve your skincare goals.

Cosmetic fillers are a great way to help you turn back time, when used correctly. Do you notice the person staring at you in the mirror has a few more lines than before? Are you seeing an image of your parents or grandparents looking back at you? Time and the aging process is something we can’t stop, but we can help slow it with cosmetic fillers. Cosmetic fillers are a great way to enhance areas on the face or simply put back volume that time took away. They can volumize the cheeks, sharpen the chin and jawlines, volumize the lips, and soften unwanted wrinkles. Done in the right hands, cosmetic fillers will help bring back a younger, more youthful version of you! Injecting filler is an art that requires precision, ongoing training, and an eye for detail. For the best results, it is important that you choose an injector who is highly educated and stays current with the latest techniques. It is important to remember that fillers only replace volume; they don’t stop the movement of the face, which le

The good news is bioidentical hormone replacement can relieve these symptoms and even provide protection against chronic health conditions. Not to be confused with synthetic hormones that come with the risk of blood clots and cancers, bioidentical hormones are naturally made from plant-based materials and have little to no increased risk of cardiovascular disease or cancer, but instead are shown by research studies to protect against these conditions and can be used long term without an increase in risk.
