BALLANTYNE health & wellness advertising section Laxer, Long & Savage: Pediatric Dentistry, Orthodontic Specialists in Ballantyne At Laxer, Long & Savage, we endeavor to render the highest standard of excellence in dental treatment and patient experiences for children and teens in the South Charlotte area. Our combination of pediatric dentistry and orthodontics ensures that patients receive expert information and guidance in developing positive oral hygiene and dietary habits, as well as individualized appliance therapies and/or braces when needed to enhance and improve their natural smiles. During the school year, we see dental emergencies in young athletes and sports enthusiasts. Our doctors have special expertise in the area of stabilization, reimplantation, and restoration of fractured and fragmented teeth due to accidents. Our offi ce serves as a dental trauma and emergency center for our patients 'round the clock, should an accident occur. We take a preventive approach by encouraging patients to wear mouth guards in activities where impact to the teeth might occur. Our orthodontic team is also certifi ed to offer a series of mouth guards that increase jaw stability and help protect athletes from mild traumatic brain injury caused by impact to the jaw. We recently outfi tted Providence High football players with this protective equipment to raise awareness about proactive measures available. We welcome new patients. Our Ballantyne offi ce is located at the corner of Rea Road and Ballantyne Commons Parkway. For an appointment or to learn more about Drs. Judy Laxer, Sonny Long and Matthew Savage, call 704-759-0000 or visit www.laxerlongandsavage.com. Emily Thomas: 'The Most Personal Personal Training in South Charlotte' Thomas Personal Training is private in-home training that goes beyond traditional personal training. I will design cardio and strength-training programs, as well as a nutritional strategy built around your unique individual goals to ensure maximum long-term results. You don't even need any equipment. I bring everything to give you a challenging workout every time. It's a total body approach to health and fi tness, personally designed to give you the lean, strong body you've been looking for. I'll even guide you through the grocery store so you can choose foods that will encourage maximum results and total body transformation. My holistic approach to fi tness benefi ts all types of clients in all walks of life — from the beginner to the seasoned athlete. All of my training focuses on strengthening the core fi rst, as the core is the foun- dation for all body movements. This is accomplished through the use of stability balls, BOSU balls, free weights, resistance bands, kettle- bells and even a client's own body weight. I have inspired and educated clients in all areas of strength training, resistance training, weight loss, nutrition, cardiovascular fi tness and athletic conditioning. My specialties include nutrition, sports-specifi c fi tness (i.e., run- ning, golf, tennis, skiing), and general fi tness for people of all ages, including older adults. I strive to provide the most personal, personal training in the area. It's time to put you fi rst and train in the comfort and privacy of your own home!

Mecklenburg Ear, Nose, & Throat Offers Complete Treatment Options Mecklenburg Ear, Nose, & Throat (ENT) specializes in ear, nose and throat disorders, ranging from sinusitis and allergies to tonsillitis, sleep apnea, snoring, ear infections, hearing loss and hearing aids. Dr. Joshua Levine provides professional and friendly health care to adults and children of all ages. He enjoys all aspects of ENT, whether a patient has a complicated, chronic condition or a crayon stuck in his or her ear. He believes strongly in getting to know his patients and developing a treatment plan that will keep them out of the doctor's offi ce. Mecklenburg ENT recognizes the importance of maintaining excellence within the fi eld of ENT while also building skills in overlapping areas of medicine. For example, allergies often contribute to sinus infections. Treating a sinus infection alone without addressing underlying allergy problems is like putting a Band-Aid on the problem. For this reason, Levine has pursued additional training in the diagnosis and treatment of allergic disease. He is a board-certifi ed physician who graduated from Boston University School of Medicine and completed his residency at University of Miami-Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami. He received additional training in otology and general otolaryngology at Christchurch Hospital in New Zealand. His special interests include pediatrics, otology and sinus surgery. Mecklenburg ENT is affi liated with both area hospital systems and participates with all insurance plans, including Medicare, Medicaid and TRICARE. The practice offers a convenient location in Ballantyne at 15825 John J. Delaney Drive, Suite 240.
