to CHRONIC BACK PAIN, LASER When GoIt Comes to the Pros the Pros Use SPINE INSTITUTE

Laser Spine Institute gets PGA TOUR golfer Peter Jacobsen back on course quickly. You never know when back pain will get you, but it’s always lurking ready to ruin your fun. Like when you twist into the driver’s seat of your favorite supercharged two-seater or as you’re teeing it up. Yes, chronic back pain can keep you from enjoying all the best that life has to offer. And until recently, the cure, in the form of traditional open back surgery, was just as disruptive and aggravating as the pain—days of hospital confinement, worries over anesthesia and operating room mishaps, body casts, internal hardware, extended recovery periods. And, after enduring all of this, in some cases, no guarantee of success. So it’s no surprise that so many people opted to ‘live with it’ as long as possible. Professional golfer Peter Jacobsen being one of them who had back problems that progressively worsened over a five-year period. “I had that crippling sciatic pain down the back of both legs for about three to four years,” says Jacobsen, a member of the 1985 and 1995 U.S. Ryder Cup teams and a 30-year veteran of the PGA TOUR. “I simply couldn’t play golf to the level that I wanted with the pain that I had been experiencing.” After a hip replacement in September 2006, Jacobsen’s hip surgeon informed him that he would now have to address his back pain. That’s when a friend of the golfer told him about the Laser Spine Institute in Tampa, Florida. Founded in March 2005, by Dr. James St. Louis, a two-time recipient of the Physician of the Year award, Laser Spine Institute’s team of renowned surgeons, have performed over 12,000 surgeries using minimally invasive techniques that allow multiple procedures to be performed in one surgery, with less risk and quicker recovery time than traditional open back surgeries or fusions.

Gentle alternative to open back surgery—no hospital stay or long recovery.

“My surgery lasted a little over an hour and I enjoyed a nice walk later that day,” Jacobsen reports. “Ten days later, I was tied for the lead in the third round of the Toshiba Classic and I was enjoying golf again…pain free.” Jacobsen’s sciatic pain was caused by spinal stenosis, a narrowing in the spinal canal. This narrowing impinges the nerves surrounding the spinal cord, causing pain, numbness, tingling, and weakening of the muscles. By entering the low back through a small tube, the LSI surgeon used James St. Louis, a laser and other small surgical Dr. Chief Surgeon

instruments to release the nerve, in turn, releasing the pain. It is an example of the back and neck surgeries performed at LSI that are all minimally invasive and endoscopic, with no general anesthesia or hospital stay needed. With an incision measuring less than one inch, LSI’s expert surgeons can treat a variety of back and neck ailments which plague sufferers with debilitating pain. This outpatient procedure is part of the streamlined process LSI employs to take patients from evaluation to post-surgical therapy in less than a week. Comprehensive services are located within the walls of the facility, which by the way, has zero-gravity recliners, big screen plasma televisions, and catered breakfast and lunch. What feels like an exclusive spa-like resort is actually a highly professional and acclaimed outpatient surgical center dedicated to using the latest techniques and technology for alleviating pain in the back and neck.

Spinal Conditions Treated At LSI: • • • • • • • •

Spinal stenosis Bulging/herniated discs Pinched nerves Degenerative disc disease Bone spurs Foraminal stenosis Spinal Arthritis Failed open back or neck surgery

If you have had long-term back pain with no results from conservative treatments like chiropractors, physical therapy, acupuncture or pain medications—or even from epidural injections for pain—and now your doctor recommends open-back surgery, you owe it to yourself, like Peter Jacobsen and thousands of other LSI success stories, to research alternatives. Included in these success stories are a large percentage of LSI patients who have had failed back surgery in the past or have new spine conditions due to fusions. As part of its success story, LSI has added to its original Tampa, Florida location by opening a surgical facility in Scottsdale, Arizona in the beginning of 2009 and another center in Philadelphia at year’s end. Medical consultation facilities from Beverly Hills to South Florida offer additional locations for the people who come from around the world to meet with board-certified physicians to determine how to relieve their chronic back or neck pain.

PUBLISHER’S LETTER Dear Reader, One of the best reasons to read (subscribe) to all three duPont REGISTRY™ magazines (Automobiles, Homes and Boats) is to stay abreast of the marketplace for high-end luxury goods. While these markets do not move hand-in-hand, there is something to be said when there is action (or lack thereof) in one, two or three segments. Let’s focus on automobiles for a moment. 2009 ended up better than expected and that would indicate that 2010 will continue that trend. No fewer than one-half dozen auction records were broken making new ultimate values for only the very best cars. The bulk of the market was quiet, but very healthy. Gone are the days of “irrational exuberance” forcing prices for anything with curb appeal into the soon-to-fall stratosphere. Further, junk was selling for reduced junk prices. Homes, according to our sources, were much the same. There were relatively few bargain hunters that pursued deals. The very top-quality homes, with provenance, and “uniqueness” received steady action and some sales. Records were most likely not broken to any great extent. Over the next year, low interest rates will help the luxury homes market but not push it to new records by any means. Quite easily one can assume that, like cars, junk will sell for junk prices… maybe. Buyers are much, much more discerning. The key here, like cars, is supply. The number of classic, luxury, and exotic cars has not gone down. Nor has the number of truly luxurious homes. The number of buyers has. How to get in front of the buyers is what’s important. It’s no longer, show it and they will come. It is necessary to do something that differentiates the property from the rest. Surely, a two-inch square photo with twenty-five words of copy in the back of a newspaper says nothing about how special a property is. A cover image or two-page spread in the pages of the duPont REGISTRY™ clearly does. Think about it. The automobile market is on the way to improvement. The luxury homes market cannot be far behind. Don’t miss the opportunity that 2010 brings. Join us. Today.

aterfront – the top-of-the-line property choice By Reynolds Fuller

Regardless of your opinion on where the market stands, one thing remains the same—waterfront is still waterfront. There is only so much of it to go around. Making it the top-of-the-line choice when it comes to buying property. The waterfront options might seem endless, choosing from the New England coast, across to the California cliffs, down to the Florida beaches, and back up to the Southern lakeshores, but the availability of such places is finite. For the first time in years, buyers are being handed deals on silver platters, and they are starting to take advantage of what’s being offered. The market is in the palm of your hand. All that’s left to do is figure out where to look.

MARKETPLACE—WATERFRONT

THE REAL DEAL Commonly referred to as the O.C., Orange County is famous for its many oceanfront cities. Varying from the close-knit community of San Clemente to the low-key beach cottages of Laguna Beach to the extravagant estates of Newport Beach, each city offers different experiences and environments yet with one common thread—waterfront property. “Waterfront homes’ prices finally adjusted so you can get some really good deals,” says Lee Ann Canaday of Canaday Group/ RE/MAX Fine Homes, owner of the RE/MAX franchise in Newport Beach and Laguna Beach. “The deal is not just with the price but with lower tax bases too.” Among one of the many of Canaday’s good deals is an 8,000square-foot oceanfront estate with six bedrooms and five-anda-half baths in San Clemente. Canaday says this property is unique because it is in a gate-guarded community, which is very rare anymore for oceanfront properties, and it has a pool

and basement, which most oceanfront homes do not have either. Incredible two-story doors in the living room accentuate the home’s breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. Residents of this amazing community oftentimes spend their day at the community beach, pool, or park partaking in tennis, volleyball, or surfing and then finishing the night off barbequing around the beach fire pits. “There can’t be a better place to live,” Canaday says. “It’s absolutely incredible.”

YEAR-AROUND PERFECTION Not many places in the world can claim temperatures between 65 to 75 year around with no humidity or insects to damper the outdoor experience. Santa Barbara County happens to be one of the select few. Surrounded by mountains, valleys, beaches, and waterways, Santa Barbara and Montecito offer polo, horseback riding, hiking, biking, golf, tennis, as well as a variety of water sports. “Our area is so unique,” says Suzanne Perkins of Sotheby’s International

Realty. “With south-facing beaches we have calm oceans that are phenomenal for kayaking with virtually no wind.” Whether you’re on Padaro Lane or Fernald Point Lane, you’re virtually minutes to restaurants and shopping, Perkins says. And with more houses currently on the market, both prestigious Padaro and Fernald Point have waterfront listings available. On Padaro Lane, a 5,900-square-foot architectural workof-art estate takes openness to new heights with lack of walls throughout and glass from floor to ceiling. Behind the gates of Fernald Point Lane rests a North African and Mediterraneanstyled villa filled with top-of-the-line amenities and highestquality finishing touches. Now is the time to buy and the increased number of showings recently proves buyers are beginning to realize that, Perkins

says. “Looking ahead towards the new decade, buyers are embracing the positive changes in the market and are now reengaged in purchasing.”

CONNECTICUT’S CHANGE OF PACE Only 45 minutes outside of Manhattan, Fairfield County, Connecticut, provides residents with a calming and laidback atmosphere not found within the city limits. With 85 percent of Fairfield County’s residents commuting into New York, it is the ideal location for those seeking a slower-paced lifestyle along the shore without losing the sophistication associated with Manhattan. Wonderful cultural opportunities, such as museums, theater, high-end restaurants and shopping, are all available for your enjoyment, says Melanie Smith of Prudential Connecticut Realty.

www.duPontREGISTRY.com

A BUYERS GALLERY of FINE HOMES®

MARKETPLACE With more than 30 years experience in Fairfield County real estate, Smith says the property values, especially for waterfront homes, are not going to drop off like in other areas because it is a consistently higher-end area with sophisticated, successful people. “Waterfront is in a class of it’s own,” Smith says. “They’re holding their value more than other high, high-end properties.”

ATTRACTIVE TRENDS

One of Smith’s more elaborate waterfront listings is a turn-ofthe-century shingle-style house with deep moldings, beautiful landscaping, unbelievable construction quality, and unique architecture. This 11,100-square-foot, seven-bedroom, nineand-a-half-bath home boasts a deep-water dock, tiered terraces and infinity pool overlooking Southport Harbor and onto Long Island Sound. When it comes to waterfront, there is limited availability, Smith says. “They’re not making it anymore.”

Current market conditions have developed a large inventory of properties available for purchase, giving prospective buyers a wider selection and a longer time in the decision making process. “Waterfront properties in gated communities are the most desirable, but are also the most expensive, and they continue to retain their value in the future,” says Carol Ann Hewitt, President and Broker-Owner of Oxford Realty in Orlando.

Lakefront properties in Central Florida have always commanded the highest prices and commanded the attention of the most affluent prospects. Waterfront living here offers families the most attractive lifestyle, boating, water skiing, fishing and breathtaking vistas.

Acquiring older properties and remodeling them in order to capture panoramic waterfront vistas in more mature areas and meet the specific needs of the family is a popular trend in Central Florida. The owners recently renovated a 5,813square-foot waterfront home originally built in 1994, currently for sale with Oxford Realty. “This property is a typical example of one that has been completely remodeled with towering glass window-walls, which span the rear of the home, to capture the tranquility of the waterfront setting,” Hewitt says. The “new” house features a game-media room, a heated pool with fountains, sound and security systems, new baths and kitchen, flooring, architectural ceilings, and new marble drive and lakefront terraces.

DYNAMICALLY DIVERSIFIED The high-income demographics of South Florida may be the same, but along its coast is a diverse array of lifestyles. Boca Raton as well as Palm Beach provide beautiful beaches in

MARKETPLACE—WATERFRONT

socially and culturally affluent settings recognized throughout the world. While Fort Lauderdale, known as the boating capital of the world, and Miami, famous for its jet-set nightlife, are both considered popular tourist destinations. Niki Higgins of Seaside Properties Group in South Florida says, “Every realtor has had to restructure and rethink values in this brave new world.” Now with waterfront properties having bottomed out, it is a great time to buy. “I believe for a savvy buyer this is truly an exceptional time to buy,” Higgins says. “They’re able to get deals they haven’t been able to get in eight years.” Boca Raton’s most prestigious and luxurious oceanfront condominium, The Excelsior, currently has one of its 27 residences on the market. This professionally decorated and fully furnished residence features 4,295 square feet, three bedrooms, and four and a half baths as well as almost 10,000 square feet of outdoor terrace space looking out breathtaking ocean and lake views.

MARKETPLACE CENTRALLY DESIRED Orlando is the perfect place to live with excellent weather, shopping, and schools as well as being in close proximity to the beaches on both coasts and an international airport. The waterfront homes along the Butler Chain of Lakes in Southwest Orlando are the most desirable in all of Central Florida. And considering it is Central Florida, there are only so many waterfront properties available. Many of the properties are located in affluent subdivisions such as Isleworth, Lake Butler Sound, and Keene’s Pointe just to name a few. “The market is definitely showing signs of a forthcoming rebound, especially in the higher-end and lakefront property segments,” says Matt Tomaszewski of Premier Realty Partners.

Among the homes for sale along the lakeshores is a 16,920square-foot, six bedroom, and eight-bathroom estate. The authentic Mediterranean-style home is situated on a private peninsula on Lake Down with more than 1,100 feet of water frontage and a private gate leading to the house. “It sits in the most private, most desirable piece of land in Central Florida and cannot be duplicated,” Tomaszewski says. This stunning estate features a two-story grand Marble foyer with a handpainted rotunda ceiling and winding staircase, 5000-bottle wine cellar, travertine terraces around a heated pool with Roman balustrade lights and fountain, and a veranda with retractable motorized screens and gas fireplace.

TIMELESS BEAUTY With the Blue Ridge Mountains visible in the distance and 62 miles of shoreline, Lake Burton in Rabun County, Georgia, creates a tranquil environment for those seeking the easygoing charm only found in the South. Trout fishing, water skiing, jet skiing, and tubing are a few of the outdoor activities enjoyed by the lake’s visitors. Clayton, the lake’s closest town, offers golf, antique shopping, and quaint restaurants. Being only an hour and a half away from Atlanta and with the

lake’s recent increased visibility, the area’s real estate market has remained steady, although slower, during these turbulent times. “We’re making a comeback,” says Julie Barnett of Harry Norman Realtors. “The buyers market has a lot more activity, a lot more offers.” Among the properties for sale at Lake Burton is a stunning waterfront home with extraordinary design, materials, and workmanship. “The builder/designer incorporated an antique piece in each room of the house,” Barnett says. “It has incredible views from every room.”

White Stallion Hidden Valley, California By Elyse Umlauf-Garneau

Karen Crystal and Nicki LaPorta of Ewing & Associates Sotheby's International Realty in Los Angeles paint a word picture of superlatives to describe White Stallion. Plush, exquisite and captivating are among the words they choose to depict the 16,000-square-foot estate in Hidden Valley, California. Conveniently located midway between downtown Los Angeles and Santa Barbara in Hidden Valley, one of the most exclusive areas in the United States, situated within minutes of Westlake Village, adjacent to the world famous Sherwood Country Club and a short drive to the beautiful beaches in Malibu where life is not just lived it is experienced! After all, the outdoor gardens, reminiscent of Versailles, and a design that mirrors a grand French chateau, along with überluxury interiors designed by Roy Sklarin make the property a one-of-a-kind find. White Stallion, perched on a promontory on twenty-three acres, is reached via bucolic roads in an exclusive enclave. “You drive in through winding roads and see barns, equestrian properties, and estates on twenty-plus acres and you just don’t feel like you’re in California,” comments Crystal. “It

feels more like rural England,” adds LaPorta. Though the location is remote enough to deliver privacy and seclusion, it’s near enough to civilization to allow residents reasonably quick access to the entertainment and cultural offerings of Los Angeles. And given that the area is populated by the who’s who

A BUYERS GALLERY of FINE HOMES® of the movie industry, entrepreneurs, and high-profile sports figures seeking a sanctuary, security is a given and the remoteness of the environment keeps the paparazzi and curiosity-seekers at bay. The estate’s grounds feature elaborate gardens, a tennis facility, and an infinity pool, as well as access to trails for mountain biking and horseback riding. The ambiance of lush lawns, brilliant flower beds, and an orchard is punctuated by limestone walkways and hand-carved limestone fountains and planters. The interior is distinguished by custom-designed furniture and spacious rooms designed with an eye toward entertainment and comfort. Public spaces recall the ambiance of traditional European design, with features like crown moldings, custom quartz rock crystal chandeliers, Breaumanier limestone flooring, and hand-carved limestone fireplace mantles. Private space, such as the 3,800-square-foot master suite, offer an environment akin to what’s available in the penthouse suite of a sleek, luxury hotel. And more public areas, such as the home theater, are equally grand. The theater includes motorized leather seats, velvet fabric, custom millwork, and a powder room with walls covered in velvet and onyx floors and countertops. Among the estate’s other notable features are a 2,000-bottle wine cellar, multi-tiered outdoor verandas, an outdoor kitchen, a children’s playground, and a design that capitalizes on the views of the grounds and the Santa Monica Mountains. The $27-million asking price includes the Sklarin design touches, such as custom furniture, and new owners could literally arrive with their clothes and toothbrush and immediately start enjoying White Stallion. And even with its opulence, it delivers a cozy family setting, according to Crystal, who says, “It’s an environment of elegance and tranquility.”

SKI AND MOUNTAIN PROPERTIES

M By Elyse Umlauf-Gareanu

ountain Luxury Trumps Chilly Economy

News about lackluster job numbers, foreclosures statistics, states’ dire budgets and a chilly housing market is relentless. Then there’s the silver lining. That’s the focus of several real estate practitioners in mountain areas.

FEEDING THE SOUL Some real estate practitioners are seeing that attractive prices and a wealth of options are bringing prospects who have been waiting for the bottom of the market. Such is the case for Gary Lohrman, who believes that the

SKI AND MOUNTAIN PROPERTIES

Evergreen, Colorado market likely has bottomed out. “We’re most likely not going to see much of an increase in values in 2010, but I do expect the demand to be greater, with inventory lessening as we start to see some light at the end of this tunnel,” he comments. Now there’s an opportunity, he thinks, for those who have been pondering a significant life change. And he’s come across many such people who are realizing that where they live has a bearing on their happiness. Lohrman, of Fuller Sotheby’s International Realty, Greenwood Village, Colorado, has just the property for such buyers looking for a vacation home or a new primary residence. The six-

bathroom, which has been hand-painted with a very elaborate mosaic design,” he comments.

Among the 10,292-square-foot custom property’s features are a wine cellar, recreation space, a workout room, a home theater and an area for kids with space for homeschooling.

Lohrman is witnessing what he views as a shift in values among buyers. “People are thankful for and focused on the real stuff of life, not material things,” he observes. “And they’re realizing that where they live matters.” As a result, some are seeking a Colorado mountain lifestyle that can feed the soul. “One draw for our area is that it’s a healthy place to live, you can be outside a lot and we have an average of 320 days of sunshine,” he says. And unlike other spots, he points out, “Winter is bearable.”

Vast windows, including those in the master suite, provide views of Rocky Mountain splendor, according to Lohrman, that involve snowcapped mountain peaks and an outdoor waterfall. In addition, the property offers a separate 2,220square-foot carriage house or guest quarters and an 800square-foot apartment that is perfect for a nanny or caretakers. A feature unique to the house is art and faux painting that took an artist one year to complete. “This tasteful work appears on walls throughout the home and in a special

MOUNTAIN AWE Others seeking a lifestyle change are looking to the mountains of South Carolina, according to Holly Dahl of BeverlyHanks & Associates who observes, “There are great deals

available, including homes for sale that today couldn’t be built for the same price.” One community, Marietta, is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains and offers rural living, along with tremendous opportunity for outdoor activities, such as hiking, rock climbing, mountain biking, fishing and golf. One neighborhood, Garden Gate, features twenty homes sites that offer an alternative to the gated golf communities around town. “Two new homes are available at half the cost per square foot of nearby gated golf communities, giving those not into the golf scene a way to enjoy the same kind of beautiful setting and a beautiful home,” says Dahl. One 5,999-square-foot property combines both traditional and mountain aesthetics, with features, such as rock columns, elegant wood trim, chair rails in the dining room, and soaring ceilings. The house has dual master suites--one on the first level and one on the second——and each bedroom has a unique theme. For instance, one features vaulted ceilings, another has a secret playroom, and the first-floor master suite looks out to the mountains and includes a spa-like bathroom.

Also on the main level is a 1,300-square-foot space that can be used for entertaining, as a theater and recreation area or as a man cave. The design and orientation of the house exploit views of the mountains in the front and of an outdoor waterfall at the rear. The exterior space also features a fireplace, a spacious patio and a rock path leading to a hot tub. When prospective owners buy a property in the area, they get more than just a home. What’s a bonus is the nature, the calm and the recreation. Dahl, who relocated from a large metro area five years ago, says, “This really is one of the friendliest places I’ve been. It’s calm, there’s no road rage, people don’t honk their horns and they actually look you in the eye and say hello. It is a great place to decompress. Every day, I’m in awe of where I live.”

SERENITY FALLS Rollie Jordan, a Broker with the Kentwood Company in Denver, describes her new listing, Serenity Falls, a featured property of the duPont REGISTRY, as the most spectacular home that she has listed in her twenty-year career in luxury real estate. “It’s a one-of-a-kind, world class property with highend security, privacy with a sense of peace and tranquility in a

SKI AND MOUNTAIN PROPERTIES magnificent Colorado natural mountain setting,” comments Jordan. The property set on 32 acres in Evergreen, Colorado, is an estate that delights all the senses and places residents in an environment teeming with natural beauty, wildlife, babbling brooks and spectacular mountain views. Waterfalls serve as its centerpiece and water cascades from a mountaintop into streams and brooks lit by LED lights at night. Serenity Falls’ design truly capitalizes on the exterior amenities. For instance, the main part of the house has Nano doors that completely open up to allow free access between the indoors and the outdoor living areas, which includes a complete outdoor kitchen with a wood-burning pizza oven and a Viking grill. Several architectural features and materials work in concert in the main house to create what Jordan describes as a Zen-like ambiance. Among them are pair of 17th-century wooden doors from a Spanish monastery, exotic wood floors, Asian wood carvings, alder beams and banisters and a towering stone fireplace that brings visual punch to a spectacular great room. Highlights of the main house include a grand master suite with 12-foot-high doors, views to the waterfall, and a sumptu-

ous bathroom with a spa tub, plasma television and a closet featuring Irpinia cabinetry. The property services passionate cooks with a kitchen equipped with state-of-the-art appliances, such as dual Miele dishwashers, Sub-Zero refrigerators and a Wolfe cook top and ovens. A $6 million security system, controlled by smart house panels throughout the property, offers the most hightech security that money can buy. And the property provides not only a private retreat, but also a playground. For instance, it has its own stable and equestrian center, a gym and a half-size basketball court. The basketball court is easily convertible to other uses, such as a recording studio for musicians, studio space for an artist or a show space for car enthusiasts. “I have had clients and brokers from all over the world at this property, and they all feel that it’s in a league of its own,” observes Jordan. “Everything makes you feel peaceful and calm and secure here.”

FEATURED PROPERTY THE RIVERSTONE ESTATE —

by Jacquelyn S. Keyes

Nestled in the majestic Allegheny Mountains of Western Pennsylvania, the RiverStone Estate provides a rare opportunity to acquire an impeccably restored mansion with state of the art amenities, stunning architecture and exquisite grounds. This extraordinary 1200 +/- acre riverfront property is located at the confluence of the Clarion and Allegheny Rivers in Foxburg, Pennsylvania. One of the largest privately owned estates in Pennsylvania, RiverStone is renowned for its breathtaking views and remarkable craftsmanship. With 26 stunning structures including extensive equestrian facilities, greenhouse, carriage house, aviary, additional residences and event center, the Estate provides a tranquil setting for a relaxing escape to the country. This prestigious property was first owned by the prominent Philadelphia Fox Family, descendants of George M. Fox the founder of the Quaker religion. Distinguished by the spectacular exterior and interior architectural elements, the Mansion was originally constructed in 1828, with a major addition in 1845, and the north wing erected in 1877, by the Fox Family. Arthur and Patricia Steffee undertook an extensive restoration and expansion of the mansion in 2000. The manor was magnificently crafted and features a distinctive tiger maple staircase, gourmet kitchen with breakfast room, a conservatory, master suite with terrace and grand view of the Allegheny River. The house has 17 operational fireplaces, handicap accessible guest suite, two additional bedrooms, formal living and dining rooms, library, music room, as well as an English Pub Style game room, bar, and wine cellar. In order to complete these architecturally astounding renovations, which included the construction of both a north and south pond, the foundation of the original structure was vastly improved. Complete with copper roof and downspouts, the mansion is a convergence of innovation and historic beauty. Magnificent year round living or simply for a weekend or summer getaway, this stunning Estate overlooks the nationally designated Wild and Scenic Allegheny and Clarion Rivers. The nearby Village of Foxburg, located just an hour and a half from both Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Cleveland, Ohio, provides unlimited opportunities for entertainment, arts and travel. This charming town is home to the 9-hole Foxburg Country Club, recognized as the oldest continuously operated golf course in the United States. With spectacular views of the river, the Allegheny Grille and Foxburg Inn offer luxurious lodging and dining. Entertainment opportunities include touring and sampling the specialty wines of the Foxburg Wine Cellars, attending performances at the Allegheny RiverStone Center for the Performing Arts, or visiting the American Golf Hall of Fame. Some of the many recreational adventures in Foxburg and at the RiverStone Estate include hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, boating, horseback riding, Segway tours, and cross country skiing.

Healing Mind, Body and Spirit… Pa l m Pa r t n e r s R e c o v e r y C e n t e r For Chemical Dependency, Detox and Residential Treatment Dedicated and Committed to Helping Those Who Are Ready To Make A Change For Life

(888) 838-9329 | www.PalmPartners.com Combining state of the art neurobiological treatment strategies, psychotherapy, yoga, hypnosis, acupuncture, and nutritional counseling with the long-trusted elements of the 12 Steps recovery program, the Palm Partners rehabilitation center offers a variety of therapeutic services to cure the ravages of drug and alcohol addiction. Confident its personalized relapse prevention techniques provide individuals with life management skills to maximize their greatest potential, Palm Partners brings about extraordinary clinical resolution by creating a multifaceted culture and offers patients a guarantee that is unique in the treatment industry. While this rehab center is known for its effective 30 and 60 day treatment programs, anyone who completes the 90 day residential and one year coaching recovery program, can return to Palm Partners free of charge if they relapse. It’s a guarantee based on the premise that this Delray Beach, Florida care center will facilitate total life changing successes. Serenely situated near the beach, amid lush palm trees, pools, and garden style condos, complete with full kitchens and cable TV. The 100 staff member complex accentuates comfort throughout the healing process. The center was founded in 1994 by two recovering alcoholics and drug addicts, who were all too familiar with the pain and challenges faced by the afflicted, so they have created a facility where medically monitored detox treatment on a one to one basis with 20 specialists is only part of the cure. At Palm Partners there is a holistic approach to patient care. Believing connections with recuperating addicts is integral to long term success, the center incorporates the statistically proven 12 Steps Recovery model which promotes reaching out to former addicts, and harnessing the collective strength of being sober. But enhancing that time honored 12 Step treatment philosophy, Palm Partners utilizes Eastern and Western methods of healing. Such a distinctive approach translates into extensive counseling with family members, tai chi, yoga, and

meditation, which emphasizes “getting well naturally” without dependence producing medications. Hypnotherapy is also used, with an emphasis on EMDR, or rapid-eye movement sound/light techniques to promote trauma resolution. By providing this combination of remedial strategies, Palm Partners can tailor programs to individual needs, and this gives the center far more flexibility in resolving traumas than most tradition-bound hospitals. While treating the underlying causes of addiction, Palm Partners takes innumerable measures to assure the security and confidentiality of its clients. Recovery demands a safe, comforting environment for patients, along with family members who are encouraged to assist in the therapeutic effort and the licensed, highly trained personnel here are devoted to fostering a nurturing atmosphere. That supportive environment is at the heart of all the center’s treatment programs. If an individual only has the ability to spend 30 days here, Palm Partners offers several, individually designed aftercare programs which monitor the success of out-patients who have completed formalized chemical dependency drug alcohol treatment. One prescription even includes “coaching” for 6 to 12 months, an approach that guarantees a continuing, nurturing connection between the center and patients through almost weekly phone calls and goal setting. Featuring all the fundamental elements of Palm Partners’ other therapy models, this Platinum or “Four Seasons” styled experience is specifically suited for executive and high profile clients. Befitting a setting that is just minutes away from white sandy beaches, the Platinum program offers more affluent clients private, luxury homes with a swimming pool, spa treatment, catered meals, Jacuzzi tub, and concierge service to ensure the utmost comfort.

To review the details of this highly exclusive program, and its premium on confidentiality, it’s recommended that individuals or family members call Palm Partners’ admission counselors at (888) 838-9329 today. www.palmpartners.com
