Seniors, disabled should review medical options By Tammy Proctor Post & Voice Staff Writer Senior citizens in Pender County may be entitled to reduced prescription drug premiums, according to Kay Warner the Seniors Health Insurance Information Program coordinator. War ner told the Pender County Commissioners at their Sept. 15 meeting that seniors and the disabled on Medicare with limited incomes and assets may qualify for the program Extra Help or the Medicare Savings Program. The Extra Help Program reduces or eliminates the Medicare prescription drug plan premiums and helps with or eliminates prescriptions drug deductibles and
co-payments. “There are cost effective programs out there,” said Warner. The open enrollment period is Oct. 15 through Dec. 7. Depending on income and assets, seniors and disabled could save up to $310 in deductibles and could pay as little as $2 to $6.30 per prescription co-pay, said Warner. The Medicare Savings Program pays the Medicare Part B premiums as well as helps with medical coverage deductibles and co-payments. “It’s important to consider plans,” said Warner. For more information about the cost savings programs contact Pender Adult Services or the Topsail Senior Center. Information regarding the Medicare Savings Program

The Town of Topsail Beach received seven applicants to fill two positions on the Beach, Inlet and Sound (BIS) committee. Through anonymous ballot votes, commissioners selected Jack Cozort and Jerry Patton to serve on the BIS committee. “We will get you running fast,” said Howard Braxton, mayor of Topsail Beach. He informed Cozort and Patten that their first BIS meeting was the following Saturday. Commissioner Tom Eggleston said he telephoned the applicants before the Sept. 10 vote on the two new appointees. “Everyone I talked to is open to new ideas,” he said, adding, “Each one had good credentials.” Commissioner Larry Combs said he was pleased seven people applied for the BIS committee. “I was impressed with the seven folks who applied to serve on the BIS committee,” said Combs. “I hope those who are not a part of a committee will volunteer in other areas.” The commissioners were impressed with the credentials of each applicant and commended them for volunteering. The applicants were urged to match their talents and career strengths to any of the town’s committees. “I urge the candidates to remember to run for office,” said Commissioner Julian Bond.

Acute Spinal Care Wilmington is now offering
Disc Decompression Therapy!
Dr. Joseph W. Davis, a Kennedy Certified Decompression practitioner, utilizes the Kennedy Neural-Flex Decompression System for the non-surgical treatment of spinal injuries and spinal pain. Decompression Therapy effectively relieves the pain associated with disc herniation, degenerative discs, stenosis, posterior facet, sciatica, headaches, and other spinal related syndromes, by reducing the pressure on spinal discs and facet joints through unloading created by distraction and positioning. Inversion therapy is also available for thoracic pain and symptoms. Spinal discs are avascular structures, meaning that they do not have an adequate blood supply like muscles in the body do. The lack of blood supply means that discs in the spine heal naturally at a very slow rate and current research states that spinal disc heal in 300-500 days without treatment. By employing Decompression Therapy, an osmotic interchange of fluid can be used to speed healing of the disc by up to 71% and heal that disc in less than 100 days. We also offer massage therapy to increase flexibility, decrease fibrotic adhesions, assist strengthening and stabilization of affected areas.
We stepped out for a moment.
Decompression Therapy begins with a series of sessions, typically 2-3 times per week. Each session is approximately 8-12 minutes. The extent and severity of each individual’s symptoms will determine the amount of sessions that will be necessary. Most patients experience relief in just 1-2 treatments!
We will return by 1:30.
Disc Decompression for patients experiencing pain in: Low Back Pain (Compression Symptoms, Herniated Discs (Extrusions, Protrusions, Bulges, etc.), Neck Pain, Headaches, Sciatica, Degenerative Discs, Thoracic Pain
