BNI Business Exchange Celebrates 10 Years in Boca Raton!

The BNI (Business Network International) Boca Raton Wednesday morning chapter, also known as BNI Business Exchange, has 46 members representing almost 40 professions from Palm Beach and Broward Counties. Last week, the chapter celebrated its 10th birthday with a festive breakfast at its weekly meeting at Maggiano's.

With cupcakes "designed" by Debra Juliano, ASID, the chapter toasted original members Brian Lipshy and Jeff Gordon, along with other members who have been in the chapter for five or more years.

Once a small group of a dozen or so professionals and business owners, the chapter has outgrown three local meeting places, finally landing at Maggiano's in 2004. The members regularly pass 150 - 200 referrals a month, giving them the advantage of having a sales force working for them every day.

For more photos from the morning, please visit the website.

Dr Marrotte offers Boca Raton Migraine Sufferers relief

Migraine Headache Suffers: There may be an answer !

Dr. Richard Marrotte, Board Certified Optometric Physician, now offers a unique, all natural product for patients prone to recurring headaches. "People who are prone to headaches appear to have different brain chemistry from those of us who rarely experience any head discomfort," reports Dr. Marrotte.

Sometimes the severity of head discomfort is not fully realized until it results in nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light, noise or smells. For this reason, it is extremely important for those who often experience head discomfort to take regular, daily steps to minimize the chances of headache.

Two ways to help maintain head comfort are to maintain normal serotonin levels, a chemical messenger in the brain which helps regulate the diameter of the blood vessels. Another way to maintain head comfort is to help your body optimize proper circulation.

Headrest™ Head Comfort Formula is specially formulated with Riboflavin (vitamin B2), magnesium, feverfew and butterbur, which work synergistically to help the body maintain healthy platelet activity thereby, reducing the frequency, severity and duration of head discomfort. Headrest™ helps maintain optimal blood flow to the brain, promotes normal sinus function, supports healthy blood vessel dilation, promotes healthy respiratory functions, which all help to maintain head comfort or work to support head comfort.

In clinical trials in both Germany and the U.S., butterbur reduced the incidence of head cavity discomfort by up to 61 percent. Headrest™ also supplies a healthy level of magnesium, which correlates with brain health (magnesium deficiency is common among head ache sufferers). In addition to promoting head comfort, Headrest™ supports a healthy immune system and romotes healthy cognitive function.*

If you or someone you know, suffers from migraine headaches, sinus headaches or tension headaches, give Headrest™ a try.
