About Balance Counseling Highlights Depression Therapy Support for Adults and Teens

LONGMONT, CO - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
About Balance Counseling, a mental health service provider based in Longmont, Colorado, is drawing attention to the ways depression affects daily life and the role that structured counseling can play in helping adults and teens manage emotional challenges. The practice is reinforcing its message that individuals do not need to wait until symptoms become severe before seeking support.
Depression often shows up quietly across the routines of everyday life. Common experiences include persistent low mood, loss of interest in activities that once brought enjoyment, low motivation, changes in sleep, difficulty concentrating, and a growing sense of isolation. For many people, these patterns build gradually, leaving them feeling disconnected from work, relationships, and the ordinary activities that once felt manageable.

The practice notes that depression looks different from person to person. Some adults describe feeling emotionally flat or exhausted, while teens may show shifts in academic focus, social withdrawal, or changes in behavior at home and school. Because the signs vary so widely, About Balance Counseling encourages both adults and teens to consider support earlier rather than later.
Depression therapy is designed to help individuals better understand the patterns that contribute to emotional difficulties. Through counseling, individuals can develop healthier coping strategies, improve emotional awareness, and begin making manageable changes over time. The approach centers on practical steps rather than overwhelming expectations, allowing people to move forward at a pace that feels realistic.
"Depression rarely announces itself in obvious ways, which is part of what makes it so difficult to address," said David Ejchorszt of About Balance Counseling. "Many of the adults and teens who come in describe a slow drift away from the things they care about. The work in therapy is often about helping them notice those patterns and rebuild a sense of connection, one manageable step at a time."
While depression remains the central focus, the practice acknowledges that anxiety frequently overlaps with it. Individuals may experience both at once, and counseling can address the ways these concerns influence one another. This dual awareness allows individuals to explore the full picture of what they are experiencing rather than treating each concern in isolation.
About Balance Counseling continues to serve the Longmont community and surrounding areas, offering both in-person and online sessions to accommodate different schedules and preferences. The practice positions itself as a steady resource for adults seeking help with depression, with teen therapy available for younger individuals navigating self-esteem, academic pressure, and emotional change.
"Seeking counseling is not a sign that things have reached a breaking point," Ejchorszt added. "It can simply be a way to gain clarity and support before challenges deepen. That message matters for adults and teens alike."


About Balance Counseling is a mental health service provider in Longmont, Colorado, offering counseling and therapy for adults and teens. Services include depression therapy, anxiety therapy, teen therapy, online therapy, grief counseling, and career counseling, among others. The practice is led by David Ejchorszt, a certified clinical anxiety treatment professional with more than ten years of experience working with adults, teens, and couples. The practice is LGBTQ+ friendly and veteran-owned.

Study Ranks Dental Veneer Clinics in Turkey for International Patients

August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Prismoon LLC, a digital marketing agency based in McLean, Virginia, has published a methodology-based ranking of international-facing dental veneer clinics in Turkey, naming a five-clinic shortlist drawn from more than 40 clinics under seven weighted criteria. The analysis is built from publicly available information, and its scoring model, screening stages and source-quality tiers are published in the study.
The analysis covered more than 40 clinics marketing services to international patients. Approximately 15 met the published inclusion threshold, which considered publicly verifiable review activity, veneer-specific information and licensing details available through public sources. Seven weighted criteria then produced the shortlist. The named clinics are Maltepe Dental Clinic in Istanbul, Dental Centre Turkey in Antalya and Fethiye, Sevil Smile in Antalya, Attelia Dental in Antalya, and WestDent Clinic in Izmir.

The criteria and their weightings are published in full. Reviews and patient satisfaction carry 20 percent, clinical philosophy and materials 18 percent, in-house laboratory and technology 15 percent, accreditation and licensing 15 percent, value for money 12 percent, longevity or years in service 10 percent, and international presence and aftercare 10 percent.
Published research reports high long-term survival for ceramic veneers, with outcomes varying by material, preparation design, bonding substrate and follow-up period. A systematic review and meta-analysis by Morimoto and colleagues, published in the Journal of Dental Research in 2016, reported cumulative survival of about 89 percent for laminate veneers and about 95 percent over a decade for glass-ceramic veneers. A review by Alothman and Bamasoud, published in the Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences in 2018, reported survival near 96 percent at 10 years for minimal-preparation designs. These figures describe study populations, not expected outcomes for any patient or clinic. Prismoon's full report identifies the peer-reviewed source supporting its clinical discussion.
In-house laboratory and technology was scored as its own category at 15 percent rather than a pass or fail gate. Four of the five shortlisted clinics operate a laboratory the study was able to verify, and the fifth advertises one that could not be confirmed from primary sources. Reviews were treated as one signal among several rather than a star rating taken at face value, with cross-checks on recency, origin and named-clinician detail.
Reviews were treated as one signal among several rather than a star rating taken at face value, with cross-checks on recency, origin and named-clinician detail. The report notes that patients comparing clinics remotely may face information gaps, and that public reviews and marketing materials do not replace a consultation with a qualified dental professional and verification of credentials.
"The value here is not the ranking itself but the reasoning behind it," said Marc Oneil, marketing director at Prismoon LLC. "Every criterion and every weight is published, so a reader who weighs these factors differently can re-rank the field using the same inputs. Where a data point could not be independently verified, we flagged it in the text rather than presenting it as fact."
The study was published in July 2026 as part of the firm's digital market analysis series, alongside an accompanying methodology and study report covering research design, timeline, scoring model, verification protocol and source tiers. The firm said its full methodology, including the seven criteria and their weightings, is publicly available at https://prismoon.com/top-5-dental-veneer-clinics-in-turkey-for-international-patients/.

Wilmington Dermatology Center Expands Access to Regenerative Hair Restoration While Helping Advance the Future of Aesthetic Medicine

August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Wilmington Dermatology Center (WDC), a nationally recognized medical and cosmetic dermatology practice, is expanding its advanced treatment offerings with Acorn YOU™ Secretome for hair restoration while continuing its involvement in clinical research supporting emerging aesthetic technologies, including the investigational neuromodulator Relfydess™.
Led by board-certified dermatologist Rosalyn George, M.D., Wilmington Dermatology Center combines medical expertise, aesthetic experience and clinical research to give patients in southeastern North Carolina access to innovative, evidence-informed treatment options.

“Dermatology is constantly evolving, and our responsibility is to carefully evaluate new technologies and understand where they may genuinely benefit our patients,” said Dr. George. “Whether we are studying a new injectable or introducing a personalized regenerative option for hair loss, our focus remains the same: patient safety, sound science and natural-looking results.”
Now available at Wilmington Dermatology Center, Acorn YOU™ Secretome is a personalized, cell-derived treatment designed to support healthier, fuller-looking hair.
The process begins with the collection of a small sample of the patient’s intact hair follicles. Stem cells isolated from those follicles are cultured in a controlled laboratory environment and used to create a personalized secretome—a concentrated mixture of the naturally occurring growth factors, exosomes, peptides and signaling molecules released by the patient’s own cells.
Unlike treatments involving donor-derived materials, the Acorn product is created from the individual patient’s biology. The resulting personalized product is used as part of a customized treatment plan intended to support scalp health, existing hair follicles and natural hair-renewal processes.
Acorn may be considered for men and women experiencing concerns such as, thinning hair, early or progressive hair loss, reduced hair density, age-related changes in hair growth, and increased shedding or weakened growth cycles.
Depending on the patient’s condition and goals, Dr. George and the WDC team may recommend Acorn independently or as part of a broader hair-restoration plan involving platelet-rich plasma, prescription therapies or other complementary treatments.
Because hair loss can be influenced by genetics, hormones, inflammation, aging, nutrition and underlying medical conditions, every WDC patient receives an individualized evaluation before treatment is recommended.
In addition to expanding its regenerative hair-restoration services, Wilmington Dermatology Center remains actively involved in clinical research examining emerging dermatologic and aesthetic treatments.
Dr. George participated in clinical research involving relabotulinumtoxinA, known internationally by the brand name Relfydess. Developed by Galderma, Relfydess is a ready-to-use liquid neuromodulator studied for the temporary improvement of moderate-to-severe frown lines and crow’s feet in adults.
Galderma’s Phase III READY clinical development program enrolled more than 1,900 participants. The company reported that some study participants noticed an effect as early as the first day following treatment and that improvements were sustained for as long as six months in some participants.
Relfydess has been approved in 33 international markets and launched in more than 20. It remains investigational and unavailable for treatment in the United States.
On July 1, 2026, Galderma announced that it had received a Complete Response Letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration concerning manufacturing-site inspection observations and analytical-method optimization. According to Galderma, the FDA did not identify deficiencies involving the safety or efficacy portions of the application, and the company intends to continue working toward a potential U.S. approval.
Wilmington Dermatology Center will continue monitoring the regulatory process. No appointment, waiting-list placement or mention of Relfydess constitutes an offer of treatment unless and until the product receives FDA approval and becomes commercially available in the United States.
“Participating in clinical research gives us direct insight into how an emerging treatment performs, how patients respond and where it may eventually fit within aesthetic practice,” Dr. George said. “That experience helps us evaluate innovation thoughtfully instead of simply adopting something because it is new.”
Dr. George is certified by the American Board of Dermatology and is a fellow and Media Expert team member of the American Academy of Dermatology. After graduating magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from Virginia Tech, she earned her medical degree from Virginia Commonwealth University, where she was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. She later served as chief resident at Penn State University Hershey Medical Center.
Her professional experience includes serving as a national trainer and Facial Aesthetics Board member for Allergan Aesthetics, the maker of BOTOX® Cosmetic and JUVÉDERM®. She has also served as a speaker, trainer or professional partner for organizations and brands including Allergan, Galderma, Cartessa, Merz, Solta Medical, SENTÉ and the Women’s Dermatologic Society.
Wilmington Dermatology Center has been recognized among the top 1% of Botox Cosmetic practices nationwide. The practice offers medical dermatology, injectable treatments, laser and energy-based procedures, body treatments, regenerative hair-restoration options and clinical research opportunities.
“Experience matters in aesthetic medicine, but so does remaining curious,” Dr. George added. “Our patients benefit from a team that has extensive experience with established treatments while continuing to study what may come next.”
Patients interested in Acorn hair restoration can schedule a complimentary cosmetic consultation with Wilmington Dermatology Center. A typical Acorn hair-restoration plan may include five to six treatments, with a current investment of $4,500. Treatment recommendations, candidacy, timelines and results vary by patient.
Patients interested in wrinkle-relaxing treatments may also schedule a consultation to discuss currently available options, including Botox Cosmetic and Dysport®. Relfydess is not currently approved or available in the United States.
Wilmington Dermatology Center is located at 710 Military Cutoff Road, Suite 320, Wilmington, NC 28405.
To request an appointment, call 910-256-4350 or visit WilmingtonDermatologyCenter.com.
Founded by board-certified dermatologist Rosalyn George, M.D., Wilmington Dermatology Center provides comprehensive medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatology services to patients throughout Wilmington, Wrightsville Beach, Hampstead, Carolina Beach and surrounding communities in southeastern North Carolina.


The practice combines personalized patient care with advanced technology, extensive injectable expertise and participation in clinical research. Its services include medical dermatology, skin cancer evaluation, cosmetic injectables, laser treatments, body procedures, skincare and regenerative hair-restoration options.

Bakke Norman Releases Guidance on Well-Drafted Employee Handbooks for Wisconsin Businesses

NEW RICHMOND, WI - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Bakke Norman has released new guidance highlighting the importance of well-drafted employee handbooks for businesses operating in Wisconsin. The insights, shared through the firm’s blog on June 1, 2026, address how these documents serve as essential tools for establishing workplace expectations, ensuring legal compliance, and reducing potential disputes in an evolving regulatory environment.
Employee handbooks function as foundational resources that communicate policies clearly to both management and staff. For Wisconsin employers, a thoughtfully prepared handbook helps promote consistency in handling issues such as attendance, leave requests, conduct standards, and complaint procedures. Without clear written guidance, businesses risk inconsistent application of rules that can lead to claims of unfair treatment or discrimination.
The guidance emphasizes that handbooks should reflect Wisconsin-specific legal requirements alongside federal obligations. Topics often covered include equal employment opportunity policies, anti-harassment procedures, wage payment practices, overtime classifications, personnel record access, and accommodations for disabilities. Policies tailored to the business’s industry, size, and operations prove more effective than generic templates, which may contain provisions unenforceable in Wisconsin.
Generic online handbooks frequently include policies drafted for states with significantly different employment laws, may omit Wisconsin-specific requirements, or include provisions that unintentionally expose an employer to liability. A handbook should reflect how the employer actually operates - not merely how another business operates.
Bakke Norman attorneys note that handbooks can strengthen an employer’s position during disputes by demonstrating that expectations were communicated and followed consistently. For example, detailed policies on timekeeping, overtime approval, and confidentiality help defend against wage-and-hour claims or protect proprietary information.
Equally important is what an employee handbook should not say. Wisconsin recognizes the doctrine of at-will employment, but poorly drafted handbook language can unintentionally create contractual obligations or alter the employment relationship. Every handbook should include carefully drafted disclaimers stating that the handbook is not an employment contract, that employment remains at will unless modified by a written agreement, and that the employer reserves the right to modify policies as business needs change.
Regular review and updates remain critical as employment laws change. Issues involving remote work, technology use, social media, use of personal devices, and data protection require ongoing attention. Businesses that fail to align handbooks with current practices or statutes may face increased liability when policies are ignored or inconsistently enforced.
“An employee handbook represents more than an administrative formality,” said Bryan Tillman, attorney at Bakke Norman. “When properly developed, it establishes uniform standards that support consistent management decisions and help protect the business while clearly setting employee expectations and fostering a positive workplace culture.” However, even the best employee handbook provides little protection if supervisors fail to enforce its policies consistently. Managers should receive periodic training regarding the handbook’s policies, documentation, expectations, and appropriate responses to employee complaints. Consistent enforcement is often just as important as the language contained in the handbook itself.
The firm’s employment law practice supports clients in drafting, reviewing, and updating these documents to match their specific needs. Attorneys work with businesses across Northwest Wisconsin to customize policies for manufacturing, professional services, retail, and other sectors. This includes addressing considerations for exempt and non-exempt employees, independent contractors, and multi-location operations.
Tillman continued, “An employee handbook should evolve as the business evolves. As companies adopt new technology, expand into additional locations, or add new benefit programs, their handbooks should be reviewed to ensure it accurately reflects current operations and continue to serve as a practical risk management tool.”
Bakke Norman’s guidance comes at a time when many businesses in the region are navigating workforce challenges and regulatory updates. The firm’s educational efforts, including blog publications on employment topics, aim to help clients stay informed of legal developments.
In addition to employment law, Bakke Norman provides comprehensive services across civil litigation, business transactions, debtor-creditor relations, personal injury, criminal defense, municipal law, tax law, estate planning, and probate. The firm’s integrated team approach allows clients to address interconnected legal needs efficiently.
Founded in 1985 by Gary Bakke, George Norman, and Tom Schumacher, Bakke Norman began in the historic New Richmond Heritage Center. The firm has grown to include offices in New Richmond, Baldwin, Menomonie, and Eau Claire. This multi-location presence enables attorneys to serve individuals, businesses, and municipalities throughout Northwest Wisconsin.


The firm has been recognized as one of the Best Law Firms in America by U.S. News & World Report and maintains a commitment to high professional standards in its practice.

Crack'd Kitchen Announces New VIP Program: An Overview of How It Works

August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Crack'd Kitchen has rolled out a loyalty program called Crack'd VIP, now active at every location and across the brand's online ordering channels. The program is free to sign up for and runs on a points system: money spent on food and drinks earns points, which can later be applied toward menu items.
The basic mechanics will look familiar to anyone who has used a coffee shop or restaurant rewards card before. A guest enrolls once, then earns points on qualifying purchases going forward. As the point balance grows, it can be redeemed for items from the menu — breakfast sandwiches, coffee drinks, and other regular items. Additional perks and member-only offers become available at higher point totals, with rewards varying based on a member’s accumulated points.
Enrollment happens in one of two places. Guests can sign up via the account portal linked from the Crack'd VIP page on the company website or through the Crack'd Kitchen mobile app, available on both iPhone and Android devices. The app allows members to check their point balance, view available rewards, and place pickup orders. There is no membership fee, no minimum purchase to join, and no card to carry around.
Points accrue on qualifying purchases made in person at the counter and on eligible orders placed online. Crack'd Kitchen recommends that anyone joining make sure their account is linked before ordering, since points are credited to the member's profile at the time of purchase rather than to a receipt or payment method after the fact.
A few practical notes are worth flagging for anyone considering signing up. Exclusions apply to the program, and the specifics can vary, so the company advises guests to check with their local store for details on what does and does not qualify. Crack'd Kitchen also reserves the right to modify rewards without prior notice — standard practice for loyalty programs of this kind. Checking the balance periodically in the app is the simplest way to stay up to date on how many points a given number is worth.
Crack'd VIP is available across the company's five locations: Andover, Peabody, and Burlington in Massachusetts; Salem, New Hampshire; and Plantation, Florida. The Peabody store has a drive-thru, and the Burlington store also serves a weekday dinner menu. Hours vary by location, with most stores opening at 6 a.m. Membership applies to all of them, meaning points earned at Andover can be redeemed at Peabody or Plantation without any extra steps.
Loyalty programs have become increasingly common across the fast-casual and coffee categories, giving restaurants a way to organize rewards while maintaining direct communication with enrolled customers. For Crack'd Kitchen, the program provides a centralized system for tracking points, rewards, and member communications across its locations.
Guests who are already app users may find they have less setup to do than expected, since the app and the rewards account are connected. Anyone who has previously downloaded the app but has never created a profile will need to complete that step to begin earning.
The program is designed primarily for customers who make repeat purchases and want to track points through a single account. There is no membership fee to enroll, although qualifying purchases, point values, exclusions, and available rewards are subject to the program’s current terms. Customers with questions about earning or redeeming points can review the program information online or contact the applicable Crack'd Kitchen location for clarification.
Crack'd Kitchen operates restaurant locations in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Florida, as well as its Yolkswagon food truck and catering services. With the Crack'd VIP program now available across all five restaurant locations and eligible online orders, the company is placing added emphasis on creating a more consistent rewards experience for returning customers. By giving members a straightforward way to earn, track, and redeem points, the program reflects the growing role loyalty services play in maintaining ongoing customer relationships across multiple locations.

Graff Nissan of Okemos Clarifies Key Factors in Vehicle Trade-In Appraisals

OKEMOS, MI - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Graff Nissan of Okemos has clarified the principal factors that shape a vehicle trade-in appraisal, emphasizing that the evaluation process incorporates a range of vehicle-specific details and condition assessments rather than relying solely on make and model. As the summer travel period concludes in August 2026, vehicle owners may reassess whether an existing vehicle continues to meet commuting, family, or recreational needs. In that context, understanding how an appraisal accounts for documented information and physical condition provides clearer insight into how used vehicle value is determined.
A trade-in appraisal begins with foundational vehicle identifiers. Year, make, and model establish the basic platform. Trim level further refines that platform by distinguishing equipment packages, interior appointments, and capability features that differentiate otherwise similar vehicles. The vehicle identification number supplies a unique record that supports verification of production details and history. Mileage supplies a measurable indicator of usage intensity. Color is recorded as part of the overall description. Approximate payoff information is collected so that any outstanding balance can be considered in the broader transaction picture. Vehicle options, ranging from powertrain choices to convenience and safety equipment, add further specificity. Collectively these data points create a more complete profile than a simple listing of brand and body style.
Beyond the identifiers, overall vehicle condition occupies a central place in the appraisal. The process distinguishes among Excellent, Good, Fair, and Poor categories. These categories draw on observable and operational characteristics that include mechanical condition, paint condition, body condition, interior condition, and tire condition. The presence or absence of rust and visible defects is also weighed. Title history and any indication that reconditioning may be required further inform the evaluation. An appraisal therefore treats the vehicle as an integrated whole rather than isolating any single attribute as decisive.
Mechanical conditions address the operational integrity of major systems. Paint and body condition speak to the exterior surface and structural appearance. Interior condition reflects the state of seating, controls, and cabin materials. Tire condition records remaining tread and overall serviceability. Visible defects and rust supply additional visual evidence of wear or prior exposure. When these elements are documented together with the earlier identifiers, the resulting picture supports a more informed assessment of used vehicle value. No single factor automatically dictates the outcome; the combination of data and condition supplies the necessary context.
Graff Nissan of Okemos maintains an official Value Your Trade process that systematically gathers the information outlined above. The process requests year, make, model, trim, vehicle identification number, mileage, color, approximate payoff, vehicle options, and an overall vehicle-condition rating drawn from the Excellent-to-Poor scale. By structuring the request in this manner, the dealership obtains a consistent set of inputs that can be reviewed in relation to one another.
“Complete vehicle information allows an appraisal to move beyond a surface-level estimate,” said Andy Ooten, Sales Manager at Graff Nissan of Okemos. “Mileage and condition supply important context, while options and trim help establish how the specific vehicle is equipped. Transparent documentation of these elements supports a more thorough evaluation.”
Ooten, who brings more than 25 years of automotive sales experience including 15 years with the Graff organization, further observed that an appraisal benefits from viewing the vehicle holistically. “An appraisal considers the vehicle as a whole rather than elevating any one characteristic above the others. When the recorded details and the observed condition are examined together, the resulting picture is more reliable.”
The inclusion of title history and approximate payoff information rounds out the data set. Title history can confirm continuity of ownership records, while payoff figures clarify the financial position of the vehicle being presented for trade. Neither element operates in isolation; both are weighed alongside the mechanical, cosmetic, and equipment details already described. The result is a trade-in appraisal grounded in the specific attributes of the vehicle rather than a generic market average.
Because the process draws on multiple categories of information, the same make and model can present different appraisal profiles depending on mileage, options, and the documented state of mechanical systems, body panels, interior surfaces, and tires. Vehicle condition, in particular, supplies the qualitative layer that quantitative identifiers alone cannot capture. A vehicle with low mileage but significant cosmetic or mechanical issues will present a different profile from one with higher mileage yet carefully maintained systems and surfaces. The appraisal framework at Graff Nissan of Okemos is designed to register those distinctions through the structured collection of both data and condition ratings.
In practice, the Value Your Trade process functions as a standardized method for assembling the necessary inputs. Once the year, make, model, trim, identification number, mileage, color, options, payoff estimate, and condition category are recorded, the information forms a coherent basis for evaluation. This approach underscores that a trade-in appraisal is an information-driven exercise rather than a simple lookup of make and model averages.


Graff Nissan of Okemos is a Nissan dealership serving Okemos, East Lansing, Lansing, DeWitt, and surrounding communities. The dealership offers new and pre-owned vehicles, financing, service, parts, and body shop services, and maintains an official Value Your Trade process as part of its regular operations.

Royal Pools by Adams Earns Diamond Certified Status and Custom Pool Builder Recognition on 2026 San Jose Industry List

SAN JOSE, CA - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Royal Pools by Adams, a custom residential pool construction company serving the San Francisco Bay Area, has earned Diamond Certified status and secured a place on the 2026 Pool and Spa News Hayward Top 50 Builders list, two industry benchmarks that recognize quality workmanship and construction volume among pool contractors nationwide.
The dual recognition reflects standards that homeowners can use when evaluating pool professionals. Diamond Certified status is awarded only to companies that pass an independent research and ratings process measuring customer satisfaction and business practices. The Pool and Spa News Hayward Top 50 Builders list ranks builders based on the scope and volume of completed projects, offering a national reference point for construction activity within the industry.
For Bay Area homeowners considering a backyard project, these designations point to broader questions worth asking before selecting a licensed pool builder. Verifying credentials, reviewing independent ratings, and confirming a track record on completed projects are part of the due diligence process that industry observers recommend when planning custom swimming pool design and construction.
Royal Pools by Adams (royalpools.com), based in San Jose, California, operates as the custom residential brand of the Adams Pool Group, a family-operated business tracing its roots to 1953. The company constructs custom inground pools using shotcrete rated at 4,000 PSI, a strength above the industry standard of 2,500 PSI, and builds equipment packages that meet California Title 24 energy efficiency requirements.
Tony Adams, CEO of Royal Pools by Adams, said the recognitions align with how the company approaches each project. "Diamond Certified status and a spot on the Top 50 Builders list are outcomes that follow from consistent construction standards rather than goals in themselves," Langford said. "Homeowners researching a project can treat independent certifications and volume rankings as useful reference points when they compare pool builders across the region."
Adams added that education is central to the design and permitting process. "Many homeowners begin without a full picture of how material choices, construction timelines, and permitting requirements shape a finished pool," he said. "Understanding those factors early helps set realistic expectations for a custom project."
Royal Pools by Adams pool construction services extend across Santa Clara County and the South Bay, including Campbell, Cupertino, Los Altos, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, San Jose, Santa Clara, and Sunnyvale. The company designs pools tailored to each property, coordinating landscaping, hardscaping, fencing, and outdoor kitchen construction to fit the overall backyard plan. Additional offerings include integrated spa construction with separate temperature controls, water features, and family-oriented designs such as Baja shelves and beach entries.
Royal Pools by Adams maintains showrooms in San Jose and Pleasanton where clients can review materials in person, and the company holds membership in the California Pool & Spa Association and the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance. Beyond residential work, the firm builds commercial aquatic facilities for developers, municipalities, hotels, and recreation centers, and provides pool resurfacing services.


With more than five decades of construction experience in the region, Royal Pools by Adams continues to focus on custom residential pool design and construction for homeowners throughout the Bay Area.

"description": "Royal Pools by Adams is a deeply experienced and innovative Swimming Pool Builder and Spa Construction Company serving the Bay Area and Northern California. The company was founded in 1969 by Graham Shepherd, establishing a standard of excellence from its San Jose location, and has been in business for over 52 years. In 2012, Royal Pools was acquired by Adams Pool Solutions and continues to grow under Tony Adams, operating as a separate entity but sharing resources. Their primary focus is on custom pools and spas for both residential and commercial clients, guided by a simple business philosophy: build a quality, energy-efficient pool for a fair price. They achieve this through using skilled professionals, loyal subcontractors known for quality workmanship, and maintaining strong relationships with vendors and engineers. What they call the \"Royal Difference\" emphasizes superior craftsmanship, attention to detail, exceeding engineering specifications for steel, and using state-of-the-art equipment from Hayward and Jandy. A key feature of their pools is a unique four-component sanitizing system incorporating Ozone, Ultra Violet technology, Pool Rx (Ionization), and an inline chlorinator, which significantly reduces the required amount of chlorine. The typical process for building a pool involves meeting with a designer, developing the design, engineering, and planning (including a Pre Plan Meeting with the construction team scheduled 3-4 weeks after contract processing), and navigating the permit process, which can be lengthy, typically taking 3 to 6 months or longer after submission depending on the jurisdiction. Construction generally begins after permits are acquired and takes approximately five to six months, sometimes more, depending on the scope of work, subcontractor schedules, inspections, and material availability. Construction is managed through multiple phases by specialty subcontractors and overseen by an onsite construction superintendent and office coordinator who keep clients informed. Royal Pools prioritizes water safety, integrating features like fencing and alarms during construction, and offers guidance on additional safety measures. While their parent company, Adams Pool Solutions, handles remodeling and repairs, Royal Pools mentions using services like Hydro Jetting during renovations to clean surfaces and plumbing. Financing options are available through LendKey, and major credit cards are accepted. Royal Pools provides a comprehensive warranty, including a lifetime structural warranty that guarantees the pool will hold water for as long as the original owner owns it, and they remain available for questions long after completion. Potential clients can visit their showrooms by appointment in San Jose (outdoor) and Pleasanton (indoor), and the company is licensed under CA #278052.",

GLENN DALE, MD - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Crystal Maids has introduced a seasonal back-to-school promotion that provides a complimentary refrigerator interior deep clean, a service valued at 75 dollars, with any new recurring residential cleaning plan booked through September 30th. The offer is available to households across the DMV region as families adjust to the busier routines that accompany the start of the school year.
The timing of the promotion reflects a period when many households face added pressure balancing early mornings, homework schedules, and daily meal preparation. By relieving the burden of kitchen and refrigerator maintenance, Crystal Maids aims to help local families reclaim time and reduce the strain that often builds during the transition into the academic season. A clean, organized kitchen supports healthier daily routines, and the refrigerator deep clean addresses one of the more time-consuming tasks households tend to postpone.

The company uses green-certified, environmentally conscious cleaning products whenever possible, an approach intended to maintain a safe living environment for homes with children and pets.

Consistency remains central to the company's approach. Every Crystal Maids job is overseen by a full-time on-site team leader who supervises the work from start to finish. Staff members are background-checked, uniformed, and participate in ongoing monthly skills training, a structure designed to deliver meticulous and dependable results on each visit. Teams arrive in marked company vehicles, and all equipment and supplies are provided as part of the service.
"The start of the school year is one of the most demanding times of the year for families, and this promotion was designed to ease some of that pressure," said a spokesperson for Crystal Maids. "Providing recurring home cleaning in the DMV allows households to focus on their children and their routines rather than on the tasks that pile up during a busy season."
The spokesperson added that the company's long history has shaped its standards. "After more than three decades of serving this community, the priority has always been trust and consistency. Having an on-site team leader on every job and investing in ongoing training are the reasons clients can count on the same quality each time a team arrives."

Nova Warranty Expands Toyota Extended Warranty Coverage Across Full Model Lineup

WILMINGTON, DE - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Nova Warranty has expanded its vehicle service program offerings to provide broader coverage for Toyota owners seeking protection once their factory warranty expires. The expansion addresses a range of common mechanical concerns reported across popular Toyota models and includes two distinct plan tiers designed to accommodate different coverage needs and budgets.
Toyota vehicles are widely recognized for their reliability, yet components such as steering systems, air conditioning units, fuel pumps, and anti-lock braking sensors can require costly repairs once a car is driven beyond the manufacturer's coverage period. Nova Warranty's protection plans are structured to address these developments, offering continued protection against unexpected repair expenses after the original factory warranty ends.
Nova Warranty offers two options for Toyota drivers. The Nova Powertrain plan emphasizes minimizing time off the road, providing 24-hour roadside assistance for towing, lockouts, flat tires, dead batteries, and fuel delivery, along with a rental car provision during covered repairs. The Nova Superior plan extends protection to a wider set of major components, including transmission, drive axle, electrical system, cooling, brakes, turbos, and superchargers, as well as components specific to all-wheel drive vehicles.
The expanded lineup covers models including the Camry, Tacoma, Sequoia, Corolla, Sienna, Highlander, Land Cruiser, Tundra, Avalon, RAV4, 4Runner, 86, Mirai, C-HR, Prius, and Venza. An extended warranty for Toyota vehicles under the company's programs can include coverage for the engine, transmission, drive axle, electrical systems, cooling, brakes, suspension, steering, and climate control, depending on the plan selected.
"Toyota owners often keep their vehicles well beyond the factory warranty period, and that is precisely when unexpected repair costs tend to appear," said a spokesperson for Nova Warranty. "The expanded coverage reflects the real-world issues drivers encounter with steering, braking, and climate systems, and it gives owners a clear way to plan for those expenses rather than face them by surprise."
The company notes that coverage costs vary based on the selected plan level, the vehicle's age and mileage, and the specific model. Pricing distinctions between the Powertrain and Superior tiers allow owners to match a plan to the age and use of their vehicle, whether the car serves as a daily driver or handles more demanding tasks.
"Transparency and responsiveness are central to how the programs are structured," the Nova Warranty spokesperson added. "Owners can review verified customer reviews before deciding, and the coverage terms are laid out in plain language so there are no unexpected surprises during the claims process."
Nova Warranty maintains a rating of 4.8 out of five stars based on customer feedback, with the majority of reviewers citing the knowledge and helpfulness of the company's support staff. The company emphasizes that its offerings are vehicle service programs providing repair coverage after a manufacturer's warranty expires, with industry terms used for descriptive purposes.


Nova Warranty specializes in vehicle service programs and extended protection plans for a range of vehicles, including daily drivers, luxury, and exotic automobiles. The company provides free quotes, comprehensive coverage options, and daily customer service, and also offers protection plans for manufacturers such as BMW, Porsche, and Jaguar.

RTZEN Launches Plant Hanger Guide Focused on Safe Mounting and Hanging Hardware

Red Hill Manor, Delaware - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
RTZEN, a family-owned wrought iron décor brand established in 1997, has expanded its educational resources with a new hub designed to help homeowners select and install hanging plant hardware correctly. The initiative reframes plant hangers as functional hardware rather than purely decorative accessories, addressing the practical factors that determine whether a hanging planter stays secure over time.
The centerpiece of the effort is the RTZEN Plant Hangers Guide, which outlines the differences between wall brackets, ceiling hooks, swivel brackets, and outdoor hangers. Each type suits a specific space and purpose, and the guidance encourages homeowners to match the hardware to the location, the planter, and the way the plant will be used day to day.

A central theme throughout the resource is load capacity. Planters often weigh considerably more after watering, and hardware that appears adequate when a pot is dry can fail once soil is saturated. The material notes that the mounting surface matters as much as the bracket itself, since drywall, wood studs, masonry, and ceiling joists each call for different installation approaches and anchoring hardware.
Sizing receives similar attention. The RTZEN Guide to Choosing a Plant Hanger Bracket explains why bracket projection should account for the diameter of the planter and the space available on a wall or under a ceiling, allowing foliage to hang naturally without crowding.
The resource also distinguishes between indoor and outdoor conditions. Hardware exposed to moisture, temperature swings, and sunlight requires finishes built to resist corrosion, whereas indoor pieces prioritize appearance alongside secure support. RTZEN produces hand-forged wrought iron pieces with dual-layer rust protection through zinc galvanization and powder coating, and includes mounting hardware with its products. The RTZEN Hanging Plant Bracket Size Guide helps homeowners align bracket dimensions with common planter sizes before mounting anything.
"Homeowners often choose a plant hanger based on how it looks and overlook the weight it will actually carry once a planter is watered," said Rami Abramson of RTZEN. "The goal of this resource is to help people think about sizing, the mounting surface, and load support first, so the decorative choice sits on top of a secure foundation."
Abramson added that the guidance reflects the brand's broader approach to ironwork. "Traditional blacksmithing produces pieces that hold up because the material and the process are honest," he said. "A plant hanger should serve a daily purpose and last, not just fill a spot on the wall."
The educational hub reflects a wider shift in how homeowners treat entryways, balconies, patios, and gardens as functional extensions of interior space. As these areas take on more use, durable hardware that combines practical support with considered design has become increasingly relevant.


RTZEN, operated by Iron-Craft, specializes in handcrafted wrought iron products for home and office use, including hooks, holders, hangers, curtain holdbacks, and planter hooks. Rooted in traditional blacksmithing techniques and guided by pillars of craftsmanship, quality, and durability, the company backs its pieces with an exclusive Lifetime Warranty and follows the philosophy of quality, stylish, hand-forged iron that is always unique.

Premier Injury Specialists Expands Auto Accident Pain Relief Services Across Metro Atlanta

STOCKBRIDGE, GA - August 18, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Premier Injury Specialists, a board-certified pain management clinic based in Stockbridge, Georgia, has expanded its dedicated pain relief and pain management services to serve patients throughout metro Atlanta. The clinic focuses on treating injuries that result from vehicle collisions, including strains and tears that often go undetected in the days and weeks following an accident.
The clinic emphasizes early detection of injuries that may not be immediately apparent, such as microscopic tears in muscles and ligaments. According to the clinic, these injuries can worsen over time when left untreated, making prompt evaluation an important step for individuals who have recently been involved in a collision.
The board-certified physicians at Premier Injury Specialists develop personalized, non-surgical treatment plans that begin by identifying the specific strain or injury a patient has sustained. This approach allows the medical team to address the underlying source of pain rather than only the symptoms. The Premier Injury Specialists auto accident treatment doctors work with each patient to establish a recovery plan tailored to the individual nature of the injury.
"Many people walk away from a collision believing they are unharmed, only to experience pain days or weeks later," said Dr. Yolanda Scott, MD, speaking for the clinic. "The goal is to identify those hidden injuries early and create a treatment plan that supports a full recovery without unnecessary surgery."
The clinic serves patients across the metro Atlanta region and offers care during weekday hours, operating Monday through Thursday and on Friday. The expansion reflects a growing demand for accessible pain management care among residents who have been affected by vehicle accidents in the area.
Injuries stemming from automobile collisions frequently include whiplash, soft tissue damage, and spinal strain. These conditions can affect mobility, sleep, and daily function when not addressed promptly. The clinic's approach centers on comprehensive evaluation, ongoing monitoring, and treatment methods intended to restore function and reduce discomfort over time.
"Every patient presents a different set of circumstances, and the treatment plan reflects that," Dr. Scott added. "Focusing on the actual injury allows the team to guide patients toward recovery in a way that fits their specific needs."
The clinic has established a reputation among area residents for its patient-centered environment and knowledgeable medical staff. Its focus on personalized non-surgical interventional pain management gives patients options that prioritize natural recovery while addressing the root cause of pain associated with accident-related injuries.


Premier Injury Specialists is a pain management clinic located in Stockbridge, Georgia, serving patients throughout the metro Atlanta area.
