37th True REST Float Spa Location Opens in Dayton, Ohio

Entrepreneur-Physician Partners Open Fourth Float Therapy Franchise, Providing Reduced Environmental Stimulus Therapy (REST)

The world leader in flotation therapy, True REST Float Spa, is announcing the opening of its thirty-seventh location. True REST Float Spa Dayton is the sixth Ohio franchise. The new location is now open on Nov. 17 and is located at 665 Lyons Road, Dayton, Ohio.

True REST Float Spa Dayton franchise owners Tim Scott and Jameson Whaley began their journey as True REST franchise owners four years ago when they opened their first location in Perrysburg, Ohio, followed by True REST locations in Toledo, Ohio, and McDonough, Georgia. When the two first began looking for the perfect business venture, they focused on opportunities aligned with their careers in health and wellness. When Scott and Whaley discovered the franchise opportunities and support available through True REST Float Spa, they knew it was the perfect combination, maximizing Scott’s advocacy for wellness in his career as an ER doctor and the perfect match for Whaley’s entrepreneurial skills and interest.

“Franchising is a way for me to branch off in an industry that I am involved with. I immediately felt like I was a part of a family when I started speaking to everyone at True REST Float Spa,” said Tim Scott. “An extraordinary team of employees and franchise owners sets True REST apart from other companies in the space and have made the company a world leader in floatation therapy. Jameson and I are excited to open another location and to continue expanding flotation therapy across Ohio.”

The pair also appreciates the perfect avenue for benefitting the lives of veterans. True REST Float Spa has a mission to bring healing for veterans across the globe through the benefits of floatation therapy with a monthly veteran program offering free floats on the 11th day of each month.

True REST Dayton manager Alex Mandich discovered the benefits of flotation therapy for veterans firsthand when he was introduced to flotation therapy by franchise owner Tim Scott. Mandich served four years in the United States Army before returning home to Ohio, where he owned and managed several restaurants.

“When I stepped into my first float pod, I was anxious. It was not something I had ever experienced. My high-strung military mindset kept me from relaxing and focusing on myself, and it took time for me to become completely comfortable with the experience,” said Mandich. “Now, I look forward to my sessions and to seeing others feel optimistic and relieved from pain and stress. I hope other veterans and community members take time to experience float therapy through our special offers and veteran program.”

Veterans like Mandich and anyone suffering from symptoms of mental and physical health benefit from float therapy. The distraction-free environment at True REST Float Spa allows guests to float in a water and Epsom salt solution. The True REST experience focuses on providing REST, or Reduced Environmental Stimulus Therapy, to every individual who floats. Float pods offer a natural and holistic approach to total body healing by reducing stress, managing pain, improving sleep and more.

True REST Float Spa Dayton will open on Mondays from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. and Tuesdays through Sundays from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. To learn more about the Dayton location, visit https://truerest.com/locations/dayton/or call (937)-985-9388.

True REST is the leader of flotation therapy across North America, with 37 locations now open and more in development. The simple franchise program is designed to help owners create a successful business with training, marketing, operations and franchisee support. The company’s executives and board of directors are passionate about sharing their core values of integrity, honesty and responsibility with every franchise owner and True REST member.

Dental Whale Chooses Sunbit as Preferred Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) Technology Partner

Sunbit is endorsed by Dental Whale for use by its 19,000 affiliated dental practices across the U.S.

Industry trailblazer Dental Whale®, which continues to successfully steer dentists in private practice toward better and more efficient business solutions, today announced it has selected Sunbit as its preferred Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) solution. Dental Whale is the nation’s leading solutions provider for 19,000+ private dentists and dental support organizations (DSO), providing marketing, scheduling, repair, equipment and technology solutions to improve their practices. Effective today, Dental Whale will recommend Sunbit to all of the dental practices across the U.S. that the company supports.

Dental Whale Leader, Joe Cavarett said, “When we experienced how Sunbit generated increased case acceptance and scheduled treatment for our own Practice Group patients, we wanted to share their financing solution with our members and their patients. Every patient deserves to be given a comprehensive treatment plan and financing options. Sunbit helps practices support the oral health of more patients.”

Sunbit has rapidly become the de facto BNPL leader in the dental industry, with a broad spectrum of patients approved with excellent terms and no hidden fees. Moreover, Sunbit powers the application process and manages the collections process. The dental office gets paid immediately, which contributes directly to the cash flow of the business.    

Based on its own Sunbit pilot program at select locations, Dental Whale confirmed that Sunbit offers access to best-in-class approval rates, terms, and support for dental leaders and their patients. Sunbit offers access to financing for dental procedures with 6, 12, 18 and 24 month payment plan options, and 85% of patients who apply using Sunbit technology are approved. All well-qualified patients get access to 0% for 6- or 12-month payment plans.

“We piloted Sunbit at two of the Dental Whale locations, and we were amazed — in the first 90 days, their technology approved 87% of patients, helping us generate $126K in additional production,“ said Dr. Steven Wingfield, DMD & Practice Management Focus Area Leader at Dental Whale. “Our patient financing approval rates have doubled with Sunbit. Not to mention the extremely fast approval process, which enables us to fulfill more treatment plans and provide a better experience for the patients and staff. We are excited to extend the program to all of our locations,” he added.

Sunbit is proving that Buy Now, Pay Later offers dental practices a valuable new option for dental care financing and access. Sunbit removes the friction from the financing process to make it a closing tool instead of a pain point for patients — reducing embarrassing declines, scrambling for financing alternatives, and treatment delays.

“Dental Whale is a market stand out, and we couldn’t be more excited about their decision,” said Paul Monahan, Executive Director of Business Development, Dental at Sunbit. “We feel like there is significant synergy between our organizations, from Dental Whale’s white glove approach to client support, to its proven ability to benefit a practice’s bottom line, to its philosophy and mission. Today is an exciting first step in what we hope is a long-standing relationship,” he added.

Christie adds immersive touch to the new museum dedicated to Portugal’s most famous cyclist

Laser projectors and large format LCD panels bring audiovisual experiences to life

Joaquim Agostinho, the best Portuguese cyclist of all time, now has his own museum in the municipality of Torres Vedras (district of Lisbon). The recently opened museum offers several audiovisual experiences powered by Christie® 1DLP® laser projectors and LCD panels. The equipment was integrated by Luzeiro, Halogéneo and ADLC Audiovisuais, working with the distributor Total AV, who chose Christie’s solutions because of their “quality, reliability and performance.”

A national hero in Portugal, Joaquim Agostinho’s sporting career spanned 16 years, between 1968 and 1984, winning all Portugal cycling races and eventually joining the international circuit, which included 13 stints in the Tour de France. He passed away in 1984 after an accident during the Volta ao Algarve. Before his cycling career, he served with the Portuguese army in Angola and Mozambique, where he delivered messages on bicycle because he was able to ride 50 kilometres in two hours where it took other soldiers five.

The new Museu do Ciclismo Joaquim Agostinho, located in Torres Vedras, the cyclist’s hometown, was conceived to preserve Agostinho’s memory and to promote cycling as a sport and as a social activity. The museum is divided into several different spaces for temporary and permanent exhibitions and displaying Agostinho’s memorabilia and information as well as those from other cyclists from Torres Vedras.

The modern interactive museum boasts a variety of multimedia content. “The client was looking for a dynamic museum and not an interpretation centre, so that’s why it was so important to have a striking visual and interactive component that could be regularly modified to keep it alive and attractive,” explained Vitor Paiva from Luzeiro.

The temporary exhibition called Um Outro Lado da Bicicleta (The Other Side of the Bicycle), on view through the end of the 2022, is proving to be one of the museum’s biggest attractions. This show features an immersive projection on a 14-meter curved screen using 12 Christie DWU630-GS 1DLP® laser technology projectors with 6750 lumens and WUXGA resolution.

“This projection, an overview of the various uses of the bicycle over the course of history, immerses visitors in the audiovisuals and makes them feel part of the story told in the videos,” pointed out Vanessa Oliveira, the museologist at Museu do Joaquim Agostinho. “In that regard, the projection is much more dynamic than other visualization technologies like LED,” she added.

For Vitor Paiva, from Luzeiro, the chosen projectors “are perfect for working 12/24. We are particularly pleased with the high levels of contrast ensured by Christie RealBlack™ technology as well as the Zoom lens and the compact size of the projectors. It’s just what we were looking for in this project.”

In addition, the museum also uses another two DWU630-GS for blending in the auditorium as well as a Christie D20HD-HS for the museum’s outdoor space. “This 1DLP® laser model with 18,500 lumens and HD resolution has built-in Christie BoldColor technology which guarantees intense, life-like images with high levels of brightness,” explained Luis Carmo of Total AV.

Meanwhile, the permanent exhibition called 53:11 Esforço e Glória (53:11 Suffering and Glory) explores the evolution of cycling and the sport’s different forms and events, its heroes and the memories of fanatic followers of the big cycling races. It also includes a core section dedicated to the life and sporting history of Joaquim Agostinho, underscoring his triumphs, adventures and memories.

For this exhibition, the museum used various Christie large format LCD panels, the UHD751-P and UHD861-P models. “They are really reliable displays that produce striking, highly attractive images for their large size (75 and 86 inches respectively). The fact they have 4K UHD resolution was another decisive factor in making our choice,” revealed Luís Rodrigues, CEO of Halogéneo.

The museum is delighted with the Christie solutions: “The truth is that they are a wonderful resource for the museum, and fulfil our needs exactly, adding incredible dynamic color to our exhibition rooms. Another big plus is just how easy they are to operate for our staff and the little maintenance they require,” claimed Vanessa Oliveira. “On that note, I would also praise Total AV’s really helpful maintenance support and their total cooperation whenever we need them,” she added.

Vitor Paiva, from Luzeiro, also wished to underline the work of Total AV and Luis Carmo as Christie’s distributor in Portugal: “From day one, Luis and his team were completely on board with the project, initially in the pre-sale phase and then helping us make the right choice of equipment for the optimum functioning of the museum to the standards of quality demanded by the client, and finally, during the installation, where they played a critical role in the technical support and back-up.”

PRELOADED and Save the Children win at the Learning Technologies Awards 2021

In 90 Days, the learning game developed by PRELOADED, Save the Children and World Vision, has clinched one of the Best Learning Game awards at the Learning Technologies Awards 2021.

In 90 Days, the learning game developed by PRELOADED, Save the Children and World Vision, has won the bronze award for Best Learning Game at the Learning Technologies Awards 2021.

The Learning Technologies Awards represent a huge network of talent and ingenuity and recognise the commitment, enthusiasm and passion for learning technologies across the world.

“It’s an honour to have this project recognised by Learning Technologies,” said Phil Stuart, Founder and Creative Director of PRELOADED. “It’s great to see quality, consumer-grade games being recognised within the L&D space, particularly when created to help with humanitarian efforts across the world.”

Tim Carpenter, Learning Solutions Specialist, Humanitarian Leadership Academy, Save the Children UK previously commented: “Working with the PRELOADED team was a very positive experience. They were professional, solutions-focused, and very hard working, which resulted in our ability to fold a wealth of humanitarian and learning and development content into an engaging and impactful game. I am pleased to have partnered with PRELOADED and feel proud of the product we have created together.”

Developed by PRELOADED as part of a global L&D effort from Save the Children and World Vision, In 90 Days is a serious learning game that explores the scenarios, trade-off dilemmas and challenging decisions that field managers face while responding to crises, helping them train to effectively lead humanitarian emergencies.

Investment in early preparedness has proved to reduce the costs of humanitarian action by more than 50% (UNICEF) – saving lives by facilitating swifter responses.

Yet traditional, linear e-learning doesn’t provide a stepping stone between the training material and the field. In 90 Days is a mobile game designed to provide field managers with a safe space to learn, fail and develop situational skills – to be equipped for what they will face practically and emotionally during an emergency response.

You can download the game via Kaya Connect and read the full list of Learning Technologies 2021 award winners here.
