Page 6 THE VILLADOM TIMES I & II • March 19, 2014 Know Your Neighborhood Businesses: MAHWAH & RAMSEY Eden Medical provides personalized medical care in the comfort of your own home D r. Jyoti Mathews welcomes the community to Eden Medical, her personalized, home-based medical practice that focuses on preventive lifestyle medicine. “This is a new and different way to practice medicine,” Dr. Mathews says. “Instead of just focusing on diagnosing signs and symptoms, I will investigate what is the actual cause of their dysfunction. I then teach and treat patients about nutrition, exercise, and the environmental factors affecting their health.” Eden Medical is a concierge medical practice that provides personal care by one physician. This allows Dr. Mathews to focus on individual patients and spend time with them in their homes and via “video visits.” Through an electronic medical record, patients can make appointments online and communicate with the doctor through secure messaging. Because the doctor trav- els to her patients, there is no need for them to spend their time in a waiting room. “The focus is on lifestyle medicine, especially nutrition counseling, since nutri- tion is such a huge part of good health,” the Jyoti Mathews, M.D. doctor notes. Her goal is to help patients reduce the number of medications they use, stay out of the hospital, and enjoy their lives. Dr. Mathews is a graduate of New Jersey Medical School of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, and completed her family medicine residency at Hunterdon Medical Center. She is a board certified family physician. She trained under Dr. Joel Fuhrman, a noted nutritional physician and author. Dr. Mathews is a member of the Institute of Functional Medicine (IFM), which focuses on personalized medicine that takes into account a person’s genetic background, lifestyle, and environ- mental exposures. She is a graduate of the AFMCP -- Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice. She is also a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians and the Christian Medical & Dental Association.

Doctor Evangel offers state-of- the-art chiropractic care A pioneer in his field, Dr. Evangel was the first chiropractor in the tri-state area to use the Pro-Adjuster, which analyzes and adjusts the spine with gentle percussive waves (thumps) without twisting the spine. The technology was developed by NASA to check for metal fatigue on the Space Shuttle and provides information to deter- mine specifically which vertebrae to adjust. Dr. Evangel was featured demonstrating the Pro-Adjuster on many television news programs including Fox TV’s “Good Day NY” since he began working with the instrument in 200l. He now has the “grandson” of the Pro-Adjuster, The Ultralign G2, which brings comput- erized chiropractic a quantum leap past its predecessor. The doctor uses Spinal Reju- venative Therapy, a form of spinal Dr. Evangel decompression that can reduce disc herniations. He also advocates appropriate exercise and nutrition. Cold laser therapy is also part of treatment. Dr. Evangel explains that red and infrared light accelerate healing by improving mito- chondrial function. His newest therapy is the ZenPro 5900, which is whole body vibration therapy that improves bone density, tones muscles, releases endorphins, improves balance and coordination, enhances blood flow and oxygenation, and lowers the stress hormone cortisol. Dr. Evangel’s credentials include being a police defensive tactics instructor and holding a 7th degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. He received a BA in biology, teaching certification in the sciences, and an MA in environmental studies from Montclair State University. He received his doctor of chiropractic degree from New York Chiropractic College in 1985 and has been in private practice since 1986. Dr. Evangel is located at 56 North Central Avenue, Ramsey.
