Muscle cells require oxygen and nutrients carried by the circulating blood to function normally, so contrary to common belief, massage is not only for relieving aches and pains in fatigued muscles it also has been known to help heal diseases, eliminate illnesses, provide natural healing, and maintain a feeling of physical and mental well being. Dr. Gruendler therapists are not only tested and certified but state certified to heal the body from the outside and the personal service they and she provide is something she said the community had shown a need for. "Most of my patients come from the general area but 1 do have patients that come from Plymouth, South Bend and Rochester," she said. "The store is not the main focus here, but I wanted to offer it to promote good nutrition and maintenance." She said she has people of all ages, backgrounds and beliefs come to her store for therapeutic services as well as for shopping for healthy alternatives for their diets. Dr. Gruendler said she also plans to offer body wraps for the purpose of detoxification and fat loss in the near future. Of all the things she sees her patients and customers ail from, she said the most common problems are the simplest. "Basically, they aren't taking care of themselves," she said. "And, they aren't doing anything about it. They wait until they're miserable to get help instead of right in the beginning and it really all starts with wellness care taking care of yourself in the first place so you don't feel bad." Dr. Gruendler accepts walk-ins and is open for appointments and sales Mondays and Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Tuesdays from 1 to 5 p.m.; Fridays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to noon.

Drama set for April 20, May 1 in Nappanee NAPPANEE The First Church of God, at the comer of C.R. 7 and C.R. 54, Nappanee is sponsoring The Heaven's Gates & Hell's Flames Drama Sunday, April 29, Monday, April 30, and May 1 at 7 p.m. The Heaven's Gates & Hell's Flames is a high-impact, compelling drama presentation making use of elaborate sound and lighting effects designed to make people consider where they will spend eternity based on the Biblical reality of life after death and beyond the grave. A cast of approximately 40 people (volunteers from the host church) act out a series of vignettes about people who live life, making their choices, die and find themselves outside heaven asking the question, "Angel, is my name in your book?" (Rev. 20:15). If their name is found in the "Book of Life", a choir of angels sing and in a joyous scene, the person is welcomed into heaven by a smiling Jesus. However when the answer if "n0"....He1l becomes an all-too-real reality. The drama thus depicts the Biblical reality of an eternal destiny (Heaven or HelL.Heb 9:27) and that only by accepting Jesus Christ (John 3:3), can a person be assured of Heaven and escaping Hell. Heaven's Gates & Hell's Flames is under the direction and copyright ownership of Reality Outreach Ministries, Inc. which began in 1979 in St. Catharines Ontario, Canada. The drama is now viewed by hundreds of thousands annually in churches throughout cities and towns of North America and in countries around the world. Following the drama presentation, people are invited to come forward as an indication of their personal acceptance and desire to be followers of Christ. Admission is free.
