If there’s any question as to who is Long Island’s
best acupuncturist, let that debate end now. Dr.
Sharon Petito, acupuncturist extraordinaire, has
for the third consecutive year claimed the Best
Acupuncturist on Long Island title in this highly
competitive program. Petito uses this ancient
treatment to remedy a host of issues, including
joint pain, arthritis, irritable bowel, poor
circulation, asthma, and much, much more. If
her mastery of this centuries-old practice isn’t
impressive enough, Petito also specializes in
herbal medicine and massage therapy. Aside
from using acupuncture to help patients, Petito
also believes patients should be willing to make
lifestyle and nutritional changes to improve
their well being. For all these reasons and so
many more, it’s no wonder why Long Islanders
consistently vote Sharon Petito the absolute
best!
Best Adult Day
Ca re
Gurwin Jewish Nursing &
Rehabilitation Center
68 Hauppauge Rd., Commack.
631-715-2000. gurwin.org
For many adult children, there comes a point
in life when they have to make the difficult
decision of finding day-to-day care for their
aging parents. One of the most trusted adult
day care providers on the island is Gurwin
Jewish Nursing & Rehabilitation Center, which
provides such a service for six days a week.
This extraordinary center and its Adult Day
Health Care Program, a customized senior
program, earned the distinction of the Best
Adult Day Care on Long Island for its careful
attention to each patient’s healthcare needs and
strong social and recreational activities—both
of which promote a joyous lifestyle. Adult day
care members also have access to a barber and
beauty salon shop and a long list of activities
meant to spur engagement. Maybe that decision
isn’t that difficult after all.
