Harlem Light Parade returns with Korey Wise as grand marshal
BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY
DRX9000TM
RELIEVES BACK PAIN
Surgeons perform an estimated 300,000 to 400,000
back surgeries every year. Annually, neurosurgeons
perform at least 100,000 operations for lumbar disc
disease alone, and orthopedic surgeons perform a
similar number. It is estimated that between 20% and
40% of these operations are unsuccessful.
That is why doctors from all over the country
are racing to acquire and get trained to operate the
DRX9000TM, an FDA approved device that is saving
thousands of Americans suffering from chronic back
pain from going under the knife.
Dr. Melinda Keller, who treats serious back
pain without surgery explains how the DRX9000TM
Caribbean L 14 ife, NOVEMBER 15-21, 2019
works... “Over 10 years ago, NASA began to notice
an unexpected result of space travel: Astronauts that
left with back pain would come back without it. After
investigated this now phenomenon here’s what they
found: During the anti-gravity state of the mission there
were decompressive forces on the intervertebral discs
and back pain was relieved. How? When you travel
through space, the effects of gravity are removed
and you are in a weightless state. All the pressure is
taken off your spine and discs. Even better — and
this is the key — a negative pressure is created. This
negative pressure actually sucks the herniated material
back into the disc and allows it to heal. Thanks to the
DRX9000TM, disc herniation sufferers finally have a
non-surgical solution.”
The main conditions the DRX9000TM has documented
success with are back pain, sciatica, herniated
and/or bulging discs (single or multiple), degenerative
disc disease, facet syndromes and a relapse or failure
following back surgery.
Anyone wishing to learn more about this new
FDA approved solution to back pain or to set up an
appointment for a free consultation call Dr. Keller’s
office at 718 234-6212 or visit Brooklyn Spine
Center, 5911 16th Ave., Brooklyn, New York 11204.

WITHOUT BACK SURGERY

Harlem will shine a little
brighter this holiday season
when the uptown neighborhood’s
26th annual holiday
lights are plugged in Thursday,
Nov. 20.
Called “Harlem Light It Up,” a
parade of lights will march down
125th Street from Morningside
Avenue and on with plenty
of more festive fun planned
throughout the day.
Manhattan Community
Boards 9 and 10 selected three
grand marshals for that bright
parade:
Korey Wise — One of the
exonerated “Central Park Five,”
who is now known from the Netflix
series “When They See Us.”
Wise is also a public speaker and
social justice activist, who has
risen to prominence since he
and four others were acquitted
and released from prison for a
crime that they did not commit.
Laiona Michelle — An actor,
singer, and writer who made
her Broadway debut in the 2015
musical “Amazing Grace,” who
recently broke box-office records
at the George Street Playhouse
with her performance as Nina
Simone, in “Little Girl Blue”
(which she wrote and starred in).
She’s also now writing on a new
musical headed for Broadway in
2020, based on the life of Nelson
Mandela.
Leah Abraham — An Ethiopian
American entrepreneur who
brings “a dynamic multi-cultural
foundation to everything she
does,” organizers say, and has
been a driving force to bring successful
business into the Harlem
community. Abraham has found
numerous ways to give back to
the neighborhood through her
passionate commitment to the
business she has helped establish,
Settepani Restaurant.
This year’s Parade of Lights
will have a caravan of 10 floats
– each sponsored by a Harlem
community organization, local
political leaders, community
boards, as well as members of
the local businesses community.
“The participation this year
has hit a new high,” said Barbara
Askins, CEO of the 125th Business
Improvement District. “The
historic community of Harlem
deserves the kind of attention
that is often relegated to the
downtown communities.”
The light parade’s rain date is
Monday, Nov. 25.
