Certainly the northern Michigan sights
are overwhelmingly beautiful – pristine
lakeshores, national parks abound with
vibrant colors. But have you ever stopped
to listen to the unique sounds – the call of
falcons; the breeze through undisturbed,
natural terrains; the surf rolling into shore?
Gerald Hug wants to help you hear those
sounds. He’s not a salesperson looking to
sell the latest product; he’s an audiologist
excited to go to work everyday. “I don’t have
a job – it’s more of a hobby. It’s fun to help
improve someone’s quality of life.”
After taking his first audiology college
course, Hug was hooked. He’s still educating
himself (receiving his doctorate next year)
so his patients are guaranteed the latest
medical advancements. Hug’s philosophy
is simple: if your quality of life is impacted
by hearing loss, treat the loss. Great strides
in technology have resulted in cosmetically
appealing aids that process softer
sounds louder, and louder sounds softer
– something your grandfather’s hearing aid
couldn’t do.
● Visit HUG Center for Hearing.
You’ll hear what you should
hear – including those rhythmic,
soothing sounds of the Lake
Michigan shores.

Celebrate Life’s Beautiful Moments
at Dearborn Jewelers
For years, Plymouth residents Matt & Teri Allen dreamed of
relocating Dearborn Jewelers (DJ) here. In 2003 that dream
became a reality, and Teri continues her 30-year tradition of hand
selecting every piece: “I like working with unique designers.
I like hand-finished pieces, fine craftsmanship, the richer color
of 18K gold.”
“Teri has an eye for quality and design like no one else,”
Matt boasts.
Entering DJ, you’re not only awed by beautiful things, you’re
immediately eased by an inviting atmosphere. Customers are
welcomed as special guests by the Allens, Teri’s brother, Nick,
and their staff.
While all of the DJ collections are
uniquely beautiful – from platinum bridal
to exotic color sapphires – what’s most
eye-popping are their rare diamonds.
According to Matt, “Our signature rounds
are cut/polished to the highest world
standards. The difference is measurable:
we use ‘Isee2’ technology to calculate
brilliance, scintillation, and symmetry.”
Loyal customers are invited to special
events, like Ladies Glamour Night and the
popular Men’s Panic Party complete with
pizza, beer, and free gift wrapping the
week before Christmas.
Stop in ... treat yourself!
Dearborn Jewelers (734) 737-9525
● Dearborn Jewelers features colorful
“rainbow” sapphires like these, intensely
brilliant Lucere diamonds, and natural,
fancy-colored diamonds by Uneek.

Whitaker Therapy Brings
Hope to Pain Sufferers
After every imaginable medical test, doctors
were baffled as to why Meggan Kantz was
experiencing severe foot pain. Parker
Whitaker, a muscle/pain therapist here in
Plymouth, wasn’t.
“Parker immediately treated me for
a pinched nerve using muscle-release
technique (MRT). I walked out of his clinic
without pain and went from running
3 miles to 26 within a couple of months.”
With a background in clinical massage and
extensive MRT training, Whitaker is helping
people live pain-free. His clients range
from 80-somethings to Ironman tri-athletes,
and the less time he spends with them, the
happier he is.
“That may seem counter-intuitive to
running a business,” says Whitaker, “but
my goal is to see people as few times as
possible. If I can help someone in one
session – which happens frequently –
then I consider myself successful.”
MRT originated in Europe, and is medically proven to increase athletic
performance and improve injury-healing time. Along with hands-on therapy, best
described as uncomfortable, but never painful, stretching, Whitaker educates his
patients on how to remain pain-free.
That’s how Meggan was able to finish her first Ironman: “Knowing how to
stretch myself is a big plus. Parker’s my savior.” Whitaker Therapy, 585 Forest #3

Variety is “Spice” for Executive Chef
There’s a playful twinkle in Chef John Schofer’s eye reserved
for lovers of authentic Irish fare - with a culinary twist.
“The great thing about being a chef at Sean O‘Callaghan’s
(SO’Cs) is that each day is a little different. Using only fresh
seasonal ingredients, I create new dishes every week. As corny
as it sounds, variety is the ‘spice’ of life for me,” says John, a
7-year certified American Culinary Federation Chef with
17 years’ experience.
After cooking up delights in Chicago and Indiana, John returned
home to Livonia and Dearborn Inn’s kitchen before joining SO’Cs
4 years ago. If this Irish Public House’s décor, malt whiskey &
Guinness don’t make you wish your last name began with “O,” the
bangers & mash and Irish Breakfast certainly will.
“We import cheeses, mustards, meats, and fish from the Emerald
Isle,” claims John. “I feature seafood because I can do so much
with it: coconut battered
shrimp, orange-roughy fish ‘n
chips, seared rare Ahi Tuna.”
And if not everyone in
your party is an Irish-food
enthusiast, other savory
choices like pan-roasted
double-cut pork chops in a red
wine/gorgonzola reduction,
mouth-watering shaved prime
rib sandwiches, burgers, and grilled
chicken are sure to be a hit.
Spice up your lunch/dinner at
O’Callaghan’s!

The Busy People’s
Workout
Got 4 minutes a day? Muscle/pain
therapist, Parker Whitaker, says that’s
all it’ll take to increase your metabolism
and burn more fat. Whitaker should
know, having served as a “test” client for
the range-of-motion (ROM) machine, he
was blown away.
“I heard about ROM and thought it
was too good to be true. I was training
10 hrs/wk when the opportunity to test
ROM arose. It was truly a life-changing
experience.”
Whitaker used the machine 4 minutes
a day, continued his typical nutrition
plan, and cut his body fat 3% in 2 weeks.
By 9 months, he’d added 12 lbs. of
muscle. Not everyone may see these
results, but Whitaker says all his clients
feel energized within 7 days.
So what’s different? With ROM, you
stretch, get resistance and work out
anaerobically. Those 4 minutes are so intense, your body’s metabolism spikes for 20
hours (compared to a measly 2 hours after only cardio).
Barbra Wells tried ROM only to prove it was a waste of time. “The idea of working
out 4 minutes/day and obtaining any fitness benefit seemed ridiculous. But, my first
ROM workout was so humbling that I went back for more. I’m now able to endure
longer stints of interval and cross-training. I love it.”
Skeptical? Try it for a week, free, in Downtown Plymouth.
