Greenville Natural Health Center Expands, Adds Resource Center

GREENVILLE, SC (July 13, 2010) - Greenville Natural Health Center has completed a 1,900-square-foot expansion of its offices at 1901 Laurens Road in Greenville. The new center features six treatment rooms for acupuncture and massage therapy, a product room, dedicated office space and open space that will be used for patient and consumer seminars.

The expansion is a result of increased demand for natural health options offered by Greenville Natural Health Center, and a desire to create an area resource center for Alternative Medicine, said Dr. Marina Ponton, owner and acupuncture physician.

“I have a real passion for educating patients and consumers about the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine for the prevention of disease, and about integrating ancient practices into modern medicine for successful outcomes,” Ponton explained. “This expansion will allow us to host educational seminars, and to serve as a resource and information center on natural health modalities including acupuncture, herbal medicine, massage, diet modifications, and breathing and movement therapies.”

About Greenville Natural Health Center - Opened in 2007 by Dr. Marina Ponton, Greenville Natural Health Center specializes in health and wellness using natural health modalities, such as acupuncture, therapeutic massage and nutritional and herbal therapy.
