FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Healthvues™ Releases Stress and Relaxation Explained DVD
First in a series of relaxation DVDs slated for release in 2007.

Reno, Nevada, March 1, 2007 / -- iMed Design, inc. of Reno, Nevada, today announced the release of “Stress and Relaxation Explained: An Introduction to Stress Management and Relaxation Techniques.”  The title is published by Healthvues®, an iMed Design subsidiary.

Stress and Relaxation Explained is hosted by Alice D. Domar, PhD., a pioneer in the field of Mind|Body medicine and relaxation techniques. She is the author of numerous books, a columnist for Health Magazine, on the advisory board for Parents Magazine and on the Board of Experts of LLuminari. She is also the series editor for the new series of mind/body books by Harvard Medical Publications/Simon and Schuster. Dr. Domar has appeared on the Today Show, Good Morning America, CBS This Morning, Dateline NBC, CNN and the CBS and NBC Evening News, to name a few. She presents lectures and conducts workshops throughout the US and around the world. Most recently, Dr. Domar was named to the prestigious list of 15 “Women to Watch in 2004” by Lifetime TV.

Dr. Domar, founder and director of the Domar Center for Complementary Healthcare says, “Stress is all around us – at home, at work, even at play - we can’t totally eliminate it from our lives. But we can learn to live with it. We believe this DVD is unique in that it helps the viewer understand how our bodies are hardwired to respond to stressful situations, what the warning signs of an overly stressful lifestyle are and how they affect your health. Once you understand that, you can begin to take control of your life.”

“Our first collaboration, Infertility Explained, was critically acclaimed for its honest and humanistic approach to what it means to be infertile,” says Andrew Johnson, President of iMed Design, Inc.  “Stress and Relaxation Explained continues that successful approach by relating to the average person in easily digestible terms. We also demonstrate highly effective relaxation tools that the viewer can use to help alleviate the harmful effects caused by stress.”

Stress and Relaxation Explained also contains two unique sections:

• Real Life Case Study – Dr. Domar interviews a typical, first-time “patient” in an unscripted session to examine the stresses in her life and how she is attempting to deal with them. Dr. Domar then leads her through two different relaxation exercises for the first time ever, and we witness the immediate rejuvenating effects. This section is designed to show the viewer that their stressful experiences, and their desire to manage them, are not unique and isolating.
• Immersive Imagery Experience – using the latest home theatre sound and visual techniques, a nature-based relaxation exercise is provided so the viewer can practice on their own. Designed specifically to evoke the Relaxation Response, the digital widescreen videography and 5.1 surround soundtrack is a sampler of the interactive Guided Relaxation Immersion series being released later this year by Healthvues.
