Things to do and see<br />
Craftsman Farms:<br />
Craftsman Farms was founded in 1908 in Parsippany-Troy Hills, Morris County, New Jersey, by noted<br />
early 20th century designer Gustav Stickley as a farm and school for the Arts and Crafts movement. It<br />
remained in use until 1915 when it was sold to a family and became a private house.<br />
When threatened by development in 1989, the home was purchased by the Township of Parsippany-<br />
Troy Hills through eminent domain. The property is operated as a museum, also known as the Stickley<br />
Museum at Craftsman Farms, and is operated by the Craftsman Farms Foundation.<br />
The Stickley Museum at Craftsman Farms is open for tours year round Thursday through Sunday. The<br />
grounds, a town park, are open from dawn till dusk.<br />

The Whippany Railway Museum has been bringing to life the history<br />

& WELLNESS CENTER<br />
Located in the heart of Tenafly in the<br />
lower level of the CVS building, you<br />
will find a Total Wellness Center. It is a<br />
hidden jewel that will inspire you and<br />
take you to that place of inner knowing<br />
and abilities.<br />
Through Karate one learns to grow<br />
and expand beyond their everyday<br />
limits. Karate is an art form that has<br />
you challenge yourself through your<br />
body. Shukokai Karate is a Martial Art<br />
that creates great physical strength as<br />
well as inner strength.<br />
Sensei Shigeru Kimura developed this<br />
style, which encompasses a whole<br />
body approach. It is through the inner<br />
workings of the body, mind, and<br />
spirit that you will find great satisfaction<br />
while learning how to defend yourself<br />
and also how to overcome obstacles.<br />
This teaching is more than just working<br />
with the body. The lessons taught also<br />
translate to your daily activities.<br />
The discipline that comes with temperance,<br />
humility, patience, creativity<br />
and effort. (these are our dojo creed),<br />
come together to give you much<br />
more than a mere workout. It is a way<br />
of life. Something that you can always<br />
work to improve on. Always striving<br />
for more growth. Sort of like playing a<br />
chess game with yourself, having you<br />
come out the winner.<br />
Along with Karate we also offer meditation<br />
classes for women and children.<br />
Energy Healing sessions, and workshops<br />
that assist in empowering you to<br />
be more whole, to be more centered,<br />
to relieve stress from the hustle and<br />
bustle of everyday life. Each of these<br />
activities works towards releasing repeating<br />
patterns and limiting beliefs<br />
that do not serve your higher good.<br />
The energy work Sensei Linda does releases<br />
lower energies that prevent you<br />
from living your desired life. In place<br />
comes a newness that empowers you<br />
and allows you to move towards your<br />
desires with an easy flow. You can find<br />
out more by visiting her website lindaarmstrong.com<br />

Tenafly<br />
Tenafly is a borough in Bergen<br />
County, New Jersey. As of the<br />
2010 census, the borough’s population<br />
was 14,488, reflecting an<br />
increase of 682 (+4.9%) from the<br />
13,806 counted in the 2000 Census,<br />
which had in turn increased<br />
by 480 (+3.6%) from the 13,326<br />
counted in the 1990 Census.<br />
Tenafly is a suburb of New York City.<br />
The first European settlers in Tenafly<br />
were Dutch immigrants, who began<br />
to populate the area during<br />
the late 17th century. The name<br />
“Tenafly” itself is derived from the<br />
early-modern Dutch phrase “Tiene<br />
Vly” or “Ten Swamps” which was<br />
given by Dutch settlers in 1688.<br />
Other derivations cite a Dutch language<br />
connection to its location<br />
on a meadow.<br />
Tenafly was incorporated as a borough<br />
on January 24, 1894, by an<br />
Act of the New Jersey Legislature<br />
from portions of the now-defunct<br />
Palisades Township, based on the<br />
results of a referendum held the<br />
previous day. The borough was the<br />
first formed during the “Boroughitis”<br />
phenomenon then sweeping<br />
through Bergen County, in which<br />
26 boroughs were formed in the<br />
county in 1894 alone.<br />
New Jersey Monthly magazine<br />
ranked Tenafly as the 7th best<br />
place to live in New Jersey in its<br />
2013 rankings of the “Best Places<br />
To Live” in New Jersey.<br />

What is Neuromuscular Therapy?<br />
Neuromuscular therapy is a very specific and scientific<br />
massage technique.<br />
Spasms, or trigger points, setup at neuro receptor sites in<br />
muscle tissue through out the body. Every muscle has a<br />
predetermined pattern of where and number of spasms<br />
that will set up in that particular muscle.<br />
Each spasm also has a specific pain pattern that it<br />
causes. The pain can be local to where the spasm is<br />
located or it can refer to an entirely different part of the<br />
body.<br />
For an example, the psoas is a muscle in the front of<br />
the body in the abdomen area that refers pain to the<br />
lower back. The spasms and pain patterns are the exact<br />
same in every human being.<br />
Blood flow is essential to muscle tissue for three specific<br />
reasons: it removes toxins; it provides nutrition; and it<br />
provides oxygen.<br />
When the primary spasms set up in muscle tissue, it<br />
slows down the rate of blood flow to that muscle which<br />
then causes ischemia (lack of blood flow). The ischemia<br />
then causes the muscle to become hyper tonic<br />
and allows the secondary spasms to set up.<br />
Usually there is a primary spasm and then satellite or<br />
secondary spasms that then set up later. As the inital<br />
muscle becomes more contracted, toxic, tender and<br />
begins to refer pain, we then start to compensate for<br />
that pain then secondary muscles become involved.<br />
It basically is a domino effect that just continues to get<br />
worse until we have limited range of motion from the<br />
pain.<br />
Spasms set up in muscle tissue for a variety of reasons<br />
- over use (repetitive stress movement); under use (staying<br />
in the same position); misuse (a secondary muscle<br />
firing when it should be a primary mover); and trauma<br />
(an accident of some sort, or a viral or bacterial infection).<br />
How Do You Get Out of Pain?<br />
The only way is to have the spasms treated. Once the<br />
spasm is treated and removed hyperemia (increased<br />
blood flow) returns to the muscle, and the process reverses<br />
itself.<br />
What happens when the spasms are removed?<br />
Increased blood circulation to the muscles, allowing<br />
for faster muscle repair, increased flexibility, increased<br />
range of motion, decreased stress and dpression, reduced<br />
pain, reduced stiffness, improved sleep patterns.<br />

Overpeck Golf Course<br />
273 E Cedar Ln, Teaneck, <strong>NJ</strong> 07666 | Phone:(201) 837-3029<br />
The 6,584 yard par 72 Overpeck golf course features ample fairways<br />
and large greens. Wind is always a factor but the real challenge exists<br />
in skillfully avoiding the abundance of water. Situated on the northern<br />
tip of the New Jersey Meadowlands, holes cross over, run adjacent to<br />
and are surrounded by hazards.<br />
The Overpeck Creek bisects holes #5, 6, 7 and 9 requiring carries on<br />
the drive at #6, and the second shot on the others. Every hole on the<br />
front has water in play.<br />
The back nine starts dry as #10 and 11 but the walk to the 12th tee<br />
reveals a large lake that comes into play on most of the closing seven<br />
holes. Returning to the clubhouse with the same ball from the first tee is<br />
a true accomplishment.<br />

<strong>Cresskill</strong> is a borough in Bergen County, New Jersey. As of the 2010 United States Census, the borough’s population was 8,573, reflecting<br />
an increase of 827 (+10.7%) from the 7,746 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 188 (+2.5%) from the 7,558 counted<br />
in the 1990 Census. This town got its name from “Cress”, referring to the watercress which grew in its streams, and “Kill”, referring to the stream<br />
passing through.<br />
<strong>Cresskill</strong> was incorporated as a borough by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature on May 8, 1894, from portions of Palisades Township. The borough<br />
was formed during the “Boroughitis” phenomenon then sweeping through Bergen County, in which 26 boroughs were formed in the county<br />
in 1894 alone. A portion of the borough was annexed by Alpine in 1904.<br />
Railroads provided access from <strong>Cresskill</strong> to customers in New York City, including a chicken hatchery that was the world’s largest by 1897. Railroad<br />
access helped make <strong>Cresskill</strong> the home of Camp Merritt, the major debarkation point for more than a million American troops being sent<br />
abroad to fight in World War I. A large obelisk memorial (referred to by locals as “The Monument”, or “The Circle Monument” was dedicated in<br />
1924, set in the middle of the Camp Merritt Memorial Circle at the intersection of Madison Avenue and Knickerbocker Road (CR 505), to commemorate<br />
the fact.<br />
