Dermatology of the Rockies Among First in Colorado to Offer Latest Noninvasive Brain Stimulation Technology to Optimize Mental Health
LONGMONT, Colo., May 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- It's Mental Health Awareness Month. Those looking to improve mental wellness, treat depression or ease anxiety, now have access to the latest non-invasive technology at Dermatology of the Rockies in Longmont. The Center is one of the first in Colorado to offer EXOMIND, a science-backed solution without medication, pain, or downtime, proven to improve mental clarity and create an enhanced sense of calm. "It is so rewarding to have patients saying their focus and moods have improved," says Kristin Baird, M.D., board-certified dermatologist, founder of Dermatology of the Rockies, and nationally recognized leader in aesthetic medicine. "As we see more research demonstrating the brain-body connection, it is thrilling to have the capability to offer state-of-the-art treatments for patients." EXOMIND, which uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate brain activity, can return a sense of balance to individuals dealing with poor sleep, anxiety, depression or impulsivity. In addition, research shows most patients experienced reduced food cravings and binge eating, resulting in a 4-to-5-pound weight loss. To maximize results, Dr. Baird recommends a 30-minute treatment one or twice a week for three to six weeks. With three dermatologists, one physician's assistant and two aestheticians on staff, Dermatology of the Rockies offers a myriad of dermatology services and leading- edge technologies for fat reduction, muscle-building, incontinence, sexual health, aesthetics, and overall health. Emsculpt NEO uses muscle contractions to reduce up to 30% fat and build up to 25% muscle in hard-to-treat areas, including the abdomen, buttocks, arms and thighs. Dermatology of the Rockies also offers Emface, a non-invasive muscle activation treatment boosting collagen production and tightening facial skin. Another device, EMSELLA, which uses muscle activation to strengthen the pelvic floor is a game changer for both men and women. Patients sit fully clothed in the EMSELLA chair for 30 minutes and 6 treatments in 3 weeks. The procedure has a 98% patient satisfaction rate for restoring bladder function, enabling them to enjoy daily activities without concern of leakage. EMSELLA also improves sexual health leading. To celebrate Mental Health Awareness Month, Dermatology of the Rockies, 1551 Professional Lane, Suite 270, Longmont, offers free consultations and $600 off an EXOMIND treatment package. Call (303) 532-2810 and say, "Mile High Living."

New Data Reveals the Critical Importance of Mental Health Leadership at All Levels
Workforce Mental Health Assessment Releases 2025 Annual Report: Mental Health Leadership at All Levels RUTHERFORD, Calif., April 22, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--One Mind at Work, a global nonprofit dedicated to building the future of workforce mental health, today released the latest insights from the Mental Health at Work Index™. The Index is a standardized assessment of organizational-level initiatives to address workforce mental health. The data show that organizations with leadership support for mental health at every level of the organization were more likely to report improvements in employee satisfaction in the last year. The new annual report titled "Mental Health Leadership at All Levels" demonstrates the critical importance of leadership support for mental health. The findings underscore the positive impact of mental health leadership at the executive, managerial, governance, and grassroots level. In today's complex and rapidly changing environment, organizations that prioritize mental health outperform those that don't. They attract and retain top talent, build resilient teams, and drive better business outcomes. This report unpacks four key findings: C-suite support for mental health isn't cascading. Executives are signaling that mental health matters, but many aren't modeling healthy behaviors or holding others accountable. Managers are pivotal—but need support. They shape the daily experience of employees, yet few are equipped to personalize and champion mental health at the team level. Boards are lagging behind. Despite their oversight role, most boards are not meaningfully engaged in workforce mental health strategy. Employee leadership is untapped. Workers can be powerful change agents, but their insights and influence remain largely underleveraged. "Our goal is to create a positive work environment where managers understand that leadership includes conversations about mental health, knowing the available resources and avenues for support, and being vulnerable with their teams to reinforce our culture of caring for associates." - Liz Davila, Benefits Manager, Capital Group Taking Action for the Future The report reveals that employers that invest in leadership support for mental health can be a force multiplier. Organizations that recognize the importance of leadership support and engagement in mental health efforts are positioned to more effectively support their people through times of uncertainty and change. This report offers data-driven insights from the Mental Health at Work Index™, real-world examples from best-practice organizations, and actionable strategies to help you harness leadership potential across the organization and embed mental health into your culture, operations, and performance metrics.

About the Mental Health at Work Index The Mental Health at Work Index is a self-assessment tool for business leaders who are committed to being data-driven when it comes to workforce mental health. Using the Index, organizations establish the baseline maturity of their mental health programs, pinpoint priority areas that will accelerate the impact of their efforts, and tap into evidence-based resources for optimizing their programs to achieve better outcomes, both for their employees and for their organization.
