Arthur L. Scialla and Peter Dardaganis from Ace Reprographic Service, Inc. tell us about the vast capabilities of the company. Basically, they can print on anything except water!

Ace Reprographic Service strives to be the printing and graphics division of your company – your goals are their goals, your deadlines are their deadlines, and your clients are as important to Ace as they are to you. For 80 years, Ace ReproGraphics has been a loyal, quality-driven, dependable service in the printing and graphics industry, and they strive to be the same for the next 80 years as well.

History of the Company (written by Arthur L. Scialla)

Ace Reproduction Service, Inc. was established by my grandfather, Arthur Scialla, Sr. in September of 1933, in the midst of the Great Depression. I always enjoyed hearing him tell the story about one of his first projects, the provision of blueprints for the planning and construction of the Lincoln Tunnel, where they would lower him by cable into the hole at the construction site in order to deliver the prints. During the war years Ace was classified as vital to defense. My grandfather worked around the clock providing blueprints for Wright Aeronautical Co., so they could help keep our planes flying. He never failed to meet a deadline and was devoted to meeting the needs of all his customers.

The tradition of service was then carried on by his son, my father, Arthur M. Scialla. My father has always taken pride in the dedication of our entire crew, to whom he refers affectionately as the Ace Family. He instilled in all of us the ideal that every customer is our most important client.

Currently, as Ace ReproGraphics, Inc., the technology has changed but our commitment to the customer has remained the same. In its third generation as a family-owned and operated business, Ace continues the same commitment to service, quality and excellence on which my grandfather founded this company in 1933. Looking ahead, we are constantly searching for ways to better our organization so we might continue to preserve the same loyalty and respect from our customers that we have garnered for almost eighty years. Our highest hope is that we may continue to move forward together. After all, your success means our success.

Thanks Art and Peter!

We invite you to experience the rejuvenating benefits of massage therapy today and discover the positive effect it can have on your body and your well-being.

Therapeutic massage is a medically proven method for supporting your health and wellness.

You’ll enjoy benefits of…

  • Relief from back and neck pain
  • Reduced stress
  • Increased circulation
  • Improved range of motion

The Benefits of Regular Massage:

Regular monthly massage provides relief to people of all ages and all walks of life from the competitive athlete to the home gardener or the over-stressed business person.

Massage therapy addresses a variety of health conditions, the most prevalent being stress-related tension.

Massage has proven to be beneficial for the following conditions:

  • sleep disorders
  • high blood pressure
  • diabetes
  • depression
  • lower back pain
  • immunity suppression
  • spinal cord injury
  • autism
  • cancer-related fatigue
  • post-operative care
  • age-related disorders
  • infertility
  • eating disorders
  • smoking cessation

Here's why: Massage offers a drug-free, non-invasive and humanistic approach to well-being based on the body's natural ability to heal itself.

Massage therapy provides many benefits, such as:

  • Increases circulation, which allows the body to pump more oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs.
  • Stimulates the lymph system, the body's natural defense, against toxic invaders. For example, in breast cancer patients, massage has been shown to increase the cells that fight cancer.
  • Releases endorphins, the body's natural painkiller. For this reason, massage is incorporated in treatment for chronic illnesses, injury and recovery from surgery to control and relieve pain.
  • Improves range of motion and decreases discomfort associated with lower back pain.
  • Relaxes and softens injured and overused muscles.
  • Reduces muscle spasms and cramping.
  • Increases joint flexibility.
  • Reduces recovery time for strenuous workouts and eliminates subsequent risk of muscle strain.
  • Relieves pain for migraine sufferers and decreases the need for medication.
  • Reduces post-operative adhesions and edema, as well as reduces and realigns scar tissue after healing has occurred.
  • Contributes to shorter labor, reduces the need for medication and aids in quicker recovery in pregnant women.

We have our wellness program where clients can receive massage on a regular basis at a discounted price along with member only specials. No additional fees nor long term contract to me a member of the wellness program.

Thanks Neil!

Joseph J. Opalka, Independent Insurance Agent, has a fun chat with your host Dan Hollis about the handful of key concerns you should be aware of regarding life insurance…...before it’s too late. Joe is also an ambassador with the North Jersey Chamber, so fel free to contact him for help growing your business.

Wayne, NJ

Joseph J. Opalka, a lifelong resident of Wayne, New Jersey, grew up with the core values of family and service to his community firmly ingrained in his life. Over the years, “Joey” consistently became the go-to-guy for everything from routine chores to emergencies involving family, friends and neighbors.

After school Joseph entered the Civil Engineering and Surveying Industry. This gave him financial stability for a while; however, it didn’t give him the satisfaction and knowledge that he made someone’s life better or eased his or her burdens. Joseph had seen many people in his life not only suffer from the emotional loss of a family member or critical illness, they also suffered financially. Confident that his skills and talents would be the cornerstones of a fulfilling career helping individuals protect themselves, he became an Independent Insurance Agent.

Joseph serves the New York - New Jersey area with a special focus on assisting individuals, companies and business owners by providing solutions that meet their specific needs. He wants to get the word out that he is their go-to-guy to learn about options to better protect themselves. Joseph says it’s a win-win for everyone.

Joseph has two younger sisters and his father still resides in the home in which they were raised. Active members of St. Timothy Lutheran Church in Wayne, Joseph and his wife Christine have been married for 15 years and are owned by a parrot named Neo. His other interests and hobbies include cars, woodworking and hanging out with friends.

Thanks for being our guest, Joe!
