Nationwide In-Home Lice Service Now Available to Families in Baton Rouge, Louisiana

BATON ROUGE, La. - March 5, 2015 - PRLog -- Baton Rouge families have a new weapon to combat head lice: LiceDoctors Lice Treatment and Nit Removal Service. The professional service, which operates in over one hundred cities nationwide, launched its service in Baton Rouge in early 2015. LiceDoctors has successfully treated over 130,000 adults and children using an all natural, step-by-step treatment protocol. Head lice is the second biggest cause of school absenteeism; the common cold is number one.

Owner of LiceDoctors, Karen Sokoloff, attributes the company's success to a number of factors. "What makes us unique is that we have a physician on staff, Dr. Stephen Beck, who 20 years ago realized the need for a treatment plan that actually works. Patients were using the chemical lice shampoos, only to find more lice and nits in their hair. Dr. Beck did exhaustive research to come up with our proprietary treatment protocol which is fully effective, safe. and backed with our guarantee that it works. In fact, the plan is so comprehensive that we are recommended by hundreds of pediatriicans, school nurses, school administrators and, of course, former clients."

LiceDoctors' technicians, many of whom have a health care background, undergo intensive training comprehensive background checks. The technician arrives at the homes of families often encountering varying degrees of chaos and frustration in the home. It can be very daunting to parents to find lice in the heads of their children. Baton Rouge mom, Teresa D. voiced common fears, "When we got the call from my daughter's school that they had found head lice, I literally did not know what to do. I had to get all of the eggs and bugs out before they would let her back in. I bought some lice products but, honestly, I could not get a handle on the problem."

Sokoloff reports that they have already gotten a number of calls in the Baton Rouge area. "There is clearly a need for this service in the area. We find higher incidences of lice in warmer climates like Louisiana, Florida, Mississippi, Texas, and other southern states. The answer to overcoming a lice problem is to remove all nits and bugs. If you do not accomplish that you will meet with frustration as the nits that are left will hatch and you will be at square one."
