BP development decision wait
• By Gabrielle Stuart
A GROUP of residents who
banded together to fight the
expansion of the Edgeware BP
will have to wait to find out who
won.
BP has bought two sections
next to the service station on
the corner of Edgeware Rd and
Cranford St, and plans to build a
bigger forecourt and shop there.
But residents say it will
dominate their neighbourhood,
and destroy the character of the
area.
A hearing was held on Friday
where both sides put their
arguments. Commissioner
David Mountfort has reserved
his decision.
It is likely to be announced
within the next three weeks.
Only two residents who lived
directly next to the site, Kazu
Kano and Mary Botting, were
allowed to present their views at
the hearing.
A number of people from the
area attended the hearing, and
they presented a petition against
the expansion signed by 37
residents.
Mr Kano said it had been very
difficult for residents to fight, because
they were going up against
a big company which could
afford to hire a lot of lawyers and
expert witnesses.
He believed the expansion
was not needed, because over
two weeks he had visited the site
twice a day and had only seen a
queue to use pumps once.
But Cranford St is expected
to get busier once the Northern
Arterial motorway extension is
built.
Under the city council’s district
plan, the expansion should
not be allowed because the
properties BP wants to build on
are zoned residential.
But the city council
has recommended the
redevelopment should be
allowed so long as it sticks to
strict rules around things like
delivery times and landscaping
of the site.

Petition aims to fix intersection
In Brief
A former city councillor has launched a petition
to improve safety around the busy Harewood Rd
Fashion
junction
• By Andrew King
A PETITION to take
immediate action over a
Harewood intersection has
been started by a community
board deputy chairman.
The Breens, Gardiners and
Harewood Rds intersection
Gardening
has been a serious concern for
residents and parents whose
children need to cross it to get
to school.
Shirley-Papanui Community
Board deputy chairman Aaron
Keown has started a petition to
force the city council to make
changes to the intersection.
Motoring
“It’s dangerous and needs change,” he said.
He started to deliver them on
Tuesday, beginning with nearby
businesses with workers who
use the intersection.
“I will definitely be handing
it out around both Breens
Intermediate and Casebrook
Intermediate whose students
Tasty Bites
use the intersection,” he said.
Valentino’s Hair Design
owner Adem Ferkatovich was
one of the first to receive the
petition and said everyone who
had looked at it, signed it.
“We have about 30 signatures
already,” he said.
He agreed the intersection
needed to be looked at.
“It has been a problem for
many years now,” he said.
It is the second intersection
near Breens Intermediate to
come under fire from residents.
Bishopdale residents have
asked the city council to build
a pedestrian island in the middle
of busy Farrington Ave,
near where it intersects with
Wairakei Rd, to assist students
to get through the traffic.
The city council has said
there are no plans to make
further safety changes to
either intersections – but has
agreed to listen to community
concerns.
HAVE YOUR SAY: Would
you sign a petition
supporting the change of
Harewood intersection or is
it not a big problem? Share

FIRST: Shirley-Papanui Community Board deputy chairman
Aaron Keown hands out the first of many petitions to Valentino’s
Hair Design owner Adem Ferkatovich to change a Harewood
intersection.
REPAIRS START
The Mona Vale Fernery in
Fendalton, which was damaged in
the earthquakes, is being repaired
and strengthened. The city
council has engaged contractor
Dominion Construction Ltd to fix
the damage to the building and
strengthen it. The work should be
completed by the end of October.
The exotic and native ferns will
not be impacted by the work,
which is mainly happening on the
exterior of the building.
ROAD CLOSURE
A temporary road closure will be
in place along Dover St while work
is underway to repair sections
of an earthquake-damaged
wastewater pipe. The closure will
be temporary between Radnor St
and 36 Dover St. It’s expected to
take up to one week to finish and
started yesterday.
SUGAR-FREE DAYS
Elmwood Normal School is asking
pupils and parents to go sugar-free
every Tuesday during the third
term. The plan is to eat lunches
that have as little sugar as possible,
while educating the pupils about
what added sugar is and what
products should be avoided. The
school will also run a parent’s
session on the subject to get the
message home.

Davidson says speed
review disappointing
ashion
• By Andrew King
A REVIEW of speed limits
in Christchurch has not
included a reduction around
schools which has been
labelled “disappointing” by a
community board chairman.
Four roads in the north-west
Gardening
have been recommended for
lower speed limits after a review
by city council traffic staff and
suggestions from the Shirley-
Papanui Community Board.
Certain sections
of Blakes, Belfast,
Greywacke and
Highsted Rds will
have lower speed
otoring
limits imposed
from October
31, if the recommendations
from the board are
approved by the city council.
But board chairman Mike
Davidson (above) said he was
disappointed the board’s request
to lower speeds from 50km/h to
30km/h around schools was not
asty Bites
adopted part of the review.
“We think it is something
that should have been seriously
considered,” he said.
City council traffic operations
manager Steffan Thomas said
the submission has not been
rejected, it requires further
analysis.
He said staff will have to determine
which school frontages
that have alternative or more
appropriate traffic management
options such as traffic signals requiring
motorists to stop, rather
than slow down, or vertical traffic
calming devices which create
operating speeds much lower
than a speed zone already.
Also they will have to assess
the impact of the new speed
management guideline just
released by New Zealand
Transport Agency on
speed limits in general and
SAFETY FIRST:
The Shirley-
Papanui
Community
Board
suggested
speed limits
around
schools be
lowered to
30km/h.
particularly around schools.
He said all of that is being
worked through, with a tentative
completion date of September
30.
Mr Davidson said the unpredictability
of children should be
taken into account and if there
was a lower speed limit around
schools then pupils would be
better protected.
“It is not about inhibiting people’s
driving pleasure, it is about
safety,” he said.
HAVE YOUR SAY: Should
all schools have a 30km/h
speed limit? Share your

KEEPING
WATCH:
Nursery
worker Mike
Smith at the
Harewood
Nursery.
City’s many trees begin
life at Harewood Nursery
CHRISTCHURCH is well
known for its parks filled with
established trees.
Many of these huge specimens
started their lives as seedlings
in a city council-run nursery in
Harewood.
The Harewood Nursery grows
thousands of shrubs, trees and
other plants used in city parks,
street landscaping, and the regeneration
of native bush on the
Port Hills and wetland areas.
It was established in 1978 and
for the past 38 years a small team
of staff have been quietly collecting
seeds, propagating cuttings,
and nursing trees into the mature
specimens.
The red maples that will be a
major feature of the Earthquake
Memorial Park are being looked
after at the nursery until they
are ready to be moved to their
permanent home.
The nursery is not open to the
public, but it houses a selection
of plants stretching over 11ha
including native grasses, astelias,
magnolias, heritage fruit trees,
upright oaks, red oaks, pin oaks,
hornbeams, field maples and
turkish tree hazels.
“We grow what the city council’s
landscapers want us to grow
basically, and we try and keep up
with it,” nursery supervisor Joe
Cartman said.
In the 12 months to June
the nursery dispatched 1600
specimen trees and 240,000
smaller grade plants.

Pokémon stop or go?
This week’s
opinion piece
is written by
Ilam resident
and charity
founder Kelly
Dugan. He
writes about a strange new
phenomenon sweeping
the nation and captivating
children in his area
The other night at around
10, I went outside my house to
investigate noises.
Nothing too unusual. I live
on a main road but the difference
was the voices were from
children, unusual at that time
of night.
I stood at the end of my driveway
and saw around 15 people
loitering with their phones held
up like periscopes so I looked up
(maybe a UFO was flying over?)
It was a UFO but a soon to
be identified unidentified flying
object, it seems there was a
Pokémon on my street.
A UPO perhaps.
I have heard of the Pokémon
craze taking hold of adults and
children alike, the concerns of
safety due to people running
onto roads, falling into ditches
and running into power poles.
I waited and none of these
hazards occurred. All I witnessed
were kids out with their
parents.
They were still attached it
their phones but this was different,
they were off the couch,
they were outdoors and they
were moving around chasing
some elusive computer-generated
UPO.
Sure it was late; these kids
should be in bed, but then I
remembered when I was young
(in the 70s and 80s), when being
out at night was an adventure
and exciting.
With all the negativity in this
craze, there is a good side –
children and their parents out
together in the fresh air having
fun and having something in
common. If you run into a lamp
post or into traffic, you are an
idiot with or without the UPOs.
Do you have swarms of
kids chasing pocket
monsters around your
neighbourhood? Is it
good to get kids outdoors
looking for them, or is it a
dangerous pastime? Share

Spate of blazes keeps
firefighters busy
• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk
Management Officer
THERE HAVE been a number of
quite serious fires in the city this
week. And this column is being
written, hurriedly, before I head
off to one of them.
The deliberate fire set in the
empty building on Hereford St
last Friday was another example
of our firefighters being put in
danger by the reckless and criminal
actions of some idiot.
The fire was on an upper floor
and the only way to get to it was
from inside.
This meant climbing stairwells
with charged fire hoses in a
building with structural safety
issues that was already compromised
by earthquake damage
even before the fire damage
occurred.
In this case, the fire crews did a
brilliant job in restricting the fire
to the floor of origin.
It’s just that they should never
have had to.
Last Saturday, we had an incident
where a young woman was
burnt trying to encourage a fire
in a drum at a property in Hoon
Hay that was dying down by
GUTTED: Another fire, this time in Woolston, has kept
firefighters and investigators busy. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
throwing petrol on to it.
These type of incidents are
actually not all that rare.
Even in winter, petrol products
freed into the air invisibly
vaporise, leaving a surrounding
mixture of highly-flammable gas
that is many times larger than a
pool or splash of fuel.
On meeting an ignition source
– in this case the already burning
fire – the vapour cloud ignites.
Sometimes with horrendous
results.
Not a nice way to remember a
party, where alcohol consumption
can overcome normal
common sense and influence a
decision that, in hindsight, might
just be seen as ‘unwise’.

personalised, friendly service
Grassam real estate was
established in Cavendish Business Park
in June 2010 after Gillman real estate
was absorbed by simes and Knight
Frank real estate agencies.
real estate salespeople Paul and
Fay had both previously worked for
Gillman real estate, mostly in North
Canterbury and Christchurch, selling
and listing for their many clients.
When Pauline and Juline Grassam
decided to start their own business,
Paul joined them as their licensee
agent and Fay joined a short time
later. Paul and Fay are very established
salespeople, Fay having 17 years’
experience and Paul 37 years, and both
work independently. Paul also manages
the company’s Property management
portfolio.
What do people expect from their
real estate salesperson?
Personalised, professional service
with all the advantages of local
knowledge. Buying a home is a big
investment and selling can be stressful.
Both Paul and Fay are equipped with
the knowledge, skills and resources to
provide exceptional results.
If you are thinking of buying or
selling, give Paul or Fay a ring any
time for a friendly chat about what is
happening in the market and find out

Quality takeaways popular with customers
WheN It comes to takeaways,
there is probably nothing
healthier or more delicious
than mediterranean

main North road.
There, the focus is on
quality ingredients and
fast service, with the aim
of providing fresh, healthy
takeaways for their many
satisfied customers. The menu
includes three sizes of souvlaki
made with locally produced pita
bread, locally sourced
organic yogurt and
a choice of juicy,
tender topside
beef steak,
chicken or
lamb leg
marinated
and cooked
to perfection,
set meals with
rice or couscous, snack
boxes and combos, drinks, wedges,
and one of the most popular items
NOR’WEST NEWS
– their high-quality fries.
Customers come not only from
across the redwood area,
but also from Kaiapoi
and rangiora, and
even New Brighton.
Further testimony to
the quality and flavour
of the food at redwood
souvlaki are the positive
comments and ratings on
Google and on the trip
advisor website, where it
has a traveller rating of
‘excellent’ and is described
by one reviewer as a ‘Friday
favourite – a++, and another
as ‘Great takeaway’, both
comments being posted

Out Of Hand
Ben Reid’s primary interest for his printmaking is NZ’s
environment and the impact of humans on our precious land.
His work often depicts tales of loss of habitat, extinction of
species and introduced and exotic predators.
The print work produced in 2016 is a continuation of themes
of NZ’s preservation. Narratives within each work consider
isolation, regret, time passing, acknowledgement of our history,
where we live and what NZ is, and what it means to us, also
about hope and optimism, and accepting and learning from our
mistakes, past and present.
As told by Warren Feeney, “Reid’s delicate, elegantly structured
and at times gently humorous prints are here to remind us of
what is at stake: the unselfconscious grace and beauty of New
Zealand’s indigenous birds and the way they enrich our world”.
Marahau wood carving artist Tim Wraight describes works for
this exhibition come from 2 streams.
“Firstly there are 2 carved cubes of Totara wood in which I
explore the laying of pattern onto a strong form, with a
whimsical approach combining dancing figures and a quite
formal pattern.
The other group of works; old hand tools refashioned for
‘ritual’ purposes, with new carved handles and decorations of
feathers, fibre and found objects, give reference and reverence
to rural traditions and pre mass production industry, and the
people who powered these tools with their physical selves. As
a hand tool user I am aware of the intimate relationship with
the material that the user obtains and indeed needs in order
to succeed in their work. Sound, sight, touch, force and a feel
for the interaction between material and tool all come into play.
I am drawn to the beauty of hand forged steel, and learnt from
my grandfather how to use and maintain these simple but
efficient objects.”

Nurse Maude COMMuNITY ParTNersHIPs
driving force behind Nurse Maude
The supporT of the people of
Christchurch for Nurse Maude’s work
started the day sibylla Maude first
stepped out on the streets of Christchurch
120 years ago with the community
recognising the need and responding.
“Just as Nurse Maude has always been
a large part of the community, so the
community has been such a large part
of Nurse Maude,” says sue Bramwell,
general manager of marketing for Nurse
Maude.
That partnership with the community
continues today through its support of
Nurse Maude’s hospice shops, Maudes
on Trade Me and key sponsorships which
include harcourts holmwood.
harcourts holmwood has been,
literally, behind Nurse Maude for
more than seven years now, with its
sponsorship of an initial five cars now
increased to more than 30.
every year sales consultants from
harcourts holmwood are clocking up
millions of kilometres across the greater
Christchurch and Canterbury region.
The Nurse Maude cars are on the road
seven days a week, delivering nursing
care across Canterbury and the chances
are when you see one of Nurse Maude’s
distinctive white cars on the road that the
back window will be carrying the name
and photo of a sales consultant from the
harcourts holmwood franchise.
With the agents’ photo, name and
contact details in the rear window, both
harcourts holmwood and Nurse Maude
are benefiting from the partnership and
Bramwell says mutual benefit is what a
good sponsorship agreement is all about.
“For us it’s essential support for Nurse
Maude, for harcourts holmwood it’s
a very effective way of letting people
know that the company not only cares
about supporting the community it does
business with, it is actually doing so,” says
Bramwell.
harcourts holmwood has found
that people like the fact that the sales
consultants they list their home with are
donating a significant amount of money
to Nurse Maude every year.
playing a key part in helping Nurse
Maude care for the people of Canterbury
doesn’t just start and stop with Nurse
Maude’s cars however.
harcourts holmwood’s support went
above and beyond during the earthquakes
when its sales consultants turned out
to help deliver water, portable toilets
and blankets to Nurse Maude’s most
vulnerable clients.
It also has regular clothing drives for
the Nurse Maude hospice shops and
gathers donations from its events.
“Individually and collectively the
people of harcourts holmwood have
contributed a great deal to the work of
Nurse Maude,” says Bramwell.
“It’s an enduring sponsorship of which
they are justifiably proud and we are very
fortunate to have.”

Nurse Maude COMMuNITY ParTNersHIPs
Perfect synergy
in sponsorship
There are some partnerships that just make perfect sense, and the one
between eCoCentral and Nurse Maude would be one of those.
WheN Nurse Maude started
Maudes on Trade Me, selling almost
everything from furniture to fine
jewellery to raise money for its nursing
services it soon ran out of storage
space.
“In the past a lack of space meant
that Maudes on Trade Me, had often
been unable to take large volumes of
donated goods,” says sue Bramwell,
general manager marketing for Nurse
Maude.
With the considerable resources of
eCoCentral now behind it, however,
Maudes on Trade Me is able to clear
entire house lots, moving the larger
items through the eCoshop on
Blenheim road.
The partnership has been a great
success with Maudes on Trade Me now
able to clear entire house lots and take
in a much broader range of furniture
and whiteware.
“people can still drop smaller items
off to any of our hospice shops,” says
Bramwell, “but we can now go out and
collect house lots of saleable furniture
and whiteware if people want to email
us or give us a call.”
For Judi sefton, Chief executive
of eCoCentral and Jim Magee,
Chief executive of Nurse Maude,
the partnership simply makes sense,
allowing a wide range of goods to be
recycled and sold to support Nurse
Maude’s services rather than be
dumped.
“eCoCentral is all about maximising
the volume of goods that can be
recycled and minimising landfill,” says
sefton, “and to be able to do that while
helping raise money for Nurse Maude
can only be a good thing.”
“The partnership between
eCoCentral and Nurse Maude
clearly demonstrates the huge value
the business community can bring
to organisations such as ours,” says
Bramwell.
Those who need to downsize, clear
some space or simply see unwanted
furniture and household goods to
benefit the wider community rather
than just be dumped see Maudes on
Trade Me as the ideal home for those
items.
For Nurse Maude it means much
needed financial support for nursing
services at a time of increasing demand,
while eCoCentral is all about caring
for the community through recycling
and reducing landfill.
“ecoCentral and Nurse Maude
talk about caring for the people of
Canterbury together and that is exactly
what’s happening here,” says Bramwell.
“everyone is benefiting.”
With the considerable
resources of eCoCentral
now behind it, Maudes on
Trade Me is able to clear
entire house lots, moving
the larger items through
the eCoshop on
Blenheim road.

Get rid of dampness
in your house
noW WITH the colder and wetter weather on
its way, home owners are focusing on ways to
make their homes comfortable, warm and healthy
for their families throughout winter. rISIng
DAMP is an issue that affects many of our
older properties which suffer from poor, or no,
insulation. In Canterbury especially, post-quake,
many people have relocated to homes that suffer
from rising damp which can be associated with
health problems. Independent tests have shown
that up to 40 litres of water can rise from the
ground and enter a house every day, leading to
mildew, mould, condensation and musty smells.
Moulds can produce various allergic reactions
and the frail, elderly and very young are especially
vulnerable.
Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a locally
owned and operated firm. The team understands
the problems caused by rising damp and are
there to help. They will come to your damp home
and pump a lightweight, flowable foam concrete
under your timber floored home. Specially
adapted for our new Zealand conditions and
applications it provides a layer of protection
against rising moisture. An unexpected benefit
that the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete
have noticed recently, is that many owners
of properties which had underfloor foam
concrete installed, reported that it also provided
protection against liquefaction after
the earthquakes.
Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd
now for your free, no obligation quote and
complimentary appraisal of your underfloor
ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or 0508

This includes both the exchange of air to the
outside as well as circulation of air within the
building. It is one of the most important factors
for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in
buildings.
Filtered air supply for summer and filtered
and warmed air in winter creates a healthy
environment in which to live and work. In case
of poor or insufficient air intake from outside,
the oxygen content decreases, humidity and
dustiness levels increase. If exhaust ventilation
is not provided or it is not effective, polluted air,
smells, humidity and harmful substances are not
removed.
Low oxygen with high carbon dioxide causes
stuffiness in the room and occupants can feel
drowsy. Invisible harmful substances like a
high content of dust and tobacco smoke are
harmful and can cause various diseases. even
bad smells can cause discomfort or irritate the
nervous system. In summer, it’s easy to open
windows for cross ventilation, however as winter
approaches, we start to shut up out houses to
trap in the heat and as a result, air quality can
decline.
It is therefore very important to ensure good
air quality indoors through adequate ventilation.

MIRACLE OIL
ReveRed foR centuries by Polynesians

dilo tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”.
The dilo tree draws its sustenance directly
from the nutrient rich warm waters of the
Pacific ocean.
dilo oil is also called “the beauty oil”
as it can penetrate all three layers of the
skin offering exceptional cell hydration
and regeneration. It has a unique ability
to stimulate the growth of healthy skin
cells and the formation of new tissue
giving it powerful anti-aging properties
that can help reduce lines, blemishes,
scars, stretchmarks, dry or scaly skin, skin
redness and repair damaged skin.
It also possesses anti-inflammatory,
antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant and
sun protective properties and is commonly
used on most skin ailments including
rosacea, pimples, ulcers and sores,
acne and acne scars, psoriasis, eczema,
dermatitis, rashes, blisters, skin eruptions,
warts, insect bites and stings, athlete’s
foot, burns, sunburn, cuts and cracks,
nappy rash, and many more often with
incredible results. Also it is used for joint
and muscular pain and may even help
stimulate healing.

PREVENt fALLS IN COLD wEAthER
Warm up sleepy muscles
and joints gently.
Winter ground is often wet, very cold and
slippery, making it easy to fall which results
in injury, sometimes serious.
Cold muscles and joints are tight and stiff,
don’t perform well, less ready for action and
warming them up gently will loosen them
and ease them into movement.
A good warm up keeps the body working
like a well-oiled machine. Joints and muscles
work together for maximum efficiency and
full body strength which is vital for injury
prevention.
You can warm up muscles, joints, hands and
feet while watching Tv with an Aircycle
circulation booster. The gentle exercise will
help strengthen leg muscles and increase
joint flexibility for better balance and to help

you stay on your feet.
A few minutes Aircycle exercise while
sitting down with a coffee, chatting to a
friend or reading the paper will get your
blood pumping, keep joints and muscles
warm, flexible and strong, to improve

Liposomal Vitamin C Offers
More health Benefits
Liposomal vitamin C is a technological breakthrough and may offer
incredible health benefits.
vitamin C is a vital antioxidant nutrient
that plays a critical role in the immune
function. White blood cells depend upon
vitamin C in order to survive and withstand
the attack of pathogens and free radicals.
environmental toxins damage cells that
leads to disease but vitamin C and other
antioxidants can neutralize this damage.
vitamin C does not directly attack cancer
cells but helps keep the immune system
strong. The immune system fights cancer
cells with hydrogen peroxide, a natural type
of chemotherapy to destroy the cancer cells.
vitamin C may help prevent one of our
worst diseases and many researchers believe
it to be a useful part of a comprehensive
cancer treatment protocol.
vitamin C also has many other important
roles in the body. It is a major constituent in
the production of collagen, ligaments, bones,
discs, tendons and skin. It has been shown to
improve the healing process of burns, cuts,
wounds, sprains/strains and broken bones as
well as reduce inflammation and pain. It is
known to support cardiovascular function,
blood flow and keep the blood vessels strong
but flexible. vitamin C has numerous other
health benefits including supporting lung
function, balanced blood sugar levels and
eye health.
vitamin C cannot be produced in the
body but must come from our diet. our
bodies require much more vitamin C
than ever before due to our more stressful
lifestyle and toxic environment. Many
researchers believe it is impossible to obtain
enough vitamin C in a normal healthy diet.
Most oral vitamin C supplements are
believed to have an absorption rate of as low
as 20%. This is due to vitamin C being water
soluble and our cell membranes being made
up of fat and the fact that water and fat don’t
mix.
Liposomal vitamin C is made by
combining essential phospholipid fatty acids
with vitamin C to form nano-size particles
that can easily pass through the digestive
system into the bloodstream and into the
cells. The absorption rate is over 90% and
liposomal vitamin C is easily stored in the
body for use when required.

Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or
could it be mainly my muscles?
The team at Physical sense in sydenham sees clients with a range
of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and senior clients
visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.
PhysiotheraPist ietje van
stolk suggests that a major part of the
pain could be due to muscle pain rather
than simply arthritis. “even if an x-ray
shows arthritis, the reason for the pain
may be the muscles around the joint,”
she explains. The images show how
a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back
muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain
are the red areas in the drawings), a knot
in a muscle on the back of the shoulder
blade can give a deep pain in the front
of the shoulder and a muscle knot all the
way near the groin can give an ache in
the knee (especially at night in bed).
ietje recalls one case where an 89
year old client with severe arthritis who
walked with a stick, told her, “i will
end up in a wheelchair, i cannot put
any weight through my right leg due to
pain in my hip and buttock”. “Within
4 treatments, she was walking with
her stick but without the severe pain,”
says ietje. “The arthritis was one of the
factors that made her muscles spasm but
the other was that older people move
less and the flexed position the hip is
in when we sit is particularly bad for
the hip.” ietje is happy with the fact that
although the client was 89 and could
have been “given up on” or told to live
with the pain, she made a difference to
her health and wellbeing.
The same lack of movement can
be the reason for your knee pain or
your shoulder pain and the same few
treatments could make a huge difference
for you.
at Physical sense, hands-on
techniques (massage and triggerpoint
deactivation techniques) are used
to release the muscles. The client
also gets a home exercise program
designed to mobilize and stretch the
joint, strengthen the important core
muscles and increase general strength
and balance. They teach a movement
sequence that stretches the joint in all
directions whilst the client is able to lie
safely on their bed, perfect for older or
SHOULDER
PAIN
KNEE PAIN
HIP PAIN
(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)
less mobile clients.
in many cases having the muscles
released and being taught how to
maintain it, is enough to stay on top of
the problem. if severe arthritis is the
underlying cause, some maintenance
therapy may be necessary, but that is
often more affordable and, for older
patients, better tolerated than surgery. in
very few treatments the client will know
if it is going to work for them or not,
without financial commitment.
Physical sense Gym & Physio
is located at 300 Colombo street,
sydenham. The Blue line Bus stops in
front of the door and there is ample
parking. to enquire about specialised
