A day out<br />

in the mud<br />

Elmwood Normal School pupil Jonty<br />

Johnson, 7, scrambled his way through the<br />

mud at last week’s Muddy Good Run. The<br />

children’s course was 1.5km of running<br />

through muddy pits, down slippery slides<br />

and over hay bales.<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

A MAN protesting road works,<br />

which he says will narrow<br />

the street too much and limit<br />

access, has packed in his<br />

placard.<br />

Murray Turley stood out in<br />

the rain for two days on the<br />

corner of Grassmere St and<br />

Main North Rd protesting<br />

about a “killer bulge” that pedestrians<br />

will use to cross Main<br />

North Rd.<br />

Work came to a brief pause<br />

last week when Mr Turley stood<br />

on the construction site and<br />

forced Fulton Hogan to pack<br />

up and leave.<br />

However, after the city<br />

council’s investigation into<br />

Mr Turley’s concerns, work on<br />

the pedestrian crossing access<br />

restarted on Friday.<br />

Papanui city councillor Mike<br />

Davidson visited residents in<br />

Grassmere St, including Mr<br />

Turley, and listened to the<br />

problems they had with the<br />

work to come up with a solution.<br />

As a way to ease their concerns,<br />

Cr Davidson organised<br />

a simulation of a truck and<br />

boat navigating an intersection<br />

identical to Grassmere St and<br />

Main North Rd.<br />

Principal’s plea: Stop speeding<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

DRIVERS HITTING the<br />

accelerator past Harewood<br />

School are causing concern for<br />

the safety of pupils.<br />

Principal Julie<br />

Greenwood is<br />

pleading for<br />

drivers to slow<br />

down as they pass<br />

the school, saying<br />

Julie<br />

Greenwood<br />

many seem to<br />

have a case of<br />

“lead foot.”<br />

When coming off Johns Rd<br />

on to Harewood Rd, some<br />

drivers don’t seem not to notice<br />

the 40km/h speed limit sign,<br />

Mrs Greenwood said.<br />

“We’ve had a couple vehicles<br />

go through the crossing patrol<br />

when the signs were out.”<br />

She said police had used<br />

a speed gun to catch drivers<br />

and took the issue to the<br />

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood<br />

Community Board.<br />

The school has since been<br />

liaising with board member<br />

Aaron Campbell.<br />

Mr Campbell said he and<br />

the school have been trying to<br />

get the speed limit outside the<br />

school permanently reduced<br />

during off-peak hours.<br />

He said that is unlikely to<br />

happen.<br />

Outside pick-up and<br />

drop-off times, the stretch of<br />

road in front of the school is<br />

70km/h. However, because<br />

of road upgrades, it has been<br />

50km/h for the past three<br />

years.<br />

Traffic engineers have said<br />

there is not enough residential<br />

housing in the area to justify a<br />

permanent 50km/h speed limit.<br />

So far the school has<br />

upgraded the 40km/h signs to<br />

make them more prominent to<br />

drivers.<br />

But Mr Campbell is worried<br />

about the predicted increase<br />

in traffic along Harewood Rd<br />

due to the planned Western<br />

Corridor.<br />

If the school can’t get the<br />

speed permanently decreased,<br />

Mrs Greenwood said she wants<br />

people to be more vigilant and<br />

slow down.<br />

CONCERN:<br />

Pupil safety<br />

is of concern<br />

at Harewood<br />

School with<br />

some cars not<br />

stopping at<br />

the school’s<br />

crossing.<br />

PHOTO: GEOFF<br />

SLOAN<br />

“We need drivers to actually<br />

think what if that was my child?<br />

They need to put on that hat<br />

and I think that would help,”<br />

she said.<br />

But for now, the school will<br />

rely on its road patrol to keep<br />

pupils are safe.<br />

“Our road patrol does a<br />

fabulous job, but we have to be<br />

very vigilant – we wait a long<br />

time before letting children<br />

cross.”<br />

In Brief<br />

ELMWOOD SPORTS HUB<br />

The Elmwood Club is undertaking<br />

a major expansion of its facilities<br />

by building a major sporting<br />

hub on its site in Heaton St.<br />

Motorway and cycleway flaws<br />

Papanui resident Phil Day<br />

reflects on the current<br />

concerns in his area – the<br />

third lane on the Northern<br />

Motorway and the<br />

cycleway on Grassmere St<br />

One wonders sometimes if city<br />

council shares a single brain cell.<br />

I’ve got a copy of the 1968<br />

Northern Motorway plans,<br />

which direct the traffic through<br />

the Flockton Basin, linking on<br />

to the one-way Barbadoes and<br />

Madras Sts.<br />

There is old Post Office<br />

engineers land at the end of St<br />

Albans for a park and ride building<br />

but successive councils have<br />

hurried to tear down the old<br />

housing and put in new, preventing<br />

the Northern Motorway<br />

connecting directly with town.<br />

It would now cost millions just<br />

to buy up the new properties for<br />

the old route. The new route was<br />

probably suggested by a kindergarten.<br />

Now, traffic coming off<br />

the motorway will pile on to<br />

Cranford St and all the ratruns<br />

are being blocked so that<br />

I reckon the journey along<br />

Cranford St to Bealey Ave will<br />

take 20 minutes-plus and be an<br />

utter nightmare.<br />

The third lane is needed for<br />

cyclists, especially as there will<br />

be so many more of them now so<br />

much taxpayer money is being<br />

spent clogging up the roads<br />

around town.<br />

Three cheers to John Button<br />

and Murray Turley on their<br />

stand against the Grassmere St<br />

cycle path – there was<br />

no consultation.<br />

People of Ngaio Marsh<br />

Retirement Village found out by<br />

accident that the path was going<br />

in, making the road dangerous<br />

and killing off businesses in<br />

Rutland St and at the Sawyers<br />

Arms and Main North Rds<br />

corner.<br />

On a brighter note, I<br />

congratulate the city council<br />

on the much needed bypass<br />

behind the airport just as<br />

the Government decides we<br />

need one at Johns Rd, which<br />

is causing traffic problems for<br />

Wairakei Rd businesses.<br />

Readers respond to a<br />

story about the Papanui-<br />

Innes Community Board’s<br />

objection to a third lane on<br />

the Northern Motorway<br />

Jonathan Holtslag – If<br />

people could simply learn how<br />

to drive properly on a motorway<br />

that would be a huge help. Speed<br />

up to 100km/h on the on-ramp,<br />

indicate your intended lane<br />

change, stay in the left lane<br />

unless passing. These are all<br />

simple things that would make<br />

our lives a lot easier.<br />

Dave Moore – Stupid idea.<br />

Rail is the answer.<br />

Brodie Champain Archer<br />

– We need a bridge midway<br />

between the gorge and the main<br />

Waimakariri River Bridge.<br />

Feed the traffic through to West<br />

Melton, Rolleston and to the<br />

Southern Motorway extensions.<br />

It would totally change the<br />

flow of traffic, allow a quick<br />

route south, make North<br />

Canterbury more accessible and<br />

allow more people to work in the<br />

industrial hubs in the industrial<br />

zone.<br />

Trevor Taylor – Why is it<br />

the decision of a city council<br />

community board? It’s a road<br />

that’s looked after by the New<br />

Zealand Transport Agency.<br />

And why should Christchurch<br />

ratepayers pay to upgrade a road<br />

NOR’WEST NEWS<br />

so Waimakariri ratepayers can<br />

get to work faster?<br />

Rich Brown – Another<br />

bridge by the airport would be<br />

better and more cost effective in<br />

the long run.<br />

Jeff Bell – Control flow. Cut<br />

the northbound bridge to one<br />

lane during peak hour in the<br />

morning and feed traffic down<br />

that over the river.<br />

Helen Milligan – Think<br />

ahead. Trams are the way to go.<br />

Straight down the middle all the<br />

way from north to the city.<br />

Parks and rides at different<br />

stops.<br />

Brendon Liddicoat –<br />

Connect Pound Rd from Main<br />

South Rd to Oxford as a heavy<br />

transportation route bypass.<br />

Yes, another bridge over the<br />

Waimakariri River but common<br />

Rare Vincentian Cross medal<br />

for parish’s good Samaritan<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

BEING GIVEN the rare<br />

Vincentian Cross was an<br />

experience “quite out of this<br />

world” for Russell McKee.<br />

The 86-year-old was awarded<br />

the medal by the president of the<br />

Society of St Vincent de Paul,<br />

Renato Lima de Oliveria, for<br />

his 56 years of membership and<br />

service.<br />

Mr McKee’s voluntary work<br />

with St Vincent de Paul began in<br />

1961 when the parish priest at St<br />

Joseph’s church, Papanui, asked<br />

for his assistance in helping the<br />

poor and needy.<br />

“There were lots of local people<br />

who couldn’t manage, lots of<br />

poor people around. Usually the<br />

money was going on booze or<br />

gambling,” said Mr McKee<br />

The priest gave him a list of<br />

regular clients to visit.<br />

“We would take food, or<br />

clothing, or school uniforms,<br />

whatever the need was.”<br />

He still drives around each<br />

week to visit clients in need of<br />

help. “People are poor managers,”<br />

he said.<br />

Mr McKee said he had never<br />

expected such an award. He was<br />

motivated by a desire to help<br />

UNEXPECTED AWARD: Russell McKee, with his wife Janette,<br />

never thought he would be awarded a special medal for his 56<br />

years of service to the Society of St Vincent de Paul.<br />

those less fortunate than him.<br />

“Those who have been given<br />

many gifts have an obligation to<br />

share.”<br />

His wife of 60 years, Janette, is<br />

also a volunteer with St Vincent<br />

de Paul.<br />

The two met through their<br />

involvement with Catholic<br />

tennis and youth clubs before<br />

marrying at St Mary’s church<br />

in Manchester St on <strong>April</strong> 22,<br />

1957.<br />

With their diamond wedding<br />

anniversary approaching later<br />

this month, plans are afoot for a<br />

party to mark the occasion.<br />

“My dear wife is organising a<br />

social at the RSA in Papanui. It’s<br />

a busy time.”<br />

DONE DEAL: Murray Turley has retired his placard and called it<br />

a day on his protest after the roads works resumed.<br />

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />

Protester gives up<br />

•From page 1<br />

It was conducted on the corner<br />

of Proctor St and Main North<br />

Rd by city council staff who<br />

successfully managed to get the<br />

boat and trailer around the turn.<br />

Cr Davidson said after<br />

watching a video of the<br />

simulation, he was more than<br />

satisfied that the work should<br />

continue.<br />

However, Mr Turley said he is<br />

not happy with the outcome. He<br />

said he was under the impression<br />

the city council was going to use<br />

a Grassmere St resident’s truck<br />

and boat.<br />

Although he is disappointed,<br />

Mr Turley has decided to pack in<br />

his placard and said he had tried<br />

his best.<br />

“It’s a done deal – I’d be issued<br />

with a trespass noticed and I’m<br />

retired. I can’t afford any legal<br />

stuff,” he said.<br />

Mr Turley was angry because<br />

he said the residents had been lied<br />

to when told during consultation<br />

they would have unrestricted<br />

access in and out of Grassmere St.<br />

“We were promised<br />

unrestricted access in the<br />

consultation process and I don’t<br />

believe we’ve got that. We’ve got<br />

restricted access.”<br />

However, Cr Davidson said<br />

every day work was paused would<br />

cost the city council more money.<br />

Mr Turley said he doesn’t want<br />

to see the road have to be dug up<br />

and redone later, which would be<br />

expensive.<br />

Students design<br />

gadgets to help needy<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

SELWYN HOUSE pupils<br />

may have just invented some<br />

revolutionary tools to help<br />

paralysed people.<br />

Pupils from year 7 had Adrienne<br />

Coleman talk to them about<br />

some of the difficulties she faces<br />

because of tetraplegia.<br />

They were tasked with designing<br />

gadgets to help Mrs Coleman<br />

overcome the challenges and<br />

have developed prototypes to get<br />

feedback on.<br />

Although some girls made<br />

mistakes and had disasters, there<br />

were several inventions that particularly<br />

stood out, said teacher<br />

Simon Christie.<br />

INVENTORS:<br />

SELWYN<br />

HOUSE ​<br />

Mrs Coleman hadn’t used a<br />

knife since her accident 21 years<br />

ago until the first time she tested<br />

the prototype made by pupils<br />

Lucy Maynard, Emma Mason<br />

and Xanthe McElroy.<br />

“The knife is particularly<br />

remarkable,” Mr Christie<br />

said.<br />

The girls developed a design<br />

for the knife that has the handle<br />

at 90 deg to the blade and incorporates<br />

a fork on the end, so Mrs<br />

Coleman can cut her food, stab it<br />

and eat it.<br />

She has used the knife to cut<br />

and eat an apricot – something<br />

which was impossible for her to<br />

do before.<br />

St Margaret’s traffic issues<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

ST MARGARET’S College<br />

is rethinking its traffic safety<br />

measures after complaints about<br />

speed, congestion and parking<br />

issues.<br />

The college’s Papanui Rd entrance<br />

has been closed to parents<br />

dropping off students before and<br />

after school while it addresses<br />

the problems.<br />

Associate principal Chris Wyeth<br />

said the school is making the<br />

entrance pedestrian access only<br />

to minimise the amount of cars<br />

around pedestrians.<br />

Winchester, Andover and<br />

Shrewsbury Sts are all busy<br />

before and after school – parents<br />

are expected to park further<br />

from the gates.<br />

NOR’WEST NEWS<br />

“Your daughters are capable of<br />

walking along the street to meet<br />

you by parking in a safe zone,”<br />

Mrs Wyeth said.<br />

The school’s entrance on<br />

Andover St is for staff use only<br />

so it is not an alternative place to<br />

drop students off.<br />

The school’s priority is creating<br />

a safer environment for its<br />

students.

Edible garden winners<br />

HEALTHY EATING: Kidsfirst Northcote has won its ninth<br />

consecutive Heart Foundation gold award for teaching children<br />

healthy habits. ​<br />

Healthy food earns<br />

kindy another award<br />

FOR THE ninth year in a<br />

row Kidsfirst Northcote has<br />

been recognised with a Heart<br />

Foundation award.<br />

It won a Healthy Heart Gold<br />

Pā-Harakeke (flourishing)<br />

Award, which is awarded to<br />

kindergartens that teach healthy<br />

eating and physical activity.<br />

“We were the very first early<br />

learning centre to achieve the<br />

gold award and we are really<br />

proud of our continuing achievements,”<br />

Kidsfirst Northcote head<br />

teacher, Leigh Downie said.<br />

The kindergarten has consistently<br />

held gold award status<br />

since the awards started in 2010.<br />

Bek Parry, a nutrition advisor<br />

with the Heart Foundation<br />

in Canterbury, said she was<br />

impressed with the way Kidsfirst<br />

Northcote always shoot for gold.<br />

“They do really great work to<br />

promote positive messages at<br />

kindergarten around keeping<br />

hearts healthy,” she said.<br />

Kidsfirst Ilam has also been<br />

working with the Heart Foundation<br />

and in2hula to trial the<br />

Hoop with Heart programme.<br />

Children hula hooped to<br />

music, participated in games and<br />

used the hoops to act out a story.<br />

After its success the Hoop with<br />

Heart team rolled out the programme<br />

in other early learning<br />

centres around the city last week.<br />

THE FIFTH annual Papanui-<br />

Innes Edible Garden Awards<br />

were held on Thursday.<br />

The award ceremony<br />

attracted more than 50<br />

guests as well as elected<br />

members from the Papanui-<br />

Innes Community Board<br />

and members of the<br />

Society.<br />

This year, 48 entries were<br />

received in the categories of<br />

residential house, residential<br />

unit, schools and early learning<br />

centres and community<br />

gardens – an increase from last<br />

year’s total of 35.<br />

“It was extremely pleasing<br />

this year to see the large<br />

number of first time entrants,<br />

and those who have previously<br />

entered, entering again and<br />

remaining committed to their<br />

gardens,” said community<br />

board chairwoman Ali Jones,<br />

The awards are open to any<br />

residents who live within the<br />

Papanui or Innes wards, and<br />

it is hoped that in time the<br />

awards will be held across the<br />

city.<br />

Special nods were also given<br />

to a first-time entrant, best<br />

tomatoes, best yield<br />

and commitment to<br />

sustainability.<br />

St Andrew’s teen powers<br />

to rowing world record<br />

SOLID EFFORT: Jade Feneon (left), Tessa McCann, Luka<br />

Simmers, Kate Edwards and Kyla Otway capped off a fantastic<br />

season with fifth place at the national secondary school<br />

competition.<br />

Rangi tennis team shows<br />

potential in Auckland<br />

RANGI RURU’S senior tennis<br />

team has capped off a fantastic<br />

season with fifth place at the<br />

national secondary school<br />

competition in Auckland.<br />

The team which won the<br />

Christchurch girls’ qualifying<br />

tournament and came second<br />

at the South Island secondary<br />

school tournament fought hard<br />

to achieve the result.<br />

Rangi Ruru tennis convenor<br />

Anne Bissland said the school<br />

has not had a tennis team at the<br />

national competition since 2015<br />

so it was satisfying after a busy<br />

season.<br />

“The team spirit and hard<br />

work paid off and the girls<br />

only narrowly missed out<br />

on making the top four after<br />

some close games earlier in the<br />

competition,” she said.<br />

“This is a young team with<br />

a lot of potential and we look<br />

forward to watching their<br />

progress over the next few<br />

years.”<br />

RECORD HOLDER: St Andrew’s student Seb Caulder can<br />

boast that he has a world record in rowing at the age of 15.<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

ST ANDREW’S student Seb<br />

Caulder can boast that he has a<br />

world record in rowing at the age<br />

of 15.<br />

He was being tested on his<br />

speed and strength during a<br />

training session prior to the<br />

Maadi Cup and managed to row<br />

2000m in 6min 25sec, breaking<br />

the record of 6min 28sec.<br />

“I was in shock really. I never<br />

thought I would ever beat a<br />

world record,” he said.<br />

Caulder, who lives in Prebbleton,<br />

said the previous record was<br />

held by a United Kingdom rower,<br />

and he knows there will be some<br />

others gunning to take his time<br />

down.<br />

“I’m sure there will be some<br />

out there looking to beat that<br />

time,” he said.<br />

He was part of the school’s<br />

contingent of rowers who competed<br />

at the recent Maadi Cup<br />

regatta.<br />

He came second in the<br />

under-16 eight and third in under-15<br />

four.<br />

Concept 2, a company which<br />

manufactures the rowing machines<br />

he set the record on, sent<br />

Caulder a certificate to celebrate<br />

his achievement as well as a<br />

drink bottle and towel.<br />

Now, with the rowing season<br />

over, Caulder will turn his attention<br />

to the upcoming rugby<br />

season – he plays prop in the<br />

under-16 school team.<br />

He said it could be difficult to<br />

choose which sport he will pursue<br />

in the future as he loves both.<br />

“It is pretty tough choosing<br />

between rugby and rowing. They<br />

are pretty even,” he said.<br />

“Rowing is a lot harder fitnesswise<br />

and you have to get up<br />

earlier, but I enjoy it.”

Graham chases triathlon dream<br />

DOMINANT: Ari Graham finished more than a minute clear of<br />

the field at the Sea2Sky event.<br />

PHOTO: SEA2SKY CHALLENGE<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

A SUCCESSFUL background in<br />

middle distance running looks<br />

to have set former St Andrew’s<br />

College triathlete Ari Graham<br />

on a path to glory.<br />

Graham, 18, won the recent<br />

Sea2Sky Challenge in Sumner,<br />

the latest of many achievements.<br />

She competed in last year’s<br />

national track and field championships<br />

in Dunedin, winning<br />

both the under-18 800m and<br />

1500m titles. She is also a champion<br />

cross-country runner and<br />

has previously represented New<br />

Zealand at secondary school<br />

level.<br />

After trying her hand at a<br />

couple of school triathlons, she<br />

made the bold move to turn her<br />

full attention to triathlon and it’s<br />

now paying dividends.<br />

Graham has taken a gap year<br />

following her final year at St Andrew’s<br />

and is currently working<br />

part-time, and training full-time<br />

with the Canterbury Triathlon<br />

Academy.<br />

Over the summer, she competed<br />

in the National Junior<br />

Series, which is contested<br />

between the top under-19s in<br />

the country over five events.<br />

Graham not only won the series,<br />

she took out all five events.<br />

“I was really shocked with<br />

how well it went in my first<br />

year of triathlon. Every time I<br />

competed I wasn’t really expecting<br />

to win. I was just excited to<br />

compete and learn from racing,”<br />

said Graham.<br />

Graham has always been a<br />

strong swimmer and runner.<br />

She has been hard at work on<br />

her cycling with coach Axel<br />

Reiser to develop her technique<br />

and bunch-riding tactics this<br />

year.<br />

The weeks are busy with four<br />

pool, three run and three cycle<br />

sessions. To keep it competitive,<br />

she spends most of her time<br />

training with a lot of the top<br />

boys at the academy.<br />

“It’s about putting her into an<br />

environment where she’s being<br />

pushed,” said Reiser.<br />

He believes that Graham<br />

shows all the signs for them to<br />

be hopeful about her development.<br />

However, like all young<br />

athletes, there are a lot of factors<br />

in the future which will determine<br />

what she could go on to<br />

SPORTS<br />

achieve.<br />

“If you look at her times and<br />

compare that to previous Olympic<br />

champions, then she is now<br />

faster than them at this stage,”<br />

said Reiser.<br />

Graham currently competes<br />

over the sprint distance, which<br />

consists of a 750m swim, 20km<br />

bike and 5km run, half the<br />

length of the sport’s Olympic<br />

distance. Since dedicating<br />

her time to triathlon, she has<br />

had the opportunity to work<br />

alongside New Zealand’s top<br />

female triathlete Andrea Hewitt.<br />

They swim together under the<br />

guidance of Roly Crichton,<br />

who trains New Zealand’s most<br />

successful Paralympian Sophie<br />

Pascoe.<br />

“I used to train with Roly at<br />

QE II when I was younger. I’ve<br />

always kept in touch with him<br />

and when I finished school,<br />

I was able to train with him<br />

again,” said Graham.<br />

She’s planning a month-long<br />

campaign in Europe later this<br />

year, which she hopes to finish<br />

by representing New Zealand<br />

in the junior category at the<br />

ITU Triathlon grand final<br />

in September in Rotterdam,<br />

Netherlands.<br />

CHAT WITH MATT<br />

Despite the rain, my wife Viki and<br />

I managed to complete the North<br />

Canterbury Relay for Life, walking<br />

through the night to raise money for<br />

the Cancer Society. With my fatherin-law,<br />

Viki’s dad, being recently<br />

diagnosed with terminal bowel cancer,<br />

we wanted to support the great work<br />

the Cancer Society undertakes for<br />

patients and their families.<br />

Northwood Breakfast Club members<br />

enjoyed a lively debate with Finance<br />

Minister Steven Joyce ahead of Budget<br />

17. Bringing relevant ministers to the<br />

electorate is part of my commitment to<br />

ensure residents have opportunities to<br />

feed their views to Parliament. Topics<br />

raised included Superannuation, the<br />

Budget and New Zealand’s employment<br />

rate, now ranking second highest<br />

among OECD countries, with 66.7<br />

percent of people over the age of 15 in<br />

employment.<br />

Last year’s Keeping Connected<br />

Evening Meetings were a great way<br />

to engage with those of you who find<br />

it difficult to meet with me during<br />

business hours. With a young family,<br />

I know life can get busy with work<br />

and family commitments. This year,<br />

I am holding these meetings in May<br />

throughout the electorate for us to<br />

have a conversation about the issues<br />

that are important to you. I would love<br />

to meet with you at the Belfast Rugby<br />

Football Club on Thursday 18 May from<br />

7.30pm to 8.30pm. There’s no need<br />

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or<br />

could it be mainly my muscles?<br />

The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham sees clients with<br />

a range of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and<br />

senior clients visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.<br />

PhysiotheraPist ietje van<br />

stolk suggests that a major part of the<br />

pain could be due to muscle pain rather<br />

than simply arthritis. “even if an x-ray<br />

shows arthritis, the reason for the pain<br />

may be the muscles around the joint,”<br />

she explains. The images show how<br />

a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back<br />

muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain<br />

are the red areas in the drawings), a knot<br />

in a muscle on the back of the shoulder<br />

blade can give a deep pain in the front<br />

of the shoulder and a muscle knot all the<br />

way near the groin can give an ache in<br />

the knee (especially at night in bed).<br />

ietje recalls one case where an 89<br />

year old client with severe arthritis who<br />

walked with a stick, told her, “i will<br />

end up in a wheelchair, i cannot put<br />

any weight through my right leg due to<br />

pain in my hip and buttock”. “Within<br />

4 treatments, she was walking with<br />

her stick but without the severe pain,”<br />

says ietje. “The arthritis was one of the<br />

factors that made her muscles spasm but<br />

the other was that older people move<br />

less and the flexed position the hip is<br />

in when we sit is particularly bad for<br />

the hip.” ietje is happy with the fact that<br />

although the client was 89 and could<br />

have been “given up on” or told to live<br />

with the pain, she made a difference to<br />

her health and wellbeing.<br />

The same lack of movement can<br />

be the reason for your knee pain or<br />

your shoulder pain and the same few<br />

treatments could make a huge difference<br />

for you.<br />

at Physical sense, hands-on<br />

techniques (massage and triggerpoint<br />

deactivation techniques) are used<br />

to release the muscles. The client<br />

also gets a home exercise program<br />

designed to mobilize and stretch the<br />

joint, strengthen the important core<br />

muscles and increase general strength<br />

and balance. They teach a movement<br />

sequence that stretches the joint in all<br />

directions whilst the client is able to lie<br />

safely on their bed, perfect for older or<br />

SHOULDER<br />

PAIN<br />

KNEE PAIN<br />

(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)<br />

less mobile clients.<br />

in many cases having the muscles<br />

released and being taught how to<br />

maintain it, is enough to stay on top of<br />

the problem. if severe arthritis is the<br />

underlying cause, some maintenance<br />

therapy may be necessary, but that is<br />

often more affordable and, for older<br />

patients, better tolerated than surgery. in<br />

very few treatments the client will know<br />
