Council, Living Earth hit with fines
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
THE CITY council and the
Living Earth compost plant in
Bromley have objected to two
fines dished out to them by
Environment Canterbury.
The $1000 fines, handed to
city council and Living Earth,
were a result of odour breaching
consents, originating from the
compost plant.
They were each fined for an
“offensive odour outside the
boundary of the Living Earth
facility”. The alleged breach took
place on June 14.
It is the first time the city
council had been fined for
breaching an odour consent, a
city council spokeswoman said.
ECan’s regional leader of
investigations and incidents
Valyn Barrett said there have
been “57 complaints (from the
public) since May 1”, but of
those complaints, just two were
substantiated.
Mr Barrett said ECan had
received correspondence from
both the city council and Living
Earth asking for a hearing in
court.
A city council spokeswoman
confirmed it is appealing ECan’s
infringement fine, but could not
give any further details.
A Living Earth spokeswoman
also confirmed they had made
“a formal objection” to the fine,
which she said was the “first and
only” fine it has received.
“We can’t really get into it
because it’s before the courts .
. . we also can’t talk about the
grounds for our appeal because
it’s before the courts,” she said.
An ECan spokeswoman said
she also couldn’t comment on
the hearings as they were before
the courts.
Living Earth is operated on
behalf of the city council, and
owned by Waste Management
New Zealand.
Last August, Pegasus Post
reported that an electronic nose
was bought by the city council,
costing about $250,000.
It was purchased to detect
out smells exceeding the limit
of the consent coming from the
compost plant.
Mr Barrett said the closure of
Bromley School on June 9 and
10 due to an unknown gassy
smell was not linked to the two
infringement fines.

Salvation Army programme
helps hundreds into jobs
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
A WORK programme run by
The Salvation Army in Aranui
finished up last month, getting
more than 420 people into work
in the rebuild over a period of
four years.
The ‘U Build 4 the
Rebuild’ programme was
established as an earthquake
recovery project by The
Salvation Army in April
2012 and ran its first civil
construction course with just
five people in
June that year.
Project
manager for
the programme
Robyn
Laurenson
(right) said the
project was funded by donations
from the public after the
February 22 earthquake.
“We’re based out of Aranui.
We did that on purpose, because
the east was hit very badly from
the earthquakes. Some people
needed food parcels, blankets,
all sorts of things, so it was a
REBUILD HELP: The Salvation Army’s ‘U Build 4 the Rebuild’
programme recently finished after getting more than 420
people into work.
way to give back.
“The funding for the project
was all through donations
to The Salvation Army postearthquake
from New Zealand
and overseas donors . . . when
we talked to SCIRT, they were
talking about a shortfall of
about 1500 rebuild workers,” she
said.
Ms Laurenson said
“pressure cooker” type
programmes was the best way
to reflect the industry.
“The six-week courses started
at 7am every morning because
we wanted to reflect what really
happened in the industry . . . we
had people who had lost their
jobs through the earthquake.
We up-skilled them in a pressure
cooker type six week course
so they could get into these
types of jobs,” she said.
Last month, the funding
stream ended for the ‘U Build 4
the Rebuild’ programme.
But The Salvation Army’s
youth and education officer
Bruce Tremain said although it is
a shame the programme ended,
it lends an opportunity for a new
programme to replace it.
“Unfortunately the funding
stream was cut. It was always a
limited source and just happened
that it finished in June,” he said.
Funding has now been
moved to a driver mentoring
programme, trying to give
people confidence to go for their
full licence.
In Brief
ROTHESAY RD LIGHTS
Rothesay Rd in Parklands is
not scheduled to undergo street
lighting upgrades at this time.
However, the city council still
intends to replace the fluorescent
lights. They were installed
between the 1960s and the 1980s,
and have a low efficiency rating.
RICHMOND ROAD REPAIR
North Avon Rd has been closed
between North Parade and
Flesher Ave for wastewater
works. The detour will be North
Parade, Medway St to River Rd.
The road closure is scheduled to
be lifted in October. Meanwhile,
the Stapletons Rd and Dudley
St intersection will be closed for
about three months. Stapletons Rd
is one-way southbound between
Averill St and Randall St.
KNITTING FOR ALL
Children and the elderly united
for a good yarn last week at The
Palms shopping centre. Knitting
workshops were held, and the
centre donated $1000 to the Kiwi
Family Trust to help enhance
their support services for the
community. Children were taught
the basics of knitting by expert
knitters, and each participant
was given a free starter pack. The
pack came complete with a ball of
wool, knitting needles and an easy
to follow pattern.

Tyra Adlam aka Maleficent
Playing the villain for charity
Tyra Adlam has a second life as one Disney’s most-loved villains, Maleficent. Georgia
O’Connor-Harding spoke to her about the reaction she gets when undertaking charity
work dressed as the “mistress of all evil”
Why did you decide to dress up
as Maleficent?
A lot of it had to do with being
drawn to gothic characters.
Characters that are crazy pale,
with colourful eyes decked out
in black. Maleficent is very
commanding and powerful. I
have so much more confidence
in my real life now after dressing
as this character.
What was it like when
you made your first public
appearance as Maleficent?
It was Halloween and I ended
up going on a bus trip and having
a great time. I didn’t realise
New Zealand had these Armageddon
expos. When I went to
my first expo I had no idea what
to expect. I spent the first hour
posing for photos. The reaction
was staggering. My character
encourages strength and power.
Meeting like-minded people in
the community was great, too. I
got into charity events through
that. The goal now, with my
friend Darth Vader, is to do as
much good as possible. Our
characters both know what it’s
like to suffer. We both want to
give back to people who need
help – there is nothing in this
world like it.
What events do you attend as
Maleficent?
I go to Armageddon, and do
charity and not-for-profit work
with the Christchurch Faerie
Circle.
What do you do as a day job?
I have worked at the Christchurch
Horror Maze over the
summer as a scare actress.
Because of health issues I’ve got,
I can’t really do a great deal.
So it hasn’t been an easy
journey?
No. Ever since I was diagnosed
with a chronic illness it has
been ongoing. Finding the right
balance is so important because
you can do too much. Some
days are really good but you can
push yourself a little too much
and your body can protest the
next day. One of the reasons I
love being Maleficent is because
it is not about me. When I do a
charity event as Maleficent it is
not about me and my issues, it
is entirely about someone else.
It is really nice focusing yourself
WORKING FOR CHARITY: Tyra with Flat Man (middle) and the
Christchurch Faerie Circle at an Imagination Station charity
event.
PHOTO: ANGELA JONES
on people in need, rather than
focusing on yourself. It is a way
for me to get out of my own head
and realise other people have
stuff going on as well.
You have a great outlook.
You kind of have to. You get to
a point where you can either sit
there and be miserable about the
things you can’t change, or you
can invest your energy into the
good stuff.
Tell me about your family?
I have a sister who is incredibly
supportive. My parents live
in Te Puki, near Tauranga. It
is the Kiwifruit capital of New
Zealand. My family think it is
great I dress up. There is this idea
that it is weird and there can be
judgment, but my family think
it is great. They get right behind
it and support it. My sister is an
artist. She is a painter that just
got into sculpting and is very
creative. My grand-father, who
passed away in 1997, was
into pottery so there has always
been an artistic influence in my
family.
Have you ever considered
going into acting?
I have toyed with the idea. But
with my chronic illness, there
is no telling how I will be on
any one day. Charity events do
not happen too often and they
are only for a few hours. Even
if I don’t feel great, there is the
reward of helping others and I
can push myself through. But it
is a matter of listening to what
the body is saying.
And how old are you?
I am 36. All my friends complain
they are getting older, but I
am getting closer to 40 and love
it. It is actually really exciting. In
my 20s, I was like most people.
I was relatively self-absorbed,
self-focused and a bit dramatic.
Obviously living though the
earthquakes was a pretty traumatic
experience. That was when
MAGIC: Tyra dresses as the Disney character Maleficent when
she does charity work.
PHOTO: KIRSTY LEE
I realised I needed help. I had
extensive therapy. I needed to
address over-coming my grief.
I knew people who died in the
2011 earthquake. But I have now
put that trauma behind me. The
main thing is to keep moving
forward.
How do children react when
they see you?
It does vary. I have done some
faerie events where children
come rushing up to me and
throw their arms around me.
On the flip-side, some find my
whole look intimidating. I have
been known to have done charity
events where children look at me
and burst into tears.
When you were younger did
you enjoy fairy tales?
I was always drawn to the
dark characters. When I was
four-years-old I remember
going into kindergarten and the
teacher asked what we want to
be when we grew up. I wanted
to be Lily Munster because she
was a vampire. When I started
watching Disney movies I
found the villains interesting.
Old-school princesses were one
dimensional. Nowadays you
have movies like Frozen where
the princesses have their own
defined personalities. But back
in the earlier days, their entire
existence was having a man save
them and there was nothing
exciting about that.
Thanks Canterbury
for your continued support

Community garden theft
Fashion
The looting of
a Churchill Park
garden shed went
unreported
to police
Gardening
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
A RICHMOND community
garden was “broken into
and smashed” recently – but
volunteers decided not to pass
the case on to police.
Thieves allegedly took gardening
equipment and a lawn mower
when they broke into the Churchill
Park Community Garden shed
on Guild St late last month. The
Motoring
garden is run by volunteers.
The garden’s co-ordinator
Mary Tingey said after the incident
she decided not to involve
the police.
“They have better things to do
than worry about a little community
garden being broken
into like ours . . . I think they

have higher priorities to be honest,”
she said.
A police spokeswoman said
to help protect yourself and
others, crime should always be
reported.
“All members of the public are
encouraged to report crime or
suspicious behaviour to police as
soon as possible,” she said.
The tools at the garden were
bought through funding grants.
All end products – such as silverbeet,
cabbage and peas – from the
garden are given to a food bank at
Delta Community House.
The community garden was
started by the Richmond Community
Action Network and
Delta Community House after
the February 22, 2011, earthquake.
It is run by “four or five”
volunteers who tend to their
patch every Friday.
Ms Tingey said it is a wellused
park, and especially popular
with children.
“The park itself is a beautiful
spot with plenty of birds for company.
It is well-used as a place to
bring children and dogs, as well
as a peaceful place to rest. Children
have built huts,” she said.
Ms Tingey said almost everything
in the garden had been
donated or supplied by local
businesses.
“The park and garden is a
community effort. The shed was
donated by CanCERN [Canterbury
Communities’ Earthquake
Recovery Network] and it was
transported to the site by the Student
Volunteer Army,” she said.
“The land is owned by Anglican
Living, who strongly support
the garden. Worthington
Contracting have supported the
garden by supplying water and
fixing up hoses when things
go wrong. They also mow the
lawns . . . they are very good
neighbours.”
Celebrating
work in the
community
MORE THAN 20 businesses
from the Bromley and Linwood
areas got involved in the annual
It’s Great to Live Here event held
yesterday.
The event was a partnership
between local community groups,
businesses and the city council.
It brought community groups
and organisations together to
showcase the work they do in the
Linwood, Phillipstown, Bromley
and Woolston areas.
Phillipstown Community Hub
co-ordinator Viviana Zanetti said
it was great to be invited.
She said it was a perfect
opportunity to let the community
know what their organisation was
currently doing and their plans
for the future.
Representatives from the
Ministry of Education and
Ministry of Social Development
attended the event.
Linwood College staff also
spoke with the community about
the school’s rebuild, and gathered
residents’ deedback.
New Brighton veteran marks 100 years
Money
CHEERS:
Allan Adam
had a quiet
couple of
beers at the
New Brighton
Club with his
friends to
celebrate his
birthday.
• By Caitlin Miles
A CENTURY of memories came
flooding back to New Brighton
Working Men’s Club and war
veteran Allan Adams when he
celebrated his 100th birthday
yesterday.
Mr Adams has also been a
member of the Sumner RSA for 40
years. He still goes for a beer with
friends when he can.
Mr Adams is a resident in the
Brookhaven Retirement Village in
Woolston and Christchurch has
always been home.
He was born in Opawa in 1916
and attended primary school
in Opawa before heading to
Christchurch West High School.
He said he was a “good kid” and
only got the strap once. Which he
“didn’t deserve”.
“A prefect walked past the door
and I waved at him, the teacher
saw me and I got the strap. I didn’t
deserve that,” he said.
After leaving high school Mr
Adams worked with his father for
several weeks before getting two
job offers on the same day.
“I had wanted to work in radio
and I got offered a job but I turned it
down for a job at the Tai Tapu Dairy
Company. It was the height of the
depression and I wanted a job that
was going to be stable,” he said.
He worked for the dairy company
for 43 years.
He met his wife June in 1943
when he 26.
“I was in Wellington on holiday
and I was down at the wharf when
I saw her, we went on a couple of
dances and she worked as an usher
at the movie theatre, I went to the
pictures quite a lot,” he said.
During t World War 2 Mr
Adams was a radar technician
in the New Zealand Air Force. It
wasn’t until after basic training
when he was on standby that he
realised he was colour-blind.
“They kicked me out after that,”
he said.
There is no secret to longevity for
Mr Adams. He said hitting the century
mark is not that important,
all birthdays get the same after a
while.
“My wife always said you’re such
an old bugger you’ll make 100.
“And now I have,” Mr Adams
said.

the hall was blessed by

Monday when the whole
school had its first look at
the hall. The pupils sang
and learnt why the hall
was blessed. The hall was
funded by Rata Foundation

Youth MP for
Christchurch East
and Aranui High
Tuesday August 2 2016
Fortunate to have democracy SHOWBIZ Christchurch held
its popular Way Off Broadway
ews
School student
Beth Walters
talks about
attending Youth
Parliament and representing
the eastern suburbs
Parliament,
ashion
a word which until
recently used to have a series of
negative connotations because
I would only ever see it through
the eyes of the media. However,
maybe the word Parliament is
viewed negatively because we
don’t value and understand fully
our democracy?
I know personally it was only
until recently from participating
in Youth Parliament, did I realise
Gardening
how fortunate we are to live a
democratic society.
Youth Parliament was an
experience that was eye opening,
not only to the way our democracy
works but also to how every
individual has backgrounds and
passions that shape their viewpoints
and the way they conduct
themselves, because of the demo-
otoring
cratic society we live I realised
how privileged we are to be able
to express these opinions.
Over the space of two days, 121
youth MPs from across Aotearoa
represented and advocated for the
asty Bites
young people from their respective
electorates. I represented Christchurch
East. As young people we
learnt a lot and experienced the
majority of what a MP would.
Youth parliamentarians this
year debated a mock bill. Its
purpose was to ensure that New
Zealand’s web pages and apps are
accessible to people with disabilities.
Some would argue, was this
the most relevant issue that affects
young people to be debating?
However, I feel the perspectives
that were raised provided a
youthful insight into an important
issue that the Government
will one day have to pass a bill on.
It was the mock bill that gave me
insight into how vital it is in our
democratic society that different
opinions and perspectives are
presented when debating issues
that affect everyone.
The respect, the courage and
the mana that was shown by the
rangatahi that represented each
electorate and community over
the two days at Parliament, was
a true testament to the calibre
of young people we have in
Aotearoa.
But the question can be asked
in the Christchurch East electorate,
how can we better encourage
involvement and engagement in
the democratic process? In the
2014 election, a total of 2540 of
the 4265 people aged between
18 and 24 enrolled to vote in
the Christchurch East electorate
voted. However, since being in
Parliament I’ve begun to ask,
what about the other 40 per cent
who chose not to vote?
I’ve recently turned 18 and in
this year’s local council elections
and also in next year’s general
election I am legally able to vote
and I will, because I feel educated
around the different parties and
policies but I only feel educated
because of my experiences at
Youth Parliament, prior to that I
had no idea.
If that is the case, then there
will be many young people like I
who feel uneducated around the
democratic process. As a community
how can we better educate
each other on the importance of
voting, that it is a right that we
should be grateful to have and
how can we better show not only
young people but also adults
the importance and value that a
democratic society presents?

HE’S BACK! Scotty Bamford
returns to the screen tomorrow
night on CTV, in an all new
season of Rural New Zealand.
Mr Bamford will return to the
screen for the first time in nearly
12 months after a near-fatal truck
crash over the Christmas period
last year.
The Rural New Zealand team
have been hard at work following
the end of season two, earlier
this year with filming for season
three beginning in July.
“We’ve had some absolutely
cracking days filming over the
winter, the weather has really
played ball. We’ve been travelling
far and wide, leaving our gummy
marks right across Canterbury,”
said Mr Bamford.
Mr Bamford is excited to show
off what he and the team have
been working on when episode
one airs this week.
“We catch up with two girls
that are riding horse back,
circumnavigating New Zealand.
We met them in Kaikoura,
3000km into their journey,” he
said.
This week’s episode sees Mr
Bamford meet Carrfields founding
director Greg Carr.
“Over the next 16 weeks
we’ll be learning more about
the Carr family and how the
Ashburton-based agricultural
business has grown into a diverse
international operation,” he said.
Mr Bamford said that one of his
highlights this season was a recent
trip to Omarama, to meet the
2015 South Island Farmer of the
Year co-winner Richard Subtil.
Later in the season Mr Subtil
will explain the effort that
went into recognition in the
competition and his plans to
future-proof the family farm for
generations to come.
Episode one will air at 8pm
tomorrow on CTV, Freeview
channel 40.

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

vulnerable.

To enSure the quality of your air, contact
the experts. Smooth-Air Products can calculate
the required air exchange for your building
requirement. Smooth-Air offers a wide range of
ventilation equipment, from air vents to ducting
for fans, for both the commercial and domestic
markets. They have an extensive range of fans
and ventilation components in-store but they
can also provide innovative solutions tailored to
differing requirements.
VenTILATIon
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.

work together for maximum efficiency and

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.

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

in many cases having the muscles

underlying cause, some maintenance

patients, better tolerated than surgery. in
