EVENT: The city council’s delay in finding a contractor for the pier repairs has seen support to delay them further until after summer so spectators can watch 

the New Zealand Surf Life Saving Championships in March from the pier. 

Call to delay repairs till 

after big surf carnival 

Nikki Griffin 

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce 

CALLS ARE being made to 

delay the start of repairs to the 

pier until after a major surf life 

saving carnival in March. 

Repairs were due to begin this 

month. But the city council has 

not appointed a contractor and it 

is likely work will not begin until 

late summer. 

Now key people in the community 

are calling for the start 

of the work to be postponed 

until after the New Zealand Surf 

Life Saving Championships on 

March 17 to 19 at New Brighton. 

In April, the Pegasus Post 

reported that up to $11 million of 

repairs were needed to strengthen 

the columns after the damage 

it sustained in the Valentine’s 

Day earthquake. 

City councillor David East said 

he wanted work to begin quickly 

on the proviso that events could 

still occur. If not, he wanted it 

delayed until after the championships. 

Bin Inn owner Nikki Griffin 

said she agreed with Cr East that 

it made more sense to wait until 

after this summer. 

“It’s not rocket science to wait 

until after summer. The event 

was great last time, people could 

watch on top of the pier and get a 

better view,” she said. 

New Brighton Surf Life Saving 

vice-president Matt Nash said 

the event brought in thousands 

of spectators and a cash injection 

to the suburb. 

Leaving the pier open would 

help the event. 

“Going back 15 or so years 

when they were last held here, 

the pier was a real point of 

difference from others [competitions],” 

he said. 

City council general manager 

for city services David Adamson 

said it will try to work where it 

could for event access, but until a 

contractor was selected it would 

not know the repair methodology. 

The New Brighton Christchurch 

Guy Fawkes Fireworks 

Spectacular was in doubt when 

the repairs were announced 

earlier this year, but in June, 

the city council said they would 

still go ahead and it would work 

around it. 

Ms Griffin said the closure of 

the pier may not affect business, 

because people may still visit to 

check out the repairs. 

Strategic Urban Rejuvenation 

Force spokeswoman Lesley Fulton 

said from the beginning she 

wanted the repairs to begin after 

summer and supported waiting 

until after the event.

you rather the repairs get 

under way as soon as 

possible, or be held off until 

after the New Zealand Surf 

Life Saving Championships 

in March? Share your

DESK News..........................3, 5, 6, 7 

NO ONE disputes that repairs 

to the New Brighton Pier need to 

happen, but the timing behind 

them seems a bit off. Some want 

the repairs to begin after summer, 

especially with the New Zealand 

Surf Life Saving Championships 

in March. It has apparently been a 

good 15 years since the nationals 

were last at New Brighton and the 

best vantage point is apparently 

the pier – makes sense. But until 

the city council actually gets a 

contractor, they will not know if 

the pier will be open especially for 

this event. Seems reasonable to me 

that the city council should try to 

work with the community to make 

this happen.

School buildings face demolition 


LOST BATTLE: Resident Veronica Henry is disappointed 

Burwood School will be demolished at the end of the year. It 

has been vandalised and neglected since its closure in 2014.. 

THE SITE of the former 

Burwood School will be cleared 

by the end of the year. 

The Pegasus Post has learned 

that the Ministry of Education 

intends to “remove or demolish” 

all buildings on the site. 

It comes after Burwood 

resident Veronica Henry fought 

a decision made by the MoE at 

the end of last year, that stated 

it was looking to demolish the 

buildings. 

The school was closed at the 

end of 2014, and merged with 

Windsor School on Burwood 

Rd to make the now Waitakiri 

School. 

She has lived next door to 

the site for more than 50 years, 

and wanted to see the former 

school turned into a community 

facility, which she said had been 

lacking in the Burwood area 

ever since the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake. 

Mrs Henry said she is 

disappointed the Burwood 

community didn’t get a say in 

whether it was turned into a 

local facility. 

“Everyone was for it, everyone 

I spoke to. A friend of ours in 

Bassett St said he was happy to 

put flyers around to the neighbours 

asking if they were keen 

to get a centre started. 

“But I guess you’re dealing 

with the Government and 

things like that, so you don’t get 

anywhere fast. You can only but 

try,” she said. 

The MoE’s head of education 

infrastructure service Jerome 

Sheppard said this year the site 

has been used by Haeata Community 

Campus staff while the 

new super school is being built 

at Aranui High School, but 

after that there will be no use 

for it, and the buildings will be 

demolished. 

“After a school closes, we often 

keep the site and buildings to 

be used for other educational 

purposes. This year the site has 

been used by Haeata . . . [after 

that] there are no other schools 

in the Christchurch Schools 

Rebuild programme which are 

expected to need the site,” he 

said. 

Mr Sheppard said usable land 

is “relatively scarce” in the city 

and the MoE have a responsibility 

to make it available again if 

the site is no longer needed for 

education. 

It will offer the property to 

other government agencies, 

previous owners or iwi before 

the land can be sold on the open 

market. 

Council’s work 

recognised 

THE CITY council has been 

recognised for its work on the 

Aranui Community Centre. 

The city council’s project 

management was recognised at 

the recent New Zealand Project 

Management Awards for its work 

on the centre. 

It won three of the seven awards 

on offer, including the public 

sector of the year award for the 

rebuilt Aranui Community Centre, 

which was opened earlier this 

year. 

The centre was the end result of 

work between the city council, the 

Aranui Community Trust, 

the Christchurch Earthquake 

Appeals Trust and Lions International. 

City council’s junior project 

manager Selena Robertson won 

an award for the emerging project 

manager of the year for her work 

on the rebuild of the Wharenui 

Sports Centre. 

City council’s manager of capital 

delivery Darren Moses said the 

awards were great recognition of 

the work his team were doing to 

deliver the city with new community 

facilities in an efficient and 

cost-effective way. 

The city council team also won 

the project management office of 

the year award.

Wild weather havoc 

• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk 

Management Officer 

JUST WHEN we were getting 

used to warmer days and 

shorter nights on Wednesday we 

got reminded just how winter 

could have been with a polar 

blast sweeping through the city. 

While there was a bit of hail, 

a bit of wind and a lowering of 

temperature before 2pm it was 

from 4.35 pm on wards that 

everything went off for our fire 

crews. 

Between then and 2am the 

next morning we attended 37 

incidents caused by the weather. 

It wasn’t a great night to be 

a tree with 18 of these being 

uprooted right across the city, 

interrupting power and blocking 

roads. 

There were also garden sheds, 

trampolines, a car port, some 

roofs and even a campervan 

near Akaroa blown over or 

away. 

A wild night that included 

some impressive rain coming in 

sideways where I live. 

Hopefully, now we’ll cruise 

towards summer with no more 

winter blasts. 

In fact we’ll probably be 

moaning about nor’westers 

soon. 

Which means we need to be 

careful with anything, including 

barbecues, that might start fire. 

Friday a week ago saw fire 

in Bottle Lake Forest which is 

always a concern. 

Normally, we go to deliberately-lit 

fires started by idiots who 

seem to think it a good idea. 

However, this time a loader 

working at the landfill had a fuel 

hose burst and diesel poured 

over its electrics when then 

shorted out. 

The resulting fire was probably 

quite a shock to the driver. 

It was going well when St 

Albans crew arrived but was 

quickly extinguished.

Candidates don’t live in 

wards they want 

to represent 

• By Bridget Rutherford 

CITY COUNCIL hopefuls Jo 

Kane and Dean Lester are two 

of 14 across the city who do not 

live in the ward they want to 

represent. 

About a third of candidates 

standing for council seats do not 

live in the area they would represent 

if elected. 

There are 40 candidates standing 

for the city council across the 

16 wards. 

The Burwood, Cashmere, 

Fendalton, Innes, Riccarton and 

Linwood Wards are the only 

ones that are guaranteed to have 

a councillor representing them 

who lives there. 

There is no legal requirement 

for councillors to live in the ward 

they are representing, however 

most choose to do so. 

Both Ms Kane, who lives at 

Waikuku Beach, and Mr Lester, 

who lives just outside the boundary 

of the Coastal Ward, said 

there is a need for proper representation 

in it. 

In the 2013 elections, of the 54 

candidates standing for council 

seats, nine did not live in the 

ward they were running in. 

As part of the city council’s 

representation review, the current 

seven wards will increase 

to 16 after October’s local body 

elections. Each ward will have 

one councillor represent it. 

Elections 16 

Jo Kane: Lives in 

the Waimakariri 

district, running 

for Coastal 

“I could live on the 

moon and still see 

the totally inadequate and woeful 

basic level of rate-delivered 

services to the whole coastal 

area, including Parklands. I have 

skills and experience that will 

get this work done in an area 

that I used to live in, and my 

family live in. If elected, I will 

open an office so that ratepayers 

and residents can always come 

directly to me and I will reside 

in the area.” 

Dean Lester: 

Lives in Burwood, 

running for 

Coastal 

“I do my living in 

the Coastal Ward, 

enjoying Bottle Lake Forest, 

going to the beach and enjoying 

and supporting places like 

BearLion. I just happen to live 

on the side of Travis Wetland. 

The Coastal Ward needs to have 

a good advocate that is passionate 

about the key things that are 

part of that ward.” 

Stewart standing 

in two elections 


LONG-TIME eastern politician 

Linda Stewart may have a foot 

in three camps after the October 

local body elections. 

Ms Stewart is seeking a fourth 

term on a community board. 

She has had three terms on 

Burwood-Pegasus. She is now 

standing for the new Burwood- 

Coastal Ward. 

However, she is also 

standing for the Waimakariri 

District Council 

in the new Rangiora- 

Ashley Ward. 

If successful in both 

campaigns, she will need 

to attend three lots of 

meetings, and would receive an 

annual salary of about $64,000. 

Since the earthquakes, Ms 

Stewart (right) has relocated from 

her house in Parklands, and has 

been living in a home in Rangiora 

since the start of the year. 

She said she put her name forward 

for Rangiora-Ashley Ward 

in a spur-of-the-moment action, 

on the back of attending a local 

community board meeting. 

“After the meeting I got a ring 

from one of the councillors who 

said he’d really like me to stand. 

I said I couldn’t even think 

about it, but the next morning I 

woke up, said ‘stuff it’ and then 

went for it,” she said. 

Ms Stewart said she can handle 

the workload of both boards 

if elected. 

“I want to win both. Why 

would I go into it not wanting to 

win? I want to finish projects in 

Burwood, and I want closure,” 

she said. 

But community board 

chairwoman Andrea 

Cummings said she was 

disappointed the community 

had not been told 

she is running for two 

boards. 

“If she gets into Rangiora and 

Burwood, she won’t be very 

available for meetings down 

here,” she said. 

Wainoni Avonside Community 

Services Trust co-ordinator 

Betty Chapman said a lot of the 

trust members respect what Ms 

Stewart does for the community.

• By Scott Bamford 

ICELANDIC HORSES, said to 

have been brought to Iceland by 

the Vikings, are increasing in 

number around Canterbury. 

Inga Currey, owner and operator 

of Christchurch Icelandic 

Horse Treks, is using them in her 

business. There are other owners, 

and breeders, of icelandic horses 

around Christchurch, Rangiora, 

Oxford, Waikuku, Ashburton, 

Oamaru and Twizel. 

“The first sort of bigger breeder 

was in Oamaru, the stud was 

called Vindholar Southern Icelandics, 

they were the pioneers 

here. There is a breeder in Ashburton,” 

she said. 

She said three of her clients in 

Christchurch had bought icelandic 

horses, and two of them have 

bred their first foal. 

“For the last two years we have 

TREKKING. A group rides on Spencer Park Beach with Christchurch Icelandic Horse Treks. 

PHOTOS: CHRISTCHURCH ICELANDIC HORSE TREKS 

even had some horses in the 

Christchurch AMP show,” she 

said. 

Mrs Currey, originally from 

just south of Frankfurt, Germany, 

has lived in New Zealand 

since moving here with her Kiwi 

husband in 2000. She has ridden 

icelandic horses since she was 18. 

“They were brought into Iceland 

by the Vikings, over 1000 

years ago. They have been purebred 

there since then. No icelandic 

horse that leaves Iceland can 

ever go back and no other horses 

can be imported either,” she said. 

Her trekking business stems 

from her passion for the breed 

and being conveniently located 

near Spencer Park Beach. 

“I collected horses for the family, 

who then weren’t interested 

… I had the horses and I had 

the location. You couldn’t ride 

icelandic horses anywhere here 

yet, that’s why I had the idea.” 

Mrs Currey said one of her favourite 

traits of icelandic horses 

was “definitely the tölt.” 

“When people experience the 

tölt for the first time, their expressions 

and the things they say 

are lovely to see,” she said. 

The tölt is a unique gait allowing 

the horse to move in a 

similar fashion to walking, but at 

a running speed. This makes for 

a very smooth ride. 

Jennie Boerema, president 

of the Icelandic Horses New 

Zealand association, explained 

riding with a full glass of beer 

has been used to demonstrate 

how smooth the tölt can be. 

“[During] the beer tölt, we 

have a glass of beer in hand and 

we use a wooden plank to ride 

over so you can hear the hoof 

beats. You can just sit still and 

drink your beer while riding. We 

thought that was very conveni-

Currey’s trekking horses,

ent, especially in New Zealand 

where you love your beer,” she 

said. 

Mrs Boerema said icelandic 

horses were well suited to the 

terrain of the south. 

“If you look at the terrain, 

especially of the south, it is very 

easy for the icelandic horse to fit 

in. It’s similar to Iceland,” she 

said.

Disneyland

CELEBRATIONS: Eleven-year-old Jesse George thought he was 

having a regular check-up when his care worker Paul Graham 

came to his house on Wednesday afternoon. Mr Graham handed 

the Chisnallwood Intermediate student a letter and smiled as he 

said: “I’ve got some bad news for you.” Jesse looked confused, 

but his face lit up when he read the letter – he’s going to 

Disneyland. Jesse was born with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, 

a disorder that affects about one in 3500 boys. It means it is hard 

for him to carry out everyday activities as his muscles are slowly 

breaking down. Next month, he will be taken on the adventure

Contractor irks residents 


A FIVE-YEAR land lease 

extension for drainage and 

civil company, Worthington 

Contracting, has Richmond 

residents up in arms. 

The company was allowed to 

operate centrally from Guild St, 

Richmond, in the wake of the 

February 22, 2011, earthquake, 

through emergency legislation 

passed by the Government. 

The contractor moves soil 

and gravel regularly and, if it 

is not watered down properly, 

creates plumes of dust that affects 

neighbouring properties. 

Now, five years on from their 

move, residents 

are ready to see 

the back of them.

were always on the street, the 

dust gathered on the cars. They 

turned the road into a dusty old 

quarry,” she said. 

Worthington Contracting 

founder Russell Worthington 

said the company was not there 

to annoy residents and was 

looking forward to moving out 

of the residential area. 

“We mitigate the dust by watering 

down with sprinklers. We 

don’t actually want to be there 

either. As soon as we can get out 

of there, we will. We try really 

hard to accommodate any of the 

issues they have,” he said. 

Stapletons Rd resident Pam 

Skurr said there was no need 

for the company to be in the 

middle of a residential zone. 

“They don’t need to be there. 

That is an industrial commercial 

company that has set 

up down the road from lots of 

houses . . . we didn’t have dust 

problems before they were 

here,” she said. 

Environment Canterbury 

said it had received four complaints 

in the last 12 months. 

“We have received one dust 

complaint relating to Worthington 

Contracting’s Guild 

St site. The complaint was 

received on November 24, 2015 

. . . we have had no complaints 

since,” ECan said. 

The other three complaints 

were for “minor discharges” 

of sediment into water. Two 

of those were attributed to the 

Guild St site and were caused 

by a blocked sump for a truck 

wash and run off from dust 

suppression.

Our People 

PEGASUS POST 

Volunteer work at home and abroad 

Chris Allan started the 

Joshua Foundation 11 

years ago, which helps 

troubled youth in the 

city. He spoke to Caitlin 

Miles about how the army 

saved him from a bad 

path, serving in Sierra 

Leone and throwing 

people out of planes. 

FOCUSED: Chris and Pamela Allan. Their children Joshua, Rachel and Becky all inherited his adrenalin gene, getting ready to 

zipline while in Vanuatu, Chris is on the right. 

Chris can you tell me a bit 

about the Joshua Foundation? 

Well, it started with the aim to 

help troubled and at-risk youth. 

Now it is about helping all young 

people, getting them integrated 

into and working with their local 

community better. We do a lot 

of work with youth in Linwood 

and Aranui, but our work is 

expanding. We want to create 

projects that could be accessible 

to everyone. 

You said we, who does that 

include? 

My wife Pamela and I set it up. 

Why did you decide to set up 

the project? 

We wanted to give kids a 

chance, show them that they can 

be heading down a bad track and 

turn them around and get them 

focused on making positive steps 

in their own life and in their 

communities so they can give 

back to them. Once you change 

one person in a family, that will 

have a run-on effect when they 

have a family and that will continue 

down the line. That’s what 

we want to do. Keep supporting 

and pointing young people in a 

positive direction for their lives. 

Where did the name Joshua 

come from? 

We wanted to get a name sorted 

very early on and my wife and 

I were both trying to come up 

with ideas. As a Christian-based 

organisation we were thinking 

of biblical names. We decided 

to go into separate rooms and 

not come out until we had it. 

But then we both walked out 

of the rooms at the same time 

and thought of the same person. 

Joshua. He was hard working 

and had strong determination 

and they are key values we want 

to install in other young people. 

Did your time in the army 

contribute to your idea? 

It’s fair to say I was one of those 

kids that I now teach. I was not 

in a good way, I had left school 

at 15 and was starting to get into 

some bad things. Then I joined 

the army and those guys basically 

became my second family. They 

really helped to pull me out of 

that place and gave me purpose 

VOLUNTEERING: 

Pamela and Chris 

took their children 

to volunteer to 

work with villages 

and children in 

Mele-Mart Village, 

Port Vila Efate, in 

Vanuatu. 

and that kind of thing. They have 

definitely had an influence on me 

and my life and that’s what I hope 

to do for these other kids. 

What was your time in the 

army like? 

Like I said they are like my 

second family. I also became a 

jump master in the army so it 

was my job was to throw people 

out of C130 planes. I skydived for 

25 years and it was really great. I 

was a bit of an adrenalin junkie. 

You spent time working in 

Sierra Leone with the army, 

what was that like? 

It was horrendous. It was just 

after the Civil War in 1993 so it 

was a really unstable time over 

there. It encouraged me to do 

more work in other areas. 

You have also done volunteer 

work in Vanuatu, can you tell 

me about that? 

We bought a property over 

there when I was a training sergeant. 

Just loved the people and 

the place. We wanted to serve 

the villages with the kids in it. 

We wanted to take our kids there 

and show them how other people 

have to live and show that we can 

help them, so we went to some 

villages and volunteered with 

the people, we took over clothes 

and supplies and things they 

need. I think it really changed 

their perspective on things. Now 

we might go shopping and my 

kids will point out things that we 

could send to Vanuatu. They say: 

‘Dad how about we take that over 

next time.’ It’s really great to see 

them take notice. We just want 

to install a passion in them to 

help other people. 

Is volunteering over there 

something you hope to bring 

to your programmes with the 

Joshua Foundation? 

It is, it’s something we are 

currently working on actually. 

We have partnered up with the 

Student Volunteer Army to do 

volunteer work in Vanuatu. Then 

we plan to open that to kids 

across Canterbury. They would 

need to fund themselves, but the 

plan is to go over for 14 days and 

help and live in villages so they 

can understand what life is like 

and why it is important to help 

out these people. They really appreciate 

the work that people do 

to help and that’s why we do it. 

Talking about funding how 

do you manage? 

We are non-Government 

funded and do it all ourselves. 

We decided it was worth taking a 

risk and setting it up because we 

felt so strongly about it so we got 

the money ourselves and started. 

We’re the same now, we don’t 

like to ask people for money. We 

know that people make contributions 

to other places and have a 

lot on their plate already. 

What have been some of the 

stand out moments from the 

organisation? 

That’s a hard one to answer. 

There have been so many over 

the years to be honest it’s hard 

to pull out a few. There were two 

sisters though who we worked 

with, they have actually just got 

scholarships for university. One 

of the girls has received a scholarship 

for Canterbury University 

and the other for Otago, so it’s 

moments like that that have been 

really cool. I don’t want this to 

sound bad but I think after a 

while you get desensitised to it. 

So you still work as well? 

Yes, I’m the Officer Commanding 

Canterbury Company 

for the 2/4 RNZIR (Royal New 

Zealand Infantry Regiment). 

Do you get any spare time? 

Not really. But I don’t mind. 

My version of downtime is getting 

to sit with mates, couple of 

beers and watch the rugby. 

You’re a Canterbury supporter 

right? 

Yes, of course.

Marshland School pupils took to the slopes last week during their annual Mt Hutt ski 

trip. Teacher Carolyn Davies said the “great” forecast for the trip got it off to a fantastic 

start. “For some, it was their first time up the mountain. The day went smoothly as the 

organisation from Mt Hutt’s administration and ski instructors was outstanding . . . our 

pupils did not stop smiling and have had, in their own words, the best day of the year,” 

she said.

The Blind Care Company has been 

cleaning and repairing the region’s blinds 

for over 60 years. Those six decades 

have seen changes in both fashion and 

technology. Styles have ranged from 

festooned fabric swags to straightforward 

and still popular holland roller blinds, 

from vertical to horizontal slat systems, 

and in every colour or pattern popular 

since the 1960s. 

Whatever your style, the Blind Care 

Company has the expertise to keep your 

window treatments looking fresh and 

working efficiently. Using only ecofriendly

in stock. And if you want something

Coastal Spirit defender 

World Cup bound 

Two new courts 

for tennis club 


SHIRLEY TENNIS Club is 

well on its way to completely 

recovering from the earthquakes. 

Last week, the club asked to 

lease an extra 1296 sq m from the 

Burwood-Pegasus Community 

Board, so they could build two 

new tennis courts. 

The club lost all nine of its 

courts in the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake, but has since rebuilt 

seven. Now they are looking forward 

to having the full number 

of courts restored. 

Board chairwoman Andrea 

Cummings said it was pleasing 

to see the club in a position of 

strength after being on the back 

foot for so long. 

The two courts will be built 

on the former Shirley Bowling 

Club’s bowling green. 

• By Gordon Findlater 

REBECCA LAKE will be the 

pride of the south at the under-17 

World Cup in Jordan. 

The Coastal Spirit defender is 

the only South Islander named 

in coach Gareth Turnbull’s 

21-strong New Zealand team. 

She received a phone call from 

Turnbull last week to deliver the 

news. 

Lake was part of the team’s 

recent warm-up tournament in 

China, which proved a learning 

curve for New Zealand after 

they suffered defeats in all three 

games against Canada, Japan 

and China. 

“It was a really good experience. 

We had no idea what 

international football was like 

and have learnt so much from it,” 

said Lake. 

The 17-year-old has a busy 

schedule ahead of the World 

Cup. She has exams at Marian 

College this week and then heads 

to Auckland for a team camp 

on Friday before returning to 

Christchurch late Sunday for 

more exams. It’s then back into 

camp on Wednesday after she 

has finished her final exam. 

Her results in mid-year exams 

could be meaningful if all goes 

to plan. 

Lake is also pushing her case 

for selection in the under-20 

squad for their World Cup later 

this year in Papua New Guinea. 

“The team gets named in 

October. If I do make the team, 

then I won’t be here for the end 

of year exams which means they 

will use my mid-year results.” 

Playing against the boys is 

something Lake grew up with 

coming through the grades. Her 

New Zealand squad has also 

been taking on some of Auckland’s 

top youth teams during 

World Cup build-up. 

“When I’ve been in Auckland 

we’ve focused on preparing for 

WORLD CUP 

BOUND: Coastal 

Spirit defender 

Rebecca Lake 

will travel to 

Jordan later 

this month to 

represent New 

Zealand at 

the women’s 

under-17 World 

Cup. 

Mexico. Gareth (Turnbull) has 

chosen a couple of boys teams 

that play like Mexico. We played 

an under-15 metro team recently, 

they we’re pretty good.” 

Lake is also preparing to represent 

Canterbury. 

Her Mainland Pride team 

has already begun pre-season 

training ahead of the national 

women’s league which begins in 

October. 

The under-17 World Cup begins 

on September 30 and runs 

until October 21. New Zealand 

will face Mexico, Spain and 

Jordan in their group.

HEALTH & BEAUTY 

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

while interconnecting ground floor 

living spaces allow for entertaining on 

an intimate or grand scale.

central counter, efficient (in-slab) 

heating system and double garaging 

supplemented by ample off street 

parking roll out a few of the essential 

must haves. 

Situated on the favoured northern 

side of the street and complemented by 

easy care 471sqm grounds, the home 

provides direct indoor/outdoor flow 

with perfect orientation for alfresco 

entertaining options.

moments away, while local cafes and 

numerous local amenities offer further 

recreational options. Your family’s 

educational needs will be amply met, 

with a variety of sought after private 

schools nearby and zoning for (Elmwood 

Primary, Heaton Intermediate, CBHS

AUTOMOTIVE PROFESSIONALS 

The BMW experts 

BMWs and BMW minis are some of the most recognisable and 

best selling cars around. Known for their European engineering 

as well as their stylish appearance, it’s important to go to the 

experts when looking for parts and servicing. 

Conveniently located on McAlpine St in 

Sockburn, Eurocare and Eurorec Ltd offers 

a wide range of servicing and repairs options 

and because they are also specialist BMW 

dismantlers, they also have a huge range of parts 

available to trade and individual buyers. And if 

they don’t have it in stock in their own large 

inventory, they can source new or used parts at 

your request from around New Zealand. 

Whether your beloved car needs a full 

replacement engine or body panels, or it just 

needs window clips, the knowledgeable teams 

at Eruocare and Eurorec can supply or track 

down the correct part for your model and 

year. When dismantling a vehicle, they make 

sure they rescue and restore as many parts as 

possible for reuse on other vehicles. 

To keep your BMW running smoothly and 

safely, they will also repair and service it. If a 

vehicle has failed its WOF, needs a service or 

requires running repairs, the 

team of specialist mechanics 

will work quickly and efficiently 

to have your car back on the road as soon 

as possible. This includes everything from 

oil changes, new filters and brake pads to 

gear box, suspension, clutches and exhaust 

systems. Their team is highly trained and, as 

they are BMW specialists, they have all the 

knowledge and skills necessary to provide a 

high quality standard of workmanship. Their 

workshop includes diagnostic machines so 

they can easily find the source of any problems. 

Open five days a week and on Saturdays by 

appointment, Eurocare and Eurorec Ltd’s teams 

are on hand to help with all your BMW parts, 

servicing, repairs and dismantling needs. Call 

today on (03) 341 6678, email eurorec@clear.
