Pain, Pain, Go Away Is your aching body holding you back from enjoying life? Have you tried countless therapies and still find yourself in pain? Could it be that you have tight fascia? Fascia is a layer of highly flexible, fibrous connective tissue that surrounds muscles, groups of muscles, blood vessels and nerves and binds some structures together while allowing others to slide smoothly over each other. It’s continuous matrix covers us from head to toe, (which is its strength and its failing); its strength in that it gives us our shape, posture, range of motion and flexibility, its failing in that trauma or repetitive action will affect the fascial fibres by disturbing their pattern. This results in tightness, restriction, pain and tension throughout other areas of the body. If you have pain that has been nagging for years (think about what you do on a regular basis), or if you have tried a myriad of treatments (consider old injuries) that haven’t worked, think about this: what you could do without pain and restriction!
Issue 33 • May, June, July, August, September 2014
Bowen Therapy is the missing link. Its rolling movement over the fascia, muscles, ligaments, tendons and joints allows the body to release its fascial holding patterns, which in turn releases the pain you’ve been putting up with. Says Yvette from Mornington: ‘Just went back for my second treatment - Terri totally hit the spot - a pain in my lower back I’ve had for years and years that neither chiro or doctor could ever give suggestion or fix - Terri was straight onto it and has given me great follow up exercises’. Call Terri today at Bodhi Tree Therapies on 0407 768 223 20/22 Ranelagh Drive Mt Eliza

Breast is Best at Breastfeeding Drop In Centre at Lotus Chiropractic Mount Eliza Village is the home of a new volunteer based Breastfeeding Drop In Centre. Kimberlie Furness, (owner of Lotus Chiropractic) and Lactation Consultant and Naturopath Mary Smart - have come together to provide this invaluable community service to mothers and babies across the Peninsula. To achieve optimal growth, development and health, the World Health Organisation recommends babies are exclusively breastfed for the first six months with continued breastfeeding and appropriate complementary food to the age of two years and beyond. According to the Australian Breastfeeding Association, the Australian Statistics fall well short of this with 96% of mothers initiating exclusive breastfeeding, but less than half of the babies being exclusively breastfed to three months (and less than a quarter to five
months old). ‘We believe the breastfeeding relationship between mother and baby is strengthened and prolonged when mum feels supported,’ says Kimberlie. ‘Our Drop In Centre is a friendly and comfortable space for families to visit with qualified lactation consultant Mary’. Open from 10am to 12 noon every Wednesday, the Drop In benefits from the facilities offered within Lotus; including a play room for older siblings and baby change room. Also available are a range of other health practitioners and services including Chiropractic, Yoga, Kinesiology, Massage and Myotherapy. There is even a Mums and Bubs yoga class conveniently timetabled from 121pm every Wednesday. For those who prefer a private consultation, Mary is available for one-on-one sessions on Fridays.
Introducing
Kimberlie and Mary are proud to volunteer the time and space for this service. ‘Dropping into the centre may be what makes the difference for those who are experiencing challenges with breastfeeding’. Breastfeeding Drop In at Lotus, 17 Ranelagh Drive, Mt Eliza. Every Wednesday 10 to 12noon - Gold coin donation for tea and coffee. For enquiries, please call 9787 8288.

Let’s get it On ‘You get what you focus on. Draw a line in the sand and decide how today is going to turn out now’… (The On Button-Facebook April 3rd)
We all have the power to shape our lives and create our own vision. Personal Coach Ben Carvosso from The On Button knows this to be true. He thrives on helping clients recognise their power to create positive change. ‘I help people reconnect with their true selves and
find the lives they really want to live. Many people have repetitive and negative patterns. It’s a way of just existing – content in not being truly content. The On Button turns people back on to a life of insight and realisation. I don’t do motivation – that comes from the outside – I focus on encouraging each client to discover their own inspiration and insights for themselves. That’s when the real change happens’. While training to be a chiropractor, Ben found that he gravitated towards the training, coaching and education workshops being held on university campus, and this is where his is love of personal coaching began. Twenty-three years later (seven of these based in Mt Eliza), The On Button is pressed for success. He still practises as a chiropractor, but most of his work these days is in the personal coach arena. ‘There’s none of that sitting down and recounting all the things that have gone wrong in your life at The On Button. I focus on the future, and how you are going to get the most out of it’, says Ben. So if you are in a rut or stuck somewhere you don’t want to be, why not try a one hour Discover Coaching Session for just $49 yourself – positive change could be just around the corner… The On Button 1392 Nepean Highway, Mt Eliza 9787 8518 Find them on Facebook too! by Liz Rogers

Summer may be gone but a Great Smile helps keep things Bright and Cheery So what makes a Great Smile? A nice smile is one that makes you happy – that enhances what you already have. We love helping our patients create the “vision” that they have for their smile. A nice smile involves achieving harmony and balance with tooth shape / face shape. At Dental Care Mt Eliza we can discuss what options are appropriate for you including; • Tooth whitening, at home methods and Zoom (Mother’s day gift vouchers available) • Veneers • Crown & bridge • Implants • Bonding • Orthodontics You don’t have to be born with a beautiful smile to have one – we can help you achieve it Just ask us how. Some smile facts: A smile is the most frequently used facial expression Smiling releases endorphins and makes people feel better A smiling person is judged to be more pleasant, attractive, sincere, sociable and competent than a non smiling person.

One Step at a Time How much do you think about your feet? The team at Step Ahead Podiatry think about them all the time – that’s what they are trained to do. Step Ahead Podiatry has been operating in Mt Eliza for the last ten years. They have recently moved to a larger space a couple of doors down from their last premises and changes are afoot! Podiatrist Kayley Baird explains; ‘We have three podiatrists and two receptionists in our new premises. Robyn Holt (the previous owner who has returned to work after having a year off) Stephen Chellingsworth and myself are able to address every client’s needs. There is a shorter waiting period and you can usually make an appointment on either the same day or the next’. Step Ahead Podiatry takes care of your feet (and your ankles and lower structures of the leg) in a friendly environment where gentle and thorough examination is key to their success. They have a
wide range of treatment modalities. Corns, callous and general skin conditions, nail care and ingrown toenail surgery, radiology (X-ray, ultrasounds and MRI referrals if required) and management of soft tissue and joint problems are just some of the services they provide. Diabetes and Biomechanical (foot and overall posture) assessments are also available. Department of Veteran Affairs clients and those with a Team Care Arrangement pay no gap for standard consults, whereas HICAPS availability ensures those with private health insurance only pay the gap if covered for podiatry. Home visits are also available Monday through Friday. Just speak with one of their receptionists, Rowan or Fraser, to make an appointment. So now is the time to start looking after two of your greatest assets with Step Ahead Podiatry – the place where feet come first.

GIRL POWER
With a history dating back since 1910, Girl Guides continue to be the quiet achievers, with over a million Australian women involved in Girl Guides in our country. The Mt Eliza Girl Guides is no different, led by volunteers including head leader, Michele Coventry, whose GG name is Possum, they worked tirelessly on Australia Day cleaning up the Canadian Bay beach and walkways. Age was no barrier for these girl guides with Mt Eliza Girl Guides Koala ages 7-10 and Sugargliders ages 10-15 patrols along with some of the Duke of Edinburgh students from Toorak College also taking part in the clean up, which ended up collecting 52kg of rubbish. Along with three other leaders, including Prue Lines- Perrier (Tookonie), Melanie Smith
(Maggie) and Leesa McCann (Bluebell), Michele and the Mt Eliza GG organise and run camps, sleepovers, outdoor events, weekend adventure excursions, local parades and fundraising with sausage sizzles and girl guides biscuits. With the mission of Girl Guides Australia to enable girls and young women to grow into confident, self-respecting community members, maybe it’s a good time to check out your local Girl Guides patrol. What better way to introduce your daughter to an organization that promotes comradeship, community awareness and fun. Girl Guides Mt Eliza hold weekly patrol meetings on Mondays at 4pm -5.30pm for the Koalas and for the Sugargliders 5.30-7pm in the Guides Hut on the grounds of Toorak College, Old Mornington Rd, Mt Eliza.

Already accommodating one hundred diners, 1001 Nights is soon to be extending their premises.
