YOUR BACK? We all live a busy life with work, family, and recreation commitments and our backs often bear the brunt of these activities. Hours spent sitting at a desk or behind the wheel; a weekend home improvement project; an overenthusiastic afternoon of sport: all of these can wreak havoc on the muscles and joints of the back.

THE SKIN WE LIVE IN...
WE’RE HAVING A PARTY!
Flawless are now an authorised scar management clinic! By Sharon McAlpine of Flawless Falkirk
The time skin takes to heal will vary depending on a number of factors including wound size, depth, and location; the person’s age; heredity; and skin characteristics including colour (pigmentation).
Join Flawless to celebrate our NEW clinic Launch
2 The longer it takes for the skin to heal, the greater the chance of a noticeable scar. Scarring is the final stage of the healing process, but not all scars will become abnormal scars. Normal scars will develop during the first 48 hours after wound closure and can fade within three months, whereas abnormal scars can develop many years after the first injury.
in AIRTH CASTLE HOTEL
THURS 20TH MARCH, 6.00PM–9.00PM

FINANCIAL ADVICE WITH TOM MUNRO
SIX SIMPLE STEPS TO A STRESS-FREE LIFE... Financial Planning is all about achieving goals in life, it’s not just about buying products like a pension plan or an ISA. For example it might involve putting appropriate wills in place to protect your family, thinking about how your dependants will manage without your income should you become ill or die prematurely, so giving rational thought about all of these things together should help you formulate a sound financial plan. You can implement a plan on your own, or if your needs are more complex you might want to engage a Financial Planner. Creating a sound financial plan usually comprises six steps as follows: • Establish your goals in life – short, medium and of course long term • Work out what assets and liabilities you have – write them down and save somewhere • Evaluate your current financial position – how close are you to achieving your goals
Start by working out your goals in life by Prioritising and think about the likely current expenditure required to meet those goals and when you will need the money. This will enable you to plan your finances to work out how to achieve future objectives. Don’t forget you also have to plan for some of the hurdles you may have to overcome too. It’s about being structured and taking control of your finances rather than letting your finances control you. By planning your finances to meet your goals you will gain much greater confidence of where you are going in life, reducing your stress levels and begin to enjoy life more. Attaining control and peace of mind through knowing whether you’re on track to achieve the future you want for you and your family, the first step is deciding to make these important goals a reality. For more information visit www.tommunro.co.uk
We guarantee a top quality bespoke service of curtains and soft furnishings, all manufactured in our sewing room and can be installed by our experienced fitters at an extremely competitive cost tailored to suit any budget. Fabric companies we use include: Brian Yates, Zinc, Romo, Villa Nova, Today Interiors, Osborne & Little, Harlequin, Voyage, Kandola, Casamance & Prestigious.
See you next month.
• Develop your plan – create a “route map” for achieving your various goals • Implement your plan – make the changes and make it happen • Monitor and review your plan - at least yearly and make adjustments when needed
