Flagstone Podiatry | flagstone

Projects like the New Beith Road, which will substantially reduce travel time between Flagstone and Springfield by providing an important connection to the Springfield Greenbank arterial. These projects will improve access to Flagstone and help foster community growth opportunities where businesses can prosper.

As the Flagstone community expands, the need for small businesses increases; particularly those professionals from the allied health services.

Professionals like David from Flagstone Podiatry, who recognise the fantastic opportunity Flagstone presented and has taken advantage of what it has to offer; recently opened their practice in the area.

How and why did you open in Flagstone?

Coast, as well as community podiatry across Brisbane, Ipswich, the Gold Coast and northern New South Wales.

When should someone consult a Podiatrist?

Podiatrists are the experts in foot and lower limb health. They are university trained health professionals who are able to investigate, diagnose and treat conditions affecting the feet, ankles, knees and hips.

What are some conditions podiatrists can treat?

Common conditions include heel or arch pain, knee and ankle pain or ingrown toenails. We can treat all types of feet, from kids’ feet to the elderly and anything in between!

We chose to open our podiatry clinic in Flagstone because we recognised the need for more allied health services in the local area. We want to serve the local community by offering high-quality podiatry care to achieve a superior outcome for our patients.

What can people expect when they come?

SPECIAL FEATURE

HOW TO KEEP

KIDS ENGAGED

OVER THE

HOLIDAY

BREAK

encourage kids to look out for animals as well as sticks, leaves, and other materials, then imagine what crafts they could use them for at home.

Teach math and science through cooking Parents can encourage kids to use measuring cups and ask them to double, quadruple or halve recipes. Parents can also talk about how various ingredients, like yeast, affect food. That’s what cooking is, using science to create something delicious.

Teach collaboration through games

S

Focus on games and challenges that require the family to work together: complex jigsaw puzzles, or even charades. When you have to work together, it brings out the best in everyone. You see people helping each other instead of putting each other down or being so competitive.

Of course, this year thanks to the pandemic, millions of children are already home— experiencing home learning for the first time.

And though parents might be tempted to sit kids down with daily math problems and reading exercises to keep their brains stimulated, may not be the best approach over the break.

There’s so much learning that can go on that you can sneak in—the kids just won’t know.

ummer break: that time when kids are finally free of classroom instruction and mounds of homework to do and are left with pretty much nothing while they’re home for a couple of weeks.

Using summer break as a frantic opportunity to catch up with your own child likely isn’t going to increase any test scores. But by spending quality time with their children and letting them learn through experiences, parents can help kids keep their brains engaged—and that will help make sure they’re ready to continue learning once they return to school in January.

Taurus

(Apr. 20 - May 20)

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)

There could be a need to understand and work hard in order to share a genuine rapport with your loved ones. This is likely to be frustrating because of numerous questions and contrary opinions.

2022 is not a great time to travel but a few trips might be arranged. Make your ideas clear, be bold and take the initiative. Financial operations may show uphill progress. Sincere efforts and immense concentration is required to deal with professional matters. You may drift into a mode of profound thankfulness. The most important thing is to strike a balance between work and play.

All aspects of life will see better performance from your end, compared to the preceding years. Plenty of good news is in-store for Virgos. You’ll finally comprehend the connection between a healthy body and a healthy mind. Fresh air can be inhaled by those suffering from blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol as you are on the road to recovery. Uninvited guests are likely to visit you and stay for a longer time than expected testing your patience. Meeting with a powerful individual, around August or September, will support you in the future.

Gemini

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

(May 21 - Jun. 20)

Success is on its way however proper planning is essential. A happy influence from every direction of life will make you more energetic and determined. Your desire is to have a free and fruitful life and you will take all efforts to make it possible. SUCCESS is your mantra in 2022 and your financial horizons will expand to make you feel powerful and much sought after. Luck will favour you, but you need to keep yourself away from negative thoughts.

Incredible ideas, new contacts and concrete decisions see a significant place throughout 2022.

A fruitful year with plenty of blossoming projects and realizing objectives is likely to keep you on your toes. Investments in real estate during March and October could yield maximum returns.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

2022 presents you a year full of luck, success, and delights. While you’ve been struggling for the previous years, your efforts will start producing results, from now. Expect a high-spirited lifestyle on the health cards. Be sure to follow a balanced diet and practice a regular exercise regime. On the professional front, a series of new contacts will develop, that’ll help you climb the ladder of success.

The year 2022 is expected to bring pleasure and self-contemplation. All aspects of life are likely to proceed smoothly, with special emphasis on relationships and careers. Give immediate attention to a prevailing minor skin problem, else it is likely to worsen. Kids are likely to give you good news in the month of March. Celebrations are in the pipeline as a housewarming is expected in the second half of the year. Not very satisfying results are foreseen with business or professional visits made in the first quarter. Investing in a property during the months of March, June and October should yield moderate returns.

Leo (Jul. 23-Aug. 22)

Capricorn (Dec. 21 - Jan. 20)

A prospective year to try your experiments is in line. More so, these trials and errors will prove fruitful and add spark to your life. Powers of creativity and imagination will be showered upon you. Health will be excellent around the year, both physically and mentally. By following a proper and healthy diet, you’ll stay energized and on the go.

With a positive outlook, your well-being will further be boosted.

The year 2022 offers you a promising and smooth life ahead, provided you leave all the tensions and stresses aside. They haven’t benefitted you in the previous year; nor will they do in the upcoming one. For a more compelling and relaxing life, keep yourself free from any kind of tensions and worries. You’ll be given extra attention from family and close ones. The first half of the year may not be very fulfilling, it may be best to postpone your property deals to the second half for better returns.

Recipe

The Perfect Prime Rib

P

rime rib, also referred to as standing rib roast, is a beautiful piece of meat. Whenever we need a truly show-stopping holiday roast, we turn to it. A well-cooked prime rib is juicy, full of flavor, and not at all difficult to make.

Do I not need to season it with more than salt and pepper?!

Prime rib is such a fancy cut of meat that you don’t need to do pretty much anything to it to make it taste delicious. But when we say season with salt and pepper, we mean it: You should be blanketing the meat with a thin layer of salt.

Instructions 1. Remove rib roast from packaging and place in a roasting pan. Let come to room temperature about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 230ºC350.

2. Generously cover all sides of rib roast with salt and pepper. Place roast in a roasting pan fat-side up. Arrange half the rosemary in the bottom of the pan around the roast.

3. Roast 30 minutes, then reduce heat to 180ºC and cook 1 hour 30 minutes more for medium rare. (time will defer depending on size).

4. Remove roast from oven, cover with foil, and let rest 20 minutes.

5. To serve, slice along ribs to remove them, then separate each rib and put them aside.

Slice the roast crossways against the grain.

Serve on a platter with the ribs and remaining half fresh rosemary.

TIME 3hrs 10min | YIELDS 12 Ingredients 1 standing rib roast | 1 tbsp. kosher salt 2 tsp. black pepper | 1 bunch fresh rosemary
