Loss of Suburban Trees

Teresa from Henderson

I was upset to wake up yet again to the sound of chainsaws felling 2 mature oaks on Kingdale road. I'm fully supportive of new housing but in the last 2 years we have at least 7 apartment blocks built or under construction here.

I'm fully supportive of new housing but in the last 2 years we have at least 7 apartment blocks built or under construction here. These trees were at the back of the section and could have been saved.
These sections are all cleared, topsoil and all vegetation removed. Apart from a couple of ornamental annuals, no plants are replaced. Where do the birds, wetas, other insect and birdlife go!
So sad!

Elite Inversion table

Inversion therapy is a technique where you are suspended upside down to stretch the spine and relieve back pain. The theory is that by shifting the body’s gravity, pressure eases off the back while also providing traction for the spine.

For these reasons, inversion therapy is beneficial for people with:

• chronic lower back pain

• poor circulation

• sciatica

• scoliosis


Improved spinal health and flexibility
The inversion table folds away when not in use.
This is in very good condition, it's hardly been used.

The table can handle a maximum weight of 250 pounds, and a maximum user height of 6’4″, and has a built-in height adjustment selector. An extended set of handles will help you get out of high inversion angles more easily. A 4-point pod-style base keeps the unit stable. Inversion is controlled by a 3-point adjustable safety bar at the back of the product.

One study looked at 47 people with chronic low back pain. They practiced inversion therapy in three 3-minute sets at different angles. The study found that inversion therapy at 60 degrees reduced back pain after eight weeks. It also improved torso flexibility and strength.

Price: $350
