Bowel Cancer – You’re never too young

Bowel Cancer

Bowel cancer can strike at any age. Each year about 3,000 New Zealanders are diagnosed with the disease and more than 1,200 will die. That’s as many as breast and prostate cancer combined. But it is treatable – and beatable – if detected early enough. Check your symptoms

Spring

Gordon from Papamoa Beach

"The Spring is sprung,
The grass is riz,
I wonder where the birdies is?
They say "The bird is on the wing"!
But, that's absurd!
The Wing is on the Bird!!"

"The Spring is sprung,

They say "The bird is on the wing"!
But, that's absurd!
The Wing is on the Bird!!"


When does Spring arrive in Papamoa?
Some say 1 October,
Others say 1 September,
I say - 1 August,
Why?
1. The grass is growing,
2. My Gravillias are flowering - and have been for the last two weeks!
3. The Hedges are luxuriant! - I cut them yesterday!
4. We live in a Coastal environment, not like Queenstown...Brr...!



Anyone who denies what I am saying, just doesn't live in PMA!!

Hi Neighbours,
Did you know that living in a cold house in winter can affect your health?
If house temperatures fall below 16°C, the risk of respiratory illness increases. This is because cold houses are also usually damp, which can lead to respiratory symptoms.

One of the simplest steps toward a warm home is to stop draughts and keep the heat inside your home.

If you want to learn how to minimize the risks or how to identify draughts on your windows and doors, read our blog post or give us a call on 0800 25 25 00

Hi there,
I have recently moved to Ohauiti and set up my lovely massage studio called ‘The Healing Hub’....I specialise in swedish massage, and well known for my intuitive healing and deep tissue work. I have both female and male clients. I am professional and treat each client with respect and confidentiality. I offer a nurturing, peaceful sanctuary for my clients to relax and enjoy some well deserved ME time.

Regular massage is key to ensuring a healthy balance in this busy world.

Key health benifits of massage:
* Reduce muscle tension
* Improved circulation
* Stimulation of the lymphatic system
* Reduction of stress hormones
* Increased joint mobility and flexibility
* Heightened mental alertness
* Reduced anxiety and depression

Pricing:
$50 - 45 mins
$60 - 60 mins
$75 - 75 mins (most popular)
$90 - 90 mins

PS: I usually find knots and like to spend time working on areas that need healing, so I may not get through a full body massage in 60 mins, therefore I recommend 75 minutes.

Daytime, evening & weekend appointments avaiable.

Phone or Text 021 2013253

Thanks heaps and look forward to hearing from you.
