Nearly ten years ago she received a double lung transplant and is now headed to the World Transplant Games in Australia to compete in several events including the 3 Km Race Walk, one of her key events. She will also be in a new catagory.

Stretch Bands from Australia Now Available
 Lifemoves is always stretching to find cutting edge and innovative tools to enhance the quality of life of our clients. Alfred spotted a Fitness World member using a very unique stretching band. The member said he received it from a Physiotherapist in Australia. After much searching Alfred found the supplier and discovered that this product is not available anywhere in Canada.
What is so innovative about these bands? Have you tried to stretch using a towel, belt or Yoga strap? Do you find that you still end up in awkward positions and not truly relaxed? Do you still struggle to gain flexibility?
The Lockeroom Sports bands are the answer. They come in a loop, have some elasticity and come in three sizes depending on your height. They also pack up easily for travel. Place them around your waist for a great multi-directional hamstring stretch or attach them to a post for upper-body stretches.
Lifemoves Health and Rehabilitation now offers them through our North Vancouver location (for pick-up only at this time). Pre-order yours today by emailing northshore@lifemoves.ca with subject: Stretch2009 to receive $5.00 off (first 20). Regularly $29.95 CAN + GST/PST (poster included). Remember to include your height and phone number.
Learn more about Fascial Stretch Therapy. Order a band and a 60 min stretching session for only $75 + GST (regularly $85).
