Home My WebLink AboutClinton News Record, 2014-06-11, Page 11Opening up our homes and our eyes Steve Howe Special to the Signal Star Our International team is now on the road looking for new host families to pro- vide a home away from home for our international students coming in Sep- tember. We are expecting over 120 students from around the world to attend Avon Maitland schools in Huron and Perth Counties for the 2014-2015 school year. We will have short term, one semester and full year students coming from coun- tries like Spain, Brazil, Mexico, Germany, Japan, China and even Australia. Hosting an international student is a rewarding experience for you and your family and of course a once in a lifetime experience for your international guest. Most of these students are coming to Canada for the very first time and many travelling beyond their home for the first time. Canada, and in particular Ontario, has an impressive reputation around the world for the quality of our educa- tion. Thousands of students from every corner of the earth look to Canada each year for a great education, a new cultural experience and to improve their English lan- guage skills. The numbers continue to grow every year. We began promoting our schools not too long ago, in the fall of 2011. Since that time we have truly become a destination of choice. In our first year we attracted 29 stu- dents. We followed that with 88 students this year and we are on target to grow by as much as 40% for the 2014- 2015 school year. This benefits our schools and communities in many ways. It creates a more diverse population providing our stu- dents with a more global per- spective. It allows the Board to maintain many course offer- ings that might have been in jeopardy because of declining enrolment. It also saves valu- able jobs in our schools and in some cases creates new employment opportunities. It also contributes to the local economy because these are fee -paying students, who also pay for home stay services and bring along their own personal spending money. 100 full-time equivalent stu- dents would inject more that over $2 million into our local economy. Now with this growth, there are challenges. We need more active families across Huron and Perth to provide a home away from home for our international guests. The experience is priceless and host families are compensated. Contact us today to find out how it all works, how you and your fam- ily can benefit and how your participation will help our schools. We have representa- tives in all regions of our dis- trict who will visit with you and answer all of your ques- tions. For more information showe@yourschoolsincan- ada.com or call 1-800-592- 5437 ext 132. You won't regret checking on this opportunity.

Wednesday, June 11, 2014 • News Record 11 Chronic pain relief now available at Clinton Chiropractic and Wellness Centre Special to the News Record Cold laser with micro cur- rent therapy promotes a nat- ural healing process at the cellular level. When injury occurs the inflammatory process causes pressure on the nerve endings to immobilize the area, causing pain. As cold laser with micro current repairs injured tissue, toxins that are caused by inflam- mation, are removed from the cell making it very effec- tive for relief acute or chronic pain. When exposed to cold laser with micro current, the targeted body part increases metabolism of cells and improves blood circulation thus inflamed tissue heals faster. This offers relief of pan by reducing inflammation, increasing range of motion and improv- ing cell production. Laser therapy also pro- motes the growth of new skin cells by stimulating blood circulation that nour- ishes and oxygenates from the inside out. Increased lymph circulation which removes waste and toxins results in diminished swell- ing and improved appear- ance of skin. Cold laser with micro cur- rent works well in combina- tion with other therapies such as chiropractic and reg- istered massage therapy. It provides a safe and reli- able option for those seeking relief of pain without drugs or surgery. "I am pain free, have full range of motion and was able to avoid surgery" KG "It is a marvelous for any- one with pain" CP "This is amazing, I can't believe the relief in such a short time" JP Specific restrictions apply. Cold laser therapy should not be used on a suspicious cancerous lesion or carcinoma, over the thyroid or eyes. Since the effects on unborn chil- dren are not yet known it is not recommended dur- ing pregnancy. A series of five to 15 treatments may be required depending on the severity and duration of the condition for relief of pain. Cold laser with micro cur- rent is now offered by Janet Brunswick RNCP, R.BIE at Clinton Chiropractic and Wellness Centre. Janet's career started as a registered practical nurse and during this time she developed a devoted inter- est to preventative, natural and holistic health care. Janet offers nutritional coaching as a registered nutritional consultant prac- titioner and tests for food and environmental sensi- tivities through applied kinesiology. Janet offers BioEnergetics (BIE) that restores balance back to through various meridians (an ancient Chinese prac- tice) and allows the body's vital life energy to heal the distressed organ or tissue. Janet believes in supporting the needs of the body, mind and spirit to bring back vitality and wellbeing ... allowing the body to heal itself.
