After years of fighting for recognition from the medical profession, Therese C. Pfrimmer's clinic for Deep Muscle Therapy in Bayfield made another ad- vancement recently. Its clinic and the treatments taken by many people is now recognized under the Ontario Hospital Insurance Plan (OHIP). With the recent graduation of three more students, there are now 36 deep muscle therapy clinics throughout the United States and Canada. The 12th class of deep muscle therapists graduated from the Pfrimmer Clinic, on September 29. They were each involved in a three -weepcaunee— --at -- the,. Bayfield clinic. Catherine Clausing of Seattle, Washingon ex- plained why she took the course, "I have been practicing massage therapy in Seattle, Washington for two years. I have worked with some deep muscle technique but I felt that more could be done. When I read the National Exchange article about the wonderful work that Therese C. Pfrimmer was doing, I thrilled. I contacted her im- mediately ._about taking the course. The course has been inspiring and very informative. Mrs. .Pfrimmer has the courage to work on any kind of crippling con- dition or "health problem using the Deep Muscle Therapy. During this course, she has shown us how releasing muscle involvement is the an- swer to many physical problems. I am honored to have had the op- portunity to study with such a dedicated and --courageous-person .---• — Dr. Kathleen Mary Power, D.C. from Pasadena, California noted, "Someone showed me an article about Therese Pfrimmer's work. I read it that night and called her the next day begging her to teach me; It was so sijple. It made so much sense to work with muscles for she reminds us that the body is made up of mostly muscle tissue." She went on, "Since I've been at the Bayfield clinic, I've met many wonderful people with stories, to tell about their results with Deep Muscle Therapy, from spurs to scoliosis lumbo -sacral pain to cerebral palsy and much more. It's a shame that her work isn't more well known." Another graduate, Margaret Joyce Gaidamasciuk from River View, New Brunswick said, "As a registered nurse I am interested in the health of other people. I work in a nursing home for the elderly and see many d -i -1`•f e r-e.n t-- r i, p.,p.l..i.n_g- conditions. After reading the book, "Musocles Your Invisible Bonds," I realized just how im- portant our muscles are. In the nursing profession, very little emphasis is placed on muscles as being the cause of crippling conditions." "I am happy that I Council reviews plan dor Square A Heritage con- servation district plan to maintain and augment the historical significance of The Square ' was recently presented to Goderich town council. Architect 'Nick Hill, author of the con- servation plan, told cou.l.cil members it was the first heritage plan in the province of its kind, while two other municipalities were in the process +of establishing similar plans. Hill explained that the basic purpose of the plan was to analyze the historic town centre of Goderich and arrive at a set of policies to ensure its long-term viability, preservation and enhancement. He added that The Square area is widely recognized as a valuable example of town planning and coupled with numerous buildings of historical significance The Square is an ar- chitectural composition of national significance. But the conservation plan is simply an initial step towards the preservation and enhancement of the core area and policies and programs will need to be updated to make the plan more comprehensive. These changes would become amendments to the official plan for the town. Town council has already passed a bylaw that de6ignated 12 buildings as historical structures and under the plan would give similar designation to a host of other buildings in The Square area. Under the bylaw, council must grant approval to any exterior alterations or demolition requests. Hill's plan examines the eight block Square area on a block by block basis and sets goals for each. Proposals for The Square area were drawn up after consultation with local businessmen and conservation group members. Hill pointed outthat the goals of the planwould also compliment the wot&k being done in The Square also coriielemeht the work being done in The Square area now with new sidewalks, lighting and tree planting. was a aetaucu une and maintained the essence of a secondary plan.

"The Act will delay demolition for a period of 180 days," Hill explained. "That delay just allows municipalities or groups time to save the structure or find alternatives." Council has been waiting for im- plementation of the, plan in dealing with Ken Hutchins and a building used by Glen Mark Lumber on South Street. Mr. Hutchins will be leaving .town and unable to sell the building took out a demolition permit. That permit was later revoked as the town sought to preserve the former livery stable built in 1873, it ' 'Goderich' works commissioner Ken Hunter said Hutchins is willing to co-operate with the town and he is op- timistic an agreement can be reached to save the historic buildings, the last of its kind remaining in Goderich. The plan is also designed to maintain a certain uniformity on The Square as new buildings are being built. Hill said that new buildings can easily be incorporated into The Square with a certain degree of com- patibility by maintaining a uniform height and exterior design. However, he cautioned that there was a need for more harmonious design of store fronts but added that a certain amount of clutter and ' spontaneity is also good. Councillor • Bob Allen questioned Hill on what could be done about the old Victoria Opera House on Kingston Street that is in a state 'of disrepair. Allen claimed that several bricks on, the building are loose and could fall to the street at any time. Hill said the plan made specific provisions for some buildings that were in need of repair. He said there was really only one building on The Square that was determined unuseable. Since the plan is an amendment to the official plan of the town it has been • forwarded to planning board for fur- ther study and the board will in turn make recommendations to town council. Summer success Summer '78 has been a success for the 22 people participating ,in• the Experien '. 78t px'ogrr3ax� at -Mainctd-Vat'I'epa Conservation Authority. The 22;secondary; and post-seEondary stu8ents have completed a vari'ety of projects since they began work in May and June. Marilyn Grainger, Ken Karges, Carol Adams and Debbie Gohl took on the technical assignments. Designing and writing authority brochures, development of a slide presentation, infra -red photography in- terpretation and detailed research on the Belgrave Creek were some of the major undertakings of this technicalcrew. Aside from this, they were 'involved in constructing the Authority's Cen- t nial float used in local °pgrades. They were also responsible for ,the planning and organization of an Education Day for which they and remaining staff took part in. The long hot days in the field did not deter the quality and quantity of work accomplished at the various sites. Each member of the crew contributed their share to the various projects undertaken. Their en- thusiasm and hard work has gone to great lengths in making the program one of the best this authority has taken part in. • came to Bayfield, to take -the course of the Pfrimmer technieque of Deep Muscle Therapy.
