18 - The Oakville Beaver Weekend, Saturday April 12, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com H E A LT H & W E L L N E S S `A Course in Wellness for Women' now available in Oakville By Carlye McLoughlin OAKVILLE BEAVER SPECIAL Too often women think they do not have a voice to express themselves and thus women find themselves living their lives to please others. Founded in 1985 and located in Georgetown, Ontario, Personal Growth and Redecision Centre, is a private psychotherapy practice that has helped hundreds of women to find a greater sense of emotional, psychological and spiritual well-being. For the past ten years, Therese Haverty Cleary, S.S.W., B.A. and Linda Berry, M.S.W., RSW. have specialized in providing valuable information to women in the Georgetown area by offering a Course in Wellness for Women that is now also being offered to the women of Oakville. The Course in Wellness for Women is designed to provide women with skills to use in their day-to-day lives to ensure that their voices are heard. Often women have difficulty in expressing themselves and tend to remain silent within relationships. Women are taught early in life to `please others' to the exclusion of themselves. This course teaches women to be more fully connected with their inner selves, as well as finding their voices. Satisfied clients have reported that the course has been helpful in assisting them to understand the repetition of destructive patterns in their lives. They also report experiencing a greater sense of personal well-being, heightened ability to communicate effectively and significant improvement in their relationships with others. The Course in Wellness for Women is currently offered in individual format, consisting of ten one-hour individual sessions.This format allows for tailoring the course material to address each woman's individual issues. Group format is also available at various times throughout the year.

Hopedale Shopping Centre Suite 220, 2nd Floor 905-827-0301 quite loose and Q: My lower denture is does not help. relining the denture What can I do? This a very common question. A: Firstly,is dentures put pressure on your gums and the bone beneath. With no teeth present, the bone shrinks away. The pressure of the denture adds to the resorption of the jaw bone and can even cause pain. In the first few years without teeth, a reline adds plastic to the denture and can help it fit better to the missing gum/bone. Less gum/ bone means less for a denture to "grip" and soon relines can't help any longer. Using 3-4 dental implants ­ which are nothing more than ar tificial titanium tooth roots, you can have dentures that snap into place and do not move when eating or speaking and may also allow you to bite down with the same kind of force as when you had your own teeth. Today, placing these ar tificial roots is very common and can be easier than having teeth removed! This is the solution to a problem that has plagued most all denture wearers.
