Finding relief for strains, sprains & stiffness We $Finding relief for strains, sprains & stiffness We all know exercising is essential for our well-being. But those workouts or walks, runs or cycles sometimes bring on the aches and pains. Strains and sprains, stiffness and soreness ... which can range from being uncomfortable to being completely debilitating. Biokineticist Kevin Oliver tells us more about sports injuries and helps us understand inflammation, which is the body's natural response to injury or trauma, and many sports injuries - including sprains, strains, fractures, and tendonitis - involve inflammation, characterised by swelling, pain, heat, redness, and loss of function. Read what he has to say by clicking on the link in our bio. Managing inflammation is essential to avoid a prolonged or chronic inflammatory state, to reduce pain and restore functionality. Conventional treatments may include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroid medications. However, many people pursuing healthy lifestyles prefer natural and holistic solutions that are free from side-effects. If you prefer to go the natural route, there are plenty of plants with anti-inflammatory properties - peppermint, rosemary, ginger and eucalyptus are a few. The Aromatic Apothecary Sport range includes roll-on, spray on and rub-on products that can be frequently applied on-the-go and provide quick relief throughout the day. The Sport Roll-on Relief is gel-based, and the roll-on applicator not only delivers active ingredients that are quickly absorbed into the sore muscle or joint, but it’s also a mini-massage. The Sport Spray-on Relief is a water-based solution, so perfect for larger, sore areas, such as an entire foot or shoulder, with no massage necessary so no sticky or oily hands. And the Sport Rub-on Relief is an easily absorbed cream that needs just a brief rub into sore muscles and joints for targeted relief. There’s also a massage oil, and the magnificently effective Sport Mustard Milk Soak Bath Crystals.

WIN WIN WIN… a copy of Beenwerf… an intriguing

WIN WIN WIN… a copy of Beenwerf… an intriguing blend of fiction and truth.

Frans Venter used the pseudonym, Frederick Erasmus, when he authored Beenwerf. This passionate writer has had an interesting life up to now… full of suffering and laughter. But, always more laughter than sorrow. He finds the ebb and flow of waves and bushveld sunsets most inspiring.

It is said quite truly, that truth is stranger than fiction. Frans, on the other hand, finds both equally fascinating. And so, he likes to weave fiction and truth in a thread resulting in new meanings and realities. This is how his latest book, Beenwerf was born.

Some more about it...
It began in Auschwitz, but did not end there. Decades later, identical twins are born a week apart, thousands of kilometers from each other.
Money, power and the superiority of the Aryan race are the building blocks of an exciting plot three generations later.
A South African journalist is unstoppable when her husband falls victim to a heinous plot. Piece by piece she unravels the connections between the bone yard of the past and the injustice in the present. But will she be able to stop the crime against life?

The book can be found at graffitibooks.co.za and coralpublishers.com from around R306. You can also order directly from the author by sending an email to frans@fransventer.co.za for R290 (delivery included).

For a chance to win, simply like this post, follow us and tag a fellow book-lover. Entries close April 30. Winners are to collect their prize from their nearest Get It office.

Wine for glam celebrations or casual dinners ... s

Wine for glam celebrations or casual dinners ... salute

With 5 stars in the Platter’s 2024 SA Wine Guide, this Le Riche Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 is the one to bring out for special celebrations. Fruit forward - delicious fresh black fruits, and firm tannins assist in creating a voluptuous, creamy mouthfeel which is balanced by a long, appetising finish. Enjoy with beef fillet with a cream and peppercorn sauce, or springbok ravioli with butternut. R330

Baked in the oven, pan-fried, grilled or smoked. No matter how it is prepared, salmon is always delicious. And to take it to the next level ... serve with a glass of Muratie Isabella Chardonnay. This full-bodied, subtly oaked Chardonnay - with an enticing peach-blossom fragrance, ripe stone fruit, melon and citrus flavours with hints of hazelnuts and vanilla cream perfectly complements the richness of salmon. R280

The exquisite next vintage of Cavalli Chardonnay 2023 has been released ... a burst of bright tropical flavours and delicate white stone fruit - zesty lime, tangy orange, and juicy nectarine with a tropical hint of pineapple and mango, along with a touch of delicate spice and vanilla and buttery brioche. R210

The vegan-friendly Journey’s End V1 Chardonnay 2022 is elegant, refined, with a gorgeous aromatic freshness (think citrus with vibrant lemon and lime notes and hints of floral orange blossom), and a silky smooth palate - with subtle coconut and peach notes. R195. From the same estate, the V3 Shiraz 2020 is an easy-drinking wine with an expressive aromatic delivery of blackcurrants and violets with notes of white pepper and dried coriander. Generous oak aging in larger format barrels allowed the vineyard character to shine, with great natural acidity and a silky long-lasting finish. R218

The De Hoop Vlei MTB Experience is a three-day race or ride (your choice) designed to be physically challenging, but not exhausting, that takes you through parts of the reserve you wouldn’t easily reach on foot or by vehicle and guarantees you the chance to reset and appreciate the incredible natural diversity, meet like-minded people, enjoy tasty food, sample fine wines and enjoy comfortable accommodation offered by the @dehoopreserve

Friday 17 May kicks off with a short Sunset Scramble warm-up ride of 12km at 4pm – ride off into a spectacular sunset where Bontebok perfect the picture of pristine white dunes in the background, cycle past the stunning new De Mond Lodge situated on the edge of the Vlei and return in a clockwise direction to De Hoop Opstal. On Saturday 18 May it’s the 50km with 850m ascent and on Sunday 19 May, the 62km with 800m ascent. The routes are a combination of gravel road, jeep track and singletrack. Each day’s route takes you to a different part of the reserve where you can appreciate the rocky coastlines, large sand dunes, beautiful blue ocean- whale-spotting is a highlight, lowland fynbos and thriving wetlands. Game you’re likely to encounter include Eland, Cape Mountain Zebra, Grey Rhebok and Bontebok. Caracal and Leopard maybe spotted by a lucky few!

The De Hoop Vlei MTB 2024 entry fee of R2 800 per person includes a weekend of pure mountain bike adventure riding in untamed territory, plus a few surprising special additions. Link in bio for more info.
