The Rub - Natural Home Remedy Over 100 Years Old

The Rub is an old herbal remedy created by a young teacher way back in 1890. Her grand-daughter, Dorrie Killeen, continues the family tradition of healing with natural remedies using her grandmothers old medical book. She created The Rub for an elderly man who had bad arthritis in his hands, knees, ankles and shoulders. Having used The Rub twice he said he was able to walk up the fields for the first time in three years and that was the discovery of The Rub, 20 years ago. Similar testimonials can be viewed on her blog - dorriekilleentherub.blogspot.com. The Rub is available from local health food shops and selected pharmacies.

Swan around Perth to make the most of a family trip Down Under

My daughter has been living in Perth, Australia for the last year so my husband and I are planning to take a two-week holiday to visit her. She has told us so many wonderful things about Perth and as excited as we are to see her, we can’t wait to explore this fantastic place. We want to fit in all the best sights during our stay so we’d love some recommendations on what we should do and see while there.
