I have two builder’s planks (wooden) outside, abandoned by our builders about a year ago. 
 
Free to good home – size: 3.4m long, 22 cm wide, 4 cm thick.  
 
Anyone can come and pick them up from our drive anytime.
 
Cheers,

Some of you already know that I recently qualified as an Ear Wax Removal Clinician using Microsuction.  Now that I have my qualification, I would like a week of further practice and thought there’s no better way of getting volunteers than asking my fellow Great Coxwell residents!
 
What is Microsuction?
 
Microsuction is a safe and effective treatment where ear wax is removed using a compact suction device.  A microscopic camera is used to get a clear view inside the patient's ear to identify the extent of the problem.  The low pressure suction device is then used in conjunction with the camera to gradually and carefully remove earwax from the canal.  The device used reduces the risk of damage being caused to the patient's ear canal or ear drum as a result of the procedure.

Please only get in touch if you feel your ears could be blocked by wax and you are prepared to oil your ears 4-5 days before your appointment. I will be working as a mobile clinician so I will be coming to your home to perform the procedure.
 
So, if you’d like your ears checked, and the ear wax removed, if it shows to be a problem, then please do contact me :-
