— Roger Moult and the RHINOS
For almost twenty years, I have suffered debilitating cramps. Generally, they strike at night, after a long day of being on my feet, treating clients, or at sports tournaments. Frequently episodes have lasted two or three hours. The pain has been excruciating, with muscle spasms and micro-trauma, causing discomfort for several days.
My GP told me that, aside from magnesium, not much helps, and that I would just have to live with this situation. He neglected to tell me that anti hypertensive medication would make the situation much worse! He didn’t know that a diet with moderate to high sugar levels would also make things worse, and the cruel irony was, his recommendation that I try a commercial sports drink would expose me to even more sugar thus worsening the situation.
At this point, with the cramps becoming a nightly occurrence, and long periods spent in hot showers trying to bring the muscles into a relaxed state, I was exhausted and distressed.
I tried all kinds of remedies, both allopathic, and natural, to no avail. Nothing made more than a transient difference. Then I began the detox process and noticed on the nights that I had severe cramp, I had also eaten chocolate with my coffee. So I reduced my sugar intake. No sweetened foods after lunch. There was an improvement!
Crampade
Then, in November two years ago, I was at a Sports Medicine conference and during the break, I encountered Crampade for the first time. I was impressed with the passion of the inventor. I was impressed by the science and research we discussed, and came home with a generous amount of product to try for myself.
Of course, the theory was great, that wasn’t unique! The formulation is. But the proof of any product lies in its usefulness.
From the first time I took it, Crampade was spectacularly different! For me, the cramps stopped within five minutes of me taking it. This has been consistent over the last eighteen months. Every time I have taken Crampade, I have experienced relief, usually within three to five minutes. To have a product such as this has been a game changer for me.
But, Crampade isn’t just good for cramp. It also provides electrolytes lost through dehydration.
Sportspeople
It helps sportspeople perform better for longer. This is particularly true for Masters level sports people. It also aids recovery in tournament situations, and helps with decision making.
Because Crampade is a powder, in a sachet, it is really convenient to use. It is a measured dose, unlike many other products on the market. A sachet or two in your sports bag, or wallet, and you have it with you for every situation.
Convenient
Crampade is convenient to use, because on sachet taken prior to competition provides enough electrolytes for the day. There is no need for alternating water and a sports drink, the focus simply becomes drinking water during the game time.
Crampade requires only a small amount of water to deliver electrolytes, reducing the bloated feeling, and meaning it can be taken immediately before play. This is also a major advantage for those who suffer night cramps, reducing the need to wake a short while after taking it.
It is an occasional use product – you only take it when you need it.
The formulation is alkaline, helping reduce lactic acid.
The inclusion of pyridoxine is especially valuable for pregnancy. Because it is an electrolyte formulation, it is beneficial for those suffering morning sickness. Clients using the product report feeling better sooner.
Really, there is a reason for everyone to consider Crampade as their preferred choice, for hydration, cramps, sports performance, and post celebration recovery.
I love that Crampade was created from the benefit of scientific research, but I love that it is fundamentally a supplement. There are no negative side effects, and that is highly unusual.
Cost wise, Crampade is less than half the cost of other products on the market.

You Nicki Cooke are more precious than gold!
I love this photo of Nicki and Declan with the beautiful paintings by Leeanne.
Nicki thank you for being an amazing friend for over 20 years. Thank you for going above and beyond in treating Declan’s chronic pain. And for all the hours and hours of research you have done to help him when we have that gut feeling that something else was going on… and it was! Thank you for helping me through some of the toughest times in my life. Thank you for praying with/for me when everything was so overwhelming. Thank you for teaching me it’s ok to say no. It’s ok to question what is going on. Thank you for reminding me how strong I am. Thank you for all your cheekiness! Oh the things you say and the reactions Declan gives are priceless. You Nicki Cooke are seriously more precious than gold!

I would recommend Jason
Jason was very friendly, knowledgeable and had an understanding of the time constraints necessary for returning to sport and work after injury. Best of all the treatment and rehabilitation suggested by Jason cured the shoulder injury.

Lisa really knows!
Absolutely incredible!! Lisa was able to work through/undo some long standing tension points in my hips and lats and neck. I am so so thankful to see her today – I didn’t realise how stiff I had become. Lisa really knows how the body works and was so kind to share her knowledge!
Thank you so so much!

Hey, this is amazing.
Many years ago, I had a frozen shoulder and it never really healed to 100% capacity. Upon starting bodybuilding again this year, my shoulder became aggravated and painful during training and even doing normal everyday actions. I felt frustrated not being able to progress in training and having to constantly adjust the angle of my shoulder/arm even doing the simplest of things like closing a door behind me.
From the very first session with Nicki I experienced a release and gained more freedom of movement in the shoulder joint. A few months in and my training is progressing, I am free of the constant pain and I can close a door without having to angle my shoulder ‘just right’! It’s when doing the simplest of acts with no pain that I realised, hey, this is amazing.
It’s not only the physical improvements that I keep coming back to Nicki and Steve, it’s the honest to goodness love and care Nicki has for her ‘family’, her clients. She absolutely cares about you and will do everything in her power to help you become the best you can be. A healer, a humanitarian, a go-getter…Nicki is the one you will want in your corner to help you succeed in your rehab, sport or fitness goals.

Nicki “will fix it”.
Your impression of the facilities? New up-to-date techniques and equipment. The environment is clean and well presented. The staff are friendly and helpful.
Were your expectations met by the therapist, the office staff, and the facilities? Yes, I feel comfortable and relaxed in Nicki’s care, knowing that Nicki “will fix it”. She is an amazing lady.
Would you recommend this Therapist to a friend? Yes
Nicki worked on my back and neck so that I could go on my adventure. The pressure on my neck felt quite strong but it released well. My neck is still holding up well even after my outback trip.
Huge thank you to Nicola Cooke from IC Sports Therapies! Amazing results after lymphatic fluid drainage massage today! D. passed out from pain yesterday 9/10 he said.. now after the massage he can smile and says it’s 5/10!!

Lisa has been a revelation!
Lisa has been a revelation- As an ex gymnast who received many soft tissue injuries, she applies her education/training and thinks outside the square to treat my injuries. Lisa with her lovely smile is keen to improve her clients wellbeing with followup calls, exercise and movement programs put in place. The results have been amazing and by managing my problems with regular visits my issues have subsided. I strongly recommend Lisa.

Lisa has an incredible knowledge of body mechanics. I look forward to her massage therapy each time I visit. I have had hundred’s of massages in the past but feel that Lisa is the best at identifying the problem areas, and then working to fix them. I am a full-time nurse, on my feet all day, and see my time with Lisa as an investment, not only in my health and well-being, but in the longevity of my career. I highly recommend her.

I was 50% better after the first treatment!
I suffered crippling back pain 3 months ago to the point where I could’t work and my usual physio and chiro treatments didn’t work. I went to see Lisa Barnes. After the first treatment I was 50% better and back at work. After the second treatment I was 90 % better. I now see Lisa once a month and am pain free. It’s small investments to maintain my health and sanity. Thanks so much Lisa!
SofieIC Sports Therapies21/03/2019
I walked out pain free!
I recently attended IC Sports Therapies for a shoulder complaint. Lisa Barnes a Remedial Massage Therapist treated me for my complaint. She was very friendly and asked relevant questions to assess my injury. Lisa made me feel comfortable and cared about the amount of pressure during the treatment. Lisa’s treatment worked very well to the point I walked out pain free. Lisa gave me stretches and exercises to do at home to help keep me pain free. My experience with Lisa Barnes was very rewarding, and the results were better than expected.

You helped me with those pesky plantar fasciitis and ITB issues
Thanks Nicki for helping me to prepare for Ultra Trail Australia Pace 22. With only weeks before the event, you helped me with those pesky plantar fasciitis and ITB issues (love Shockwave Therapy!) I beat my goal time and had an amazing time doing it. Bring on next year!
Just a shout out to this great team. Always friendly & caring. Thanks for taking care of me. Nicki knows her stuff (as I’m sure the others do too) & came highly recommended – you can’t beat word of mouth recommendations. (Thanks John M. ) Special people – if you need any help with injuries that other professionals are giving you the run around about, book an appointment here. Thanks again. J x

Very happy with the treatments I have received from Nicki. She is thorough and very knowledgable in her area.
Penne McWestleighIC Sports Therapies05/03/2018
Very impressed by the methodical, conscientious and caring approach
I came for a massage to help me with everyday twinges and some relaxation. Before my first massage I filled in a form that took my history. When I saw Lisa she went through the form with me, asked a few more questions about any problems I was having and what I was hoping to achieve and explained how the session would proceed. Throughout the massage she checked on my comfort and explained what she was doing. I had a follow-up text afterwards to see how I was feeling. How was the massage? It was fantastic.
Since then I’ve been back twice to see Lisa, including to help me with an injury.
I’ve been very impressed by the methodical, conscientious and caring approach, Lisa and IC Sports Therapies take.

Better than anyone else I have seen
Your impression of the facilities?
“This is my first visit to your practice and I was warmly welcomed by Steve who offered me a glass of water, or a cup of tea!
I felt very relaxed and hopeful that my aches and pains would be considered thoughtfully – a very calming atmosphere.
It was DK who told me and my husband about you, knowing my own problems. He was blown away Nicki by the difference you have made to his mobility.
I look forward to you being able to help me also to regain my own mobility.”
Were your expectations met by the therapist, the office staff, and the facilities?
“They were indeed by all the above mentioned
Nicki found more knots and nobbles in the affected areas better than anyone else I have seen.
A magical touch. It was the best massage I have ever experience. There are no bruises and I feel my body respond to the massage by loosening up a little. The pain, of course, is still felt, but I know that will be reduced over the next few visits.
Many thanks indeed !!”
Best sports massage therapy service I have been to! Great service, great people and great facilities! They have your best interest at heart and will take the time to see you get the results you are after!

The convenience of having my massage after hours (5:00pm appt) was priceless, and Lisa was very informative about everything she was doing, which eased my mind.

Three generations trust Nicki to help
Nicki came to the rescue for my daughter with severe disability. She had been placed in the ‘too-hard basket’ for many disability therapists but Nicki saw the potential and wanted to help relieve her pain. She took the time to build trust and now my daughter shows such excitement when she arrives for treatment and points Nicki to where it hurts most. Now grandmother, mother & daughter all rave about Nicki and the work that she does. Outstanding results with unrivalled compassion & kindness.

Back to my best
I had injured my hamstring playing soccer, and was definitely a little distraught thinking of the games I will be missing as a result. I went to see Nicki thanks to a beaming recommendation from a friend and although I walked in with a heavy heart, I left feeling as light as a feather bursting with excitement to play again. That same day I ended up training with my team without any problems whatsoever. I honestly have no words to describe it other than simply magic.

Soccer and skiing without any problems
After undergoing major knee reconstruction, I believed I would never play soccer again. When a friend recommended Nicki, I was reluctant at first to reconsider playing. Now, I’m going really well! Have had no major issues, playing soccer and skiing without any problems with legs since beginning of the year.

Mums and Bubs Pilates
I have been doing a Mums and Bubs Pilates class with Colin and it is great! We have fun and exercise at the same time, something I would never have believed possible until I started this class. My almost 3 year old plays happily while my almost 1 year old stays in the class with me. Colin has magic baby skills and can often be seen holding my little girl after lulling her to sleep while instructing us mums. He tailors the classes perfectly depending on the mood of the small people and his happy and relaxed approach makes it a stress-free time for everyone. I would highly recommend this class for anyone who wants a full body work out or for anyone who has a small child and hasn’t found a class that suits their nap times 🙂

Plantar fasciitis for the past 8 years
I have had plantar fasciitis for the past 8 years or so and I was really coming to my wits end with the discomfort and the pain. I just by chance mentioned this to Nicki, who was able to reassure me that she could remedy this for me. I have been to see her 4 times and in that time, I can say that my feet are so close to being normal that I am so ecstatic about it I want to tell the world, Hey try this lady!!! I would highly recommend Nicki to any of my friends and family.

Helped me recover from a knee reconstruction
Nicki really helped me recover from a knee reconstruction last year which I seriously believed would never allow me to able to play soccer again. However after just a few sessions I was able to begin to run again and ended up playing the majority of the following season. She gave me the self confidence to go back to sport and made sure my leg and muscles were at the condition to go back to playing a high contact sport. I would probably still not be playing sport today without Nicki’s help, would and do definitely recommend her for injury treatment!

Nicki does incredible work, she has worked her magic on myself and my family and has us back up and active very quickly. She really knows her profession and gets to the root cause quickly. I highly recommend her work for all muscle, tendon injuries and any rehabilitation needed. She operates a number of rungs above the rest in her field. She plays at the pro level in sports and other injuries. Try her and you will see for yourself.

Over 18 months of back pain and sciatica
Following a recommendation from a friend, I went to see Nicki after being messed around by chiropractors and wrongly diagnosed by other medical specialists. After 6 intensive sessions I am now back doing things that I couldn’t do for more than 18 months of struggling with back pain and sciatica due to muscle spasm. At my first visit, Nicki pin-pointed my problem and following an hour of intensive treatment I was able to walk mostly normally again and even do light exercise on the treadmill. I still have days where I get muscle spasm but Nicki showed me ways I can ease this with simple exercises that will keep me going until I can visit her for more intensive treatment if I need it, and I have the confidence to get out and do things now, as I know that if needed then Nicki is only a phone call away. I have recommended Nicki to lots of friends and relatives and will spread the word to others who I can see will benefit from her help. I am not being paid or offered any other incentives to say this about IC Sports Therapies.

A very big thanks to Nicki, if it wasn’t for her skills and experience half the (Indoor Cricket) teams would not have made it on court.

Never felt so comfortable before.
I have been seeing Nicki for the last few weeks for back and leg pain. Never in my life have I ever felt so comfortable with a therapist before. I enjoy coming back every week and can not recommend her enough!
Went for my first appt with Nicki today after 3 months of Physio and chiro appts that haven’t helped my back pain in the slightest but after an hour with Nicki I walked out feeling a lot less sore and confident that I’ve finally found someone willing and able to help!
After suffering back problems since I was 12 (over 15 years) and going through the usual drama of GP to physiotherapist and back to heavy duty painkillers, I was at the point where I was considering surgery and possibly unable to carry my own children while pregnant. I had not slept for 3 months due to constant debilitating pain and I couldn’t feel the back of one of my legs.
Within a few sessions, Nicki had me pain free, with normal movement – and most of all, I was confident of the treatment and what effect it would have on my health.
I have been to many physicians in my time with injuries and Nicki is the only one that has made me feel positive, hopeful and assured of the outcome of my treatment. Nicki and her team always do the best by the patient and they truly live by their motto – easing the patient’s pain is truly their pleasure!
We have been going to Nicki for many years… not only does she attend to your physical aches and pains with instant relief and improvement but she cares about you as a person, which is so nice.
The IC team… Nicki, Steve and Cath are great people.

Compassionate and caring
After 18 months of “medical drama” which includes three major surgeries, two minor surgical procedures and countless doctors, surgeons and specialists, it is wonderful to find a practice that treats its clients as complete human beings, rather than just a bundle of issues to be fixed. Nicky and her team are compassionate and caring, and strive to treat and heal not only the body, but the mind and spirit along with it.

Treats the root cause of problems rather than the symptoms
Nicki’s knowledge of the muscular make up of the human body is incredible – she treats the root cause of the problems rather than the symptoms, which has meant that I have not missed a single day of cricket for the last 3 years.
(Updated 28/7/16) …and ten years later, I still haven’t missed a day of cricket due to injury!
