One female business owner wants to celebrate hardworking local women and is inviting them in for a free therapy session.

March 8 is International Women's Day, so Jana Lalikova from Perfect Therapy in The Reeks Gateway would like to offer a free 30 minute session between the hours of 9am to 6pm.

Her clinic offers physiotherapy and neuromuscular therapy treatments and is the only clinic in Kerry to offer hydrotherapy together with electrotherapy, heat/cold therapy, lymphatic drainage, scar therapy and other complimentary treatments.

In the past she has raised funds for the Irish Cancer Society, a school in South Moravia damaged by a tornado, local Ukrainian refugees, the frontline workers during COVID-19, and MS Ireland.

"This time we have a treat for all ladies," Jana told the Killarney Advertiser.

"We all know how amazing women are juggling careers and family life and how often they put their health and well-being last to care for others. And it is often women who suffer from musculoskeletal problems like back pain or neck pain, issues with hips, knees or ankles, sore or stiff shoulders, wrists and hands.

"What we are offering is a 30 minute session where you can avail of massage, hydrotherapy bath, exercise programme or musculoskeletal assessment. We would like to offer this for free as a thank you gift to those who have been supporting us over the years and also expand the invitation to those who haven’t been in our clinic yet. Please come and treat yourself, and bring along your mum, nan, aunt, sister, daughter, mother-in-law, girlfriend or colleague from work."

She added that booking a slot is essential. Ring 064 6622685 and mention International Women's Day.
