Do you suffer from aches and pains in your back, leg, pelvis or neck. This may be caused by bad posture, tension, muscle spasm, arthritis or something else that could be cured or alleviated by a qualified osteopath. Visit Martin K Davies on-line osteopathic surgery for information and advice.

If you require horns and other materials in the USA, try the Boone Trading Company or this one Hide and Fur.com is good for antlers |
|
Tools for stickmaking and carving - try Axminster Tool Centre - huge selection of hand and power tools. Great delivery and after sales service - I can personally recommend them! |
|
Pictures to help with carving are often dificult to find - my friends Carl Church and Dave Hornbrook are both international award winning taxidermists and have some fantastic pictures on their websites - great for close up shots of birds and other wildlife subjects. If you still can't find anything, try Google images - just type the name of the bird or animal you want and you should get many pictures to choose from - some may even be useful! |
|
American customers may be interested in a website selling traditional Irish sticks and lots of other things with Irish connections too. I don't normally advertise other stick sites but this is a bit different and not really competition! |
|
Hayden Boer Goats is an American site about breeding and selling goats, working Border Collies and making crooks. |
|
Carving and turning tools and timber can be found at the Snainton Woodturning Centre which I use personally - it's only a half-hour drive from my home and I get most of my timber supplies from them. Good stocks of British timbers - lime, sycamore, beech, oak, ash etc - and an increasing stock of exotic timbers. |

For top quality Bed and Breakfast in Helmsley I can recommend The Carlton Lodge, Redroofs B+B. The Feathers Hotel I always ask for customer feedback if they stayed in Helmsley and these two establishments are very highly rated. |
|
Helmsley is full of small, top quality retailers often selling individually crafted items and the kinds of purchases you can't make in other shopping centres and high streets elsewhere. Here are just a few of them I can personally recommend:
|
|
Oldstaff Bespoke Leathers make brillaint handcrafted leatherwork items - particularly gunslips and rifle and shotgun accessories. Based in North Yorkshire but will ship anywhere! |
|
For Market Stalls like the one I use at shows try Nichol Industries in the UK. |
