TORONTO — Longing for a gorgeous set of gams
that reduces onlookers to mouth-gaping silence?

Not everyone is born with great legs reminiscent of
actress Betty Grable, dancer Ginger Rogers or American
gymnast Mary Lou Retton because every person's limbs
are unique, says Guylaine Lanctot, @ Quebec-born doctor
who specializes in the treatment of varicose veins.

After more than 20 years of seeing thousands of
patients limp through life on less-than-adequate limbs,
Lanctot has written a book to help women — and to a
certain extent men — determine the bare facts about
their legs.

How to Have Great Legs at any Age (New Chapter
Press Inc., $9.95) tells readers how to write their own
prescription based on their strengths, weaknesses and
needs.

“Great legs are those that are healthy, strong and
attractive and not too skinny,” Lanctot says, crossing her
long legs.

“Legs can't be great if they're not healthy, and if
you're not healthy, your legs won't be.”

Since 1978, Lanctot has opened clinics in Quebec and
Toronto that specialize in the treatment of varicose veins

unsightly veins that are dilated and unable to carry
blood back to the heart. She has lived in Florida since
1984, where she also has four clinics.
START ASSESSMENT

As a first step to getting great legs, Lanctot's book
recommends that you compile a profile.

Assess your legs by standing naked in front of a
full-length mirror in a brightly lit room. Then answer a

bare facts about legs

list of questions ranging from, “Do I have cellulite?” to,
“Am I pigeon-toed?”

Measure your thighs and calves to see if they're
proportionate, The difference between your thighs and
calves should be between 6/ to 8/ inches.

Finally, examine your skin to see if it sags or there
are any blemishes, scars or varicose veins.

Lifestyle and heredity should also be taken into
consideration, including whether your parents are short
and heavy, tall and slim, short and slight, or tall and
heavy.

Setting your goals and a realistic time frame to
achieve them is next. Lanctot, 46, says the objectives
must be attainable — either through therapy, surgery or
a change in diet, exercise and the way you dress.

For instance, if you come from a family of women
with wide hips and short legs, you may never have
narrow hips and long legs, but you can dress in a way that
will make your hips seem narrower and legs seem longer.

If your profile reveals that you have flat feet, for
instance, your muscles can be repatterned to work to-
gether correctly through physical therapy.

More than half of all women and about 10 per cent of
men get varicose veins, which are largely hereditary,
Lanetot says.

A new technique called sclerotherapy saves patients
from the numerous scars of surgery. It involves injecting
the veins with a chemical solution to close them off.

Lanctot says proper nutrition and exercise are very
important, especially aerobic exercise that helps improve
circulation.

“Fat is enemy No. 1, not just for the legs, but the
whole body,” she says.

cuts stress

By JILL ST. LOUIS

VANCOUVER — Liona
O'Gorman welcomes the in
creased free time that job-
sharing has given her, but
she wasn't quite prepared for
having hey salary cut in half
along with her hours.

O'Gorman, )55, and her
husband haved been trying to
put their finances in order
before he retires in the next
couple of years.

“It (job-sharing) really has
put an extra stress on us,”
she says. “In retrospect, it
probably wasn't the wisest
thing to do financially.”

With the help of Work
Well, a federally funding
program in Victoria, O’Gor-
man arranged the details of
sharing her job as co-ordi-
nator of volunteers for that
city’s hospice program.

WROTE BOOK

Work Well is the creation
of Bruce O'Hara, a counsellor
who has written a book on
how to alter work schedules
to better fit lifestyles without
harming career prospects or
job security.

Job-sharing is not new to
Vietoria, but the two-year-old
program helps people pre-
pare proposals for restruct-
ured work hours that em-
ployers are likely to accept.
O'Hara says the program,
which has had more than 100
clients, is unique in Canada.

He says both workers and
employers can benefit from a
work-option program.

Overloaded employees are
inefficient and prone to error,
he says. In many cases a
flexible approach to work
scheduling enables em-
ployers to keep workers they
would otherwise lose.

“So many of my clients
were under stress because
they were either unemployed
or overloaded. There seemed

to be very few people who’ *

were actually able to get a
balanced workload in their
lives.”
‘LOSE OUT

The ones overloaded with
work often “lose out on the
rest of their lives, whether
that life is family, friends,
hobbies,” O'Hara says.

“We're starting to see a lot
of situations where women
are picking up some of the
same compulsive workaholic

patterns that have been
men’s lot.”

O'Hara says many of his
clients are young women
with small children.

Julia Wallace doesn't have
children, but she says Ker job
as education officer at the
Art Gallery of Greater Vic-
toria was taking up too much
time.

“A lot of my job was even-
ings and weekends as well. I
was working a lot more than
a five-day-a-week job then.”

Wallace, 38, has been in
her current position for 7'/
years. Work Well helped her
set up a four-day week, which
she has worked since Feb-
ruary 1987.

Her one-fifth salary reduc-
tion has gone toward hiring
someone else to do part of
her job.
"1 's a lot better. I can get
involved in other things, and
it gives a bit more of a
healthy perspective on the
different aspects of life,
rather than just a job.”

Sharing her job hasn't
been problem-free, however.

“We've had a few snags in
terms of communication be-
tween the various people in-
volved in programming,”
Wallace says.

O'Hara says more than half
of his clients have their pro-
posals accepted by em-
ployers. But.“there’s a good-
sized minority that get turn-
ed down” or have to submit
revised proposals.

Clients pay $10, the price
of a membership in the non.
profit service.

O'Hara got the idea for
Work Well while acting as an
employment counsellor on
contract with various gov-
ernment departments.

He says that when two or
more people share one full-
time position, salary and
benefits are prorated.

Other work options include
flexible starting and quitting
times; phased retirement,
where employees gradually
reduce their hours; a com-
pressed work week, where
employees work a standard
number of hours in fewer
days; or permanent part
time, with seniority rights,
promotion opportunities,
prorated benefits and rates
of pay comparable to full
time.
