Can Bowenwork™ help me?
By releasing stress at a very deep level, via its calming effect on the Autonomic Nervous System, Bowen sets the scene for the body to heal itself. In contrast to many other hands-on therapies, Bowen does not attempt to force the body to change; rather it asks the body to recognise and make the changes necessary to bring it back to homoeostasis (physiological equilibrium).
Bowen is suitable for all ages, from a baby with colic to an elderly person with arthritis, and there are no known contra-indications.
This remarkable technique can be quick and effective in helping the following:
- Muscular and skeletal problems in neck, shoulder, hip, knees, ankle and back, including sciatica
- Frozen shoulder, tennis and golf elbow, R.S.I. and carpal tunnel
- Whiplash and sports injuries
- Problems with posture and body alignment
- Migraine and recurring headaches
- Bell’s Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease and the difficulties suffered by stroke victims
- Respiratory, bronchial and related conditions such as hayfever and asthma
- Digestive problems such as IBS
- Arthritis
- Hormonal, pregnancy and fertility problems
- Stress management, ME, fatigue and sleep problems.
Bowen can be of assistance in many cases of emotional stress, where relaxation is a prime factor in easing pain and anxiety. It is also often a great help in improving the quality of life for those who are terminally ill.
