25.01.2022 Reviews.... Reviews are great to receive, they help people to see just how Bowen Therapy can help people. I would love for my clients to take 5mins and do a review for how I have helped you with Bowen Therapy or even Access Consciousness Bars etc.... Usually people use Bowen Therapy as a last resort when all else fails. Let’s get the word out about Bowen Therapy, I need your help to do it. So write that review here or on google, share some posts. This will really help. Thanks everyone.

24.01.2022 This actually says it all....

24.01.2022 Jaw clenching, Yep that’s me waking up throughout the night with a tight jaw. Here’s a quick exercise to help.... Get a nice fluffy towel roll it up, lye on your back place towel under your neck and make sure that your head rests on the floor, knees bent to take the pressure of lower back. Place hands on stomach, breath in through mouth for a count of 4 (stomach pushes out) breath out through pursed lips for 8. Do this for 10mins. www.betterbodieswithbowen.com.au

23.01.2022 Movement is medicine! If you're struggling to get your body moving, try Bowen therapy. "The only solution for this ‘un-movement syndrome’ is moving."

23.01.2022 Had your bars run?.... Never heard of it? Want to know more?

22.01.2022 Thinking about Bowen Therapy???? Think no more, this sums it up nicely. Thank you Shelly Toms.

22.01.2022 Pain is an alarm And it occurs when the brain PERCEIVES there to be a threat to the body. This means that if pain is produced it is because the brain BELIEVES that the body is under threat and so the brain creates pain as an alarm for you to do something about the threat. ... So yes pain is produced by the brain, 100% of the time, without any exceptions. But this does not mean that pain is all in your head. Pain is unbelievably real!!

22.01.2022 Reviews.... These help people to understand, how Bowen Therapy can help them, by reading how it’s helped you. So if you haven’t done a review, could you please take 2 minutes to do one. So you can help me to help others see how good they too can feel.

21.01.2022 Reflecting on the past...... They say do what you live and you will never work a day in your life. This is true when thinking of my Bowen business. Life before Bowen for me was many different jobs, sometimes working 2-3 at a time.... My hardest was split shifts at a public school, really hard physical work. If I had a dollar for every time someone said to me how lucky you are to get all those holidays. How wrong they were, this was when our work loaf got really heavy, stripping and sealing floors, climbing ladders doing windows etc. What was life like for you before your current job? Love to know....

21.01.2022 Am I the only one up! I always seem to wake early 5am, 5.30am 6am , never any later, unless I have had a Bowen treatment or had Bars, then I may sleep in, it always makes me feel like I had a deep long meditation, I sleep like a baby. I am a morning person, I love to start the day alone, this is my time. Coffee, feed the animals, check emails and of course check in to see what has happened in the world of Facebook. This is me time, before the house work or the paid work... takes place. How do you like to start your day? After a Bowen or Bars treatment does your sleep pattern alter, do you feel like your quality of sleep is better? www.betterbodieswithbowen.com.au

20.01.2022 How crazy is fashion! Look closely to see how this lady’s feet have been moulded to the shape of her restrictive footwear! This is becoming very common. ... If your foot doesn’t comfortably fit inside the perimeter of your shoe when you place it on top of the shoe (as in the photo on your left) it is not good for you! Also does it bend to allow for natural movement? Our feet are not planks of wood, they need to bend and spread in gait. These problems start in the feet but can end up anywhere in the body.

20.01.2022 If anyone is coming to have a treatment for the first time. I need you to fill out an intake form and also a covid-19 form, You will find the link to both forms under notes. If you could take the time to fill these out prior to your appointment that would be great. Also the link is below. https://form.jotform.com/201488475308865 https://www.shedul.com/assets/covid_au.pdf

17.01.2022 Amazed.... A client a few months back came in feeling crippled. He could get no relief from pain, from a herniated disk in his lower back. He commented that he had this problem once before, and he went physio for a number of weeks. He said in the end they listed him do we n and stretched him.... He wanted to try Bowen this time as he stated the pain from getting this done before was excruciating and he didn’t want to go through it again. It was his first time trying Bowen, I explained what I was going to do, what to expect after treatment, gave him an exercise to do. And I said I would like to see him sometime next week. I said to him to go home see how you go and if you would like to follow up, please ring me Monday and I would book him in. Monday came first call of the day, it was him. He said I don’t know what you did but I am virtually pain free. And that exercise really helped. I’m definitely coming back, I feel awsome. Small moves make big changes....

16.01.2022 Skills ..... Have you ever given a thought to the skills you gained in previous careers, and how they help you in your current career. This got me thinking on how greatful, I am about my secretarial skills for note taking/bookkeeping, and my hospital background, especially in these trying times of Covid-19, at helping to stop the spread of viruses/bacteria etc.... And most importantly the skill from all of these previous jobs I most value was the skill to listen, not only to the client but more importantly to the body. What skills are you grateful for, and how do they help you today? Put them in the comments below we would all be interested in reading them....

10.01.2022 Appreciation! There is no better reward in any job or service, than when a client upon leaving the clinic, says Merry Christmas and I will see you in the New Year, because I really need you. Always great to have it reaffirmed that Bowen Therapy and Access Consciousness Bars are really very beneficial in maintaining a better body.

10.01.2022 Do you feel like your falling apart? Harder to get moving, knees hurt going down stairs or upstairs, big knot you can’t budge between shoulders. Or just plain aches and pains when you get into bed and it stops you from getting to sleep?... www.betterbodieswithbowen.com.au See more

09.01.2022 One reason to get a good nights sleep..... We know that when we sleep it clears the mind and when we don’t sleep properly the brain is merely.. The brain during sleep, clears the waste from the spaces between the cells, if the brain is busy it puts of cleaning or clearing. This waste is called amyloid-beta, my brain is making it now and so is yours. Patients with Alzheimer’s this waste builds up, this is thought to be a key step to developing this terrible disease.... So it is important that we all get good quality sleep, so these basic house keeping functions can occur and prevent the diseases of the mind tomorrow. Bowen Therapy helps to calm the central nervous system, taking the body from flight & fright to rest & repair.

09.01.2022 The plantar fascia Is a piece of strong and thick tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot. It connects the heel bone to the toes, creating the foot's arch. Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the plantar fascia, either through overstretching, overuse or a medical condition.... It can be caused by: playing sports that put stress on the heel bone, like running, dance and aerobics flat-footed or high arches being middle-aged or older being overweight pregnancy spending a lot of time on your feet wearing shoes with poor arch support Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the plantar fascia through overstretching, overuse or a medical condition. Plantar fasciitis is often associated with a heel spur which is a spike of bone poking out from the heel bone, but many people have heel spurs without any pain. Symptoms The main symptom of plantar fasciitis is pain under the heel, which can be dull or sharp like a knife sticking into your foot. The foot sole may ache or burn and your heel may be slightly swollen. The pain is often worse: in the morning, as you take your first steps after prolonged standing or sitting after intense activity Diagnosis To check whether you have plantar fasciitis, your doctor will probably ask you some questions, for example, about your symptoms, the type of work you do and your lifestyle. Also, it's likely they'll perform a physical exam to check the arches of your feet and to see whether there is any redness, swelling, tenderness, stiffness or tightness. An X-ray or ultrasound scan is sometimes needed to rule out other possible causes of heel pain. Bowen Therapy may assist with this condition along with some exercises and strapping.

08.01.2022 Can a scar on your abdomen be the cause of your back pain....... Lower back pain of unknown origin and your c section or hernia repair scar; is there a connection? Yes.... Lower back pain is a common problem with many causes. One of the more common causes may be related to a scar that is left over from a surgical procedure.... There is now growing evidence suggesting that abdominal scars can cause chronic back pain, knee problems and even upper back pain. The International Fascial Congress which meets every two years is filled with the brightest minds in the field of fascia and fascial therapy. Many papers have already been published on this growing problem. Scars that are symptomatic are known as active scars, meaning they are actively causing symptoms or mechanical malfunctions. Many women have discovered that after they had a C-section, they had difficulty straightening up while the incision heals. Scars heal differently on everyone, due to genetics, body mechanics, the quality of the incision and the persons activity level. A minor scar on the outside may hide marked problems underneath it. You may discover the problem a few months post c section if your back suddenly locks up on while bending over a changing table. Others may have different episodes of back, knee, hip or neck pain months or years later. Surgeons have recognized for years that scar formation can be dangerous, especially in the abdominal area, since it can cause problems with the bowel and other organs. There is also growing evidence that many scars can affect the way we walk and move because they are attached not only to organs but to the muscles that help us walk and move. This is where McLaughlin Scar Tissue Practitioners’s come into play, by doing scar tissue therapy on scars, it helps the collagen and blood flow in scar tissue. Even after 1 session there is usually a marked difference in appearance and feel. Don’t let your recent or old scars inhibit your movement. Appointments available by booking only. www.betterbodieswithbowen.com.au

06.01.2022 Maintenance........ After helping clients to resolve a health problem, some ask the question :- how do I stay feeling this way ? The answer is to have regular maintenance Bowen Therapy. Some clients have chronic health problems that can never completely resolve. Regular maintenance Bowen Therapy can help you, to run at optimum performance.... Just like cars needing regular services to run efficiently so do our bodies.

06.01.2022 Scar tissue therapy. No explanation needed.

05.01.2022 Client quote... I don’t know how she does it, but the results were remarkable. I saw Cheree for 3 sessions to help with my sciatica and hip pain, and now I am amazingly pain-free. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get their life back! A client recommendation to their friend. 90 per cent of my clients come by word of mouth. So a big thank you to each every one of my clients for helping me advertise my business, I wouldn’t be where I am today without you.

05.01.2022 Back to Basics..... Modern life could be a pain in the back. Poor posture, injuries, genetic conditions and or disease, as well as factors like age, obesity, job conditions and the fact we are leading an increasingly sedentary lifestyle can affect the risk of having back pain. Back pain can be caused by simply twisting or lifting and straining a ligament or muscle. Other causes could be stress fractures, curvature of the spine or disk herniation/bulging disk. ... And as we get older cause could be degeneration in the spine or osteoporosis. There are a number of options in dealing with back pain, the rise of spinal surgery if increasing every year. Bowen therapy maybe an effective tool in dealing with back pain. It is gentle and non invasive, a therapist would recommend you have 3 treatments ideally spaced 5 to 10 days apart, and depending on how your body responded and how long you have had the condition would be a deciding factor as to how regular you came for treatment after. Appointments can be made by phoning 0413243828 www.betterbodieswithbowen.com.au

04.01.2022 Carpal Tunnel Syndrome CTS is a painful condition of the hand and fingers caused by compression of a major nerve where it passes over the carpal bones through a passage at the front of the wrist, alongside the flexor tendons of the hand. It may be caused by repetitive movements over a long period, or by fluid retention, and is characterized by sensations of tingling, numbness, or burning. What are the symptoms?... Carpal tunnel syndrome can cause tingling, numbness, weakness, or pain in the fingers or hand. Some people may have pain in their arm between their hand and their elbow. Symptoms most often occur in the thumb, index finger, middle finger, and half of the ring finger. If you have problems with your other fingers but your little finger is fine, this may be a sign that you have carpal tunnel syndrome. A different nerve gives feeling to the little finger. You may first notice symptoms at night. You may be able to get relief by shaking your hand. How is it treated? Mild symptoms usually can be treated with home care. You can: - Stop activities that cause numbness and pain. Rest your wrist longer between activities. - Ice your wrist for 10 to 15 minutes 1 or 2 times an hour. - Try taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to relieve pain and reduce swelling. - Wear a wrist splint at night. This takes pressure off your median nerve. - Bowen Therapy May assist

04.01.2022 Bowen helping the body to bloom...

01.01.2022 Why do I do what I do? It’s a great feeling to be able to help people. Maybe it’s that 82yr old, that can’t turn her neck to the left. Or the 1mth old baby that won’t settle. The builder with the herniated disk. Or this lady who had a hard time moving from sciatica.... I myself am amazed at how something so gentle can be so effective. This is Jenny’s review, she was a first time client who had never had Bowen before. This makes my job worthwhile.
