23.01.2022 Last call to learn Bowen Therapy to treat your family - this coming weekend! When my kids were small I found having this skill of Bowen Therapy to help treat their sprains, illnesses, headaches, school stress, worry, sports injuries and more invaluable. Just knowing that "mum could help" gave the kids a feeling of safety and comfort.... I've made this course to be as simple as possible with step by step videos and workbooks to help you through. Bowen is quite simple to do - you just need to know the specifics of HOW to do it correctly and the best places to 'do the move'. Another thing this class is good for is SELF TREATMENT. There's nothing worse than just realising that you have "put your back out" and not knowing what to do next - besides pain killers...Catching the pain before it gets out of hand is a wonderful tool to help you through. During this class I'll teach you the basics - A full Body Balance How to realign your hips and pelvis Ease headaches Treat shinsplints Ease breathing problems and even asthma Ease sore throats and neck pain Relieve shoulder and neck restriction Plus lots of tips I've learned over the past 30 years of helping people overcome their pain and stress. I'll be running this class at Banora Point, NSW this coming weekend 20 and 21st February The hours will be 9am - 5pm Qld Time The cost is $300 for the weekend Tea, coffee and snacks are provided CALL ME OR MESSAGE ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS
18.01.2022 What is the Psoas Muscle I'm usually prattling on about! The Iliopsoas is comprised of 2 muscles and sometimes 3! There are the Psoas Major and Iliacus (thus the word blend making it Iliopsoas) plus Psoas Minor... The Psoas major is attached to the spine just behind the diaphragm, runs all the way down the lower spine ending up inside the hip joint (the join where you flex your leg). The Iliacus is on the inside of your pelvis and is shaped like a fan also ending up inside the thigh bone. The Psoas minor is weirdly only present in some people and runs over the lower spine. But what does it do? The Iliopsoas begins it's day when we do. When we are upright it *Keeps us upright when standing *Keeps us sitting straight *Lifts our leg *Bends our spine forward *Turns the leg outward *And lifts it outward *Tilts the pelvis forward and *Stabilises the spine If the Iliopsoas becomes tight or swollen it will cause pain that can be felt in the lower and mid-back, pelvis, upper butt, thigh, genitals and groin. The Iliopsoas is the muscle which literally holds us up as well as working in practically all positions and movements (even the arms and legs) thus it is very open to becoming overloaded. The Iliopsoas is just not made for us to be in the upright position! Another one of those Human Errors....... How do we fix it? With Bowen Therapy and Stretches. I go into the Psoas conglomerate in more depth via email. If you'd like to receive regular emails let me know via messenger or comment below.
11.01.2022 How does something as gentle as Bowen Therapy work? Tom Bowen (the creator of Bowen Therapy) was an osteopath - which is a healing modality that is very similar to Bowen Therapy - it also accesses the innate intelligence of the body to heal itself. The gentle moves over the muscles, ligaments and acupuncture points release a vibration throughout the body - often using the fascia as a conduit - allowing your own ability to heal in the most profound way.... Your body knows how to heal itself - that becomes obvious when you cut yourself or break a bone - your bone regrows without any outside help as your bleeding stops and the skin grows over. This can take a bit of time and can also benefit from some outside help sometimes (like setting the bone correctly first or sewing up a large wound) But it is very rarely an instant fix ...... We are human and have been programmed to "fix", and we need it to be done...now! The medical profession answers to this need with medication and other quick fixes - but the equilibrium and intelligence of our body is compromised by circumventing the real problem. I say this because - sadly - I have a few clients who's health, movement and life has been severely impacted by these drugs.. They have a place and I've also used them when needed but be aware of long term use and question everything...
08.01.2022 This time last year I had so many PLANS! - I was going to do courses, talks and shake things up.......and then.....well - you know what happened. So this year I only have one plan - There has been interest shown for me to do another Bowen Therapy Workshop!... Basic Bowen Therapy Course will be over one weekend and is an introduction to Bowen. I've created it to be used on common body problems for you and your family. You will learn: How to do a Bowen move perfectly - the most important item on the list How to do a full Body Balance, Upper, Mid and Lower spine How to ease a painful back - upper and lower back pain Asthma and respiratory relief Period pain Sore throat treatments Shoulder and arm pain Headache relief and more.... You'll receive a manual and videos for guidance - I'm always on the other end of the phone to answer any questions I consider Bowen Therapy to be an essential part of my First Aid kit - and would love to share with you the knowledge I've gained over 20 years. The cost - $300 for the weekend The place - I have a huge room at my place at Banora Point - weekend traffic isn't too bad to get back over the border - that's if it's still closed. If this become problematic - I'll look for somewhere on the Gold Coast Date - I'd like to set the date for next month - 20-21st Feb Message me if you are interested or call/text on 0428401927
