25.01.2022 Gary is now working from Pascoe Vale on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays ...taking a break for the first two weeks of August but back on Tuesday the 20th August 2019...

24.01.2022 Dear Customers and patients, I am still open for now..I have put in place safety features. these include having 15 and 30 minute gaps between patients so there will be no-one in the waiting room between patients. this also allows me to do extra cleaning between patients such as wiping down surfaces with disinfectant.. As always, I change all sheets between patients. I always use fresh disposable face hole covers on each patient. As always I thoroughly wash my hands between pa...tients. If you are not feeling well then please cancel your appointment. I will also wear a face mask as an extra precaution..Inside and Outside of the clinic I am also following all guidelines issued by the federal and state governments. The associations I belong to are the BTFA and the ATMS and both have issued their own guidelines which I am adhering to.. I wish everyone to stay safe and healthy.. See more

21.01.2022 Bowen Therapy worked for me!

18.01.2022 here is the long answer as to what is Bowen therapy and What is Fascia - Bowen Therapy is a cross fibre technique that initiates a reaction in the subcutaneous structure called Fascia. Under our skin there are no spaces, except the windpipe that is held open by cartilage for the purpose of breathing. Potential spaces exist such as the vagina or the bowel that have the capacity to expand and contract when required. There is space between the skin and the muscles, and the orga...ns and the muscles, which is filled by fascia. Fascia is the subcutaneous interstitial sea through which hormones, nutrients, water and minerals are distributed around the body in response to the moment-by-moment requirements of homeostasis. Understanding how fascia works is the key to understanding the subcutaneous molecular biology that occurs during a Bowen treatment. Fascia is a protein substance that closely resembles the white of an egg and is made up of proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans. If the egg is fresh the egg white has a plump appearance and when the egg is old the egg white appears to run freely in the pan, coating the pan with a thin clear layer of protein. Fascia follows the same aging pattern and it behaves similarly to egg white albumin. When we are healthy and young fascia has a plump appearance that prevents lines from forming in the skin. Aging is a dehydration process affecting the way the body manages the lipid layer of the cell membrane and how the fascia hydrates. Fascia is also made up of collagen, elastin and reticulin fibres that look like fibre glass fibres, a mat of thin strands that overlap. If we move the skin gently over specific areas, across the muscles rather than along muscle fibres, as is done in massage therapies, fascia changes consistency. Fascia is thixotropic and this ability to change consistency influences tensegrity between the muscles, bones and connective tissue. During this process the body has an opportunity to bring in water and move fascia into or out of an area that may have been glued due to friction, injury or, most often, by heat. The process of cooking the egg protein allows us to see the protein molecules fusing together and the fibres binding into a solid mass. This is what happens when we overheat our bodies or they are injured in some way. Any heat that turns our body pink is gluing fascia and blocking channels for hydration in the body.
