24.01.2022 My journey with Bowen Therapy began in 2006. I would visit my naturopath who would treat me with a gentle and effective way to ease any general aches and pains that I had. It was not massage, nor was the treatment forceful in nature and it actually made me feel calm and relaxed. Afterwards, I felt I could move more freely and my aches had disappeared. This is how I experienced Bowen therapy.... This then led me down the path of wanting to learn Bowen therapy myself, so I too could help others feel better.

24.01.2022 It's common for clients to make this statement when they come for a follow up appointment a week later. A welcoming side effect of Bowen, particularly if they haven't been getting the best sleep. When we have good quality sleep, we can manage our days better.

22.01.2022 This seems fairly common....

22.01.2022 Have a great day!

21.01.2022 Having indoor plants dramatically improves the air quality of your home. They clean the air we breathe, some can help absorb Electromagnetic Radiation/Frequency (EMF) and they brighten up your living space. Cactus, Spider plant, Snake plant, Aloe vera, Ivy, Peace lily are good examples. https://mayhealthcare.com/10-best-plants-for-absorbing-emf/

20.01.2022 Good quality sleep is essential for our health and wellbeing. To help get a better night sleep: - Exercise during the day, - No caffeine after midday;... - Stay off screens at least 1 hour before bed; - Dim all lights in your home near bed time; - Have a warm shower/bath before bed; - Have a cup of herbal tea such as chamomile before bed.

20.01.2022 Sometimes we need a reminder to look after ourselves. Hope this helps!

19.01.2022 Spring has sprung in the southern hemisphere and with it, the arrival of hay fever. Can Bowen therapy help? "Sessions to target the symptoms are aimed at improv...ing your breathing and clearing mucus trapped in your nasal passages as well as helping the eyes to become clearer and settle your throat." With thanks to Border Natural Therapies Wodonga.

19.01.2022 A worthwhile read about how masks can trigger trauma survivors. Blue Knot Foundation suggests the following strategies: limiting the amount of mask time and inc...reasing it gradually, decorating your mask, breathing slower and deeper, playing soothing music, meditating, walking, taking baths and staying connected to friends. As of 3 August 2020, all Victorians must wear a face covering when they leave home, no matter where they live. The Victorian Department of Health and Human Services has advised it accepts trauma as a valid reason for people to not wear a mask.

19.01.2022 Wanting to create a positive change in your life? Simply start with one small thing...

18.01.2022 We've been thinking of you Melbourne! Good luck to all the small businesses that are re-opening and to everyone going back to work. And to those that are able to be reunited with their family in Melbourne!! I feel for you, it's been tough.... HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!

18.01.2022 This could relate to any area in your life. It's interesting when you look back and see how things are linked, when at first glance there is no relevance. I have definitely brought seeds from my previous occupation into what I currently do. My previous occupation in office work gave me the computer and admin skills for the background work in my Bowen therapy business. This has allowed me to focus my attention on my Bowen skills and my clients.

17.01.2022 It is not uncommon for clients to fall asleep during a Bowen treatment. The body loves to be able to "switch-off", and Bowen therapy helps that to happen. www.larabowentherapy.com.au

16.01.2022 Medical professionals around the world are choosing Bowen Therapy. Bowen is progressively becoming recognized as an invaluable complementary therapy. We intervi...ewed an array of medical professionals who utilize Bowen Therapy in ‘These Two Hands’ documentary, including, doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, midwives, pharmacists, to name a few. We were privileged to hear their amazing stories and how they have helped so many by using Bowen Therapy. In addition, they all highlighted the need for broader community awareness and acceptance as a stand-alone therapy to be integrated with orthodox medicine. The landscape of medicine around the world has been slowly progressing toward a more holistic and individualized approach to healing. This has been due to increase awareness with access to information through social media, limitations of orthodox medicine, cultural ties with traditional healing, a growing trend towards holistic and preventative medicine. This approach to healthcare incorporates a patient’s mind, spirituality, and sense of community into the healing process. Integrative medicine has been typically well received and the demand has been steadily increasing in primary hospitals in many countries in Europe, the USA, and Asia. Countries like China have led the way over the millennia, by incorporating specific healing foods, herbs, acupuncture, medical Chi Gong, and more hospitals. Currently, there is a great demand to integrate allopathic and traditional healing in developing countries. Many governments such as South Africa and India are moving forward with formal integration, undertaking the necessary research and policy changes. There is ‘huge potential’ for Bowen Therapy to be integrated into the mainstream health care system, in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and medical clinics. ‘These Two Hands’ documentary project continues to be invaluable in helping to raise awareness and contribute to the growth of this incredible modality. We greatly appreciate your ongoing support. Please help us to continue to spread the word by engaging with us online, sharing our posts on Facebook and Instagram, and getting your connections to like our page. Thank you to the following Medical professionals for sharing your passion and insights: Andrea Neale, Dr. Jaimini Raniga, Eleanor Oyston, Georgi Ilchev, Maurao Murganti, and Merrin Wake.

09.01.2022 Here's a home remedy that uses Lectric Soda crystals to help reduce swelling from an injured knee. Lectric soda can be bought from a chemist, and needs to be in crystal form (not the powdered form). Simply wrap a few handfuls of the crystal in a handkerchief or put into a stocking and place over swollen area of the knee and secure with glad wrap around the knee. Leave on for a few hours ( 3- 4 hours) or overnight. ... If you have sensitive skin don't leave on overnight. This can be done every second day. Bowen Therapy can also help with knee problems. Note: Please consult you medical practitioner if you haven't already done so to diagnose your injury. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfbsTn_QVM8 Home remedy for helping reduce swelling

07.01.2022 That’s why Bowen works so well. Nothing is forced. The body will use what it needs.

06.01.2022 Does your child have a sore back from carrying a heavy school bag? Do they have neck tension or headaches? Are they suffering from anxiety/stress? Or bedwetting problems?... If any of these sounds like someone in your family, then maybe it's time to give Bowen therapy a try? Benefits from Bowen therapy include: - Pain relief - Better sleep -Improved immune response -Stress relief -Improved digestion -Reduced muscular tension -Calming of the nervous system www.larabowentherapy.com.au

05.01.2022 I love the work that I do. It is very rewarding and I feel privileged that I get to help others in their health journey. When people feel better they can live a better life. It could be the neck pain that they had which has disappeared after their treatment . Or the young baby who had been on medication for reflux and possible exploratory surgery, was able to get off all medication and avoid surgery.... Or the person who had trouble walking up steps because of knee pain, could now walk pain-free and described his healing as miraculous. But the body is miraculous in its everyday activity, and is more powerful than we give it credit for. Bowen simply allows the body to get out of its own way, gives it the nudge it needs to stimulate the body to heal itself and correct the imbalance. I love the effect that Bowen has on the body.

03.01.2022 It's only 7 weeks till Christmas!! Are you looking for a gift for someone for Christmas? We have gift certificates available all year round.... Call Sue to arrange to pick one up. Ph. 0402 101 547

03.01.2022 When clients come to me for Bowen therapy, I generally look at the body as a whole unit..... because it is. Even though you may be experiencing a sore lower back, other areas of the body may need attention also. During a treatment, a client can feel an area of the body tingling or awareness in a completely different area to where I am working at the time. ... Everything is connected...

02.01.2022 Something to think about.....

02.01.2022 We've all heard of the phrase "Move it or Lose it" - and its true. There are so many health benefits to exercising, that you really need to make it a priority. But the thought of exercise can be daunting if you haven't participated for some time. It's OK.... Just begin..... And start small.

01.01.2022 Before I started in Bowen therapy, I had been a full time, stay-at-home mum to our three daughters. When my youngest was 18 months old I felt it was time for me to start challenging my brain and expand. I wasn’t interested in returning to work as my previous occupation in office work, so I thought I’d study something in natural therapies as I’d always been interested in the field of health and wellness. The Bowen technique is what I chose. I began helping friends and famil...y with my new Bowen therapy skills, but then it progressed into starting up a business. I thought if I worked from home, I could choose my hours and balance motherhood with my business, and it worked! I love that I can help others and make a difference in their lives through Bowen Therapy.

01.01.2022 Your body, mind and spirit is with you for life. Invest your time and energy into your health and wellbeing so you're living the best life you possibly can. You deserve it!
