Fibromyalgia
I’m often asked does Bowen help with Fibromyalgia, yes Bowen is very effective at reducing symptoms of Fibromyalgia.
One of my clients, Sara (not her real name) was ecstatic as she could let her grandchildren run up and hug her without pain. This was a massive improvement for her. As a result working became easier as she could sit without the pain, and had an increase in energy.
When Sara finished her 1st treatment, she immediately felt a reduction in pain. The added benefit with Bowen is that the treatment is adjusted to meet the patients comfort level. With this in mind Bowen works just as well with light pressure.
Bowen calms the nervous system and reduces inflammation, therefore reduces sensitivity to touch. Also for our bodies to heal, we need to be in a relaxed state. This where Bowen comes into its own!
With this in mind Bowen Therapy can also help with other auto immune conditions e.g. Multiple Sclerosis.
I have witnessed how Bowen has dramatically reduced pain in my clients. At times immediately after treatment. Previously they would visit at least 2 other modalities each week, for only to have the pain to return in a few days. Following regular Bowen treatments, the period before pain begins to return becomes longer.
I recommend my clients have weekly appointments for 2-3 weeks. We then reassess when they can go almost a week with little pain. They then extend to fortnightly appointments. We reassess how their pain levels are holding. My aim is to get my clients to have at least 4 weeks between their appointments or even further apart depending on how they respond to treatment. At Tranquility Through Bowen the aim is the comfort and wellbeing of the client. If you are wondering if you or someone you know could benefit from Bowen Therapy, give me a no obligation call to discuss your situation.
