I talk a lot about what Bowen Therapy can do. Don't just take my word for it. This is what the clients are saying ...

"After being diagnosed with a herniated disc in my lower back and not being able to walk or stand for over 3 weeks. A family friend recommended me to see Sean at Bowen Relief. I have seen him 4 times now and wow what can I say...it's been life changing. I'm almost back to normal life and totally off pain killers 95% of the time. I would highly recommend giving Sean a try if you're in pain"

At Bowen Relief, I see a lot of these types of concerns. To find out if Bowen Therapy can help you, please feel free to call me on 0406 338 440, or go to my website to make an online booking.

Do you or someone you know or love suffer from Sciatica?

Sciatic pain refers to pain, tingling, or numbness that radiates from the lower back, through the buttock, and down the back of the leg due to irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve.

Some common causes of sciatic pain include herniated or bulging discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, and spondylolisthesis.

Bowen therapy has been shown to be effective in relieving a variety of pain conditions, including sciatica.

Bowen therapy can help with sciatica by releasing tightness in the lumber spine, lower back muscles, gluteal muscles, & sacrum reducing inflammation. By addressing the underlying imbalances in the body, Bowen therapy can help relieve sciatic pain and improve overall health and well-being.

We frequently are able to get results where other therapies aren't.

Did you know that often your hip, knee, groin pain might actually be coming from a bad back. Sometimes these other areas are just the symptoms & not the cause.

Symptoms of sacroiliac dysfunction can include lower back pain, hip pain, groin pain, and pain that radiates down the leg. Other symptoms can include stiffness or decreased range of motion in the lower back or hips, and difficulty standing or sitting for prolonged periods of time.

Too often I have clients come through that have been misdiagnosed elsewhere & once we address the sacroiliac dysfunction then the symptoms settle down & the client can get on with life again.

If the above sounds like you, then please feel free to contact me on 0406 338 440 or go to my website https://bowenrelief.com.au/

Here is an often-overlooked part of the body in treatments.

The p***c symphysis is a joint located in the pelvis where the two p***c bones meet at the front of the body. Its main function is to provide stability and support to the pelvis during various movements and activities, such as walking, running, jumping, and childbirth. The p***c symphysis consists of fibrocartilage tissue, which allows for slight movement and flexibility between the two p***c bones while maintaining overall stability. During pregnancy, the p***c symphysis can slightly widen and become more flexible to accommodate the growing baby and facilitate childbirth. However, certain conditions or injuries, such as trauma, inflammation, or excessive stress on the joint, can lead to dysfunction or pain in the p***c symphysis, which may require medical intervention and treatment.

I have had some outstanding results working with the p***c symphysis when other treatments just aren't quite delivering the desired results. Despite it's location on the body it is actually a very noninvasive procedure

What is Frozen Shoulder?

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that causes stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. It occurs when the tissues surrounding the shoulder joint become thickened and tight. The exact cause of frozen shoulder is unclear, but it is commonly associated with other medical conditions like diabetes, thyroid disorders, and heart disease.

The symptoms of frozen shoulder typically develop gradually and progress over time. They may include pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion in the affected shoulder. Activities like bending, reaching, and lifting can become difficult and painful.

Treatment for frozen shoulder often involves a combination of therapies, including Bowen Therapy, stretching exercises, physiotherapy, and occasionally, medications or injections to help reduce inflammation and improve mobility. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to break up adhesions and release the shoulder capsule. With proper treatment and support, most individuals with frozen shoulder can regain full range of motion and alleviate their pain.

I see many clients come through the clinic door with back pain/complaints of varying degrees.
It is not uncommon that there is a nerve issue accompanying the presenting concern - especially Sciatica.

This image gives a greater understanding of how easily the nerves of the back can become involved in back related pain issues. As many people already know, the nerve pain is not necessarily contained to the back. It can be experienced down the legs, in the feet, up into the neck/head etc.

Please - look after your backs! If doing manual labor type work - use the correct lifting techniques. If playing heavy contact sports - make sure you strengthen both back and core muscles. If you suspect you may be experiencing a nerve issue related to your back - make sure you get it addressed sooner rather than later. This could be the difference between resolving the problem or living with the problem.

How does the cervical spine contribute to headaches & migraines?

The cervical spine, also known as the neck, can contribute to the development of headaches and migraines due to various reasons. One common way is through muscle tension and tightness in the neck and upper back. Poor posture, stress, excessive computer use, and sedentary lifestyle can cause tension in the muscles of the neck, leading to headaches.

Additionally, cervical spine misalignments or intervertebral disc issues can compress nerves or irritate blood vessels in the neck. This can result in referred pain to the head and trigger headaches or migraines. For example, a herniated disc pressing on a nerve can cause radiating pain and headache symptoms.

At Bowen Relief, I see a lot of these types of concerns. To find out if Bowen Therapy can help you, please feel free to call me on 0406 338 440, or go to my website to make an online booking.

What are the main differences between Bowen Therapy & massage? This is something I get asked a lot.

Massage therapy and Bowen therapy are both techniques used to promote relaxation, relieve muscle tension, and improve physical well-being. However, there are some key differences between the two.

Massage therapy involves the manipulation of soft tissues, including muscles, ligaments, and tendons, using various techniques such as kneading, tapping, and rubbing. It is typically quite a bit harder/heavier in terms of force used to apply it.

On the other hand, Bowen therapy is a gentle yet firm, non-invasive form of bodywork that targets specific points on the body, stimulating the fascia, muscles, and nervous system to restore balance and promote healing. It involves precise moves performed over certain muscles, tendons, or ligaments, followed by short breaks, allowing the body to respond and reset.

Ultimately, the choice between massage therapy and Bowen therapy depends on individual preferences, needs, and the specific condition being addressed.

Keep an open mind!!

Have you been getting treated for a particular concern for quite some time but not happy with the results you are getting and feeling like you are just an atm machine.

So often I hear people say that they have been told "this is the only way and these will be your results" by main stream methods.

Hmmm!! I tend to disagree. Everything has it's place and no one method is the be-all and end-all. There are many many beneficial 'alternative therapies' that may well have a different approach from the mainstream.

Bowen Therapy is one of these. It can help address many different concerns within the body and many of the same concerns as the mainstream modalities.
So why should you try this then? It is how we do it and the way it works with your body that makes the difference.

Amazing results...

As you know, Head Talk is a mental health service... I thought I would share the results of a recent client that I had the pleasure of working with & we have just finished together.
Obviously for confidentiality reasons I will not disclose many details however there was years of physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, abandonment, grief, guilt etc.
DO ANY OF THESE SOUND FAMILIAR TO YOU??

This client presented with scores of Depression 14, Anxiety 8, Stress 18.
After 4 sessions this client walked away with scores of Depression 0, Anxiety 0, Stress 1.

This client has been through years & years of other therapies & nothing came even close to achieving what we achieved together.
Needless to say - this client is a very different person now. Much happier, much calmer, much more positive, is having a hugely positive impact on the relationships at home, etc etc.

Does this sounds like something you would like for your life??

(please share on if you think this may help someone you know)

It's not necessarily because you've done something wrong & even if you have well, what's done is done!
Just like the trees - you don't have to hang onto your dead wood for ever & ever, - it is not serving you any good.
I may not be the best of gardeners but this I can help you lose this deadwood....
