This video was made by some students as part of a project within their media studies. It gives you the opportunity to get a bit of insight into how we work in clinic and from a client on his views as someone who has been a personal trainer and a regular gym goer and sports player in his past.
It also refers to the case of a client who had been an elite runner for her country who had not advised us that she was wearing a heel raise orthotic until we were 6 months into her Bowen therapy sessions. The implications for her were that the Bowen work could only get her to a certain point in her adjustments. As soon as we knew about the orthotic we asked her to remove it - we also put in place back-up specialist support from a consultant podiatrist to ensure that a base line was taken and she could be measured for an alternative orthotic IF she ever needed it. This film was taken in 2018 -- she has at 2022 still never needed a replacement orthotic and indeed she has undergone work with GP Visser and his team at the Olab in Poole to undergo teeth and jaw (TMJ) corrections with amazing results.
Bowen can go a long way but where there have been interventions such as surgery or fractures, etc there will be limitations which may require further intervention.
None of our videos constitutes medical advice in any way.
Anyone making use of our videos does so entirely at their own risk as no advice is being given herein.
When we see clients in clinic we provide them with customised advice based on actually having assessed them and that advice given is specific to them at that time.
We work entirely within the bounds of our training and qualifications. That training is an ongoing process with formal training courses, conferences, hands-on dissection, research and more and, whilst it may overlap with other therapies it makes no claim to be any of those other therapies.
