Bowen Therapy is ideal for treating the common ailments of pregnant women, mothers and babies. It is also wonderfully relaxing!
Bowen can play a pivotal role in the health care of women both during and after pregnancy.
It is fabulous for pregnant women and it can be performed in its entirety with the patient sitting down. Common pregnancy pains are gently and easily relieved almost immediately. Try Bowen during pregnancy if you suffer from any of the following:
Backache * Sciatica * Aching legs * Breast tenderness * Headaches * Fatigue * Nausea * Dizziness * Breathlessness * Heartburn * Decreased energy levels * Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Bowen is also extremely effective at treating women after they give birth. New mothers often experience pain and discomfort for some time after giving birth, even if the birth itself is natural and straightforward. Birth trauma most commonly affects the pelvic area and the lower back. Bowen therapy is a gentle way to relieve these pains, as well as other problems such as misalignment of the spine, mastitis and general fatigue.
Birth is one of the most traumatic processes a child will go through. Babies can have Bowen Therapy within a day or so of being born. Gentle and non-invasive, it helps the baby recover from the physical stresses of the birth, and is also an effective treatment for:
Infant colic * Digestive problems * Irregular sleeping * Generally unsettled babies
Bowen is also recommended for treating older babies and children who suffer from:
Asthma * Glue ear * Sinus problems * Headache and Migraine * Indigestion * Dyslexia * Cerebral Palsy * Dyspraxia * ADHD * Autism * Bed wetting
