Leonie came to the Bowen Clinic to see if the technique could help with her very painful shoulder. I remember her first phone call to me. It was obvious she was in a lot of pain. She had recently received a cortizone shot from her doctor but the pain had returned with a vengence. She was ready to try anything except another shot.

I answered the door to this woman carrying numerous heavy bags as she was on her way home from work. She is an Early Years Visitor and visits families with pre-school children for many reasons, some have delayed learning, delayed speech,autism etc. (hence the heavy toys in her bags). Leonie was obviously in pain and I was a little shocked when she turned up on the doorstep with these heavy bags . She had difficulty lying on the massage couch in some positions due to the shoulder restriction. I gave her her first treatment and watched her leave carrying the same heavy bags she arrived with.  I showed her some very simple, basic shoulder exercises that have shown to be of help after a treatment. They take only about 5 minutes to complete. Leonie had been doing these and she had a second treatment. On her second visit she was off work with a twisted ankle which she also received Bowen for along with her shoulder issue.
