This is an impressive CV for someone who isn't even eight years of age! Jack has a clean bill of health and has remained injury free. He plays at least one match a week along with two training sessions per week. Recently he experience slight twinges in his hamstrings. It was thought that the Bowen technique would provide an appropriate support for him as he pursues his football carrier and continues to grow.
Phillipa
37 year old woman
Diagnosed as suffering from marfans syndrome. Symptoms include joint pain and weakness. She is six foot tall and is a nurse. The lifting involved in nursing puts a strain on her lower back and she damaged her left shoulder whilst lifting a patient, resulting in surgery on the rotator cuff, removing the Acromion. Phillipa had been suffering a lot of lumber and sciatic pain along with the joint pain she always experienced all over her body. The shoulder pain was sporadic, depending upon how much lifting of patients she did. After the first treatment Phillipa reported that her general joint pain felt 80% better! Subsequent treatments concentrated on her shoulder, lumber and sciatic pain, this was on going due to the re-injury situation of frequently lifting patents, but treatment did offer enough relief for Phillipa to continue her work.
Allan

man
A keen "fly fisher" in his late forty's and had an RSI type injury. He had a fishing trip to
Scotland booked
in five weeks time and wanted to be able to enjoy the fishing. Currently he was wearing a support on his arm and was unable to cast his line.
Allan received five treatments prior to his fishing trip and was able to enjoy his fishing fully. He came for one treatment
on return from the fishing trip to help prevent further injury.
Sarah
62 year old
woman
Suffered lymphedema in both legs following treatment for cancer
nineteen years ago. Her groin areas and ankles were very painful
although she found all touch painful.
Sarah found it difficult to relax to start with, remaining tense with shallow breathing for the first two
treatments. Because she found touch painful the treatment was given very lightly. after the second treatment
Sarah said "she was floating on air".
When she arrived for the third treatment Sarah reported no leg pain with
lymphedema for five days, she had taken no pain killers and had not worn support stockings.
