Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): I was diagnosed with Asthma in Nov. 2010 after being admitted to hospital at a life threatening stage, I was treated with steroids, antibiotics, inhalers and continuous oxygen for over a week. Discharged with inhalers twice daily, and in-between if required, and peak flow as acceptable. After the Bowen treatment I reduced the inhaler to once per day first thing on waking. On seeing my consultant he was amazed at my progress and the peak flow reading had improved dramatically. I was therefore discharged from hospital for self care. Reference:

Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): I have suffered from asthma that during the winter months can incapacitate me for long periods of time. It is practically difficult when I'm suffering from a cold or flu. After receiving the Bowen the symptoms were alleviated and I did not require medication. Reference:

What complaint(s) or symptom(s) brought you to the Bowen Technique: Asthma Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): We decided to take James who was 17 months old to see Rosemary for Bowen treatment as he had been diagnosed as asthmatic when he was just 2 months old. James had to be given his pump 4 times a day which caused him to get very stressed as he didn't like having the spacer over his face. James always had a cough and cold and was wheezing all the time. He used to regularly suffer from croup and was taken by hospital by ambulance once as it got so bad. He used to wake regularly in the night coughing and always had a runny nose. James also suffered from eczema and would scratch until he was covered with scratches and bleeding. A family member heard about Rosemary and we arranged a meeting. I was amazed that the sessions were only about 10 minutes long. Right from the first treatment there were vast improvements in James health. The cough practically disappeared overnight. Everyone I met noticed and commented on James lack of cough and increase in energy. By the time James had had 3 treatments the wheezing had completely gone, his nose didn't run so much and he barely coughed at all. He doesn't have his pump anymore and his eczema has improved a great deal. James is a happy lively boy now and has a peaceful, undisturbed night sleep every night. We are amazed and very pleased with the results and recommend it to everyone we meet. Reference:

What complaint(s) or symptom(s) brought you to the Bowen Technique: Asthma and Back Pain How did your complaint(s)/symptom(s) affect you?: Persistent chest infections and inability to walk very far. What activities have you been able to resume since receiving Bowen sessions? How has your life been improved?: Fully Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): For years I have suffered from asthma and every winter would catch a cold which resulted ina chest infection which I could not shake off. One year I had to take 12 weeks off work. Since having a single session of Bowen with the 'asthma move' I have so far had four winters with no chest problems at all. I have to say, this, coupled with the freedom to be able to walk again, has completely changed my life. Thank you so much to Bowen Therapy. Reference:

Also since having Bowen therapy I have not required my inhaler which I used for Asthma and only required my ventolin inhaler occasionally. Reference:
