What complaint(s) or symptom(s) brought you to the Bowen Technique: Hip pain and ongoing back and neck stiffness How did your complaint(s)/symptom(s) affect you?: The symptoms caused me discomfort which brought my mood down and caused unpleasant sensations such as pins and needles, which made me anxious. My GP ruled out an underlying complaint but there was no suggested remedy for these symptoms. I had started to think I would just have to live with them, which was quite depressing as I am only in my 30s and feared they would get worse. I wanted to be pain free and feel more agile. What activities have you been able to resume since receiving Bowen sessions? How has your life been improved?: I have been relieved of the pain and am much more flexible. Sitting for long periods is no longer as uncomfortable and the range of movement in my legs and shoulders has increased. How many sessions have you received (and how often)?: I initially attended sessions once a week for three weeks, then reduced the frequency and now have maintenance sessions about once a month to once every six weeks. Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): My pain has decreased and my flexibility and range of movement has increased. But perhaps the most striking impact for me is how holistic the treatment has been and how much it has benefited me mentally and emotionally. My therapist is very intuitive and made links between mind and body which enabled me to realise how my mindset was exacerbating my symptoms. I now feel much more in tune with my body and more relaxed. I am able to achieve very deep states of relaxation during treatments. I would be happy to recommend Bowen Therapy to others.

Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): Way back in November 2005 I was in constant pain and was diagnosed with significant Osteoporosis in my right hip and informed by my GP that I would eventually need a hip replacement. After prescribing painkillers to help me on a day to day basis, this was his duty finished. Having always been very fit and active, I found it extremely frustrating. My immediate family could sense this constant pain, frustration and discomfort so were encouraging me to forget the NHS and my GP and pay for a private hip replacement operation. Although I was not happy to take the prescribed painkillers every day, I was also not happy to undergo surgery. At this stage my son-in-law introduced me to the Bowen Technique and ultimately to Clare. He himself continues to experience relief from this therapy after suffering a permanent back injury several years ago. Given that my initial condition was so acute, I was amazed that the first session of Bowen gave immediate relief to my symptoms and after a few sessions, some ups and downs on the way, I am now walking pain free. Clare has been a constant source of inspiration, information and advice which has enabled me to retain a positive approach to the alternative of drugs and the surgeon's knife. I am really pleased that I stayed with it and now feel healthier, happier and more positive than I have done for several months. Reference:

What complaint(s) or symptom(s) brought you to the Bowen Technique: Deteriorating arthritic hip I suffered considerable back pain /shoulder pain Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): As a consequence of a deteriorating arthritic hip I suffered considerable back pain. Having previously received successful Bowen Technique treatment on a shoulder ailment from another Bowen practitioner I sought her advice as to who to go for my hip/back as she was no longer in London. She recommended me to go to Catherine Ford who treated me for about 6 months. The Technique enabled me to be much more comfortable and better prepared for the eventual surgery. I have now had my hip successfully resurfaced. I strongly recommend the Bowen Technique for the help it has given me on two occasions and Catherine Ford as a practitioner thereof. Reference:

Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): A few years ago I had not heard of Bowen therapy. Then a friend who was having neck problems went to a Bowen therapist for a few weeks and was cured. So when I was diagnosed with arthritis in my hips and knees she recommended having Bowen treatment. So I have a therapist called Judith who has been great and helped me enormously, not only with the therapy, but other advice for wellbeing. My wife now has treatment for similar problems. We can't thank Judith and the Bowen therapy enough. She visits us every month and we always feel better for it. Reference:

Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): Living with constant hip pain was something I had accepted and adapted my life accordingly. Although Jo is a true professional, I was very sceptical as she began work on my hip. After one short session, I honestly can say that I have never had the problem again. Jo has not guaranteed that this will never return and has made no false promises, but for the meantime my problem is cured. I actually went skiing this year and did not feel a thing. I know if it ever comes back, I can go to see Jo and save myself a fortune on prescription painkillers. Reference:

Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): As the result of a high impact accident I had to have a full right hip replacement at a comparatively young age which compromises both my flexibility and gait. Some 8½ years later a component of the replacement failed and a partial revision was performed. Having improved flexibility and gait after the intensive physiotherapy I went for some Bowen therapy to see if I could get any further improvement. I had three sessions and my flexibility improved even more to the point that anyone who didn't know that I had an artificial hip wouldn't know. I can now cross the 'bad' leg over the 'good' leg and walk confidently in high heels, something I couldn't do before Bowen therapy. Reference:

Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): Having a back and neck which periodically "goes" I have successfully used Bowen several times over the past 5 or 6 years. Most recently I developed a pain in my right hip, which gradually worsened until I was limping and it was painful to put my weight on and felt likely to give way when I stood up. By three days after the first treatment my pain had almost gone, and I could only feel a slight twinge when getting in and out of the car. So I had a second treatment just to see it off completely.

What complaint(s) or symptom(s) brought you to the Bowen Technique: Post-operative care Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): After an accident which resulted in having two surgeries on my hip and upper leg I came to have Bowen sessions to help relieve the pain I'd been experiencing in these areas as well as my lower back. At my first session I had a high level of pain and tension in my back. This was reduced considerably by the end of that time. After the second session this pain had disappeared completely.

What complaint(s) or symptom(s) brought you to the Bowen Technique: Arthritic Hip, Leg & Groin Pain Testimonial of your Bowen Therapy experience (how have you benefitted?): Having suffered with severe leg pains for a considerable time and having difficulty in walking, I was told about the Bowen treatment by a friend. Although sceptical I decided to have a "taster" session with Mrs Wortley. The process was so gentle and tender that I did think it was a waste of time. However, the result two days later was absolutely unbelievable. Subsequently I have had monthly half hour sessions and found improvement each time. Whilst I doubt that I will be completely cured, the benefit I have received from the treatment has been outstanding. I shall continue with the treatment indefinitely. I thoroughly recommend Bowen.
