  • Bexters to the rescue as Helen sprains her ankle! Posted May 19, 2019

    Off

    WE very much value the many positive comments that come into Bowen Supplies HQ endorsing the benefits of our specialist products, some of which we feature on this website and social media. This time I can share my own experience to illustrate the benefits of Bexters Soda Crystals in reducing swelling.

    Not paying proper attention when walking mum’s dogs, I stumbled over a kerb and twisted my ankle rather badly. By the end of the same day both ankle and foot had noticeably swelled up and it was painful to walk.

    Embracing this unexpected opportunity to follow the advice I give to others, I wrapped my ankle overnight with Bexters Soda Crystals, confident of seeing an improvement in the morning. Sure enough, the swelling had gone down, and the applicator wrap was damp with tell-tale residue where the crystals had hardened as the fluid soaked through the fabric.

    Although the ankle was still a little tender, I could walk quite easily. By coincidence I was running a Module 6 Bowtech class that weekend and was able to demonstrate the used wrap while inviting my students to perform the ankle procedure to improve function.

    The process reflects my confidence in Bexters, which can be used as a bath/foot soak as well as wrapping to assist recovery from injury through the reduction of swelling. We hear many similar stories where use of Bexters has relieved pain, and improved mobility allowing better rehabilitation.

    In my own case, after two days of being constantly on my feet running the training course, I repeated the wrap treatment which provided further relief as the tenderness vanished and a shapely ankle re-emerged!

    Good luck to everyone taking part in our local Great Eastern Run (Sunday October 12th)... we have been busy responding to requests for Bexters crystals to ease those aching legs and feet afterwards.

    And if you twist an ankle or get an injury, we can also supply one of our purpose-made applicator wraps for use with Bexters to reduce swelling and relieve inflammation. There is no need to suffer in silence!

    Great Eastern Run... are you prepared?
    We've been supporting local runner Helen Spivak since July when she rolled her ankle during training causing a soft tissue injury resulting in painful swelling.

    Through a combination of #bowentechnique to loosen hamstrings and aid calves and Achilles tendons plus regular use of award-winning Bexters crystals to prevent swelling and fluid build-up in ankles and feet, Helen is facing the Run in good shape.

    She is running on behalf of PSPA, a charity close to her heart after her mum died from the rare neurological disorder progressive supranuclear palsy.

    As the date gets closer (October 12th) she is well stocked with two of our purpose-designed applicator wraps to use with Bexters on each ankle after training, to prevent fluid build-up and relieve any swelling. We also advised her to bathe in Bexters to replenish lost minerals and ease aching muscles... especially important after the Run to aid recovery, as well as post-training.

    Please get in touch if you would like us to help you out too! It's easy to order via our online shop https://www.bowensuppliesbyhelen.com/ or you can message us here and we'll get right back to you. Great Eastern Run Good Running Events Ltd.
