  • Natural remedy to reduce swelling Posted February 28, 2019

    Off

    WHY is swelling a bad sign? And how can Bexters crystals help?

    Swelling is often a symptom of inflammation, a result of increased fluid and/or white blood cells to the affected area – the body’s response to aid the healing process.

    Such swelling caused by injury, accident or chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, is a natural defence to protect the injured/affected area and forcing us to reduce movement which can hinder everyday activity.

    Inflammation is a natural healing response when the body recognises damage caused by injury, infection or some other irritation. In addition to swelling other effects include redness, pain, heat and loss of normal function. It is most frequently seen in the joints or around strained or torn ligaments, muscles and tendons.

    Swelling and inflammation, not always simultaneously but quite often found together, are most common within the sporting community as well as those suffering from chronic arthritic conditions or repetitive tasks. Seek advice from a GP, a complementary therapist or physiotherapist to identify the cause and ensure the best treatment to help the body to recover.

    If swelling is left untreated for too long it can lead to serious discomfort and slows recovery time be it from sporting injury, intensive training, an unfortunate accident or post-surgery such as knee replacement. Prolonged inflammation can also cause knock-on problems, leading to chronic and repeat swelling with potential for tissue damage.

    Bexters crystals, first used widely by the Bowen community after endorsement by Tom Bowen, provide effective, natural relief from swelling and pain to ease discomfort and accelerate recovery. For maximum results use the crystals with our purpose-designed applicator wrap.

    We are offering professional colleagues a simple way to boost their business during this long hot summer... inviting any and all qualified therapists to consider becoming a Bowen Supplies stockist.

    Why? To strengthen your relationship with clients and build long term loyalty while increasing your revenue.

    Many of our online customers find their way to us having been recommended by their reflexologist, physiotherapist, Bowen therapist or some other complementary therapy practitioner.

    Helen explains: "By holding a quantity of our award-winning products in your own clinic you will benefit from initial and repeat sales while adding value through advising clients on home care. We have no minimum order requirement; stockists benefit from reduced prices while the client/customer avoids the need to pay postage!"

    Holistic therapist Norma from Scotland speaks from experience after 15 years as a stockist. She told us: "Being able to offer Bowtech Ease (my top seller) and Bexters crystals there and then saves time and enables me to advise on home care to complement their treatment. I have found no disadvantages and I am very happy to recommend this opportunity to others."

    Thrilled to share this fabulous feedback from a complementary therapist that arrived today:

    'A Bexters Soda Crystals soak followed by regular application of Bowtech Ease is really helpful in relieving the symptoms of RSI in my right hand, which I feel after doing several back-to-back treatments of reflexology.' Helen S, Peterborough

    Bexters crystals can also be used with our applicator wrap, around an aching swollen wrist. And this is a good reminder that #bowentherapy can also help relieve repetitive strain injury, often felt in the elbow as well as the wrists.

    Do give us a call if you have any questions related to RSI or similar strains and sprains.
