  • 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.

    Of course ‘Bowen Supplies by Helen’ came about through learning the Bowen technique in Australia. Bexters Soda Crystals come from a family business in Melbourne, home of Tom Bowen and still arrive here in the UK by the ton! #bowtechEase is a fairly new addition but one of our best sellers. Thank you Tom Bowen, and Ossie Rentsch my teacher 🙏

    As exhausted runners returned to base, Helen and her fellow complementary therapists were ready and waiting to ease tight hamstrings and sore calf muscles. Wind and rain made things extra difficult for participants who made a beeline for the massage area for some relief before heading home for a well-deserved bath with Bexters crystals.

    On offer was Bowen Technique, Balanced by Bowen - Lucy Mclennan Helen Perkins, soft tissue therapy Body Mechanics Soft Tissue Therapy and massage Marholmatherapy. In return runners made a donation to the Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice in Peterborough.

    Bexters crystals are treatment of choice for athletes and sportsmen to aid recovery from training and events. For testimonials and product information please see our website: https://www.bowensuppliesbyhelen.com/

    Thanks, Janey for putting the spotlight on Bowtech Ease… this Ayurvedic aromatherapy blend of essential oils has been described as a ‘magic’ potion. “ I use it daily and wouldn’t be without it,” says Joan who suffers with osteoarthritis in her feet. The oil keeps pain and inflammation in check.
