    Case Study: Tim Gilbert

    Occupation: Painter and decorator

    The Challenge
    After injuring his dominant right wrist in a fall, landing badly on a concrete kerbstone, Tim found himself in a plaster cast for three weeks, followed by physiotherapy and eight weeks off work. Recovery was hampered due to ongoing weakness and swelling, not ideal as he is self-employed.

    The Solution
    Helen devised a treatment plan involving Bowen Technique therapy sessions to strengthen damaged tendons, with use of our specialist natural products at home. Every-other night, before bed, Tim applied Bexters Soda Crystals in our small cotton applicator wrap, until the swelling was reduced. This was followed by daily application of Bowtech Ease oil to promote healing of soft tissue. She also recommended gentle hand exercises to restore movement.

    The Outcome
    This regimen was followed for three months, the recommended recovery period for this type of injury, after which Tim reported no further pain and improved flexibility. He regained feeling in his hand and wrist, enabling him to better grip his paint brushes!

    Tim says:
    “This injury was a ‘worst case’ scenario, being self-employed, and while I was quite sceptical at first, I am so pleased I followed Helen’s advice. I stuck with the home care and was very soon much better and able to return to work… thank you.”

    Fans of Strictly Come Dancing will know that the fabulous Angela Rippon made use of cryotherapy - the equivalent of an ice bath - to relieve and revive her muscles from the intense training regime required. At the age of 79 she had to put extra effort into maintaining her health and fitness, which was clear from the wonderful routines she and her dance partner Kai performed each week.
    If you don't fancy plunging into an ice cold bath, you can accelerate recovery after rigorous training or exercise by soaking in a bath of warm water with Bexters Soda Crystals, treatment of choice for many top athletes and sportsmen and women.
    Don't take our word for it. Check out our website for more information and user feedback. https://www.bowensuppliesbyhelen.com/

    Falling #autumnleaves mean hours of extra work clearing up and preparing the garden for winter. Many of Helen's clients then complain of an aching back and even worse strained muscles which can affect posture and lead to time off work. Relief can often be found from a soak in a warm bath or if things don't improve, book a #bowentherapy session.
