WITHOUT doubt, this year has been more than a little strange. Home schooling, financial fallout and health worries, not to mention loss of loved ones in some cases, have affected us all in one way or another.

We complementary therapists are perhaps more resilient than most and it has been wonderful to see our customers, colleagues and friends supporting each other.

For myself, I have encouraged my Bowen Technique and Reflex Resonance Technique students to keep up with their anatomy and physiology training, prepare outline case studies as appropriate and carry out desk research to further develop their knowledge.

I am thrilled to be receiving inquiries for 2021 training courses including people considering a change of career. In fact, I used lockdown to work on a personal project, to revise the Bowen Training UK Prospectus… watch this space.

We have seen increased demand for our specialist health and wellness products to help people struggling with stress-related aches and pains, unable to sleep or relax. And this current focus on self-care has encouraged me to create three simple gift bags… a Christmas gift that will keep on giving!

For more information on how our natural products could help you and your family please see our website.

I am optimistic the coming year will be less fraught and send warmest wishes to you all for a stress-free Christmas. Thank you so much for your support and friendship during this past year, may it continue into the New Year. Please contact me for advice or with any questions as I am always happy to help.

Keep well and stay safe #handsfacespace

He says soaking in a bath of Epsom salts helps ease those muscular aches and pains.

This comes as no surprise to us here at Bowen Supplies HQ, where Bexters crystals, containing magnesium sulphate (Epsom salts) are treatment of choice for many top athletes and sports people to accelerate post-training and performance recovery.

For the ultimate rejuvenating bath experience, we recommend Bexters Bath Crystals which contain extra magnesium sulphate plus essential oil of peppermint. A ‘must have’ after lockdown exercise, where it is easy to over-do things when following an online dance, yoga or gym session. Remember Joe Wicks with his arm in a sling…?
