Arthritis
Is the diagnosis of arthritis starting to sound like a life sentence of painkillers and restricted activities? Are achy joints causing you to miss out on exercise and family events? Are you starting to feel “old” before your time?
Arthritis has been known to strike as early as 15 years of age and the percentage of arthritic adults is rapidly increasing. There are many theories as to why arthritis has become so prevalent, but the important thing to know is, you don’t have to suffer from the pain anymore.
Many of my arthritic patients have realized that taking painkillers on an ongoing basis is not their cup of tea. Aside from the obvious toxic effects of prescription medication, many people experience digestive complaints as a result of the medication. Imaging something natural, gentle and enjoyable that will decrease the intensity of your arthritic flare-ups and get you moving again….
Our treatment for arthritis is gentle and relaxing, and in most cases pain is reduced significantly and mobility increased within the first 1-3 treatments. The protocol we suggest is a combination of the ionic detox footbath and “Bowen “, as well as appropriate exercising techniques that we would recommend such as aquafit and regular walking. Our computerized assessment is also recommended to determine additional areas of concern relating to diet and organ function (surprisingly, there are always organ concerns in the case of arthritis)
In most cases, the very first treatment will consist of a few strategically placed muscle rolls with carefully timed pauses between them, while your body absorbs the neuromuscular signals. Because the technique takes several days to integrate throughout your body, treatments are generally spaced about a week apart. Many clients only require a couple of treatments for complete resolution, while others require several treatments to reach their goal.
While many of our clients have been referred by a friend who has experienced the results first-hand, other clients are quite often sceptical, having invested hundreds or thousands of dollars on other, unsuccessful treatments. Rest assured that, combined with the footspa the Bowen technique can achieve results for many types of arthritis, even in cases when there have been joint replacements.
The only “catch” with arthritis, is that, although pain levels will decrease and body function will improve, it’s not generally a quick-fix as with other conditions. Clients will notice improvements rather quickly, but quite often feel the need to return every few weeks (as opposed to simpler conditions which will achieve complete resolution). Having said that, we can assure you that the choice to return intermittently is completely yours according to the improvements you experience. Based on the amount of happy arthritics that we have helped up until now, we can certainly say that the choice will not be difficult, and we look forward to developing a relationship with you.
