You will be given instructions at the end of each treatment, this could range from drinking plenty
of water, to a few light movements or exercises to be done daily. Nothing strenuous.
On the day of treatment.
If you have a long drive home after a treatment, stop the car every half hour or so and walk around, making sure you
and your car are safe. This aids lymphatic drainage and helps the body take on the work. Avoid sitting still at home for
more than half hour at a time, just a few seconds moving about will help.
Water.
Drinking water is an
important part of Bowen aftercare. Many problems are exacerbated by dehydration and increasing water intake alone can lessen
symptoms. After a Bowen treatment your body will start eliminating toxins, water in your body is used for this and so drinking
more water will help control any reactions. Good hydration is also required by your cells, to enable them to send signals
to your brain about what is going on in your body and so aid the healing process. Aim to be drinking 2 litres a day, start
with 500ml if this seems daunting.
Injury and Re-Injury
If you have a fresh injury or a re-injury between
treatments, please call and make an appointment to see me before the next scheduled appointment and I will see you as soon
as possible.
