How may Bowen Therapy help people with Neck Pain?

Because there are no forceful movements or cracking of bones there is no risk of doing any damage to any of the body structures. And because we work with the muscles and their controlling nerves in Bowen Therapy, the muscles that hold the bones in place are corrected, so that muscle and bone alignment is addressed. By addressing both muscles and bone alignment our results may be experienced for longer, making Bowen Therapy possibly one of the most cost effective options for neck pain around.

​Some of the neck presentations commonly seen in clinic are:
  • Chronic neck pain
  • Whiplash after car accident
  • Neck & Shoulder pain
  • Neck cracking or grinding
  • Stiff neck leading to headaches or migraine

Help for Golfer's Elbow in Geelong

What is Golfer's Elbow?

Golfer’s Elbow, scientifically known as epicondylitis, is a condition where the tendons that connect the forearm to the elbow become inflamed. The pain initiates from the bony bump-like structure of the elbow and travels down the inside of the forearm.
The name is a misnomer, in that it doesn’t just affect golfers. Golfer’s elbow is different from Tennis elbow in that, tennis elbow affects the tendons on the outside of the elbow, while Golfer’s Elbow is caused by damage to the tendons on the inside of the elbow. It is also less common than tennis elbow.

What Causes Golfer's Elbow?

The condition gets its name from an overused hand motion, like that of a golfer. Golfer’s Elbow is caused by forearm muscle overuse due to repetitive movements like flexing, gripping or swinging. These movements can cause tiny tears in the tendons. Overuse of tools like hammers, rakes and paintbrushes can cause Golfer’s Elbow as well.

When to Seek Help for Golfer's Elbow?

If your symptoms are not improving after two weeks, it's probably worth getting somebody to look at your Golfer's Elbow. Getting it seen to early can facilitate a faster recovery and reduce the chance of re-occurrence. 

Without allowing the injury to heal, and continuing the activity that is aggravating the golfer's elbow, the pain will likely get worse. In some extreme cases, surgery might be required. 

How may Bowen Therapy help people with Golfer's Elbow?

Bowen Therapy may help to increase blood flow to the area to increase the rate of healing and speed up recovery. Bowen may also help by working to release tension in the flexor muscles of the forearm which could be  putting additional stress on the tendons  of the elbow and preventing recovery.

Many clients with Golfer's Elbow that have Bowen Therapy may report a faster rate of healing, a better range in their movements, and feeling more comfortable doing the activities they enjoy. With Bowen Therapy we address the whole body, targeting several different areas we see as contributing to the problem. And because Bowen works differently to other therapists (through the nervous system), it's not uncommon to get results where other therapists have failed..

    Whilst I believe it's excellent to be involved with your own health, it's important to know only medical doctors can perform a medical diagnosis.
