Using The Bowen Technique for Breathing Disorders
Breathing Disorders and The Bowen Technique.Whatever the level of breating disorder or similar respiratory problems like Hay Fever, Allergic Rhinitis, or Sinus Pain, the Bowen Technique may reduce the level of attacks, quickly and effectively.
As Bowen is both very gentle and non invasive, there is no danger in using it with asthma and other respiratory medications.
How does it work with Breathing Disorders?.The key to an asthma attack is the diaphragm. This contracts normally when breathing in and then relaxes to allow expiration. With an asthma condition, the diaphragm may be partly in contraction, hence the wheeze of an asthmatic. If a trigger, such as cold or illness, or an allergy is detected, the diaphragm seems to contract more and more thus allowing the asthmatic to breathe in, but not to breathe out.
The Bowen technique persuades the muscles, especially the diaphragm, to relax more and more.
Asthma and Allergy.Asthma attacks can be triggered by many things:- a cold or illness, some foods and pesticides and environmental toxins, animal hair, smoking, anxiety and other allergens.
At the Bowen Clinic we also carry out Food Sensitivity assessments.
Food Intolerance .Food intolerances occur when we have consumed the same foods on a regular basis
for many years, causing the body and immune system to malfuction.
This can cause a multitude of problems which take many years to develop and can include:-
- Skin Conditions
- Asthma and breathing problems
- Bloating
- Irritable Bowel
- Flatulence
- Fatigue
- Candida
- Stress
- Headaches/Migraines
- Unnecessary weight gain or loss.
Your first step to eliminating these problems is to have a Food Intolerance assessment.
