CIRCULATION
One December morning a lady came in to get relief for a painful corn on the inner side of her little toe. Her toe was a purplish color with a hard corn on the inner side adjacent to the toenail. She informed me that her toe wasn't always purple. It always got pink when the weather warmed up. She had a condition called Raynaud’s disease. Not really a disease, but a spasticity of the blood vessels, which is aggravated by cold temperatures. I trimmed the corn and informed her about a minor surgical procedure, which could relieve the corn permanently. However, we'd have to wait until the weather warmed for me to check the circulation in order to determine that she could heal the surgery. The corn removal relieved her pain for about a month.
She returned in January for another treatment. At this visit she complained about pain in her hip and back due to favoring the pain in her toe. I immediately offered a Bowen session in addition to trimming and padding the corn.
When she returned the following week her toe was a little less purple and almost pink. I gave her another Bowen treatment, re-padded the corn and advised to come back when necessary.
On a cold, blustery day in February she returned with the painful corn and said, ”I think that you can go ahead with the operation because the toe has remained pink since the last Bowen treatment.” I listened to the pulses with my Doppler ultrasound and sure enough her circulation was totally normal. Her toe was nice and pink, and after I blanched the tip of her toe with finger pressure, it pinked up in 1 second. The following week I operated on the toe and it healed very quickly.
Another patient complained about her cold feet, especially in bed. She had to sleep with her socks on most of the time, and if she didn’t her husband complained about her cold feet waking him up all night long. Following 3 treatments her feet warmed up, as well as her hands, and have remained so ever since. (To Find A Practitioner)
