INFECTIONS

Early in my career as a Bowen therapist a patient was undergoing a session.  When I came back into the room following the basic relaxation procedure 3 (neck), she told me that when she got to the office she was experiencing a severe sore throat.  Following the neck muscle releases, the sore throat disappeared.  When she returned for another session 2 weeks later she said, ”Do you remember that sore throat that I had last time which you cleared?”  I replied,” yes, what happened?”  She told me that when she got home from work that evening her son and husband both had the exact same sore throat and they'd been sick for the past 2 weeks.  She didn't get whatever the virus was.  I figured that this was some sort of coincidence and went about my business.  But, other patients told me about similar occurrences.  Then, one day I felt the familiar scratchy throat and punky feeling one gets when the cold first comes on.  So, I performed the neck moves on myself, and within minutes the symptoms cleared.  I've been doing this ever since on myself whenever I feel a cold coming on.  I also take a dropper full of Echinacea in a glass of water.  It works almost every time.  I would only guess that the moves to the neck muscles open up the lymphatic drainage system and this reduces the accumulation of viral bodies in the oral pharynx.  Mr. Bowen was notorious for finding the relationship of the lymphatic's to the muscles that he moved.

One Friday afternoon after I'd completed the same neck moves on a patient she commented that her sinus infection cleared up while I was out of the room.  I commented something or another, and then she asked, “If my husband can get here before closing time, could you give him a treatment too?  He has the same sinus infection that I had.”

Approximately one year following my early Bowen experiences it dawned on me that I no longer get those fever blisters on my lip (herpes simplex).  I used to get them if the weather changed, allergies flared, got stressed, or if I thought I was catching a cold.  I've now not had but two of them during the past 16 years.

Following Bowen therapy I've seen countless warts fall out, fungus nails and skin clear up.  What seems odd is that I've performed treatments for patients in an attempt to help these infectious problems and nothing happens.  When I’m least expecting it helps.  I wish I could get a clue about this phenomenon.
