PLANTAR FASCIITIS

PLANTAR FASCIITIS

Plantar fasciitis [fash-ee-itis], often pronounced face-ee-itis], is one of those medical enigmas [mysteries].

One of my patients who I had treated off and on for about 3 years for plantar fasciitis, came in for her semi-annual cortisone injection. I had tried all of the other standards of care for her, except surgery. When I informed her about Bowen, and that there was a chance it could relieve her pain instead of the injection, she quickly agreed to it. This was about 2 months after I had taken my 1st Bowen workshop in January, 1995. At this point, I was still referring to my cheat sheets which helped me to do the sequences without omissions or errors.

Lorna was a very large lady, about 260 pounds. Muscle mass was very large and taut, beneath gobs of adipose tissue. She was wearing a dress, which inhibited my doing the pelvis and hamstrings procedures properly. So, I did the best as I could. I probably did my full body sequence for her, [BRP 1, BRP, 2, BRP 3, KIDNEY, LOWER RESPIRATORY, HAMSTRINGS, ANTERIOR PELVIS, KNEE, ANKLE, UPPER RESPIRATORY, AND TMJ]. I do not remember if I did coccyx or sacral procedures, probably not on that 1st session. When I finished up with her, I said, “Rest for a couple minutes, the get up and walk around a minute or two before you put your shoes back on. I will see you before you leave”. While I was in Podiatry room 2 seeing a patient, I heard a yell from the back of the office by Lorna, “Yahoo!!” I got up and went back to the Bowen room and asked, “If everything was okay?” She said, “Yeh. I got up to walk over to your desk to get my glasses and the pain is completely gone. Wow!!”

We hired Lorna shortly after to clean our offices once a week. When I said, “Goodbye”, upon retiring in 2006, she was still pain free. I never treated her one time with any modality since that day in March, 1995.
