Introduction

The Bowen practitioners have noticed during their

activity an amazing fact: the human body has an

extraordinary capacity to heal itself, but needs to be

supported and guided in this process.

Generally speaking, doctors are skeptics about

spectacular healings, but we want to show with this

presentation that doctors, medicines and treatments in

general are only instruments for the “INNER

DOCTOR”, which can alleviate and even cure.

Medical comments and osteopath –postural considerations related to a double scoliosis.

Treated with Bowen – Bowtech

Patient N.L. 13 years old, diagnosed on the 25th of May 2011 (clinic consultation, osteopathic measurements, scanning with Spinal mouse, etc) with a double scoliosis (in “S’) and a tilted pelvis. On the image obtained with the Spinal Mouse scanning can be observed an antero-listezis, a rotation of the T10 vertebra and the blocking in extension of this vertebra (algo-dystrophic syndrome, with functional, secondary manifestations due to this osteopathic condition).

There was no other treatment taken before. We started the Bowen treatment on the 1st of June 2011 (see the next images fig.1p, 1a, 1s obtained with Spinal Mouse scanning); treatments were applied once a week (total 6 treatments). The clinic and imagistic control was done again on the 5th of July 2011. The results were more than self-evident.

Comparision

The evolution of the scoliosis can be observed in the below table: it was much reduced,

the spine became longer with 2,2 cm, the inter-vertebral mobility increased, the lateral

flexion, left and right became more ample. The pelvis tilting was significantly reduced,

the lower limbs position became normal. All that in only 6 Bowen treatments.

The Bowen-Bowtech therapy effect can be observed in the following images, where the first one is the spine on the 1st of June 2011 and the second is the spine on the 5th of July 2011.

It has been noticed the spine got longer with over 2 cm and the

mobility on lateral tilting increased with 13 degrees on the left

and 10 degrees on the right.

Through the initial non invasive scanning it was observed the thoracic scoliosis (in the T6-

T10 aria, the tilt of the vertebras from the vertical line was up to 3 degrees left) and

compensated lumbar L2-L4 ( up to -7 degrees lateral, right tilt). In the same time, the

pelvis has a tilt of +9 degrees from the vertical, also compensated.

After the treatment, the values of the thoracic vertebras angles are dropping significant to

1-2 degrees (totally, the thoracic spine from the scoliosis segment gets straighter with

approximate 11 degrees and the lumbar segment with 4 degrees). All these can be seen in

the comparison table below:

In sagital plan, the T10 vertebra is blocked in extension and slides anterior (antero-

listezis), the group of vertebras T10, T11, T12, T13 is fixed and has very limited

mobility. The image is obtained by Spinal Mouse scanning on the 1st of June.2011.

21.03.2016 12

The following image is taken after 6 Bowen sessions (5th of July 2011) and shows the

alteration of the T10 tilting angle with 8 degrees (from +22 to +14 degrees), the mobility in

anterior flexion is improved, the alignment of the thoracic vertebral segment T10-T13, the

disappearance of the thoracic hyper kyfosis, etc. The hyper lordosis in the lumbar region

persists (the treatments must continue), as well as the sacrum flexion, the hyper mobility of

the thoracic spine in flexion and hypo mobility in extension of the lumbar spine.

CONCLUZII:

1. The Bowen-Bowtech therapy is very efficient (after only 6 sessions the

evolution was spectacular), the alignment, mobility and inter vertebral

angles were improved;

2. The efficiency of the therapy was proven by the significant alleviation of the

subjective symptoms (pain, respiratory insufficiency, kidney-urinary

symptoms were significant reduced). There were objective data to support

the results, by clinical osteopathic, postural examination and Spinal Mouse

scanning (static and moving images – flexion, extension, lateral tilt);

3. Of course the treatments must continue, with other specific Bowen

procedures, addressing the respiratory system, the kidney and urinary

system, the pelvis and lower limbs (knees, Hamstring, pelvis, sacrum, etc),

with lymphatic procedures and especially addressing the emotional issues.

4. We applied the sequence of procedures from the Scoliosis protocol, but we

always took into consideration the indications we were receiving from

the patient body, before each session.

5. During the 6 sessions we managed to balance the patient body, with

patience, continuing only when the body allowed us to apply new

procedures. We are convinced that this non invasive, very delicate

therapy, awakens, stimulates and orients the patient’s own healing

abilities, the “inner doctor”, to heal itself.

6. This therapy reminds us that „primum non nocere” (most important is not

to harm) and convinced us once again that “less is best”.

7. This therapy addresses the entire body and we noticed in this case, as well

as in others, that the balance that needs to be done acts always on the

body, but also on the emotional level and the soul.

We are adding also some charts (examples) which demonstrate the connections between the

vertebras and internal organs, the organic symptoms related to vertebras with osteopathic

lesion and the direct and indirect effect of the Bowen moves:
