I can't recommend this treatment highly enough. Suffering from an annoying back problem I had tried a few things but Bowen is the only thing that has left me virtually pain free. KIrsti is a true professional and the gentle Bowen treatment has a relaxing effect too. I continue with treatment on a monthly basis to maintain my back and work is currently underway on a slowly improving dodgy shoulder. Such a gentle treatment - but such a big improvement. Big thanks to Kirsti and her "magic hands".
I had suffered for some years with sciatica and during this time I had tried different therapies which offered temporary relief. I decided I had nothing to lose in trying Bowen with Kirsti. I must admit I was a little sceptical when Kirsti first started working on me – how were these small movements going to make any difference to the pain and discomfort I felt? Whilst I don’t understand how Bowen works (and actually I don’t care) I can say it worked amazingly well for me; so much so that my sciatica is a distance memory. When I recently developed a very painful and restrictive shoulder problem I didn’t hesitate in contacting Kirsti. I am more than a little delighted to say the pain reduced within hours.
I first became aware of Bowen Technique when I read a newspaper article about 3 years ago on how the treatment can benefit TMJ (Temperomandibular Joint disorder). I had suffered with a painful and clicking jaw since having all of my wisdom teeth removed as a teenager. I am now 37 and had tried a variety of suggestions to try and resolve this problem. None of them worked, until I started visiting Kirsti a couple of years ago. This gentle technique helps the body to re-align and correct itself, and after having several sessions to treat my body posture and then my jaw and neck directly, I noticed a significant improvement in how my jaw feels and the symptoms that have plagued me for years have all but disappeared. I have since re-visited Kirsti to treat painful shin splints and a foot problem, which I suffered with when I took up running. Again, these problems have been successfully treated and I no longer suffer with any pain. I have recommended the Bowen Technique, in particular Kirsti, to many people including family members who have booked sessions which have benefited them. My attitude is that people pay to service and MOT their car, but how often do they service the health of their body? For the price that you pay, it is a relatively inexpensive way to treat the whole body, without pain or medication, and naturally.Kirsti is utterly professional, friendly, and genuinely interested in natural treatments or ideas to cure or help health problems. I cannot recommend her sessions highly enough. I, for one, will continue to visit Kirsti when I feel I need any help with my health. .Moreexpand_more
I have been successfully treated at this clinic for tennis elbow (incredibly painful), sciatica (now resolved) and now an ongoing problem with 2 crumbled discs in my spine. Health in Hand provides a very professional, caring service in immaculate surroundings. Like many people I allowed my condition and pain levels to increase before seeking treatment but nothing can be 'cured' in one session of anything and after 4 treatments I am now able to spend a day at work in heels (high! ) again without chronic pain in my hips. Kirsti is very honest in her evaluation of conditions and provides realistic guidance for future treatment. I had never heard of Bowen until reading about it in a women's magazine, but it is very gentle, non-invasive or painful, and does work for me.
