The Bowen Technique
The Bowen Technique originated in Australia, where it was developed by Tom Bowen over 40 years. In 1975, he was investigated by the Federal Commission on Alternative Therapies and they found he was successfully treating 13,000 patients a year. He taught only a few people, who continued his work after he passed away in 1982. Bowen is now one of the fastest growing therapies in Europe.
The Bowen technique balances the body to allow it to heal itself. It consists of a series of precise moves on specific points of the body. These moves are light and can be done on skin or through light clothing. There are essential short pauses between sets of moves to allow the body to fully integrate the stimulus received. This stimulus triggers the parasympathetic nervous system and puts the body into a state of deep relaxation. In this state the body is reminded how to heal and balance itself. It begins to correct itself and continues to respond for several days afterward unless interrupted by injury or strong external stimulation, including trauma, heat and bodywork. Sessions are commonly spaced seven days apart.
The essence of Bowen is simple, yet highly effective. One of the wonderful principles of this modality is that “less is more.” The moves are light, and it only takes a few precisely located moves to achieve profound results. Bowen is also holistic, working to heal the body not only physically, but on the mental and emotional levels as well. As the body progresses through its healing cycle, it experiences the release of stress, toxins, and old patterning which inhibit the body from achieving complete health.
Bowen has been found to significantly help people with frozen shoulder, neck & back pain, knee, ankle, wrist & elbow problems eg RSI, carpal tunnel, ganglion, headaches & migraines, meniere's disease, pelvis misalignment, scoliosis, sports injury, respiratory problems including colic & asthma, digestive disorders, hormone/ reproductive system conditions, bedwetting, jaw problems, sciatica, ADHD, lack of energy and stress & anxiety. In fact there is no condition the Bowen technique will not address.
Prior to treatment
It is very important an optimum eight glasses of pure water is drink prior to and during Bowen treatments. This will improve the effectiveness of Bowen and aid the body to flush out toxins. There should be no physical therapy i.e. massage or physiotherapy treatment a week prior to and a week after treatment.
Quarterly Bowen treatments are recommended to help maintain good health.

Crystal Healing is healing with the power of crystals. The energy of crystals has been useful to man for eons. In modern life we use them in our watches, computers and other electrical products. We are still learning about their effects and benefits.
Each crystal has its own power and property. In a crystal healing session they are used to balance the chakras (energy centres in the body), assist journeying within the self to resolve issues and past life work, whatever is appropriate at the time. Maxine is trained in the Melody method of crystal healing. Melody has published many books including Love is in the Earth and Laying on of Stones. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Love-Earth-Kaleidoscope-Crystals-Melody/dp/0962819034

The word Reiki means free passage of universal life (force) energy. The life force is very important; if it is low or blocked we become very vulnerable to illness. Whilst is it is high and freely flowing our immune system is energized and we are less likely to become ill. Whilst receiving Reiki your body pulls the energy in and sends it to areas where negativity is being held, charging this area with positive energy and raising the vibrational frequency. The lower vibration of the negative energy cannot withstand this surge of positive energy and will begin to dissipate.
Reyad Sekh Em combines Earth energy with the healing energies of Water, Fire, Air and Ether (Spirit) bringing together the elemental energies in a non-intrusive, but powerful combination. Areas of negative energy can be sensed and may require draining; this is then replaced with light energy to bring about homeostasis or balance. Originated in the UK by Joanna Bristow-Watkins.
