Homoeopathy & Bowen
Homoeopathy & Bowen by Simone Guest SRN MCCH MARH MBTER The spur to writing this article was attending a meeting with some 25 homeopaths recently. I volunteered to be a guinea pig in an audience participation exercise exploring homeopathy and the treatment of asthma. When my turn came to speak, I said that my first line of treatment would be to use the Bowen Technique because it has such a good success rate. Presented with someone with asthma, I would use Bowen for the first two or three sessions and watch what happened. Then I would add homeopathy (if necessary and, yes, it can be IF!). The “if” seemed to take the audience by surprise! During the lunch break, three homeopaths approached me to ask for more details. I left out some leaflets concerning Bowen – and all these were taken. I then realised that there is a great deal of interest in the Bowen Technique among homeopaths yet little knowledge which seems a pity when the two therapies are very compatible, either in tandem or given at separate sessions. My Introduction to the Bowen Technique Homeopathic training completed, I was starting to practise and seeing some patients with musculo-skeletal pain which did not always respond to homeopathy. There is a growing awareness amongst some experienced homeopaths that homeopathy does not always have all the answers, that sometimes other things are necessary. Indeed, Hahnemann wrote in The Organon of the need for good diet, exercise, massage and baths. Here I must emphasise, however, that Bowen is not a form of massage. -

Therefore, I am using this plat- form to address some issues that have come to my attention. Since the cost for out-of-town memberships to our Senior Center went up in January 2020, there have been a few miscon- ceptions that have come to my attention. First and foremost, the one rumor that I would definitely like to address is the story going around that the Prospect Town Council raised the dues of our out-of-town members because they are trying to “get rid” of the non-residents that come here. The story goes that the Town Council is trying to keep our Senior Center strictly for Prospect residents only. Nothing could be further from the truth. I value the out-of-town members who come here. I feel they have contributed significantly to the growth of our Senior Center. Many of these members run programs here and volun- teer in a number of different capacities. They are my lifeline and help me in ways that I could never repay them for. I and the Town Council members would never want to “get rid” of them. I will tell you point blank why the Town Council decided to raise membership dues for out- of-town members. -

According to acupuncture theory, these acupuncture points lie along meridians along which qi, a kind of vital energy, is said to flow. There is no generally-accepted anatomical or histological basis for these concepts, and modern acupuncturists tend to view them in functional rather than structural terms, (as a useful metaphor in guiding evaluation and care of patients). Acupuncture is thought to have originated in China and is most commonly associated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Different types of acupuncture (Classical Chinese, Japanese acupuncture) are practiced and taught throughout the world. Bowen Technique The Bowen Technique is one version of a group of technical interpretations of the work of Australian osteopath Tom Bowen (1916–1982) known as Bowen Therapy, which is a holistic system of healing. -
