Helping you to make wellness your priority

Bowen Technique and Complementary Therapies on the Fylde Coast and Preston

About Me

Hello and welcome. I am Judith and I am qualified in The Bowen Technique, Reflexology and Indian Head Massage.

I took the decision to train in Bowen in 2012 after receiving regular Bowen sessions myself for a prolapsed disc in my lower back which had occurred several years earlier. I had tried many other therapies and although they had helped to a point, I was struggling with numbness in my left foot and could not walk without a limp until I gave Bowen a try.

Bowen was recommended to me by a friend and after experiencing the powerful way in which it changed my life for the better, I wanted my clients to reap the benefits of this amazing therapy, just as I have done.

I hold a Certificate of Proficiency in the Bowen Technique from (European) College of Bowen Studies (2012), a VTCT Level 3 Certificate in Indian Head Massage (2018) and a VTCT Level 3 Diploma in Reflexology (2021). I am a member of The Bowen Therapy Professional Association and take part in regular continuous professional development activities to improve my skills.

My Approach

My aim as a complementary therapist is to find the most appropriate treatment plan for you to help you feel better, reduce pain levels and promote a general sense of well-being.

Bowen

Bowen Therapy is a gentle but effective hands on holistic therapy which is suitable for all ages including babies. Each session is tailored to your presenting issues and individual needs.

During a treatment, a series of rolling type moves are made over muscles, tendons, ligaments and soft tissue. Short breaks are taken after each set of moves where I leave the room or step away from your body for a few minutes, allowing your body the time and space to respond to the moves and engage the parasympathetic nervous system.

The treatment can be given through light clothing.

Conditions that may respond to Bowen include but are not limited to back, neck, shoulder, knee and other joint pain, asthma, headaches and migraine, chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia and stress and anxiety.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a natural, non-invasive, drug-free therapy involving the application of gentle pressure to reflex areas in the feet that mirror the whole body. Reflexology is a deeply relaxing treatment which can help to create the necessary sense of balance and well-being that the body requires to heal any current disorders.

Benefits include relief of pain, relief from the effects of stress, encouraging better circulation, elimination of waste products and toxins from the body, improved nerve stimulation and immune system function and general relaxation

Indian Head Massage

An Indian Head Massage involves the application of a variety of massage and pressure techniques on the upper back, shoulders, neck, head and face. Massage oil may be used on the neck area.

Benefits of a treatment are that it may help to promote relaxation, a sense of well-being, improved sleep patterns, improved blood and lymph circulation, easing of aches and pains, relief of tension, improved energy levels and relief of headaches.

What issues can complementary therapies help with?

Here are a few of the more common conditions that can be supported:

Sinusitis

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Headaches and migraines

Stress & tension

Hay fever & other allergies

Asthma

Carpal tunnel / RSI

PMT, PMS & menstrual problems

Sciatica

Ankle & foot problems

Insomnia & sleep disorders

Back pain

Fees & Sessions

A Bowen treatment lasts between 30 and 60 minutes and an initial course of 3 treatments is recommended, during which time I would ask you not to have any other physical therapies, e.g. osteopathy, massage etc.

Bowen costs £45.00 per treatment.

A reflexology session lasts 45 minutes but please allow an hour for the whole treatment as it will include completion of a consultation form and aftercare advice.

Reflexology costs £40.00 per treatment.

An Indian Head Massage lasts 30 minutes and costs £30.00 per treatment.

Some personal health insurance plans e.g. Medicash may allow you to reclaim the cost of a treatment and full receipts can be provided on request, for this purpose.

Payments can be made by cash or bank transfer at all the venues I work at, and additionally payment can be made by debit or credit card at the Fit and Well Therapies clinic.

What my clients say...

“Judith is working her magic on my bursar injury. After only two sessions I am feeling so much better already. I can’t quite believe how this treatment is working for me. After 10 rounds of physiotherapy elsewhere, I thought I was at the end of the road. How glad am I that I found Judith and her Bowen treatment which has saved me from a life of pain.”

SS - Thornton

“I was suffering from stress and ill mental health when starting Bowen and I was exhausted. Bowen helped me to feel in control of my own mental health. I felt stronger, more stable and able to handle difficult situations with more ease and confidence.”

KW - St Annes

“I had a herniated disc which prevented me from walking normally. Since starting Bowen I have not taken any painkillers. My walking has improved considerably, my balance has become easier and my calf muscles are no longer tight.”

MK - Poulton-le-Fylde

“I had symptoms of anxiety and insomnia and some neck and back pain which were having a negative impact on my quality of life. After the treatments, I felt less anxious and more positive. Thanks to Judith’s expertise, professionalism and her empathetic and caring manner, I feel less stressed and much more able to function in everyday life. I would not hesitate to recommend Judith to anyone who may be experiencing similar problems.”

FA - Blackpool

“I had lower back and hip ache and was quite sceptical about this therapy, as with little hands-on approach I was not sure this would work. I trusted Judith and the process and a few days later I felt the aches and pains had shifted and after a week they had gone! It is very relaxing and beneficial, painless and non-invasive. I would definitely recommend.”

NW - Preston

“My two and a half month old baby had bad colic and nothing was helping. Bowen came highly recommended and after one treatment his colic had gone. He was no longer screaming for hours in discomfort- we could not believe it. Bowen was so gentle and pain free, did not take long and made us all so happy. We recommend Bowen to anyone - the results were amazing.”

MA - Cleveleys
