The Natural Therapy Expert Advisory Review Panel has completed its investigation into reinstating health fund rebates for complementary therapies.

Their report is due to reach Health and Aged Care Minister Mark Butler by the end of the year.

Bowen Therapy is a uniquely Australian modality that supports health, the economy, and our communities.

We’ve sent Minister Butler a letter highlighting Bowen's impact and the need for health fund rebates to support both practitioners and clients.

You can help too!

By sending a letter in support, or simply signing the petition, you can make your voice heard. We’ve made it easy — just click the link below to open a pre-written email.

Together, let’s keep Bowen Therapy thriving in Australia!

Nourishment……a basic requirement for growth, good health, strength, and resilience.

Seek out the things that nourish you.

Good food, fine company, creative expression, laughter, movement, restorative body practises……..

What brings you ease, contentment and helps you flourish?

Turbulence…
Eddies…
…. Unsettling the flow

It is not uncommon to find ourselves in this swirl when least expected, through disease, suffering, pain, grief….

Recently I needed to pull back, give myself the time and space to recover and nourish myself through illness.

Self-Care…

I like to encourage clients to develop awareness of their ‘felt’ sense….
Feel into the question…..
What do I notice right now?
How is my body feeling?
Does this feel good?
Will this activity aggravate my progress at present?
Am I pushing through “something” because I feel I have to, regardless of how I am feeling physically, mentally, emotionally?
Can I give myself the time and space to feel what I need to feel at this moment?

Self-care is fundamental to our well being.

It requires us to check in, looking at ourselves through a compassionate lens.

What did I need to support myself?

Rest, warmth, sleep, nutritious drinks, sitting in the sunshine, not expecting too much of myself. Rescheduling clients until I could properly support them.

It cannot be a race.

How do you support yourself through times of need?

Health is to be treasured, not to be careless with.
Self care is essential for me to be at my best to support others in their time of need.

Self care brings ……
Nourishment
Resilience
Stamina …….. go for it!

I feel ……
“Buoyant”
“Lightness”
“Floating”
“Expansion”
“Ease”

Excited to share my latest blog post on the importance of finding balance in everyday life. Enjoy.

I have learned that balance is not about finding perfection. It’s about making regular adjustments so as not to compromise our needs to the point of depleting or neglecting our health and happiness.

Relaxation….
Create a lull, a space to step away from the pressures of life.
Doesn’t take long …. to drop in to that state of ease…..

The allure of nature ….
soothed by the ebb & flow of life

Bowen therapy is my way to revitalise energy and flow. This unique & gentle body work helps to ease pain and improve flexibility by prompting the body to ‘let go’ muscle tension. Deep relaxation is experienced as the body begins to respond ….. What is your ‘go to’ when you need a boost?

Bowen Therapy & TRE are two practises helping you find ease from muscle tension, or an over active nervous system whilst also supporting your body's healing processes.
Take a peek at my clinic… you are welcome.
