Your Sciatic Nerve

The sciatic nerve is the longest and thickest nerve in the body.

Pathway : starting in the lower back (lumbar spine L4-L5 and sacral spine S1-S3), nerve roots converge to form the sciatic nerve. It exits the pelvis, runs deep under the gluteals, travels down the back of the thigh, splits above the knee into tibial, and common personal nerves that continue to the calf and foot.

Symptoms: if the sciatic nerve gets compressed, irritated or inflamed, you may experience;
*sharp shooting pain from back through buttock and down the leg, usually one side
*pins and needles
*numbness in leg or foot
*muscle weakness in the affected leg
*pain that worsens sitting, coughing or sneezing
*difficulty moving the foot or leg

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms and would like some help please call 02 60245814 or book online with one of our experienced practitioners.

Have you been doing your workout routine backwards?🏃‍♀️

Stop static stretching before your workout. Seriously. Here's what you should actually be doing:

BEFORE: Warm up with movement. Think light jogging, jumping jacks, arm circles, or dynamic stretches that keep you moving. You're literally warming up your muscles, increasing blood flow, and prepping your nervous system. Cold muscles that get stretched? Not helpful and potentially risky.

AFTER: Now stretch. Your muscles are warm, pliable, and ready to lengthen. This is when static stretching actually helps with flexibility, reduces muscle tension, and aids recovery. You're helping your body cool down gradually while improving your range of motion.

The quick science: Dynamic warm-ups activate your muscles and joints for the work ahead. Static stretching when you're cold can actually decrease power output and increase injury risk. But after exercise? That's when your muscles are most receptive to lengthening.

Your new routine: 5-10 min dynamic warm-up → workout → 5-10 min static stretching

Your body will thank you! 💪If you are looking for more useful advice come and see one of our experienced practitioners, call 02 60245814 or book online

Thanks Bowen Training Australia for this great information, too good not share!

For decades, the heart was believed to have little ability to repair itself after injury.

New Australian research* is gently reshaping that story.

Scientists have now observed human heart muscle cells regenerating after a heart attack — not enough to reverse damage, but enough to confirm something important:

The body has an inherent capacity to respond, adapt and repair — even in ways we are still discovering.

This research doesn’t suggest a cure.

But it does reinforce a foundational principle shared across many natural therapies:
the body is not passive — it is responsive.

In Bowen Therapy, we work with the body’s own intelligence rather than imposing force or correction.

Because when systems are supported and stress is reduced, the body often reveals capacities science is only beginning to fully understand.

Sometimes healing isn’t about doing more —

it’s about creating the conditions where the body can do what it already knows how to do.
