Personal Testimonials     Back Issues {I}

"I have known Steve for some 15 years, but only recently found out about his practicing the Bowen Technique. 
Due to an injury 4 years ago I had to have lower back surgery to rectify a prolapsed disc. The operation was a complete success, but i have to take rather a lot of pain killers to get on with day to day life.
During a passing visit to the office Steve mentioned he may be able to assist with the pain through something that he practices called the Bowen Technique. Now if you look this up on the internet it is explained far better than I ever could. To say I was a little sceptical would be an under statement. Although I am still a little unclear what Steve did to my back and how the process works.  I had one treatment session, then optimistically set out on  a cycle touring holiday for a week. After pedalling some 300 miles all round Devon and Cornwall I was amazed that I had not felt the need to take a single pain killer for the whole holiday.
What was provided was a first class service, handled in a professional manner. I honestly believe their is something positive in this technique , or else Steve has just got' magic hands'  Andy P. July 10

"The whole process of the Bowen treatment was made very easy and comfortable. After just 3 sessions my back pain was completely gone, improving my main sport of swimming."  Will F. Jun 10

"This is a letter of recommendation for Steve Ludbrook's practice of the Bowen Technique.
Two weeks ago I had treatment by Steve for 3 weeks previously I had lower back pain which had reached the point where I could no longer bend down to take of my boots, walk without pain , or sleep soundly.
After a single treatment by Steve I was able to walk out of the treatment room virtually pain free although I could still sense the injury in a very small area of my lower back. Side effects of the treatment were that I could stand straighter for a few hours and I fely physically relaxed.
After 3 or 4 more days of improvement I could no longer sense the injury. The pain never returned" David B. Feb 09

It is now over a year since the first session. I must admit that i was rather skeptical as i drove home after the treatment, thinking how can such a light and gentle treatment cure a back problem that has persisted for many years. As you know, I had 2 sessions and way behold the problem disappeared. A slight relapse occurred some 6 months later, probably due to overdoing it in the garden, but one further session and i was back to normal again
I have had no further problems . I can still do the garden, mix cement etc. without the back giving in. What can I say but thanks. 
The treatment has proved invaluable to me. The hardest part for you is to convince people that such delicate moves can cure/ease the problem experienced. Trevor S. July 10
