A lot of people seem to think they are sore because that’s
part of life, part of getting older.
This is not
necessarily through. Our body doesn’t like being sore, it’s just that it
doesn’t know how to make itself better.
The Bowen
can help with this.
Each move we
do on the body is a signal to the body of how to realign itself.
So after the
treatment the body is going to adjust itself and put itself back into alignment.
This might take a couple of days, but because the body has done it itself
instead of being pushed back into place it is more likely to stay like this.
When the
body is pushed back into place the muscles (muscles have a muscle memory) will
go back to what they remember before they had the treatment hence your back to
being sore again.
I hear all
the time: “I have been there or I have had such and such treatment, but it only
last a couple of days”.
Now you know
why, the body goes back to what it was before that particular treatment because
that’s what the muscles remember.
After Bowen
the muscles take on a new position by themself and that’s why the muscle memory
will be replaced with the new position the muscles are in.
It might
take a couple of days for the body to do so as it usually takes a couple of
days for the body to get sore again after some other types of treatment.
