Visiting Australian praises Bowen Therapy
With respect to your recent article regarding Bowen Therapy and Ann Musselman, its accredited practitioner, based in Port Dover.
I was visiting Canada from Australia and I, unfortunately, found myself in a predicament that prevented me from almost any movement whatsoever. This was something that I've never had happen to me in the past and I was confined to my bed.
We were most fortunate to be able to contact Ann Musselman in Port Dover an incredibly highly qualified practitioner of the Bowen Therapy. A therapy first created by an Australian but now practiced in towns and cities both large and small throughout the world.
We could not believe our luck to come across someone so highly qualified to practice the Bowen therapy. The results were amazing, Ann had me up out of bed and walking following the first visit.
After visit 5 or 6, I must say, I had never felt so good for very many years, although 70 years old, I was indeed feeling more like 50 something. It is a very gentle treatment and Ann was a most caring and compassionate practitioner, I could not thank her enough and since returning to Australia have continued to feel able to get around and enjoy flexibility which I had not been able to do in the recent past.
Should anyone have any problems of any nature, I can without any hesitation recommend Ann Musselman to anyone in need of support and help. We intend to visit Port Dover again in 2018 and I will, of course, see Ann Musselman and seek her continued treatment whilst there, in fact, I look forward to it very much indeed.

I came to Ann desperate for relief from pain after three surgeries and chemotherapy. My Bowen treatments with Ann have greatly improved my condition and I am now able to return to normal life. The treatments have also helped to relieve depression and menopausal symptoms, as well as congestion and allergy symptoms.
Bowen Therapy has greatly contributed to my healing. Thanks Ann!

Knee Pain
Arthritis has affected my knees to the point where I require a full knee replacement. As this is not the best option at this time, I have sought ways to ease the pain and ensure that the knee replacement is done at the optimal time in the future. I have worn a custom brace on my right knee for over a year and do a home physio program consisting of stretches twice a day. The pain continued to affect my movement requiring that I use the combination of my brace and a cane for walking. I also receive steroid shots in both knees every three months.
Fortunately, Ann introduced me to Bowen therapy. After my first treatment, I could feel that something was different. I felt relaxed and left the treatment session walking with more ease. After 6 treatments, I went on a vacation to Disney and was able to walk with my cane and brace. However, the big change was, I only wore the brace for the heavy walking days.....and my feet got tired before my knees wore out. Since the Bowen therapy and my last set of needles, I have not worn my brace more than the few days at Disney. I am actually doing Christmas shopping without the support of my brace. The discomfort in my knees is much more manageable, and when I told the surgeon about my progress with the Bowen therapy since my last visit to him, he was very pleased with this success. It has been a few weeks now since I have had a Bowen treatment, and I am feeling the same - walking for longer distances with less discomfort. Shopping is no longer as painful as it used to be and I am once again enjoying activities that used to bring me pain. The Bowen therapy has made my pain and discomfort much more manageable.
Thanks Bowen.....Thanks Ann.

Cancer
I had been diagnosed with Cancer. The doctor didn't feel I would live to celebrate my 80th birthday on September 1st, 2012. In August 2012 my granddaughter was at Ann's receiving a Bowen Therapy treatment and I had volunteered to pick her up. I might add this is my second granddaughter to have been helped with healing with the Bowen treatments at Ann's. I had terrible neck pain and when I mentioned it. Ann did a few moves and I was amazed at the relief I felt instantly!
I began weekly Bowen treatments myself the next week and experienced energy and much relief from the pain that was in my lower abdomen and neck. I felt so much better and alive after the sessions. My cancer kept growing, the Bowen kept the pain at bay for awhile after the treatments and I always felt so good for the rest of the day. My neck pain was virtually gone! As the cancer progressed I was given patches of medication which caused great pain with constipation. I was fortunate that Ann was finishing her Bowen SP2 Masters Degree and had learned how to help in this
scenario and help relieve my bowels it did!
Ann has been attending my home these past weeks as the medication has made me very tired and I don't go out. My apetite is diminishing, however I get very sick to my stomach. Bowen has a technique that eases this and has made my days more bearable. Bowen has been a great comfort as I near my travelling to the other side!
P.S. I went to Los Vegas with my daughter and husband for New Years! Bowen works!

Fibromyalgia
I've suffered horribly from fibromyalgia - over 17 years! Touching me even lightly caused great pain. After the 1st bowen treatment I was pain free for 3 days! 2nd treatment 5 days and my family and friends noticed a wonderfully big difference in me. After the third treatment my husband was able to hug me for the first time in many years - without it hurting. You don't realize how much pain fibromyalgia causes as you become consumed with the pain. I took a chance and tried Bowen Therapy with Ann and my life has been changed dramatically. My life is great, I can go out and enjoy time with my girlfriends and family. I am smiling, happy and am myself again. I have been able to return to my business part time which is great.
I missed out on a lot of things especially the hugs from and to my grandchildren, with Bowen I can now enjoy my grandchildren and their activities. i can sleep through the night again without pain after years of lack of sleep. I can take walks again where I couldn't before, I can do normal daily routines again. I'm pain free and enjoying life to the fullest.

Lupus and Fibromyalgia
When I began Bowen Therapy with Ann I reached out to her because of joint and all over physical pain. It had reached a point where there were times that all I could do was curl up under the heated throw and not move but even that hurt. Along with this was a heavy fatigue level.
Having met Ann previously as an event that she provided for people to learn how to create wreathes, she told me about Bowen Therapy that she was excitedly working on. Having always been interested in what would be deemed as alternative therapies... (click here to read the whole story).

Multiple Sclerosis
I am 77 years old and have suffered with MS for over 17 years, although I do believe I had my first attack when I was 30 years old - 47 years ago, however, they could not diagnoise it as they did not have MRI's, they said it was from stress.
In 2011 a friend of mine Ann saw that I was exhausted, in considerable pain and that I had to wear my dark sunglasses, use my cane for support and balance and that my skin was as white as snow. On her insistance I went to her for Bowen Therapy the next day.
When I arrived I could barely get out of my vehicle and the short walk to her door was very painful. The four steps that met me on the way to the treatment room were a great challenge!
An hour later after a very gentle and relaxing treatment I was able to my great surprise without any difficulty walk without the use of my cane and the stairs were no challenge whatsoever. I felt energized, relaxed and on top of the world, a brand new woman!
I attended weekly for four weeks feeling stronger and more energetic with longer periods of relief from MS each time. I must add that I had had micorscopic surgery on both my knees prior to my Bowen treatments and the pain in both no longer bothered me.
Ann suggested after four consecutive weeks of treatments and my feeling very well that I have treatments when I felt symptoms of tiredness, pain etc. and my next appointment was in a months time. After that treatment I enjoyed three months relief and then I returned a full five months later as I had found
my right knee was giving me pain. Ann did Bowen and the relief was amazing.
I am a very busy woman with my Church and community volunteering, with the MS society. I enjoy the many group studies and do hospital volunteering as well.
Bowen has made my days and life brighter, more energized and amazingly pain free. I must add that the girls where I do my Banking commented right after my first and many times after that on how wonderful I looked again. I highly recommend people inquire and try Bowen as it works on balancing the body so
that it works at it's peak.

Finally Some Relief After 4 Years of Suffering...
I suffer with severe debilitating pain for the past 4 years following knee replacement surgery. After my first Bowen Treatment, with practitioner Ann Mussleman , I was able to walk without a cane or knee brace. I was also able to resume my normal life style, which up until that time had been impossible.
Subsequent Bowmen Treatments relieved depression, knee swelling, hip and lower back pain. Bowen Therapy has truly changed my life….

No More Daily Puffers and Finally We Can Sleep Through the Night
I could count on one hand the number of uninterrupted nights I had in two and half years. My little guy would wake up several times a night and we never really knew why but we would sometimes have to spend half the night if not the whole night sleeping next to him (toddler beds are not very comfortable for adults) or on the couch holding him. Since he had his Bowen Therapy he sleeps through most nights and so do we.
But the main reason I wanted him to get Bowen treatments was for his asthma, he was on a puffer twice a day and we had another for emergencies or when he got a cold. And when he did get a cold, we would have to give him this other puffer every four hours. Since Bowen, I only take out the puffers when he gets a cold.

Scoliosis

For man years, I have suffered from back pain, and even missed days of school and work because of the discomfort. To relieve some of the pain over the years, I have gotten massages, as well as attempted many other different kinds of treatments, which seemed to help on short-term basis. Since attending Bowen Therapy with Ann Musselman from Port Dover ON. I have noticed a tremendous improvement in my posture and the back pain is virtually nonexistent. Daring therapy, I could feel movement and vibrations travel through my body, I highly recommend Bowen treatment to anyone experiencing a posture disorder, as it has worked very well for me!!"

Bipolar Disorder
I have suffered with crippling bipolar II disorder for over forty years, and have been on a various array of medications during that time. Last year quite by accident I met Ann L'Ecuyer while purchasing flowers at her shop in Port Dover Ontario.
She mentioned to me at the time some therapy she practiced and included a card with the flowers. I didn't take a lot of notice at the time because as with most things, the activity of the moment tends to preclude other things going on.
When I got home that day, I took the Flowers by Ann business card and the therapy card and added them to my card collection. Then I noticed the word Bowen on the therapy card and I smiled because as a professional photographer it rang a bell as I use something called Bowen mounts on all my strobe equipment.
On a subsequent visit to the flower shop to purchase a beautiful arrangement for a friend, I was aware that she did not mention the Bowen therapy, however over the ensuing months I learned more about Bowen and what it claimed to do.
Then in March of this year I was in contact with Ann on the phone and was slipping rapidly into the deep cave of a depression episode. She actually drove to my place to help me, but I could not let anyone see me in this condition, the sinister place I go to about seven times a year. I would not open the door, but she just waited until I did.
It was about 8 p.m. and I was four or five hours from total blackness which generally lasted from one to three days. I felt both horrible and embarrassed to be with her while being in this awful and private place.
She did some Bowen moves on me and just held me. I had no feelings, no movement and nothing that would indicate that anything at all was changing. But two hours later, she left and I was sitting at the computer working of some photography.
To this day I don't fully understand what happened that night, but after a few more Bowen treatments at her treatment room in Port Dover I have been free of those crippling drops into hell for 76 days.
Something truly wonderful is happening here...

Physical and Mental Relief

Back Pain
"After suffering from constant back pain for many years due to a ruptured disc in my lower back, it was mentioned that I should try Bowen Therapy, something I never heard about or had any idea what was involved. I am first of all a sceptic when it comes to something like this or psychics or any other what I call out there methods. However, shortly after the first treatment, I noticed a change in my back. Instead of pain, what I was feeling related more to sore or stiff muscles, a much more tolerated feeling. After the second treatment, there really wasn't any noticeable discomfort at all, almost, as a normal back would feel like. I could walk uptown and back without any pain, discomfort at all and haven't had to take any kind of pain medication for three weeks now. I find if I overdo it with some strenuous work, I do feel something in my back but there again, it's related to sore or stiff muscles not pain and that goes away as well. I'm not sure how this works but I accept it for how it has helped me and I give thanks to Ann Musselman (our local Bowen Therapist) for this relief and would recommend it for anyone that has any ailments to give it a try for their own
benefit."

Migraines
"When I started getting Bowen treatments, I had brutal migraines. My wisdom teeth are trying to grow in and are shifting all the teeth in my mouth. There were mornings I couldn’t go to work for the migraines and vomiting they induced. Bowen treatments are very calming, relaxing and work. It’s amazing how a few movements by Ann, could take away years of pain. I was amazed how much it worked for me. Migraines were headaches (if that) and the sensitivity to light was gone. After a treatment you’re supposed to drink water and walk around every half hour. I haven’t had treatments in almost a year, but I still use that philosophy for any headaches. If I feel one coming on I start drinking water, in most cases that’s all my system needs to rid itself of bad toxins. Water, water, water. Bowen works on anything from headaches to backaches, basically anything. I highly suggest a treatment. Sometimes it takes one, and then there are maintenance treatments to keep your system in line. As relaxing as a massage, Bowen is a series of small movements that focuses on nerve endings to align your body to work properly. "

Young Mother Gets Relief
Being the mother of two young boys, my arms don’t get much rest; between holding them, pushing them in a stroller on uneven sidewalks and everything else involved in taking care of a family – I had developed some pain in my left shoulder and upper arm. It became very difficult to hold my youngest for long periods of time (which he always required). My muscles would get to the point of burning from fatigue.
I didn’t really want to go see my doctor and have to go through a battery of tests. I didn’t really have the time and I wanted fast relief. I had met Ann during a booking signing event a few months prior to getting treatment and decided to give Bowen a try. I’m really glad I did!
After only a few sessions, my shoulder and arm are pain free. She even helped me with pain in my knees from running and released stress from my neck and back.
Bowenwork has helped me both physically and mentally.
Thank you, Ann!

Scoliosis - Arthritis in Lower Back
I have suffered with scoliosis and arthritis in my lower back for many years. After Bowen sessions with Ann the the frequency and severity of symptoms caused by these conditions have been greatly reduced. Bowen Therapy has allowed me to more fully participate in activities I enjoy, including golf, curling and gardening. I have realized much greater success with Bowen Therapy versus other forms of more traditional therapies that I have tried in the past.

Irregular Painful Menses
Twenty three years of absolute pain and discomfort and irregularity ~ gone after one appointment, I cannot thank you enough for this miraculous change in my health each month. It has been a life changing experience to say the least, thank you! If and when the Hot Flashes begin I will definitely be back for Bowen! I would encourage every woman from 13 and up to take control of their lives and not live with pain every month! Thank you Bowen Therapy!

Ann, I want to thank you (and Bowen) for the work that you have done on me. I have had treatments with many modalities and Bowen has been the best by far as an overall, lasting treatment. It is so gentle it's hard to believe that it can be useful but the results are amazing.
When I first came to you I could hardly walk because of lower back pain and standing for more than about 10 minutes could be almost crippling. I have spent thousands of dollars over a few years with really good, well supported shoes and inserts, A.R.T., chiropractors, a special pelvis support belt, all to no avail.
Your first Bowen session with me was to realign my body structurally. It was wonderful to feel tall and straight again.
After that you addressed several other issues this poor old body (late 60's) has accumulated.
Chronic sinus infection ---gone
TMJ -- Still clicks now and again but no longer locks or allows my jaw to slide sideways.
Pelvic floor weakness --- It has taken about 4 Bowen sessions to get this to hold but I can walk and stand comfortably for reasonable lengths of time and feel like with 1 or 2 sessions I will be able to run and skip with my grandchildren (something I have regretted missing out on with the older one).
I know that the body has the innate ability to heal itself but Bowen sure helps it find its way and gives it the push it needs to get started.
With all of the good stuff that's happening that I am aware of I can only imagine what exciting, good stuff is happening inside where the results are not so easily noticed but more vital to good health.
Thank you Ann -- it's well worth the hour drive. Thank you Bowen.

IBS - Restless Leg Syndrome - Flight & Fight Mode
Hi Ann, I had great benefits from the treatments that you gave me. Since I've been back home and back to work; as well as dealing with the craziness of the people in my life. I've had no anxiety, which was something that you treated and was something that had been following me around my daily (crazy) life for years. The night of my restless leg therapy was funny because i was lying in bed that night with my jello=like legs just lying there thinking how nice and relaxing it was not to have my legs jumping around, feeling like they 're just relaxing, it was a totally weird feeling. My original therapy with you was for balancing. It felt like the precurser to the other treatments, just getting me balanced and ready for what was to come. Even though I only had the three treatments, due to my lack of time in Port Dover, the lasting effects have helped me continue feeling the benefits as if I had just received them.

I approached Bowen therapy because while working as a Disability Case Manager, I had several contacts with Alternative Medical Treatments. Bowen Therapy specifically treated my areas of concern. The results of Bowen Therapy were very positive. One thing I liked about Bowen Therapy was the gentle and Non-invasive treatment. I found the experience satisfactory. I would recommend Ann to people as an alternative medical treatment.

This past week I have been feeling pretty good overall. The damp weather brought some achiness to my lower back and left lower leg/foot but an Epsom bath and a couple of aspirin took care of that and helped me sleep through the night.
My neck and back have definitely improved over the last month and a half with the Bowen Therapy.
Thanks soooo much!! Wishing you a very Merry Xmas and holiday season!

My Testimonial on my experience with Ann for Bowen Therapy
I heard first about Ann at the Simcoe Natural Food Centre when getting some pain cream. It was for a relative suffering from severe sciatica pain and pacing the floors all day couldn’t get sleep or even get up the stairs. He was going for therapy for about a month and I said obviously that isn’t working for you so I suggested he try this Bowen. The ladies there were very helpful and she and even got for the same thing and mentioned she crawled up the stairs and came out walking.
I watched his progress and decided that I wanted to do this for myself. I was in a car accident about 3 years ago had whiplash and a very sore chest from the seat belt, I also had other issues with scoliosis, back pain from deteriorated disks for years, and just suffered through with the pain. I also have a couple of lovely hammertoes. I am one for trying to stay healthy without of a lot of medication. I read some of the testimonials with their good results. Why not try this as an alternative?
I talked with Ann and booked some sessions, well I am impressed. The first thing is you want to be positive about getting better for you, very important. Ann has worked on my different issues. I must admit I was sore after a few sessions but each day got better and I realized I did have to take time to rest. I find myself hearing Ann’s voice don’t cross your legs and sit straight and ALWAYS when you get up use both feet on the ground. She worked hard to get my scoliosis straight and I want to keep it that way. The pressure on my neck is so much better, especially when you work on a computer every day. Every night I do enjoy by a bath with the Epsom salts it does really help with the healing process. Remember this didn’t happen overnight. The techniques she has done with the liver, kidney, lungs and after when she left the room my body started gurgling and I wondered what was happening and Ann advised it means this is working. After a session, I would feel tired but I knew it was working and I do feel better about myself. My Hammertoes are coming down and not so crooked, the pain would resonate to them and they felt like they were just booming with pain. Much more tolerable. I am 69 and have 7 grandchildren and I knew I had to do this for me to be a better person because if you are not happy you really get to make anyone else happy. I know that in the future if I acquire other issues I certainly know where to go. I would like my husband to go as well even for a session or two for his few issues. I know he would benefit from Bowen.
I found Ann a very compassionate and caring person who truly does want people to get better. I am still working on telling myself in the mirror that I do love myself. This is a big step and hard to do.
I am going to go for the Body Code to release all those hidden thoughts and fears that I have suppressed over the years to totally heal me for my body, soul, and mind. I am so looking forward to this and please do keep the faith and you do get better. I honestly recommend you call Ann and talk with her, what do you have to lose and everything to gain.
