Can Bowen treatment help sciatica?
Yes Absolutely! When sciatica occurs the Sciatic Nerve, that runs from the spinal cord down each leg, begins to become compressed by tight and tense muscles in the Lower back, Glutes, all the muscles in your legs and feet causing a great deal of pain and discomfort. This is often caused by overweighting one leg, being sat for long periods of time or a sudden jarring. Bowen helps re-create alignment and relaxation in these muscles therefore relieving the pain. Bowen can also help prevent Sciatica from reoccurring with regular treatments.
