Revive With Bowen Understanding Canine Bowen Therapy

Nisha’s passion for animals, especially dogs, has always been a driving force in her life. As the proud owner of three dogs herself, Nisha understands the importance of maintaining a pet’s health and mobility, which is what led her to pursue this specialised therapy.

Bowen therapy, a gentle and holistic technique, involves movements of specific muscles and connective tissue. In dogs, it helps stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. Nisha’s journey into this field started as a personal endeavour but has now evolved into a flourishing practice with a loyal client base. Over the years, she has worked with a range of conditions in pets, including arthritis, hip dysplasia, IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease), degenerative myelopathy, and general mobility and joint issues. These conditions can be debilitating and affect your pet’s overall quality of life.

Holistic healing for your furry friend

The therapy offers a non-invasive, drug-free approach to managing these issues, helping pets regain their range of motion, improve circulation, and alleviate pain. Her commitment to her canine clients is evident through the trust her clients place in her, as well as the steady stream of referrals she receives.

As a certified Bach flower therapist and reiki healer, Nisha integrates these healing modalities into her practice, providing a comprehensive approach to animal wellness. Bach flower remedies are especially helpful in calming anxious or stressed dogs, while reiki allows her to promote energetic healing.

Why Canine Bowen Therapy?

Canine Bowen therapy is a gentle, holistic approach that targets the body’s muscles and soft tissues. Using a series of subtle, rolling movements on your pet’s body, this therapy stimulates healing by activating the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes relaxation and recovery. It can help alleviate pain, improve mobility, and support the overall well-being of your furry friend.

Many pet parents seek Bowen therapy for their pet when they notice issues like stiffness, discomfort, or reduced mobility. Some pets may be recovering from surgery or injury, while others may have chronic conditions like arthritis or hip dysplasia. Her specialised approach has helped many pets regain their ability to move more comfortably and improve their quality of life.

Sneaky Symptoms

As a pet parent, keep an eye out for these signs and symptoms–

• Stiffness or reluctance to move
• Limping or favouring one leg
• Difficulty standing up or lying down
• Reduced energy levels or lethargy
• Sensitivity to touch or discomfort when being petted
• Changes in gait, such as a wobbly or unsteady walk
• Trouble climbing stairs or getting into the car

If you notice any of these signs, you should consult a Bowen therapist and see if Bowen therapy can improve the condition of your pet.

Shining moments and success stories

Over the years, Nisha has worked with countless pets, each presenting unique challenges. One of her most rewarding experiences involved a pet named Zane who had arthritis and was struggling with mobility. After several Bowen sessions, Zane showed marked improvement in his ability to walk, climb stairs, and even enjoyed a family holiday trekking in the hills with his family.

Another client, Cleo who was struggling with hip dysplasia, was facing potential surgery when the pet parents decided to try Bowen therapy first. After consistent sessions with Nisha, his condition stabilised, and surgery was no longer required and his pain also reduced.

These stories are a testament to the effectiveness of this therapy in managing various canine health issues.
