Purple Stools

This almost sounds like Dr Seuss:

"I wonder why I haven't seen,
A purple stool from inside of me."

Our bowel elimination during a colonic will tell a practitioner many things about the workings of the GI tract. Mucus can be seen on the stool, and the color is determined by many factors. Red meat eaters will have a dark brown stool, whereas those that eat fish and fowl will have a medium brown stool. Vegetarians will have a tan stool but it will be "colored" with the types of food they eat.

If a vegetarian juices lots of carrots, the stool will be orange, beets will turn it red (almost cerise in color) and taking green drink or chlorella will make the stool greenish tan.

So a few week ago, a regular client came in for his routine treatment. And what did I see but a purple stool.

After a moment of questions, he admitted to two things: eating a pint of blueberries and drinking beet juice. Mystery solved.

And I must say: "I think I learn something every day."

There's so much value in cleansing and rejuvenation. Check out the Cellular Detox and Colon Cleanse as well as the At Home Colon Kits.

"I always take one quick glance,
A healthy stool will make me dance."

I’m Visiting From England

I met such a lovely lady this last week.

LN has spent that last 6 weeks in the US - four weeks on the east coast, the last two in Arizona and the next two weeks on the west. She emailed me hoping to set an appointment for a Bowen treatment.
"I've had Bowen for 10 years, and my back is hurting from all the different hotels beds. Can you help?"
Two days later was her session. I understood her pain, since she suffers from a spinal curvature called "scoliosis". As I began my "little plucking motions" she sighed and relaxed into the massage table.

As she left, she hugged me and said:
"Bowen always works for me, and your treatment was divine. Thanks."
What a lovely lady to meet and perhaps when I make it across the pond, I'll visit her homeland too.

Balance is the Answer

In our world of instant messaging and fast foods, one doesn't necessarily like to look at moderation and balance. “We want it now!” is a frequent mantra. One of my friends is on the “energy saver plan” for electrical use and from 3 PM to 6 PM, he needs to cut his usage. He takes this time to shut off the computer, and all the other devices and actually “become analogue” in his behavior. He's taking this time to meditate, goal set, actually read a book (not an eBook either), and teach himself a new language. One can turn the thermostat up a couple of degrees, remove some excess clothing and enjoy a cooling glass of iced green tea.

Perhaps we have become so “techie” that we've lost touch with our beautiful world. By bringing balance back into our daily lives, one actually regulates many of their functions. When one eats their meals with consciousness, the flavors are richer and tasteful. When one walks a preserve trail, it’s a time to breathe in the richness of the desert and all of her beauty. Not just walk the walk, but embrace the entire walk, like the lizard that darts under the mesquite bush or the cottontail rabbit that scurries out of the way.

Bringing this balance into our health is equally important. One can find greater vitality by routinely taking the time to cleanse. Early winter is “liver cleansing time” according to the body meridians. Consider taking an appropriate supplement to support the detoxification pathways of ones liver as well as colon irrigation and reflorastation with multiple probiotics. This strengthens the immune system so that one goes into the fall and winter with less susceptibility to colds and flu. While we might not be thinking of winter yet, the body's rhythms are recognizing the changing of the seasons; so it's time for us to honor our processes and bring balance into our life.

You Gotta Have GUTS has so much information

Dear Dr Victoria

When I was in your office for my treatment, I picked up the office copy of You Gotta Have GUTS and began reading parts of your book. WOW. I didn't purchase a copy at the time. I took my "homework sheets" with me and several articles you had written and read through every word. And only then did I realize that I needed all the information in your book.

So, (as you know) on my second treatment I bought a copy and you even autographed it for me. I never thought that my "guts" would be such an inspiring read, but you have done that, and so much more.

You have written information I didn't even know I needed to know about: you have helped the entire range of colon problems: severe constipation, irritable bowels, parasite cleansing, liver cleansing, and those without colon problems who have other health problems. You've helped babies that are brand new and elderly in their much later years, and dogs and cats too. It's good to know that you'll always be able to help me!

Thanks for taking the time to write about a very sensitive topic, make it interesting, and help me
understand how precious and special my guts actually are.

See you when I need you,
ST

Simple technique for remarkable pain relief:

This morning was an excellent day because I received this email:
“I promised that I would tell you my success stories. This week I have had too many stories to write down. The common denominator for all of the stories is that with just a few 'Bowen' moves, people look up with wonder and ask where the pain went. ‘That's just Bowen’ is the only response I have to that.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge of this wonderful work.
Sincerely, GM”

I'm so proud to offer a DVD program that most anyone can apply in a short amount of time. The DVD is close up and clear video. The menu allows one to practice one section over and over until they feel comfortable with that section. The "big" words - that is medical terms - are in the manual. So on the DVD, I use common landmarks like “cap of the shoulder” or “notch in the throat” - however, for the practitioner that wants the technical information, it is in the manual. 

What I really like are the two wall charts - they are “cheat sheets” so you can look at them to refresh your memory and not forget an important move. (Usually when learning a new technique, I have to prop the manual on the back or abdomen and try to work. By having wall charts, one quick glance shows me the move and direction.) I laminated mine at the local print shop and stapled them to my wall in my treatment room.

Check out the products page, as there is a special offer - take advantage of it today. Offer your family and friends pain relief from: back pain, shoulder pain, sciatic pain, even headache pain. Bowmann’s Bowen is easy to learn and wonderful to offer to others.

"I wish I had found you sooner!"

That comment is such a compliment to my work. I'm always appreciative when I receive such praise. But mostly I'm grateful that the work I do is effective.

Efficient is doing the job right.
Effective is doing the right job.

Virginia came in to see me with a sore right side: the hip, the low back, even her shoulder hurt. I gave her one Bowmann's Bowen treatment, taught her how to stand up evenly, and gave her a short homework assignment. (Drink lots of water, walk if you feel like it and wait until next week.)

Well, today was next week and everything is doing so much better. The right hip didn't hold completely, but it's so much better. (I guess that's why I suggest a second treatment.) As she was leaving, she said those magical words. "I wish I had found you sooner."

Isn't the important thing to find it now. To get relief for low back pain, shoulder pain, especially frozen shoulders, sciatica pain. Any kind of pain. Give it a try. Check out the services at myrealhealth.com

Cleansing and Rejuvenation

   One is so often bombarded with pollution, adulterated food laced with antibiotics and pesticides (yes, even our organic food is rained on by acid rain) and congestion. As these stresses mount, many people experience symptoms such as headaches, rashes, increased allergies and / or environmental illness. Some have severe constipation, others have skin rashes and eruptions, and then there are those yeast infections, which are called candida, or candidiasis. This can show up as a vaginal discharge or yucky white film on the tongue, called thrush. (Even babies get thrush and they are miserable when it occurs. More about babies later.)
   What can actually be done? Detoxification is a valuable way to rid the body of many of these toxins, but let us not forget to rebuild our cells in the process. I think it would be hard for each of us to "clean the garage one day, the attic the next, the basement the day after, and finally till the garden after that." Perhaps that seems like a strange comment here, but I see many individuals who don't take sufficient time to rebuild, rest and rejuvenate between cleansing periods.
   Let's take a look at a possible approach to cleansing. First of all, one would best assist the body by starting any program with thorough colon irrigation followed by an appropriate infusion of intestinal bacteria (At Home Colon Kit). I developed an easy application of this, called "Reflorastation." When this is included in the treatment, or done in the privacy of one's home, the large intestine is ready and willing to carry off the debris after its completion of the decomposition of food.
   Next, one would need an evaluation to determine the priority of cleansing what organs and in what order. One person might have weak kidneys, another a sluggish liver or malfunctioning gallbladder.
  Then a suitable program can be started. After cleansing a particular organ or system, time should be devoted to rebuilding it. Proper nutrition and supplementation can do this. Systematically, one can then address the next organ or system until we have completed the process. Routinely, or annually, depending on exposure can also help determine the frequency of cleansing.
   When one is nursing a baby it is important to not cleanse, rather to rebuild with good nutrition, as this will impact the nutrients given to one's baby in the mother's milk.

Case History: I have seen many cases of improved bowels and health in babies when the mother has a Reflorastation. Within three hours, the baby begins to settle down their digestive upsets, thrush has lessened, they sleep peacefully. One such baby had been up all night, she was only 3 weeks old, and her mouth was filled with thrush. Even though the parents were giving her medicine from the doctor, everyone was miserable. I treated the mother and she nursed her baby about an hour later. The fussiness lessened but only slightly. However, 3 hours later, she nursed again. Baby promptly fell asleep after burping, and slept for 6 hours. She awoke happy, gurgling, and bright eyed. Mom had passed the strength of the reflorastation to her baby.

   In this way, one can honor and care for their body by keeping it as pure and vitalized as possible.
