BOWTECH EASE is a blend of Ayurveda Aromatherapy essential oils which help reduce inflammation, pain and infection in the joints and soft tissue of the body.

Bowtech Ease is an Ayurveda Aromatherapy Blend specifically formulated by Subtle Energies for the Bowen Therapy Academy of Australia to complement the Bowen Technique. The Bowen Technique (Bowtech) is a neuro-muscular, hands-on technique that addresses the body’s intelligence to bring about a balance to the body on all levels – physical, mental and emotional.

Bowtech Ease is based on ayurvedic principles and has been found to be effective when combined with the Bowen Technique.

This aromatic blend has proved to be very effective for:

• musculoskeletal problems

• back pain, knee swellings

• fractures, degenerative problems

• bunion pain and swelling of the feet

• inflammation and pain in the knees, hips and joints

• muscular aches and pain due to overuse or injury

• bronchial conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, cough

• pain and inflammation associated with gout and arthritis

• warms up the body in winter and relieves chilblains

Ingredients:

Ayurvedic Essential oils – cinnamon leaf, peppermint, black pepper, eucalyptus, camphor, ginger and lemongrass with the Indian oils of ashwagandha and sesame.

Directions:

Apply a little oil to the affected area three to four times daily for best results. Do not massage if used following a Bowen Therapy session as this will negate the effectiveness of the treatment – just apply to the skin.

Apple cider vinegar:

This aids cellular healing. Use for damaged tissue, bruising and soft tissue injuries.

Soak a face washer in apple cider vinegar and wrap around the injured area like a poultice. For sensitive skin, dilute the vinegar with water cover cuts and abrasions to prevent stinging.)

Wrap or cover with a bandage to hold in place.

Epsom Salts

Bi Carb Soda

Gelatin

For help with circulation also add ½ quantity of above volume Powdered Ginger

Take 1 heaped teaspoon every morning in ¼ glass of water then add 1 teaspoon of Lemon Juice (can be from squeeze bottle). While still fizzing drink it.

You should start to feel the difference within a few days.

The Gelatin is beneficial for ligaments, tendons and cartilage. The Epsom Salts is Magnesium Sulphate and magnesium is essential in the body for calcium absorption and muscle relaxation. The lemon juice turns alkaline in the system. The mix helps to alkalise the system and is about 8% Calcium.

Soak in an Epsom salts bath a few times a week, and paint the fluid sac with apple cider vinegar several times a day. If the skin is sensitive, dilute the vinegar with water.

Soda packs may be used on fluid sacs, however apple cider vinegar aids cellular healing, and is used for damaged tissue bruising and soft tissue injuries.

Crush Bexters soda crystals (sodium carbonate, sal soda. Lectric Soda) to coarse salt size and place a layer of the soda about 10 cm × 5 cm x 2 cm (4 × 2 × 1 inches) in the centre of a square of cotton, (e.g., a man's handkerchief or tea towel, depending on the size of the joint).

Make a pack by folding the edges of the material over the soda so that only one layer of cloth will lie between the soda and the skin.

Tape this pad in position below the swollen joint, then cover it with a towel and keep it on overnight, or for a minimum of three to four hours.

Use soda packs only on alternate days or three times weekly.

CAUTION: Sensitive skin can blister.

With very sensitive skin, try half a cup of soda crystals in a warm (not hot) bath and soak for half an hour. Take care as washing soda can make the bath very slippery.

COMMENT: Soda crystals can also be used to draw off fluid in other joints. It is also useful for lymphoedema, hematomas and general arthritic conditions.

Use two tablespoons of Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate) in a bowl of warm water.

Soak for 20 minutes, then rub in lodex™ or Bowtech Ease.

Magnesium spray, when applied to the calves and feet, can provide several benefits including muscle relaxation, pain relief, and potential improvement in sleep quality by alleviating muscle cramps and soreness. Additionally, it may enhance skin health by reducing inflammation and promoting healing. When selecting a magnesium spray, look for a product with a magnesium chloride concentration in the range of 25-35%, as this is typically effective for transdermal absorption. Ensure the spray is of high purity, ideally pharmaceutical grade, and free from unnecessary additives. Always follow the usage instructions and perform a patch test to check for any skin sensitivity.

MISMO Magnesium Chloride(hexahydrate) is an ideal source of supplemental magnesium, either taken orally, or mixed with water to create an oil for transdermal application. Click here to shop.
