To Whom It May Concern
Bowen Therapy is the best thing I have done for myself.
I have seen a Chiropractor all my life for headaches, back, neck etc. I have
been in continual pain since the summer of 97. I fell down stairs in
February 1998. To say the least the pain has been worst since my fall. My right
arm and shoulder were injured in the fall. I still did not have full range
of motions when I came to Debra in May. I now have a full range of motion
and during my month of treatment was completely pain free. I did not have to do
heat or ice in between treatments. I followed Deborah's instructions to the Tee.
I do have some pain in the shoulder after exercising or
over exerting myself. However I am now able to just go and do my everyday things
in life. For example I could not vacuum, could not pick up my daughter, could
not take my dirty clothes to the washing machine. I do all those thing now.
Bowen Therapy I would recommend to anyone.

Dear Deborah,
I wanted to give you an update on the results of
the three Bowen Therapy treatments that I had this past month. I no longer have
the aching in the center of my chest that I had experienced for several months,
and the inflammation at the base of my neck has virtually disappeared. I really
feel that the Bowen Therapy aided in the healing of these conditions and I
am not bothered by them at this time.
I really appreciate your thorough discussion about the
treatment, and I also believe that the exercises helped with my arms and upper
chest. I plan on coming in for just a Swedish massage sometimes this summer
because I feel that this is of overall benefit, also.
Thank you, Deborah, for providing a wonderful
alternative to medical care without the use of medicines or drugs. I hope my
experience will influence others to give Bowen Therapy a try.
Sincerely,
Sharon James
I had never heard of Bowen Therapy when I first
went to see Deborah. I figured I would give it a try seeing that I am a believer
in other therapies like massage and chiropractic. I was pretty amazed and quite
impressed. Deborah performed very simple movements of resetting my muscles and
it almost felt like she wasn't doing anything. But after the treatment I felt
like I had received a very intense full body massage. I felt relaxed and
wonderful tingling sensations. I had a tendency to pull my shoulders back and
have better posture. Bowen Therapy assisted with relieving some aches and pains
I was having as well. I definitely recommend Bowen Therapy as an alternative
treatment if you are not getting results from traditional health care. Deborah
is great and is very talented in the field of body work. She really makes you
feel at ease and is very professional.
Thanks again Deborah!

Dear Deborah,
I am so grateful to you for your help in eliminating
my carpal tunnel symptoms. Over the past year, I have verbally recommended you
to many of my friends and patients. In addition, I write to you today so that I
might share my experience with those that come to you, as I did, looking for an
alternative to surgery.
It was one year ago that my carpal tunnel symptoms had
reached the point where I was awakened every night in numbing pain. As a dental
hygienist for over twenty years, my hand and wrist movements are critical to my
work. I had experienced a gradual decline in strength and increasing numbness
over ten-year period. I had wrist splints for nightly wear that had brought
relief for several years, but now they were no longer effective. After a
visit to my primary physician, a confirmed diagnosis by the
neurologist, and a visit to the orthopedic surgeon, I was faced with the reality
of surgery. I was deeply concerned as to my length of recuperation and the
effect surgery might have in the performance of my lifelong career.
On the recommendation of a friend, I was advised to
give you a call. I explained my situation and was welcomed by your friendly and
caring manner. You thoroughly explained the Bowen Technique to me. Coming from a
science background in healthcare, I must admit that I was somewhat skeptical as
to my chances for recovery. However, I felt that it was worth the try. In your
honesty, you admitted to little experience with my particular problem, but by
the time I arrived at my first session, you had thoroughly researched and
developed a treatment plan. Over the next six weeks, you provided excellent care
in a professional and encouraging manner. Your enthusiasm for your work was
evident and influenced me in a very positive way.
I am pleased to report that Deborah Norman and the
Bowen Technique have alleviated my carpal tunnel pain. I have been able to
continue my dental hygiene career as well as many hours of computer work without
any further symptoms. I am totally amazed that such gentle and relaxing
treatment could be so effective.
Please feel free to share this letter with anyone that
is contemplating surgery or experiencing pain such as mine. I would be more than
happy to personally share my story with any of your perspective clients. Thank
you for your tremendous help in restoring my life to "full capacity".
Sincerely,
Diane M. Ring
To Whom It May Concern:
I was introduced to the Bowen Therapy by Ms.
Deborah Norman during a recent visit. I inquired about what it would do for me
and she advised that it would help my back and also my side. I had surgery
almost nine years ago and I have suffered with constant pain around the incision
area. So much that they performed surgery a second time to try and correct it.
It did not work. After four years of constant pain, I sought help from an acupuncturist.
This helped as long as I did not lift or tug on anything. In the last three
months, the pain returned. Desperate for relief, I spoke with Ms. Norman about
the Bowen Therapy. She thought it would help. I have had three treatments and
the pain in my incision has completely disappeared. I cannot tell you how
wonderful it is. I wish someone would have introduced me to Bowen Therapy along
time ago.
I thank Deborah Norman for a pain free Existence.

I'm Helen Flores, owner of The Cutting Edge
Salon. I have been a hairdresser for the past 16 years and I started having back
and shoulder problems from the work I do. I went to a chiropractor for 8 years
and still have had the back pain for years.
I then discovered Deborah Norman. We talked about Bowen
Therapy and what it could do for me. I decided to give it a try. Immediately my
back pain and shoulder pain got better. I haven't gone to my chiropractor for
about a year now. Bowen Therapy really has helped me!
I would recommend Bowen Therapy to anyone with serious
pain. I had even gone to a Medical Doctor and all he gave me was pain killers
and muscle relaxers. Bowen Therapy is the only thing that took my pain away.
I only wish I would have found Deborah sooner.

To Whom It May Concern:
Several months ago I went to Deborah Norman with
a pain from my left upper shoulder up to my neck. At the time I could not turn
back-wards to back up my car without pain. I had had this off and on for several
years.
I had three treatments of Bowen therapy and slowly the
pain has subsided. For the last two to three months now I am completely pain
free.
I have no idea how this procedure works, but it does
and I do recommend it for anyone who is suffering constant pain.
Sincerely,

I overheard a couple of ladies talking about
Bowen Therapy and started listening and asking questions. I had not heard of
Bowen Therapy. I work at Sammons Clubhouse and am very busy and always on the
go. I too had experienced a deep pain/ache in my right elbow and shoulder, so I
thought I might give Bowen Therapy a try.
When Deborah was performing the therapy on me I was
laying on the table thinking, "she's, not rubbing hard enough to do
anything." This, I thought, was a waste of money. However, much to my
surprise, my pain is gone!
I went for 3 sessions and she gave me very simple
exercises to do. So far my pain is still gone and it has been several months
since the last treatment.
I recommend Bowen Therapy to anyone who has pain. Go
with an open mind. You will learn a lot.
Thanks Deborah for making my pain go away.
Sincerely,
Debbie Hightower
Just turn on the T.V. and someone is trying to sell you
a "fix" for good health. I might be the right innersole for your shoes
or the newest weight loss program. I consider myself to be an open minded
person, but I've become somewhat of a skeptic, after all everyone would be
perfect if these things all worked.
I had mentioned to Debra that my TMJ would give me the
"blues" sometimes. Causing headaches, neck aches, and aching teeth.
She asked me if I would consider trying Bowen Therapy. I said "Sure, why
not?. I've tried OTC drugs, a chiropractor and a dentist." (My problem is
due to the deterioration of bone in my jaw.)
I have had Bowen Therapy a number of times, with very
impressive results. It's totally different from other treatments I've tried, and
it does seem to ease the tension in my jaw, which also helps to decrease the
number of headaches I get during flare ups.
I do recommend trying Bowen Therapy, because it's
possible that this pleasant, relaxing therapy might help you.
Sincerely,
Cindy Frenzel
Dear Deborah Norman,
It
is with great pleasure that I write this letter of thanks to you for bringing
the Bowen Therapy and your sparkling personality to Temple, Texas!
The Bowen Therapy was unknown to me, but your complete
explanation of the therapy, it's origination and it's proven benefits made me an
eager candidate. I am more aware of my body, it's posture and the importance of
good habits. I came to you with back pain, neck tension and headaches and was
deeply in need of relief. After about the third session it was obvious to me
there was truth behind the Bowen Therapy technique as my headaches and back pain
subsided and my tension was eased.
You truly believe in your work and that inspires me.
The sessions are conducted in a professional manner and your attitude is genuine
when it comes to helping people. Your knowledge of the Bowen Therapy along with
the hands-on technique has brought relief to the increasing pain I had been
experiencing for the last few months.
As I battle with Multiple Sclerosis, I am continuously
searching for drug-free methods of dealing with the physical aspects of this
disease. I am grateful for the alternative therapy you have shared with me and I
am looking forward to continuing with the Bowen Therapy on my road to better
health.
Sincerely,
Bonnie L. Thorton
Dear Deborah,
A note to let you know that I am back
to work this school year feeling so much better than last year. With my problems
I was seriously looking at medical retirement, or at least just taking one year
at a time and try to struggle through. My mom says that I have a
"sparkle" back in my eyes.
I feel so much better since beginning the Bowen
treatments this summer and you have my gratitude for suggesting that it might do
something to help me. I know that it (Bowen) will not cure the kind of problems
I have, but it has made my quality of life close to what it was years ago. It
certainly beats the injections into the spine!
The biggest boost to my morale is that I am not using
my handicap car-tags most of the time I feel I can walk the distance now.
I will continue seeing you for "tune-ups".
Please! Do not move away from Temple!
Thanks so much,
Sylvia Marrs
It is my pleasure to share with you my
experience with Deborah Norman, R.M.T., and Bowen Therapy.
A short while ago, upon returning from a trip which
involved carrying luggage and an airline flight, I sought Deborah's help with a backache.
I was in agony when I called her because over-the-counter medications weren't
helping, heating pads and ice weren't helping, and after a week, I knew I needed
help to get better. Deborah saw me the next afternoon and performed the first
Bowen Therapy session on me.
After the session, I was able to stand up straight for
the first time in a week. The first few days following the treatment, I had the
sensation of bubbles coming from the soles of my feet and effervescing up my
body. The day immediately after the session, everybody at my office wanted to
know what I had done that allowed me to be up and walking around again. I was
delighted to tell them about my experience with Bowen therapy.
I have had a couple of sessions now, and I feel great.
Deborah has not only worked on my back problems but also on a few old sports
injuries.
The other day, as I was shaving my legs, I realized
that I had absolutely no back pain and my flexibility had completely returned.
That is why I highly recommend Bowen Therapy to anyone who wants to feel better.
It is a truly awesome experience that leaves you feeling revitalized. After
seeing what Deborah did for me, my husband plans to have Bowen Therapy for his
back. I would encourage anyone wanting to feel great to experience Bowen
Therapy.
Sincerely,
Deborah Nobel
