Q: Bowen Technique, Rolfing, & Chiropractic?
So I made an appt for my first Bowen session on Friday, and they told me I couldn’t see my chiropractor for at least 2 days before and a week after because it would “shock” the never endings and basically negate the bowen session. Anyone heard of this with Bowen or Rolfing? I’ve been under chiropractic care for several years, and I feel like my adjustments don’t last very long and wanted to supplement with some body therapy other than traditional massage. I am open to trying other methods…as I truely just want to be pain free. Can these work together, or do I really have to give up chiropractic? I could use some advice. Thanks!!!!

A: You don’t need to worry about having your nerve endings “shocked” by the chiropractor, however, if you have been going for several years you should try something more. Most chiropractors have a passive approach for therapy. This means that they apply their modality to you, with no effort or responsibility on the patients part. The better approach is to apply an appropriate therapy, whether it be a manipulation, mobilization, muscle therapy and supplement it with exercises that help stablilize the area of your body that is deficient. I believe rolfing incorporates this in some sense, and it appears that this Bowen technique might as well.

One problem is that sometimes pain free is not a real option for some people. This would be the case if you have spinal stenosis or chronic facet syndrome do to a whiplash type injury. As far as chronic pain syndromes, the best treatment is usually exercise. I hope this helps.

Q: Information on Spinal Adjustments?
I am interested in the home study of chiropractic medicine at this time and was wondering if anyone had any online resources or popular literature that I should seek out.

I am mainly interested in the actual adjustments and techniques and things that will help me learn about assessing the condition of the spine of someone and how to tell the difference between natural curvature of the spine and protruding or miss-aligned vertebrae, although I would also like to see more diagrams or examples of the actual techniques if you have them

and yea… “Don’t do it” or “It is dangerous” or the even more helpful “Chiropractics has no benefits” statements are not an answer to this question…
If you want to share your opinion about its home study/practice or the field in general please go to a forum or something I just want the answer to the question I have asked which is where can I find this information on my own basically.
Wow… can none of you read?

seriously…

you try to present yourself as being so intelligent and yet you cannot read or follow simple freaking instructions…

I applaud lightning for at least having knowledge pertaining to the subject but you again did not answer my question at all you just corrected the “all-knowing dave”..

I’m going to re-type it in larger letters… maybe this will get the point through…

I DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR OPINION ON THE SUBJECT
I DO NOT CARE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT YOU THINK IT CAN BE EASILY LEARNED
DO NOT POST A DAMN ANSWER UNLESS IT IS INFORMING ME OF WHERE I CAN FIND EXAMPLES OR DOCUMENTATION OF IDENTIFYING POTENTIALLY MISS-ALIGNMENTS OR IS INFORMATION ABOUT THAT SPECIFICALLY (meaning devoid of your personal opinion of anything pertaining to my question or its subject in general in any way shape or form)

now stop using my question to whore points unless you actually have relevant information that will help me
Thank you to Massage Therapist for being the first literate poster!
The link you provided is definitely a good product but I forgot to mention that I had already heard about that website and was hoping for something more along the lines of a free website or other literature I might find in the medical sections of larger bookstores or maybe amazon or somethin I dunno, lol

A: Check out www.home-chiropractic.com It has a video and a workbook that shows how it do assessments and adjustments…I think this is what you are looking for.
