Davina is a fully qualified and experienced Practitioner in Neurostructural Integration Technique (NST) which is a form of Bowen Therapy and is a member of the Bowen Therapy Professional Association (BTPA) and is also a Practitioner of the Emmett Technique.

NST Bowen therapy is a remarkably effective professional bodywork technique, that when applied, initiates a process of natural auto-regulation to occur in the spinal column and consequently throughout the whole body.  The resultant effect of this is a rapid elimination or reduction of symptoms, followed by an increase in energy and an unmistakable sense of well being.

Bowen therapy is gentle and therefore appropriate for everyone, from new-born babies to the elderly.  It consists of gentle rolling movements over muscles, tendons and ligaments at precise points on the body using fingers and thumbs.  The process releases energy, sending impulses to the brain to trigger the body’s own healing systems.

This remarkable technique can be quick and effective in helping the following:

• Muscular and skeletal problems in neck, shoulder, hip, knees, ankle and back, including sciatica
• Frozen shoulder, tennis and golf elbow, R.S.I. and carpal tunnel
• Whiplash and sports injuries
• Problems with posture and body alignment
• Migraine and recurring headaches
• Bell's Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's Disease and the difficulties suffered by stroke victims
• Respiratory, bronchial and related conditions such as hay fever and asthma
• Digestive problems such as IBS
• Arthritis
• Hormonal, pregnancy and fertility problems
• Stress management, ME, fatigue and sleep problems
  

To enhance the treatment Davina can also incorporate the Emmett Technique which involves the application of light pressure at particular points and in sequences that enables the gentle physical release of muscle groups.
