Can Bowen Therapy help you?
'A recent MYMOP study of over 450 people showed that 3 treatments of the Bowen Fascial Release Technique provides clinically significant change.' (MYMOP- measure yourself medical outcome profile - as used by the NHS)
By releasing stress at a very deep level, via its calming effect on the Autonomic Nervous System, Bowen sets the scene for the body to heal itself. In contrast to many other hands-on therapies, Bowen does not attempt to force the body to change; rather it asks the body to recognise and make the changes necessary to bring it back to homoeostasis (physiological equilibrium). Bowen is suitable for all ages, from a baby with colic to an elderly person with arthritis, and there are no known contra-indications. 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 hayfever and asthma • Digestive problems such as IBS • Arthritis • Hormonal, pregnancy and fertility problems • Stress management, ME, fatigue and sleep problems Bowen can be of assistance in many cases of emotional stress, where relaxation is a prime factor in easing pain and anxiety. It is also often a great help in improving the quality of life for those who are terminally ill.
OPENING HOURS: Monday – Saturday. Late appointments available.

When did you last weigh your pet? In the UK 45% of dogs & 40% of cats are over-weight. Sometimes the pounds can creep on slowly without being noticed, especially during the festive period. To ensure this is not happening to your pet we are offering
FREE WEIGHT CHECKS with our practice nurse throughout December and January. Please enquire at the practice for further information.
Join our Platinum Star Plan An affordable monthly payment scheme for preventative health care. Includes: wormers, flea & tick treatments, vaccinations, bi-annual health checks & more! Please ask at reception for further details
Countdown to Christmas Please remember that not all of your favourite festive treats are suitable for your pets. Chocolate and raisins can be toxic to cats & dogs, so keep the selection boxes and mince pies out of reach!
Stokesley Veterinary Practice would like to wish everyone and their pets a merry Christmas and a happy new year.

‘Slinky’ slimmer is set to shine! Nicky Bennett is looking forward to this Christmas party season more than most after losing over 9st and being named Stokesley’s ‘Miss Slinky’ 2014. The 35-year-old has dropped from a dress size 26/28 to a super sleek 10/12 since joining the Stokesley Slimming World group in January 2013, and now her stunning transformation has seen her fellow slimmers vote for her as their group’s representative in the national weight loss competition. Slimming World’s annual Miss Slinky competition recognises those female members who have changed both inside and out by becoming healthier, slimmer and more confident – and look great in their party dress. For the first time this year the competition has a male counterpart, Mr Sleek, and the national winners of both contests will win a £2,000 cash price. Nicky, says she was surprised – as well as delighted – when she was announced as the Stokesley Slimming World group’s winner. She adds: "When I was bigger I was really unhappy. I didn’t like what I saw when I looked in the mirror, I hated shopping for clothes and I felt self-conscious most of the time. Things are completely different now and I feel much more confident than I used to, I never thought anyone would ever describe me as ‘slinky’ so it’s just incredible to be Miss Slinky 2014. Nicky has never let any of her illnesses or disabilities get in the way of her progress and has also become more active, enjoying regular swimming sessions at the local leisure centre. "Christmas is a time of year for getting dressed up and having a good time. Before I lost weight I would dread it though, because I could never find anything to wear on nights out and I would feel uncomfortable and out of place, Before that’s if I didn’t
make an excuse to avoid socialising completely. This year I’ll be accepting every invitation I receive and instead of hiding in baggy or black clothes, I’ll be showing off my new figure – I can’t wait!" Karen, who runs the Stokesley group which Nicky attends, hopes she will demonstrate to other people what’s possible with Slimming World. She says: "As Nicky shows whether you’ve got a little or a lot of weight to lose, slimming down can make a big difference to how you feel about yourself and really boost your confidence. "People might put off joining a slimming group just before Christmas, but taking that first step if you’re unhappy about your weight could be the best gift you give yourself. Our eating plan is so generous that you won’t have to miss out on any of your festive favourites and there’s lots going on in the group so it’ll be lots of fun too – at Slimming World we know how to make Christmas extra special! "Everyone’s welcome to join us at The Methodist Church Hall every Wednesday at 9.30am or the Town Hall at 5pm and 7pm, they can just pop along or if they’d like more information they can call me on 07989515383." Please note that as of the 7th January 2015 we are launching a brand new group on a Wednesday morning in the Methodist Church Hall where you will be able to attend group at 9am or 11am.
