My husband suffers from severe migrain
headaches. The only lucky thing is that
he only gets these sever migrains maybe 3
times a year. They are so intence for him
that I have to get on the phone and start
calling everyone I know that might have a
good pain killer. Migraines run in his
family his mother suffers to but more
frequent than he. She takes shots for her
migrains. But we have no medical
insurance to get him help.
He is a painter and he had gotten one of
those sever migrains at work luckly for
him they were painting a nursing home and
a wonderful nurse that specializes in
migrains took him to her office and did a
thing on him called "bowen therapy" it
took his migrain right away we couldnt
believe it we were shocked. The pain is
soooo sever for him and to think this
thing a women did with her fingers and
hands on his head took it right away. I
have looked bowen therapy up on the
internet only to find information on
coarses to take for it.
Please does any one out there no about
this?
Can anyone tell me what to do so we can do
this when he gets another one.
He was in so much pain that he wasnt even
paying attention to what she was doing so
we dont know what to do.
Or does anyone no of any other thing I can
do that is like the bowen therepy?
Thank you very much

Sorry,never heard of it.It sounds
wonderful.You might want to look into
taking courses-it would be benificial to
your husband and you might be able to help
others as well(maybe very lucrative--i
would pay big$$$$ when i'm in the middle
of severe migraine-others would
too!!)there are many financial aid
programs out there before you say you
can't afford it-you might just be
surprised!!
Good luck!!

Call a chiropractic office and see if they
know what it is. Go to a massage
therapist and ask. Hospitals must have
some info that you can get with no charge.
And even though you don't have insurance,
the hospital has to help you. Good luck
and I hope this helps.

Go to lycos health and type in bowen
therapy, this seems to have a lot of
information, I hope this has helped!

Homeopathic medicine has good remedies to
alleviate the migraine headache and after
taking the symptomatology of the patient,
the proper remedy can prevent further
episodes of the same.Common remedies are
sang can, spigelia, iris, vers, kali carb
etc.

Sorry Never Heard of It Posted: 04-27-05 19:00pm
But hes lucky 3x a year is better than
daily which is what some people have you
are a good wife for taking such good care
of youre husband I had trouble with
insurance myself. If you go to a doctor
and have them pescribe a pain killer a
strong one it would probably be helpful
because its so few it shouldnt be bad and
it wont cause a habit good luck to you
