! s ley et ter Have you heard of Bowen Therapy? It is becoming more and more popular and many patients, who have tried it, recommend it highly. Bowen Therapy is a remedial body technique that is gentle and relaxing. It helps the body’s own healing resources to achieve balance and harmony, and may result in relief from pain and discomfort. It is a holistic remedial body technique that works on the soft connective tissue of the body and can be used to treat musculoskeletal or related neurological problems including acute sports injuries and chronic or organic conditions. It is gentle and relaxing and does NOT use forceful manipulation. The BOWEN technique is safe to use on anyone, from newborns to the elderly. It treats the whole person and aims to treat the cause of problems, rather than the symptoms. Be one of the first to try this therapy at CASA. 9360 E. Manzanita Cir.

More recently, a growing number of companies have been selling hearing aids via the Internet. The problem is that hearing aids are not merely amplifiers. They are sophisticated digital devices and require professional services including: 1) Audiometric testing to determine your unique hearing needs. 2) Selection and programming of the hearing aids to match your specific hearing loss. 3) Verification testing to ensure that you are receiving maximum benefit. 4) Aftercare service, such as reprogramming, cleaning, adjustments for best fit and comfort, and retesting your hearing over time. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which regulates hearing aids, says: “Hearing aids should be properly fitted by a licensed hearing healthcare professional (such as an audiologist or a hearing aid dispenser) so that the amplification matches your hearing loss.” Source: Robert Baber is a Board Certified Hearing Instrument Specialist (Contact your local Hearing Specialist for a complete evaluation of any hearing loss you may be experiencing) Certified by the Bowen Academy of Australia p.
