    Hi @Transverse and welcome to the community!

    Is this something you have tried?

    No, ive not tried it yet, but hoping to once it starts back up. I was told that someone that was wheelchairbound and could not walk at all, can now walk to garden gate and back.

    Hi @Transverse

    I have managed to find some info on the “Bowen Therapy”

    I managed to find it on the (NICE) Website.

    I cant imagine anyone being able to walk after total immobility.
    But then it depends on good physio, how long there were immobile for and sheer grit!
    Good luck.

    Hi @Transverse

    Yes it looks very very interesting.

    I have got a local to contact once everywhere settles down.

    Do you want me to see if you have got a local one ????

    Hi @Transverse

    Yes I have got two to choose from.

    I will definitely give it a try once we are able too.

    They look ? like they are on bus routes ?
