Baby Bowen…
✔For when your baby is not thriving as you know it should
✔For when they appear to be uncomfortable
✔For when they don’t want to be touched in certain areas (head, neck or hips)
✔For when they lie in a specific position most of the time
✔For when they struggle with reflux, spilling or vomiting
✔For when they immediately begin to cry when you put them in the car seat, undress them, or hold them in a specific way
✔For when they seem to be unable to settle easily

Bowen for babies as young as a few days or weeks, can support with many issues. The non-invasive and super gentle, and fairly quick treatment, is easily accepted by your little one.
Some need only one session, some may need a few.

If you feel your baby is struggling, Bowen might be an option to try. Please, feel free to reach out to discuss their specific issue(s) or just book them in.
Remember, I offer Baby Bowen from the home clinic, and also at Flourish Taranaki in Westown on Tuesday mornings 💚
Just book your session here:

Poll: Is it illegal to have fog lights on when there's no fog?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The answer is yes, it is illegal. And yet in New Zealand it's fairly common to see drivers hitting the road with their fog lights on when it's simply dark.

Those who have sat their written drivers test recently will be in the know, but be honest, did you know it was illegal?
