D.P. Aged 67 – Returned to the clinic after her initial 2 Bowen Therapy treatments 6 months earlier. It took a little time to remember her original condition and thankfully I had made good notes. She reported that since the first 2 treatments she had not returned to her chiropractor just as I had predicted to her. Her original scoliosis had completely disappeared for 6 months and she had just started to relapse and was in for a tune-up.

My most challenging problem is arthritis in both knees, worse in the left knee.  I wear an ‘Unloader’ knee brace on my left knee and an elastic brace on my right knee. The pain eventually sapped my energy and it started to affect my mood.

After the treatment the pain diminished tremendously. I felt a lift in my spirit and in my energy.  The change gave me confidence to move around without the fear of the pain thus I felt more free.  I walk with my body being straight, more balanced and with a better gait.  Limping is pretty much gone.  I don’t need to wear the Unloader knee brace as much in the house.  I started taking an Osteofit class at a Recreation Centre and I do all the exercises and feel good with my progress.

I would say give yourself an opportunity to heal by trying the Bowen therapy with Jonathan Damonte. I tried it and it worked wonders for me.  I don’t really know how the Bowen therapy works but from experience I can say that true healing is happening and I am feeling much better in many ways specially walking with a feeling of freedom.

About once a year for the last 5 years I’ve had vertigo attacks. My family doctor said, it’s like lower back pain in that its prevalent and we don’t have a cure. I have tried acupuncture, cranio-sacral therapy and other alternate therapies and some have helped but the vertigo still lingered on in a milder form for weeks and months. Then last month, it hit me again and for a couple of days it was all I could do to sip water and fumble my way to the bathroom once in a while. I sought help from Jonathan and the Bowen Therapy for the first time. I felt some relief immediately after my first session and after 3 sessions with Jonathan, the vertigo was completely gone. I’ve now had a several months free of the slightest tinge of vertigo and, as well, I feel wonderful.” Thanks Jonathan!

I had been experiencing 24-hr-a-day headaches for about a year and a half. Most were mild and many were severe.  My headaches were diagnosed as migraines after an MRI and confirmed by a neurologist.  I pursued various strategies – local injections, acupuncture, numerous medications – all to little avail.

Although I was able to function for the most part, I was aware of the pain every minute of the day and so was unable to enjoy a normal life.  Our family GP was diligent, supportive, and did everything possible to help, including multiple referrals to specialists. Still, the constant search for relief and the many trips to doctors’ offices was time consuming, taxing, and demoralizing.

I felt immediate relief after my very first session and have not had a migraine recurrence in over a month.  I no longer take any medications for pain relief. Having been on one form of drug or another for such a long period of time, this benefit is of particular importance to me.

I was initially concerned with headaches but have benefited in other ways as well.  Care was taken to assess and consider the overall health issues that might have been impacted by my childhood polio and the resultant imbalance to the right side of my body.  The four Bowen treatments I have had to date have not only given me migraine relief but have addressed sciatic pain and shoulder/neck pain as well.

I would definitely recommend giving this treatment method a try.  The manipulations are very gentle, and in my case, the pain relief immediate.  As a treatment option, it is no more expensive that other methods, including prescription drugs, and with no side-effects.

I appreciated that the underlying issues that may have contributed to the headaches were considered first, as opposed to treating the symptoms only.  I never felt forced to take more treatments – quite the opposite in fact.

Jonathan Damonte has been my personal homeopath for more years than I can remember. Most of our consultations have been over the phone due to geographical distance. I live in Ontario, Jonathon resides in British Columbia.

Jonathan has been through all my major and minor pathologies, including:

 A burst bowel, with 2 hours to live, Jonathan was prescribing the correct remedies to my husband who had to sneak up the stairs to my hospital room to dispense to me. This involved extensive and supportive follow ups

 Hemochromatosis, over production of iron in the liver, the urologist was insisting on a liver transplant. I had ‘until he found me a liver’ to reverse the very escalated numbers. Within 20 minutes of prescribing the correct remedy I was on my way to recovery. This involved extensive and supportive follow ups.

 Burst aneurysm in the brain, with Jonathan’s assistance, the doctors declared that I was a miracle patient as the size and shape of the aneurysm there was no way I should have lived. My recover y involved extensive and supportive follow ups

All of this over the phone.

Jonathan has always been very available to me over the phone, through the day and into the evening.

Jonathan is a very committed to patient care, a well educated and experienced Homeopath. 

I am very blessed to have him as my main care giver for my health.
