Bow-EMM therapy

We were so happy to attend Wickham Festival, it was one of the things we missed the most during restrictions & lockdown. We put up our tent on Wednesday, returning Thursday morning, to set up fully and camp for the weekend.

This year the whole field was used so there was an unbelievable amount of space for everyone, Thursday evenings opening brought people across to our corner of the field, which was great and after we closed, we could sit in our tent and hear the second stage brilliantly well, which due to problems became the Main stage on Friday.

Friday’s weather with wind & rain was challenging at times and despite the increasingly muddy field, festival goers came across and some folk wanted to try Bow-EMM Therapies for themselves.

Saturday morning we woke to water flowing through our tent – so we brewed a cuppa, kept our feet dry and considered what to do when the rain finally stopped! All our floor mats were soaked and thankfully we had fencing to hang stuff on to try to dry and spare tarpaulin to put down instead, reorganised and opened a little later than usual. I think the weather and mud where off putting to a lot of people, so we had less visitors than we hoped but still had a good day, with a great show next to us.

Sunday again was changeable, so it was really good to have folk visit us, having a tent full of lady morris dancers during a sudden downpour was fun.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to the organisers & crew of Wickham Festival as well as everyone who visited us, despite the challenges we were so glad to be back doing what we love the best, at our favourite festival.

We never know where we are going to be sited at Wickham Festival, and this year we were very pleased to be near Stage 2 (Village stage), many of the bands we wanted to hear where playing there.

The lovely folk who we see every year managed to find us and we also had quite a few other people who we helped be more comfortable. Those who come to us in pain and leave with much less or none at all, is always its own reward, thank you for trusting us to help you.

Last year mud, this year heat, and it was very hot with our marquee in full sun most of the day which proved challenging to keep ourselves & our clients from overheating, yet somehow we managed, and still enjoyed ourselves.

We had some good results over the weekend and some lovely feedback:-
