Bowen

What is Bowen?

​

Bowen is a state-of-the-art healing technique.

Subtle moves are preformed over muscle and connective tissues sending messages deep into the body, retrieving cellular memory of a preferred, relaxed, balanced way of wellbeing. It is safe to use alongside orthodox medicine and so gentle that it can be performed on the new born to the elderly.
Bowen not only addresses the musculoskeletal framework, but also the fascia, nerves and internal organs.

​

Generally, only a few sessions are required for most common presenting problems.  Complex chronic conditions may require longer treatment but not always.  These are spread out between 3 to 10 days apart for maximum benefit, a later follow up session maybe beneficial or if symptoms or injury reoccurs.  It is best to be seen as soon as possible after you receive discomfort from the injury or ailment as this can prevent longer treatment being necessary.

​

Unlike many hands-on therapies Bowen Technique does not use forceful manipulation.  A unique skill of releasing “tissue tension” means that stress built up in the muscles and other soft tissue enables specific Bowen moves to assist recovery.  There are frequent but essential pauses throughout the session that allows the body to respond and start the healing process.

​

Bowen can improve circulation, lymphatic drainage and elimination of toxins.
