What is Bowen Therapy? Bowen is a therapeutic soft-tissue manipulation technique that is applied to the muscles, tendons and ligaments which empowers the body’s own healing resources to achieve balance and harmony and results in fast and lasting relief from pain and discomfort. It creates a balance in the autonomic nervous system that increases relaxation and improves immune system function. Bowen moves encourage a sort of “conversation” between the brain and the muscles. Bowen is considered safe to use on anyone, from the newborn to the elderly and for a wide range of conditions from sports injuries to organic complaints. This innovative and gentle technique frequently gives substantial relief already after the first session. Unlike many other hands-on therapies, the Bowen Technique does not use forceful manipulation. A unique skill of the Bowen practitioner is “tissue tension sense”, meaning that the practitioners are able to discern stress build-up in muscles and other soft tissue. Treatments are generally one week apart. Depending on the condition after 3 treatments you may find that your problem is much improved or the improvements have been so significant you may want to add a few more sessions. The technique produces maximum results with minimum intervention. Bowen balances the physical, mental and emotional planes. Its rejuvenating effect empowers the quality of our lives.
