What is the Bowen Technique?

The Bowen Technique is named after the work of Tom Bowen who was a gifted natural healer in Australia. It is a straightforward remedial therapy that is non-invasive, gentle and very effective. The Bowen Technique stimulates the body to rebalance itself which in turn promotes healing and pain relief. Some people often experience a deep and long lasting relief after two or three sessions.

How does it work?

The treatment works by gently stimulating muscles in the body which, in turn, sends messages to the brain. These instruct the body to heal itself, meaning that even after the session has finished the healing process continues. Three treatments are often enough to achieve lasting relief from pain although for some conditions further treatments may be required.

What does a treatment involve?

A treatment takes around 45 minutes, with most of the work being done through light clothing. The therapist lightly rolls over precise points on muscles and soft tissue. There is no manipulation and the patient should feel relaxed. During the treatment the client will be left for short periods to allow the body to start the healing process.

While some results can be immediate it is recommended three treatments are given at weekly intervals.

Treatment at regular intervals can also act as a preventative measure by managing stress and to maintain a well balanced body.
