What is Bowen Technique?

A Bowen Therapy session consists of a series of gentle moves on skin (or through light clothing).

How long will it take?

A Bowen Therapy session usually lasts from half an hour to an hour and frequently results in a deep sense of overall relaxation, allowing the body to recharge and balance itself.

How does it work?

There are many theories as to how Bowen Therapy works, but none completely explain it’s holistic effect and often outstanding results. In particular I have found Bowen Therapy to be very effective at treating back aches and pains.

Bowen Therapy does not impose a particular approach on the client. Instead it encourages a gentle response which empowers the body’s own resources to heal itself. Bowen therapy moves are a study in delicacy, being light, gentle and very precise.

Will it take a lot of treatments?

The Bowen Therapy Technique is not necessarily a 'long-term' treatment program. Most clients find that a small number of treatments, for example 3, are adequate even for long-standing complaints.

Ask anyone who has had a Bowen Therapy session and they will tell you how amazed they were with the results. Most people are initially skeptical about it as Bowen seems so gentle, when compared with someone like a chiropracter. Yet it works extremely well and most clients feel significantly better immediately after the first session - depending on the type and seriousness of the injury.
