Introduction to Bowen Therapy

The Bowen Technique is a subtle and very gentle remedial therapy. It treats the body as a unit – holistically, not as isolated parts.
The Bowen Technique is undoubtedly unique as it utilizes the body’s own capacity to rebalance and heal itself in a very subtle, gentle and relaxing way. These features promote Bowen as an ideal therapy for babies and children, pregnant women and for people suffering from chronic or acute pain.
Bowen Therapy is a valuable tool used in the treatment and prevention of sports injuries. Regular Bowen can help to increase flexibility, which enhances performance and helps to prevent injury and re-injury. Where injury has occurred, recovery and repair of the body is greatly enhanced by Bowen, which helps to reduce healing time.
Not everyone who comes for Bowen is unwell. Many people include Bowen Therapy as part of a Healthy Lifestyle. This is particularly important in today’s hectic environment, where relaxation can be difficult to achieve.
Two or three Bowen sessions a year can help towards maintaining a healthy mind and body balance. These sessions can take place in the workplace if this is more convenient.
