Bowen is a gentle, straightforward remedial treatment which stimulates the body to re-align and rebalance itself. It promotes healing, pain relief and recovery of energy.

What Bowen does

Bowen 'moves', as they are called, create a slight disturbance of the body tissues which triggers the healing response.

How it's done

Using fingers and thumbs, gentle movements are made over soft tissue at specific points. No massage or manipulation is used.

The patient is left resting at frequent intervals to allow the input of the movements to be absorbed. These breaks are therapeutic and extremely important.

Treatment is usually given through light clothing.

It's suitable for all age groups.

What happens during treatment

Mostly, we are unaware of where we physically hold our tensions. During a course of treatment a person may become conscious of tender or painful areas of which they had previously been unaware.

Patients can experience, for example, a tingling sensation or feeling of warmth in a part of them that may or may not have been treated. It can be as bizarre as work on the head resulting in sensations in the feet!

People frequently comment on how relaxing the treatment is. Some people almost fall asleep during treatment. They are often surprised that such minimal practitioner / patient contact achieves such a great deal. Any initial sceptism usually turns to amazement as they regain better health.

How many treatments would be needed?

Generally people find that 3 or 4 treatments at weekly or 2-weekly intervals bring total or significant improvement and relief. Sometimes additional treatments may be necessary.
