Bowen is a remedial, hands-on therapy using very gentle pressure.  It involves a series of moves across muscles, soft tissue and meridians, which stimulate specific receptors, enabling the body itself to restore balance.  This is achieved initially during the rest period, in between each set of moves.

​

The treatment is gentle, subtle and relaxing and has shown to have profound and permanent healing and pain-relief results.  There is no manipulation or adjustment of hard tissue and no force is used. Bowen uses a light pressure, equal to  the resistance given by the body. It is, therefore, suitable for the tiniest of babies through to the frailest of adults. Bowen is, in fact, suitable for all ages and physical abilities. 

​

Bowen prompts the body to reset, repair and balance,  through the different densities of tissues and the autonomic nervous system. This effectively helps correct all types of imbalances. 

​

Bowen is a particularly effective therapy for: structural imbalances,  lower back, upper body, neck and shoulder pain, stress, anxiety, depression, balances metabolism, increases wellbeing, headache and migraine, jaw and facial pain, breathing related sleep disorders, pregnancy and post natal, sports injuries, plantar fasciitis, achilles tendon strains and hamstring tension, and many other conditions. Athletes report fewer injuries, when treated regularly with Bowen and they also notice an increase in performance.
