The Bowen Technique is a gentle form of natural healing.  A Bowen treatment involves light moves applied to very specific points on the body, with pauses between each series of moves.  Nothing is imposed from without.  The sole intention of the work is to encourage the body to respond by carefully stimulating its own ability to heal.  Generally, only 3 to 5 treatments are needed to correct all but the most stubborn issues.  Treatments are spaced 5 to 10 days apart with each treatment lasting about 1 hour.  Comfortable clothing is worn by our clients during their sessions.

RESEARCH: 

There has been much research into the complex communication systems arising from the interplay between the body’s tissues and fluids.  Researchers have noticed changes in the constitution of blood on a cellular level after a Bowen treatment.  Also, the creation of a stretch in the fascia tissue caused by a Bowen move, initiates an electrical charge.  Studies in the USA have identified them as being created by the tiny collagen fibers that make up the bulk of fascia.  It’s also been established that these impulses have a very powerful healing effect on the body!

HOW IT STARTED:

The Bowen technique was pioneered by Tom Bowen of Australia in the 1950’s.  He was fascinated by the different postures people had, and how this related to their symptoms of ill health or muscle pain.  He worked with many minipulators of his time perfecting  his technique, which he described as a “gift of God”.  It made its way into the United States in the ’80s and continues to grow in popularity!
