Bowen Therapy

Bowen Therapy is a simple but effective body balancing system. Through gentle moves on soft tissue at a series of key points on the body, it stimulates energy flow that releases tension, strains and blockages, empowering the body's own resources to naturally re-balance and heal itself.

There is no manipulation or adjustment of hard tissue; the treatment is very gentle, relaxing and safe for nearly all ages. It can be performed through light clothing with each session lasting approximately 30 - 45 minutes.

Benefits may be seen after the first session and in many cases long standing pain can be relieved in 3 sessions, although further treatments may be required in some situations.

Bowen therapy uses a vibrational energy, which makes it safe to use on anyone from newborns to the elderly for any complaint from sports injuries to chronic or organic conditions.

Bowen can help to improve:
·   Circulation
·   Lymphatic and venous draining
·   Assimilation of nutrients
·   Elimination of toxins
·   Joint mobility
·   Posture

After having a Bowen treatment, it is strongly advised that you do not have any other physical therapy such as massage, acupuncture, reflexology, physiotherapy etc. for 7 days after the treatment as this may undo the balance achieved through having a Bowen treatment
