Bowen Therapy is a multidimensional approach that consists of sequences containing small gentle moves, each at a specific area on the body. It is a dynamic system of muscle and connective tissue therapy that is revolutionizing health care worldwide.
There is no forceful manipulation, just a light maneuvering of the muscles, tendons or ligaments which is pleasant to the recipient.
Bowen Therapy allows your body to become in tune with its own healing resources and abilities. In return, assists in providing your body with complete control of the healing process.
The objective of the technique is to completely restore the structural integrity of the body.
Bowen Therapy is a technique that treats the whole person and targets the cause of the problems, rather than the just the symptoms. Therefore resulting in both rapid and long term relief from a variety of conditions.
Problems that Bowen Therapy can assist with:
- Back pain
- Headaches/Migraines
- Joint pain
- RSI
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
- Depression
- Stress
- Lymphatic Drainage, just to mention a few
The Bowen Technique is not harmful to your body and is equally safe for a newborn as it is for the aged.

More on how Bowen Therapy works:
Bowen Therapy stimulates specific receptors which enable the body to correct dysfunctions and restore the body to homeostasis (balance). Dysfunction of the fascia (a thin lining surrounding the muscle and holding the nerve fibres), which is the largest sensory organ of the body, can affect every structure of the body such as, muscles, nerves, organs, etc. Bowen practitioners have a good sense of tissue tension when performing the therapy and therefore, an ability to co-ordinate the component parts of a move which feels so effective to the patient. A powerful stimulus to the circulation of a joint will relax the muscles around the joint and thereby take pressure off that joint. This then allows the body to realign itself over the next 9 hours.
