Bowen Technique

Each of us is born with a blueprint. This design allows for optimum operation of our bodies. Through the stresses of everyday living we can get out of sync’ from the original design thus experiencing stress, pain and loss of function.

Bowen Technique is a gentle, non-invasive form of body work. Messages are sent using specific moves over muscles ligaments and tendons to the brain This triggers the body’s cellular memory to revert back to the settings of the original blue print .It balances the body, restores function and is deeply relaxing. It is safe for anyone from babies to the elderly.

Each session consists of a series of moves using fingers and thumbs and then pauses. The pauses are essential for the brain to react to the neural stimuli and perform the reset.

This technique not only addresses the musculoskeletal system but also the fascia, ligaments, tendons, internal organs, circulation and lymphatic system. It works on the physical, emotional and mental levels.

WHAT TO EXPECT
RESULTS

Bowen is hard to explain. It looks weird and you may think nothing is happening.

Bowen involves a series of set moves done with a rolling movement of the therapists thumbs and fingers over muscles ligaments or tendons following by a waiting period of 2 minutes or more.

In this wait time, vibrational messages are sent up to the brain to reset the bodies blueprint for the dysfunctional target area. In the wait time some people feel nothing, others can feel tingling or mild pain as the body resets.

The body is allowed to do its thing and when all sensation cesses the treatment continues.

If you are a disbeliever… so was I. When I started training, I was the class sceptic. I had never had a Bowen treatment, yet all our classmates were raving fans. The only reason I took the course was because the Myotherapy course was cancelled.

The course requires 100 hours of home practice and what was witnessed was astounding.

A triathlete who had always battled tight legs felt like a gazelle the next day powering up steep hills.
The dental assistant who could not chew on a steak without her jaw locking had her jaw rectify whilst still on the treatment table and was back eating steak in a week.
A baby who had projectile vomited every night when put to bed for a period of 6 months, could suddenly go 6 weeks between treatments before the vomiting returned.
Squealing constipated infants had their bowels release within the hour, adults within 2 hours.

An elderly lady who had battled with restless leg syndrome for 10 years had 3 treatments and found enormous relief from her symptoms.
Bowen Technique can treat so many more disfunctions of the body than massage can. I am still the biggest sceptic but there is no way I could go without this amazing tool in my toolbox. It gives amazing results despite my own disbelief!
