What is Bowen Therapy

Bowen Therapy was developed by the late Tom Bowen in Geelong, Australia. Bowen Therapy is sometimes called the homeopathy of bodywork
Why I Love Bowen Therapy
I’m drawn to Bowen Therapy’s gentle, non-invasive approach. It works with the body’s natural healing mechanisms, empowering individuals to find relief and balance from within.
One of the aspects I appreciate most about Bowen Therapy is its versatility. It can be used to address a wide range of physical and emotional conditions, from chronic pain to stress and anxiety.
I’ve witnessed firsthand the incredible benefits of Bowen Therapy for people of all ages and backgrounds. It’s a truly empowering technique that can help individuals improve their quality of life and achieve optimal health.
How Bowen Therapy Works
This unique, gentle, holistic technique helps your body heal, manage pain, relax, and regain balance. It stimulates the entire body to activate its own healing mechanism.
My Bowen-specific moves deliver signals stimulating the body to heal itself, often profoundly. The moves are gentle but purposeful and can be done over light clothing. It is safe for all ages (from newborn to elderly) and all degrees of health, even during pregnancy.
Bowen Therapy works via various systems of the body. It works with the fascia, which is a thin casing of connective tissue that surrounds and holds every organ, blood vessel, nerve fibre and muscle in place. It also influences the nervous system by restoring balance via the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS controls over 80% of bodily functions and is very susceptible to external stressors. Most people today live in a constant state of high stress and sympathetic ANS over-stimulation (fight, flight or freeze mode). Healing can occur only after the ANS shifts from sympathetic to parasympathetic dominance (rest, relax and repair mode). Bowen Technique enables that shift. Additionally, it also influences the acupuncture meridians.
Bowen Technique facilitates the body in healing itself, with minimal intervention.
