Bowen Technique

The Bowen technique was developed in Australia, in the 1950's by self-taught osteopath, Tom Bowen. By 1974 Tom was treating 13,000 people a year including local sportsmen, people with work related injuries and a free clinic for disabled children.

Bowen Technique is a positive touch therapy, using fingers or thumbs to make a series of precise, rolling type moves over the muscle, tendons and ligament. Bowen treats the body as a whole, working not only on muscle but the nervous and lymphatic systems.

It is a relaxing and non- invasive treatment that is suitable for adults and children, from newborn babies, the elderly to manual workers and sportsmen.

Each treatment is tailored to suit the symptoms presented by the client. Areas of the body that Bowen moves are used on include the back, neck, throat, hamstrings, calf muscles, ankles, Achilles tendons, knees, face, pelvis/hip, coccyx, chest/breast.

Initial consultations and 1st treatments last 60- 90 minutes, subsequent treatments last between 45-60 minutes and are performed through light clothing, or directly on skin. During treatment there are short breaks that allow the body to respond to treatment and make the subtle changes and adjustments needed to re-balance the body. To receive the most benefit from Bowen Technique it is recommended that clients do not mix this therapy with others for at least 5 days after treatment.
