Bowen technique

The Bowen technique is a straightforward no-nonsense complementary therapy that is a gentle yet highly effective way of helping people to be free of pain without resorting to manipulation, needles, pills or massage.

Therapists treat the body as a whole rather than just presenting symptoms.  They use gentle, rolling moves over precise parts of the body using the thumbs and index fingers that trigger the body's natural healing responses so that it resets and heals itself.

The body continues to respond for several days afterwards.  The most common reaction is a deep sense of overall relaxation and lessening of muscular tension and pain.  Improvement is often experienced within a few days.  Results tend to last for a long time.

It is unique.  It takes on the physical, emotional, chemical, mental and energetic levels of the body to promote natural healing.

Osteopaths, chiropractors, sport therapists and physiotherapists are among the many professional practitioners who recommend and use the Bowen technique.
