Capabilities

The Bowen Therapeutic Technique is a series of gentle, non-invasive moves, done across muscle and connective tissue - usually the patient is fully clothed. These moves balance the body and stimulate energy flows while encouraging the body to heal itself.

Australian based over 40 years ago by Thomas Bowen who studied the intricate circuitry of the nervous system.  Bowen determined that epicenters existed between the connective tissue and muscle.  By gentle, precise moves, these epicenters are stimulated to redirect self-healing of the body.

Because it works in harmony with the body, Bowen Therapy is incredibly effective for any muscular, skeletal, or nerve imbalance, injury or chronic condition.

The Treatment and You

The work done on the table is not the entire treatment but merely initiates it. The body will continue the work over the next week. Here are some simple instructions to maximize the effectiveness of the Bowen treatment:

During the week before treatment:

•    No massage or treatment involving adjustment, chiropractic, physical therapy, acupuncture.

On the day of the treatment:

• Do not sit for more than 30 minutes at a time without getting up for a short walk.
• If driving, stop every 30 minutes and walk around the car.
• No hot baths, hot tubs, sauna, heating pads or ice packs. A, brief shower is acceptable.
• Strenuous exercise should be avoided. Gentle exercise, such as walking is acceptable.
• Upon standing, weight should be evenly distributed on both feet, as opposed to one foot at a time. This helps to maintain the balanced effect of the treatment on the body.
• Drink plenty of water to help the body expel toxins.

During the following week:

• No massage or treatment involving the modalities stated above.
• Continue to drink lots of water.
• Walk as much as possible.
