Bowen therapy assists in the treatment of back and neck pain to help get people moving again. It may also assist with a wide range of conditions including pregnancy discomfort, headaches and emotional distress.
Bowen Therapy is gentle, therapeutic treatment consisting of a series of gentle moves on the skin or through light clothing, with the client usually lying on a bed or treatment couch, although it is possible to be treated seated
What happens in a Bowen treatment?
"Lots of treatments once you are on the table start right here.
Two movements over the lower back muscles either side of your spine. Followed by two more to the outside of your glutes.
Then a pause for at least 2mins before any more.
It can be at this point that a lot of people begin to transition from a busy brain and body to relaxed and calm.
The pauses between sets of Bowen movements that continue throughout the session allow time for this ongoing reset.
This is one of the key things that make a Bowen treatment different from any other bodywork.
The movements are inputs and the wait times allow for your brain and body to process the information and begin to adjust.
Everyone does this at different rates over time. This accounts for why one person feels great getting up from the table and another feels the benefits a day or two later.
The movements themselves are gentle, which is a surprise to most and a relief to many.
This doesn't mean I don't find tender or pain points along the way. I do, but this is just the sort of information your body uses to shift from where it is when you arrive.
