What is a Bowen treatment?
A gentle remedial therapy promoting balance, pain relief, and whole-body reset.
The Bowen Technique is a gentle yet deeply effective remedial therapy that works with your body’s ligaments, tendons, and nerve pathways to restore balance and alignment. Using light, rolling movements across soft tissue, I help prompt your body’s own healing responses through the nervous system. The effects continue to unfold for several days, gently rebalancing and integrating throughout your system.
The Treatment Experience
1
Consultation and Assessment
We’ll begin with a chat about your health and areas of tension, followed by a light assessment to identify imbalance.
2
Bowen Moves
I’ll perform gentle cross-fibre rolling movements to stimulate the nerves and release tension through soft tissue.
3
Rest Breaks
Short pauses allow your nervous system to integrate the effects and deepen relaxation.
4
Reassessment and Completion
We’ll review how your body has responded and discuss aftercare or future sessions.
