I will select the appropriate sequence of precise, subtle moves, which involve me making a rolling action over your muscles, soft tissues, tendons and ligaments with my fingers and thumbs. The Bowen Technique works on areas close to your acupuncture / meridian points to alleviate your suffering.

How is The Bowen Technique Different From Chiropractic, Osteopathy & Physiotherapy?
Osteopaths and chiropractors diagnose the problem and treat it through adjustments, pulls or cracking of joints to realign the structure of your body. The therapist will take a detailed case history. Bowen Technique is a holistic therapy which works on your body as a whole unit to promote natural recovery, rather than focusing on treating a specific condition.

What is The History Of The Bowen Technique?
Bowen treatment is named after its developer Tom Bowen, who pioneered the technique during the 1950’s in Australia. Having served in World War II, Bowen was interested in relieving human suffering. Bowen believed that his holistic therapy technique facilitated a spectacular return to full health for his patients, by removing negative energy from their bodies, coupled with increased blood flow and lymphatic drainage. Bowen Technique alternative therapy has been established in England since the early 1990’s.
