What is Bowen Therapy?

Bowen Therapy is a gentle, innovative and holistic bodywork approach that stimulates the body’s natural healing capacity to heal and recover quickly and safely from pain and injury. Bowen Therapy is a total body-balancing therapy aimed at treating the whole person in restoring the body’s overall balance and harmony. Unlike massage or chiropractic care, it uses light, rolling movements over muscles, tendons, and fascia to "reset" the nervous system and promote self-healing. Bowen Therapy can be used to reduce stress, alleviate pain from many injuries and chronic conditions and improve mobility. By promoting overall balance and well-being along with addressing various conditions, Bowen Therapy offers a unique path to wellness and relief. Bowen has been described by many alternative and mainstream health professionals as one of the most important healthcare discoveries today!

Key Aspects of Bowen Therapy

Procedure

Bowen Therapy targets the fascia (connective tissue) to reduce pain, improve posture, and alleviate structural and functional problems. A Bowen Therapist uses precise, cross-fibre moves (often through clothing) followed by short, necessary breaks, allowing the body to process the "message" and initiate a healing response. A Bowen Therapist is simply a catalyst, setting the stimulus in motion for your body to heal itself. Bowen Therapy is often times called “physical homeopathy” because minimal outside influence is required to achieve phenomenal and lasting results.

Common Uses & Benefits

Bowen Therapy acts on the autonomic nervous system to reduce stress, manage pain and improve mobility. It aims to shift the body from a "fight or flight" (sympathetic) state to a "rest and repair" (parasympathetic) state. Commonly used for conditions like chronic back pain, headaches/migraines and injuries including strains, sprains, fractures and dislocations that lead to pain and reduced mobility. When undergoing Bowen sessions, the results can be very surprising as often times other conditions just fix themselves for something other than the person’s main complaint!

Who Benefits

Bowen Therapy is designed to treat the whole person, not just symptoms, and often works to restore balance to the, entire system rather than just the isolated area of pain. Initial relief often occurs in 1–3 sessions & sessions are usually spaced one week apart. Bowen Therapy treats YOU, not just the condition and many people are choosing regular Bowen sessions as their primary form of proactive and preventative healthcare for its therapeutic and relaxing benefits as well as to maintain and enhance overall health and manage. Bowen Therapy is suitable for all ages, from infants to the elderly.

What is the procedure for Bowen Therapy session?

The therapist uses thumbs or fingers to perform a gentle rolling motion across muscle, tendon, or nerve bundles, aiming to release restrictions. A key component is the therapist leaving the room for 2-5 minutes between sets of moves to allow the body to process and integrate the "re-setting" the neuromuscular system. 

Bowen Therapy is performed thru clothing and a large cotton t-shirt is provided (or you can bring your own) to wear during the session. Also the client is covered with a blanket during the session to keep the body warm and comfortable.

After a Bowen Therapy session results vary greatly depending on the person. Most people feel completely relaxed and energized following their session. As for pain most people feel an immediate decrease in their body however some may feel an increase in pain which generally goes away after a day or 2. The effects of Bowen take about a week to cascade throughout your body’s intricate physiological structures.

Post-Treatment Care 

After a Bowen Therapy session it is advised to drink plenty of water and go for short walks to help the body integrate the changes.

Sessions are often spaced 5-10 days apart, with relief sometimes felt after one session, though 3-5 sessions are typically recommended for lasting results. 

Session may also include any of the following: Amethyst Biomat, Sonic Wave Therapy, Scalar Wave Laser.

Client Reviews
Pain Reduced 3 Sessions
“At 52 years old, I was suffering from arthritis, aches and pains, and frozen shoulder.  I received little relief from other therapies in the past. My first Bowen session with Sharon totally healed my frozen shoulder and my arthritis pain was significantly reduced within the course of a few treatments. I now feel 20 years younger.  Thank you Sharon. I feel like you have given me back my life!”

90% Better in 3 Sessions
I have been suffering with upper back and neck pain for almost 10 years. I have tried many other therapies over the years with little to no relief. To my surprise just from one Bowen session and my pain severity was cut in half!!! After three treatments I am over 90% better and my energy level is as high as a 20 year old. So, Thank you Sharon!"
- Shafi  
Sciatica Relief 1 Session
 "Two months of acute sciatica passed with no relief. My first Bowen session gave me almost immediate relief. The day I went to see her I had to lift my leg into the car to avoid excruciating groin pain. When I left her office, I did not need to do this. After the second treatment the pain level was minimal and after the third and last treatment I walked out totally pain free. I am a bit of a skeptic when it comes to alternative therapies but Bowen Therapy has made me a believer."

Healthy Happy Pain Free
A serious traffic accident left me with major injuries to my neck, legs, and feet. Many years of surgeries and various forms of therapy helped somewhat to regain some measure of mobility although I lived with constant chronic pain & next step was a wheelchair. I decided to try Bowen and that decision has led me to where I am today - healthier, happier and, for the first time in many years, free of pain.
