How might Bowen treatment help?

Bowen therapy is a soft tissue remedial therapy that involves the therapist using fingers or thumbs to move over muscle, ligament, tendon and fascia in various parts of the body.  The treatment addresses problems arising from over-loaded structural stress points.

Each Bowen therapy session varies according to the particular problems of the client. By focusing on the lower and mid back, the legs, the upper back, shoulders and the neck, muscles release tension so the aches and pains diminish or disappear and a sense of wellbeing can be achieved. 

In contrast to many other hands-on therapies, Bowen does not attempt to force the body to change; rather it prompts the body to recognise and make the changes necessary to bring it back to homoeostasis (physiological equilibrium).

Bowen treatment may be of assistance in many cases of emotional distress, where relaxation is a prime factor in easing pain and anxiety.
