The Bowen Technique

		The Bowen Technique

	How I discovered The Bowen Technique. I had suffered with a painful right shoulder for at least two years. At intervals, during this time a friend of mine (who lived 2 hours drive away from me) used to give me a Bowen treatment which I found helpful. However, the pain always returned and it became so painful it disturbed my sleep and I could not raise my hand above my shoulder. My friend advised me to find a Bowen therapist near to where I lived so that I could undertake a proper course of treatment. So in November 2007 I took her advice. I had a treatment every week for about eight weeks. At the end of this time I could raise my right hand above my shoulder and I had pain free sleep. I was very impressed as I had come to regard my painful shoulder as something I would have to live with. I decided to train in the Bowen Technique and in October 2008 I qualified as a Bowen Therapist having completed a course run by the European College of Bowen Studies ECBS www.TheBowenTechnique.com

Homeopathy is one of the few therapies that can be used alongside the Bowen Technique. For example if a client has had a fall it may be helpful for them to take a remedy such as Arnica to address the swelling and bruising as well as having a Bowen treatment to help the body to come back into balance after the trauma.

I am a member of the Bowen Therapy Professional Association BTPA and therefore I am bound by a code of ethics to practice safely and ensure the wellbeing of my clients.

The Bowen Technique is a holistic therapy which is safe GENTLE non-intrusive and very effective.

A consultation will involve taking a history of the problem prior to the treatment and usually takes 45minutes to an hour.

The Bowen Treatment.

Bowen Treatment is very gentle it is not a massage or a manipulation. The therapist uses only thumbs and fingers and makes rolling movements over muscles, tendons and ligaments at specific points on the body. The aim is to encourage the body to heal balance and realign itself. There are periods of rest at regular intervals throughout the treatment to allow the body to absorb the information the therapist has given.

An acute injury can be resolved in between one and three sessions. Chronic and longstanding conditions may take longer.
