The Bowen Technique

"It's a technique that resets the body to heal itself"

Thomas Ambrose Bowen (1916-1982) began developing his technique in the 1950s in Geelong, Australia. He became interested in ways to alleviate human suffering and began to notice that certain moves on the body had particular effects. Tom Bowen developed his technique without having previous formal training in any modality or discipline. Because this technique is so effective, it has been widely embraced by a broad spectrum of people. Health professionals are impressed by the effectiveness of the Bowen technique and the diversity of problems addressed by it.

Bowtech can be beneficial in a wide range of situations. It can assist recovery from many conditions, from traumatic injury to chronic illness, depending upon each individual’s capacity to heal. Many clients report that Bowtech is THE most relaxing modality they have ever experienced.

Some of the conditions that often respond favorably to Bowenwork are: back pain and sciatica; digestive and bowel problems; earache and TMJ problems; migraines and other types of headaches; fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome; hip, knee, ankle and foot problems; menstrual and hormonal irregularities; neck and shoulder problems (including ‘frozen shoulder’); groin pain, pelvic tilt and uneven leg length; respiratory problems and hay fever; RSI, carpal tunnel syndrome and tennis elbow; and Sports and other traumatic injuries.
