Bowen TechniqueDeveloped by the late Tom Bowen of Australia, the Bowen Technique is a unique form of neuromuscular repatterning. Working primarily through the nervous system, it helps realign the body on both structural and energetic levels. Bowen can relieve muscle tension/strains, joint misalignments, improve the flow of energy through the meridians, release tissue adhesions, and more. Psychological and/or emotional shifts are also common, thus it brings both body and mind into balance. By allowing the body to reset and heal itself, Bowen results are lasting and profound.A Bowen session lasts about 1 hour and consists of a series of gentle rolling movements performed over connective tissue. There are frequent pauses between these moves to allow the body time to integrate the information. This pattern of movements and pauses continues throughout the session producing a soothing rhythm and a deep sense of well being and ease. Bowen is safe and appropriate for all ages and the technique can be performed through light clothing. Benefits are usually apparent within a few sessions, even when long-standing complaints are being addressed. The following is a partial list of conditions that can benefit from the Bowen Technique:
