Bowen triggers an improvement in joint mobility and muscle flexibility; encourages increased circulation of lymphatic and venous fluids; better assimilation of nutrients and the elimination of toxins; a reduction of physical, emotional and mental stress; and a better overall flow of energy throughout the entire body.

There are no contra-indications to stop any person receiving some Bowen treatment, so it is safe for the old and young, and everyone else!

It is usual to give treatment with you laying on the massage couch, but the technique can also be applied while you are seated. The treatment can be given with you fully clothed (through light clothing) or in underwear with appropriate towels to cover you.

The subtle moves that are performed by several series of gentle rolling movements over the muscles and connective tissue send messages deep into the body, retrieving cellular memory of a relaxed and balanced way of being. There are frequent important pauses between sets of moves, which give the body time to relax, assimilate and respond to the moves. By selecting appropriate combinations and sequences of moves, your practitioner is able to address the body as a whole, and also target specific problems.
