what is the bowen technique?
The Bowen Technique was developed in the 1950s by, the Australian, Tom Bowen. It is a gentle hands-on myofascial release technique that prompts the body to reset, repair, balance and realign itself to how it naturally should be. A lot of rehabilitation methods force the body to accept treatment, the Bowen Technique helps your body to help itself, at its own pace.
The Bowen Technique is a gentle therapy that is applied to areas of the body, using thumbs and fingers in a specific process or order. The move is a rolling-type move of the thumbs and forefingers, and is designed to stimulate nerve pathways which allow a ‘conversation’ to take place between different nervous systems of the body. Bowen is very gentle and suitable for all ages.
