The Bowen Technique is a dynamic system of muscle and connective tissue therapy that utilizes subtle inputs to the body (known as “moves”), stimulating the body to heal itself.
It can provide relief for many types of injuries and other health problems, both acute and chronic, and it does so holistically, via the body’s innate healing mechanisms. The practitioner’s moves deliver signals to the nervous system at specific locations (on muscles, tendons, ligaments, or nerves), and the body responds in its own time.
Bowen Technique is appropriate for people of all ages, in all degrees of health.
When faced with an acute injury, the Bowen Technique practitioner may only need to address the affected areas. However usually clients develop problems gradually over a number of years, and so a more "whole-body" approach is needed to bring about recovery.
Bowen Technique addresses the entire body, by restoring balance by way of the autonomic nervous system. During a session, the client often drops into deep relaxation or falls asleep.
A typical Bowen Technique session generally lasts from 15 to 45 minutes but the first session can last longer.
Clients usually lie on a massage table, but can be seated. A 'session' involves one or more 'procedures', each of which consists of several sets of 'moves’. The moves are gentle, but purposeful, and can be done through light clothing.
Between each set of moves, the practitioner pauses for as many minutes as are needed for the client's body to begin responding. As the nervous system begins to adjust the tension level in the muscles, the practitioner senses when the client is ready for the next set of moves.
