Bowen Therapy is gentle. Precise. Minimal.

Put simply, Bowen initiates the healing response in the body.

The movements intervene with the brain’s signals to prompt the body to let go of tension, stress and emotional baggage, as well as restoring our posture back to the ‘blueprint’ alignment that we have stored innately in our brains.

One of the (many!) beauties of Bowen Therapy is that it is so portable.

You can work with a person lying on a massage table, and you can work equally well with someone lying across the tailgate of a ute, on a bush walk, or across the end of a double bed.

You can even work on someone sitting next to you on a plane, or at a table in a restaurant, or standing in a department store.
