The Bowen Technique is the work of Australian osteopath
Tom Bowen.
A simple technique that helps relieve various types of
pain, unlike massage or chiropractic methods, there is no manipulation or
force used. A practitioner uses their thumbs and fingers to gently move
muscle and tissue.
The treatment is a very gentle procedure.
The Bowen Technique helps to stimulate lymphatic
circulation.
Sessions with a qualified practitioner last between 30
minutes and 45 minutes. No oils are used and most of the work can be done
through loose clothing. At times during the session, the practitioner will
leave the room, during this time your body has time to adjust. Many people
experience relief after just one session, and typically less than 5
sessions are required for lasting relief.
