What Is The Bowen Technique
The Bowen Technique (Bowen Therapy) is a holistic complementary modality for treating musculoskeletal, digestive, respiratory conditions and many more. This technique uses a series of soft tissue moves performed over muscles, tendons and ligaments which stimulate energy flow. This release of tension and stress empowers the body's own resources to naturally reset and heal itself.
How does it work?
Bowen moves work by relaxing the body's muscles and connective tissue (soft tissues) and removes distortions in the fascia (the fibrous connective tissue that holds us all together). Each move affects the soft tissues on a deep level. With the relaxing of the soft tissues, muscle tension and stress decrease. This tension release increases the body's circulation of blood, lymphatic fluid and promotes a healthier nerve supply throughout the body. It allows your body to realign itself - in it's own time.
Why Is It Effective?
Bowen Therapy works because it releases stored energy within the body. Stored energy can cause dehydration of muscles and muscle tension. The Bowen moves release the blood trapped in these muscles and redistributes it through the body. Blood flow is vital as it carries all the nutrients and minerals our bodies need to maintain health. A healthy body can eliminate bacteria and infections that cause illness.
Bowen Therapy is NOT Massage, it is NOT Reflexology, it is NOT Chiropractic Medicine and it is NOT Physiotherapy - It is the original Bowtech (The bowen technique).
