Bowen Therapy

The Bowen Technique is a soft-tissue manipulation modality. It comprises a specific series of muscle and connective tissue movements used to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal problems and sports injuries, as well as other conditions such as asthma, hay fever, kidney problems and TMJ dysfunction.

These gentle, yet powerful moves send a neurological impulse to the muscles and the brain, which help realign and restore balance to the muscles, joints and nerves. Many of the moves are located along acupuncture meridians or on specific acupuncture points that are known to stimulate and balance the body's energy. The moves are thought to stimulate the Golgi tendon apparatus and the muscle spindles, resulting in relaxation of the muscle. The resulting relaxation leads to an increased blood flow, better nervous conduction and con sequently, rapid healing.
