Gary Spencer - Bowen Therapy

What is Bowen Therapy?

Tom Bowen, its originator, saw that the underlying source of many musculoskeletal, neurological, neuromuscular and other health problems could be found in the soft tissue or fascia.

Fascia embraces all nerves, bones, arteries, veins, and muscles. Fascial dysfunction can affect every structure, muscle, nerve and organ in the body with nerve compression, muscle shortening, skeletal and organ displacement as typical examples.

Bowen is safe to use on anyone from the elderly to young children and on any condition from sporting injuries to chronic complaints.

A treatment consists of small gentle moves each at a specific site on the body. There is no forceful manipulation, just light cross-fibre moves over a muscle, tendon or ligament.

Bowen is gentle and effective, with substantial relief frequently attained after the first session. In many cases, only three treatments are required, one week apart.
Treatments usually last between 45 to 60 minutes.
