Bowen Association Australia

About BAA

Established in 1998, a group of practitioners and instructors who had trained at Bowen Therapy Academy of Australia and with Ossie and Elaine Rentsch found the Bowen Association of Australia.

With the Association, practitioners will have formal recognition and a unified voice on issues concerning spreading the great word about Bowen Technique throughout Australia. 

By obtaining formal recognition, the Association can also get insurance coverage more easily, and at a group discount.

Bowen Therapists in Australia are supported and guided by the Association and are recognised professionally as Registered Bowen Therapists. 

Furthermore, the Association acts as a liaison between the practitioner and the Bowen Therapy Academy of Australia and the affiliated Bowen Training Australia. 

The Association is dedicated to educating and training people in the Bowen Technique and to funding research in this field.

As part of its mission, the association strives to keep its members informed and updated through quarterly newsletters, upcoming workshops, and holding a two-day workshop held in conjunction with each AGM.
