What is Bowen Therapy?

Bowen therapy is a holistic treatment that addresses the entire body rather than focusing on a single complaint. It is because of this, a treatment usually consists in the relief of many health problems, including injury, pain (chronic and acute), stress and emotional issues. The Bowen moves signal the body to send messages to the brain via the ANS (autonomic nervous system) to restore the balance and harmony. Through treating the cause rather than the symptoms Bowen therapy has consistently shown it can have profound and permanent healing and pain relief outcomes.

How it works

The Bowen technique rebalances the body to allow it to heal itself by activating through the nervous and endocrine systems among others. Bowen moves are done at the origin, insertion, or belly of muscles where receptors are located. Each Bowen move is done at the level of superficial fascia and affects the relationship between the fascia and the nerve, muscle or tendon being mobilised. Bowen moves also cross over acupuncture points and meridians. The overlap of these two systems could explain the very strong vibrational patterns that bring the body back into balance and harmony. Some Bowen moves activate drainage of the lymphatic system stimulating the immune system and detoxification is often initiated thereby improving the body's ability to function at a cellular level.

About your Practitioner

Kate Anderson

My journey to becoming a Practitioner started 18 years ago through personal injury. After trying different modalities, it became clear Bowen Therapy was paramount to my recovery, not only healing the injury but unlocking the body as a whole. It is this holistic benefit that got me excited about Bowen and on becoming a practitioner, I witness this every day. My goal is to be a student to the Bowen method for life, to continue to grow and learn, to pass on the healing benefits and to excel in this technique showing gratitude to the founder, Tom Bowen and my personal mentor Desley Faulks.
