This is why Bowen Therapy communicates with the body so well..

Research has determined that fascia tissues have 6x to 8x more proprioceptive sensory nerve endings than red muscle (Schleip 2017).

This makes the fascia system arguably the body’s largest sensory organ.

👉 That’s why we created the brand new Fascia Training in Athletic Performance mentorship program beginning this September!

For trainers, coaches, physical therapists, and bodyworkers that want their clients to be stronger, faster and more injury resilient.

Bowen Therapy addresses the stressors whatever the cause!

The body remembers what the mind may try to forget.

Tension, fatigue, cravings, and even skin flare-ups — sometimes, these aren't just physical. They're how the body tells its story.

Bowen Therapy doesn’t force the body to “fix” anything.

Through light, purposeful touch, it supports the nervous system in settling, as best it can — not by pushing, but by inviting.

Gentle moves, deep listening.

Bowen Therapy and AMT involves assessment and procedures to effectively balance your Pelvis!

Most people don’t realize your jaw and pelvis are linked. Not just through posture or movement habits, but through your developmental blueprint.

Around day 15 of embryonic development, two critical areas begin to form: the oropharyngeal membrane, which becomes the mouth, and the cloacal membrane, which becomes the openings of the digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems.

The spine grows between them establishing a physical and neurological connection that lasts your entire life.
This connection continues through fascia and the central nervous system. The dural tube, which surrounds and protects the spinal cord, creates a continuous communication pathway from your jaw down to your sacrum.

When there’s tension or misalignment in the jaw whether from clenching, TMJ dysfunction, or altered bite it changes head posture. Your body compensates to keep balance, often by tilting the pelvis or shifting your weight.

Over time, these small changes can show up as chronic hip pain, pelvic instability, or forward head posture.
There’s also a functional link: the jaw and pelvic floor are both involved in how your body stabilizes the spine. They’re part of your core system.

If your jaw is clenched, chances are your pelvic floor is either overactive or not firing properly. This affects posture, breath control, and how your nervous system regulates tension.

Posture isn’t just a matter of standing tall. It’s a full-body coordination between systems that started forming before you were even born.

Why not learn Bowen Therapy!

The brilliance of Bowen Therapy is in its specific simplicity, allowing the body time to reset, align and recover.

In essence the Bowenwork practitioner is a facilitator, not a manipulator.

By applying the moves, the practitioner gives the body specific neurological signals to relax, and then steps back for a few minutes to allow the body to 'relax itself.'

Compared to many other bodywork techniques, Bowenwork initiates an internal response that stimulates restoration of the body's equilibrium, rather than an external approach of manipulating areas of tight muscle tension until it is released.

Your body is not just a biomechanical machine. It’s an electrical symphony, tuned and powered by movement itself. And at the heart of this symphony is your fascia—a living, intelligent network of connective tissue that wraps every cell, muscle, organ, and nerve.

Fascia is made of tropocollagen, a triple-helix protein that forms a liquid crystal matrix. This matrix is piezoelectric—meaning it generates electrical current when it’s compressed, stretched, or moved.

Every step.
Every breath.
Every subtle pressure sends signals through this matrix.

These signals travel along collagen nanotubules, acting like fiber-optic cables, transmitting quantum-level information across the body at astonishing speeds. They help regulate repair, perception, coordination, and even emotional tone.

This is why movement is medicine.

It doesn’t just build strength—it activates the body’s regenerative field.
It doesn’t just improve circulation—it charges the fascia with current.

In stillness, the system can stagnate.
In mindful motion, the system comes alive.

This isn’t speculation.
This is measurable.
It’s how acupuncture works.
It’s why physical therapy is effective.
It’s why breathwork, somatic practices, and movement-based healing modalities produce such deep results.

You are not separate from the field.
You are not static.
You are a dynamic, self-healing matrix of light, pressure, water, and frequency.

Your body listens to how you move.
Your fascia speaks in electric code.
And regeneration is the response to coherent, conscious motion.

Move with awareness.
Charge the grid.
The current of life is always flowing.

TAUGHT IN 10 COUNTRIES SINCE 2014 this work will streamline your treatment due to its precise targeting of problematic structures. I have found, coupled with the pelvic work that this method has practically eliminated the need for clients needing to be referred out to a high velocity thrust style treatment as a large percentage of vertebrae respond beautifully to precise, gentle and safe soft tissue work.
SPINAL REFLEXES & THE NECK - (Treat the sacrum and release muscles effecting Dura and occipital muscles)
LEARN MOTION PALPATION OF THE NECK - (This extremely valuable assessment skill not normally available to Soft Tissue Therapists)
MANY NECK RELEASES - (You have no idea how free a neck will feel after this work is completed. Clients love this work!)
SEATED NECK WORK - Things change once in gravity. Iron out those restrictions that you missed in the supine neck work. Again these are the most effective seated work I have seen and why I want to teach it to you
LIGAMENTUM NUCHAE - This is my first specific neck correction as it releases so many neck muscles. This will amaze you at its effectiveness
CI - Some say the most important vertebra in the spine along with its Lovett partner L5. This is not effectively addressed in most Bowen teachings
NECK REFLEX - (The single best way I have found to align a vertebra quickly and gently)
UPPER TRAPS - (Learn an amazing way to return them to correct muscle tone without even touching them! I use this on almost everyone as the upper traps are the most common muscle to house trigger points)
PAIN BETWEEN SCAPULAS - Isolate the culprit muscle/s and treat accordingly
SUBSCAPULARIS - Learn a most effective way to treat this important rotator cuff muscle
UPPER THORACIC RIB FIXATION - Learn how to address the condition, which is often involved in shoulder, neck, and arm pain
And more....

Bowen therapy has such a profound impact on the nervous system. It reminds the body of its blue print, of the state before Trauma has laid its shadows over its light.
