Pain is complicated.

While pain can signal injury or dysfunction, it can also be a response to stress, memory, past trauma, or an overwhelmed nervous system.

Understanding this opens the door to new ways of supporting the body — not by forcing change, but by listening and responding with care.

Approaches like Bowen Therapy may create space for the nervous system to settle, so the body can do what it instinctively knows how to do: repair.

Hope for Depression — the Power of the Vagus Nerve and Bowen Therapy

New research has found that stimulating the vagus nerve — a key communication pathway between the brain and major organs — can significantly improve the quality of life in people with treatment-resistant depression.

In a clinical trial of 493 participants with major depression, those who received vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) showed measurable improvements in mood, daily functioning, and overall wellbeing — even after years of unsuccessful treatment.

👉 And here's where Bowen Therapy comes in.

Bowen Therapy has a specific vagus nerve procedure, and its aim, along with all Bowen moves, is to shift the body from the flight or fight response (sympathetic nervous system) to the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest mode) where healing can occur.

While the trial involved an implanted device, Bowen Therapy uses the body’s own healing intelligence — with no drugs, no force, and no devices — just targeted, mindful touch.

The vagus nerve connects — and so does Bowen.

"When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change " - Wayne Dyer

Bowen therapy changes the way we look at how we can facilitate healing and underestimate how amazing the body is at healing.

What is Bowen Therapy?
Bowen Therapy is a form of holistic care. Holistic therapies take into account the whole person, the underlying causes of symptoms, and how mental and physical health relate.
Bowen therapy involves gently stretching and manipulating the soft connective tissue in the body, known as the fascia. Therapists can use the technique to address a variety of neurological and musculoskeletal disorders.

Bowen treatment engages both the body and mind via the fascia and the autonomic nervous system. Many people report their experience of deep relaxation, pain relief, more optimal body function and movement, recovery of energy, reduced stress level, circulation improvement, and lymphatic drainage after being treated with Bowen Therapy.

Bowen therapy encourages the body to rest and repair, reminding the body of its innate ability to heal itself. Just as it does when it forms a scab over a wound.

Bowen is safe and beneficial for everyone.

I fell in love with Bowen over years of receiving treatments at various times in my life as well as seeing the amazing benefits for my husband's chronic back pain. So I thought "I must know more!"
