🌿 Balanced Body Bowen Therapy with Mandie Aitchison🌿
ABOUT ME:
Hi, I’m Mandie Aitchison, a mum of three, qualified Bowen therapist and the founder of Balanced Body Bowen Therapy. WHAT IS BOWEN THERAPY:
Bowen Therapy works with the fascia — the connective tissue that surrounds and supports the entire body — and the nervous system to help the body relax, reset, and restore balance. Think of it li
ke placing a Band-Aid on a cut. The Band-Aid doesn’t heal the wound — your body does. The Band-Aid simply supports and facilitates the healing process. Bowen Therapy works in the same way. Through gentle Bowen moves, the therapist stimulates the body, and then your body does the work of healing — often referred to as “the therapist within.”
BOWEN CAN SUPPORT:
~ Physical tension, pain or injury (acute or chronic)
~Mobility, posture and muscle function
~Stress relief and nervous system regulation
~ Emotional release and mind-body balance
~Digestive, respiratory and hormonal support

🌿 SESSION OPTIONS:
🍃BOWEN THERAPY FOR PAIN, INJURY & GENERAL RELEIF
DURATION:⏱️ Sessions: 30–60 minutes
PRICING: $80 (packages with discounted rates also available)
HOURS: 9:15AM - 2:30PM
* (Additional/Limited afternoon appointments available from 3:30pm on selected day)
This session is ideal for but not limited to:
~Physical discomfort and mobility concerns
~Reliving aches and pains
~Support recovery from acute or chronic injuries
~Improve mobility and posture
~Calm the nervous system
(shift from fight or flight to rest and digest when the body is in a heightened fight/flight state it cannot repair and respond to healing)
~Promote deep relaxation
~Support the body’s natural self-healing process
~Monthly maintenance sessions to keep the body running optimally (think of it like regular servicing you do to your car - keeping everything moving and running smoothly to prevent wear and tear and not waiting for a breakdown)
This is a great option for first-time clients or those wanting focused physical relief, or for regular maintenance sessions to keep the body functioning optimally. HOW IT WORKS:
Gentle, precise Bowen moves are performed to relieve tension, calm the nervous system (helping the body shift from fight/flight state into rest/digest where it can respond to healing) Improve mobility and support the body's natural self-healing capabilities. Pauses between moves allow the body to integrate these changes and activate its own healing process before continuing (think of it like switching on a computer - you need to wait for it to load before it can work properly)
RECOMMENDED SESSIONS:
Depending on what you're coming in for, some clients feel relief and notice a difference after just one session. Chronic or ongoing issues usually benefit from 3 to 6 sessions to lock in the changes and support lasting results (for example, if you have had back tension for months, one session may relieve discomfort and provide relief, but multiple sessions help the body remember the new movement patterns and reduce the chance of tension returning supporting longer lasting results) After this initial series, monthly maintenance sessions can help keep the body on top of these changes and maintain optimal function

This slower, deeper & integrative session blends Bowen Therapy with intuitive body awareness & meridian informed observations. DURING THE SESSION:
~ You'll be guided to notice any physical sensations, shifts or emotional responses
~ Checking in with these sensations gives your body a chance to tell the story of what it may be holding.
~By observing patterns along meridian pathways, we help the body release tension, restore flow and find balance.
~We work with how stress and tension may be held physically, allowing the body to guide the process.
~Guided by meridian-informed observations and intuitive body awareness, this session helps the body unwind, reset and restore harmony
This session is ideal for those who:
~Feel physically tense or overwhelmed & stressed
~Are stuck in ongoing and deeply held stress patterns
~Want a deeper, more integrative Bowen experience
~Are seeking nervous system regulation and whole-body balance
~Individuals who are open to potential emotional release or shifts as the body releases stored tension and stress from the body and restores balance calm and flow. RECOMMENDED SESSIONS:
One session may create noticeable shifts, but 3- 6 sessions are typically recommended to fully release stored tension and integrate longer lasting balance. After this initial series monthly maintenance sessions transitioning over to General Bowen therapy sessions can help retain the results and support long term well-being
PACKAGES SESSIONS:
Boking multiple sessions allows your body to fully integrate changes, release stored tension and support lasting results. Packages also give a small discount compared to booking single sessions. WHY PACKAGE SESSIONS:
Consistency helps the body fully integrate changes more fully
Multiple sessions spaced closer together help the body lock in new movement patterns, reduce tension returning & maximize lasting results. RECOMMENDED TIMING OF SESSIONS:
Ideally, sessions in a package are designed to be booked closer together, within 5-10 days of each other to build on the changes from the previous session. But we understand life happens, so if you need to extend slightly beyond that, it's okay - you'll still get the benefits, and we can adjust where needed to suit you. After completing a package, many clients move to monthly maintenance with general Bowen sessions to keep their body's running optimally. GENERAL BOWEN ~ PAIN, INJURY & PHYSICAL RELIEF

🍃 Words I Live By
• The body achieves what the mind believes
• Healing is not about fixing the body — it’s about awakening the body’s innate ability to heal itself
• Your body’s ability to heal is greater than you’ve been led to believe
• The body whispers before it screams — listen
• Healing starts from within
• The fascia remembers, even when the mind forgets
• A healer doesn’t heal you — they hold space while you awaken your own healing
