Bowen Therapy is known for its gentle touch and calming approach, which may influence the nervous system in various ways.
Here are a few potential effects:
1️⃣ Parasympathetic Activation
The slow, rolling movements and pauses used in Bowen Therapy are thought to engage the parasympathetic nervous system, often called the "rest and digest" system. This could support a more relaxed state, fostering a sense of calm.
2️⃣ Stress Reduction
The gentle and non-invasive nature of Bowen Therapy may help ease muscle tension and tightness, potentially contributing to reduced feelings of stress in the body.
3️⃣ Increased Body Awareness
The therapist's touch and guidance in Bowen Therapy may encourage individuals to become more mindful of their bodies. This increased awareness could help clients notice areas of discomfort and consciously release tension.
4️⃣ Pain Management
Bowen Therapy is often sought out to address physical discomfort. Its calming effects on the body might support a shift away from stress or tension-related responses.
5️⃣ Potential for Better Sleep
After Bowen Therapy, some people report improved sleep, which may benefit the nervous system by promoting restorative rest.
Each person’s response to Bowen Therapy varies,, so it’s important to speak with a qualified practitioner to discuss your needs and expectations.
