Bowen Therapy works with your nervous system.

Its gentle touches encourage your body to shift from fight/flight/freeze/fawn to rest and digest where healing may occur.

How does Craniosacral Therapy work? The description below feels quite accurate. Such a powerful technique.

CCST graduate shares: “A question I get asked a lot, and to be honest words are quite limiting when trying to explain how this beautiful treatment works…. But I am going to try anyway….

I could go in to quantum physics, or anatomy, or how the nervous system functions… But don’t worry I wont 😅 (stay with me here)….

I want to explain craniosacral therapy from my personal perspective, from a heart centered space ❤️…

As a practitioner, as I gently lay my hands on you during your treatment, I am attuning to you….. Like a radio dial tunes in to a certain radio station frequency, my dial is tuning in to your entire being… Every aspect of you that your being is ready to show me, I will pick up on and hold space for…

I may be feeling your physical aches and pains, points of tension in your body, your emotional state, your nervous system, your overall flow of energy, where you may feel blocked, where your energy feels free and expressive….

Your body will be speaking a thousand words, and I will be listening, deeply.

As I am present with and consciously acknowledge what I am feeling in your body and in your being, I notice changes… Ah something just released, something just opened up, oh and something just relaxed, something needs a bit more space and something is drawing me in a bit closer….

As we go deeper in to the session we often go deeper in to your being, we work through more layers and stuff you have been carrying around with you for years may begin to show itself…

And this whole entire time, I am doing very little but holding space for all of this expression of yours, by simply being deeply present with you, without judgement, without an agenda, without trying to change you….

And this is what initiates your healing… This is what allows your body to find its way back to regulation, back to calm, back to feeling grounded, back to a deeper connection with yourself…. Everything feels a bit more open, a bit lighter and you may feel like something big has shifted but you can’t quite articulate it…

& then I thank your being, for allowing me to witness you whilst you heal yourself 🫶🏼”

Post with appreciation to 🙏🏼

Bringing balance in your life with Bowen Therapy.

When posture and the nervous system don’t see eye to eye

When the body is out of alignment — maybe one shoulder sits higher, or there’s a slight shift through the spine — it’s not just a structural issue. This unevenness can affect how the brain and body communicate.

Uneven posture can send mixed messages through the nervous system, influencing balance, coordination, and even emotional regulation. For some people, especially those with retained primitive reflexes, this imbalance can keep old movement patterns “switched on.”

Reflexes such as the ATNR, STNR, TLR, and Spinal Galant are designed to help us develop in infancy — but if they’re not fully integrated, they can contribute to muscle tension, altered spinal curves, or inefficient movement patterns later in life.

Bowen Therapy offers a gentle way to bring attention to postural and nervous system patterns, inviting the body to explore greater ease and balance as best it can.

Pain’s location isn’t always pain’s explanation.

Pain isn’t always the problem.

The sore spot isn’t always the source.

That’s why Bowen Therapy looks at the bigger picture — patterns of tension, compensation, and imbalance throughout the body.

Because lasting change may begin where you least expect it.

Every ache, every tight muscle, every moment of fatigue tells part of your story.

Bowen Therapy listens to all of it — not just the symptoms.

Because true care means working with the whole person, not just the sore spot.

Your body doesn’t lie.

From skin to fascia, posture to hormones — it’s always giving us feedback.

Bowen Therapy encourages us to slow down, listen, and work with the body’s design.

Chronic tension isn’t always about physical strain — it can be a learned state of the nervous system.

Your body adapts to stress, posture, and daily habits, sometimes holding onto patterns longer than needed.

Becoming aware of these patterns is the first step toward change.

Bowen Therapy engages with the nervous system in a gentle way, offering an opportunity for the body to respond, as best it can.

Regular maintenance appointments keeps the body and mind balanced. Imagine if you never got a wheel balancing on your car or a service. Your body deserves love and attention. A Bowen treatment is less than a service for your car. May you never know what you prevent.

We typically schedule regular services for our cars, yet ignore the subtle signals from our own bodies until something breaks down.

Bowen Therapy invites the body to unwind, reset, and return to a more balanced state — no warning light required.

Make time for maintenance. You’re the vehicle that matters most.

You can replace a car. You can’t replace your body.
