A Bowen move isn’t just a touch — it stimulates sensory receptors, triggering a neural feedback loop that tells the body to self-correct.

⚡️ With the right assessment, one precise move can activate lasting change across the system.

👉 That’s the difference between chasing symptoms and transforming outcomes with Assessment-Led Bodywork.

Muscle Meets Dura

Headaches may start in the neck - Assessment reveals the link

👉 The suboccipitals connect directly to the dura.
The suboccipital muscles at C1–C3 don’t just move the head — they connect directly into the dura.

⚡ Tension here can trigger headaches, dizziness, even low back pain.

👉 With Assessment-Led Bodywork, you learn to identify these hidden links and correct them at the source.

Every Bowen move stimulates sensory receptors within the tissue. That stimulation triggers the body’s built-in correction system — the neural feedback loop.

⚡️ The body adjusts itself. Our role is to assess, apply the right intervention, and then confirm the change.

👉 That’s the foundation of Assessment-Led Bodywork.

Jaw pain from your pelvis?
Pelvis & TMJ: The Hidden Link
Your jaw and pelvis are not separate players — they’re connected through the spine, fascia, and dural tension.
A rotated pelvis can shift TMJ alignment… and jaw dysfunction can ripple down to the hips.
🔑 Assess the pelvis before you treat the jaw.

Your body is so intelligent and is constantly communicating with you …maybe it’s time to stop, breathe and listen to that innate intelligence.

Tension isn’t always caused by what we think.

It’s not always about sore muscles or poor posture — sometimes, chronic tension can reflect a nervous system stuck in “go mode.”

When your body doesn’t feel safe enough to relax, it can hold on to patterns long past their use.

Bowen Therapy works with the nervous system in a gentle way — using minimal input, space, and stillness to invite a shift.

Sometimes, less really can be more.

Bowen treats the whole system not just the site of the pain ..we treat the whole body not the symptom 🙌

Clients often point to the pain.
But the body adapts — and the site of pain is often a decoy.
It’s where the system gave up, not where the dysfunction started.

ALB helps you see past the distraction and work with precision.

Do you suffer with migraines? 🤯

Nearly 80% of participants in a national study reported reduced frequency or severity of migraines after receiving Bowen Therapy.
(Source: Nikke Ariff, National Migraine Research Programme, 2002)

Migraines are more than just headaches—they often come with visual disturbances, nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and can significantly affect day-to-day functioning. Triggers are wide-ranging: hormonal fluctuations, stress, nervous system dysregulation, sleep imbalance, and even posture or tension held in the neck and jaw.

Bowen Therapy offers a gentle, non-invasive approach that works with the nervous system, rather than against it. By helping the body shift into a parasympathetic state (“rest and repair”), Bowen can support:

• regulation of stress and tension
• better sleep and hormonal balance
• improved circulation and lymphatic flow
• reduction of muscular holding patterns, particularly in the neck, shoulders, and jaw

Unlike many interventions, Bowen doesn’t force change—it invites the body to reorganise and regulate itself from within.

For people living with chronic migraines, this shift in internal state can be profound.
