A Bowen treatment involves specific moves (rolling type move) being made over precise points on the body. It consists of the movement of soft tissue such as muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia. These moves stimulate the nervous system and brain, as nerve pathways are triggered by actions that send essential information to the brain. This focuses the brain on the areas which require healing and initiates the process of repair. There are breaks during Bowen treatments of a few minutes for the nervous system and brain to respond effectively. These breaks are essential, and the length of the breaks will vary from client to client and with different procedures. Post these breaks, upon returning, the therapist will observe the body and check how the body has responded to determine what other moves/procedures are required for the client. Every client’s treatment is different, and thus moves/procedures will alter. Even if two clients have Bowen therapy for the same complaint (i.e., back pain), their treatment is likely to vary. This is because Bowen therapy treats the body as a whole, not in parts, and all treatments are tailored to the individuals’ specific presentations. This is what makes Bowen so effective. Price:
