My clients aren’t the only ones benefiting from a bowen treatment, I love what I do and always feel in a better mood after helping someone else feel more comfortable ☺️

Why do we tend to feel so good after Bowen? Gentle touch and bodywork have a direct impact on lowering the stress hormones that create "flight/flight/freeze," and can boost "feel-good" neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, and oxytocin.

Things aren’t always what they seem.
In this example, we see that a pain felt in the centre of the buttock, often diagnosed as sciatica, may in fact be caused by the gluteal nerve becoming entrapped.
In both cases bowen work can be used to relieve tension through the gluteal region which in turn takes the pressure of the entrapped nerve.

Are you experiencing nerve pain in the center portion of the glute? Sciatic nerve, right? Not necessarily. The superior gluteal nerve can get entrapped between the posterior portions of the glute medius and glute minimus and give you localized nerve pain right around that area. This is an especially common problem among runners. Pigeon pose, the 90/90 stretch, and foam rolling the hip rotators can help. Here's a video for rolling out the hip rotators. This isn't a hip rotator problem, but the position of the stretches also gets the relevant area. https://bdme.ch/7o5n

As someone who uses my hands for a living I know how easy it is to forget to look after them. They are our precious tools, we can help look after them with the use of Bowen 🙌

Sometimes you don't know just how tight something has been until it suddenly isn't. The hands are a great example. Many people, especially those that work with their hands, carry a lot of tension (if not fibrotic thickening) in the palmar fascia of the hands. Though this can create all sorts of problems, those problems typically aren't felt in the hands. I usually address one side at a time in a session and clients are always totally blown away how different their hands feel from each other.

I'm pleased to announce that I am now available for Bowen Therapy treatments. Bowen is a dynamic form of therapy consisting of a sequence of small ‘rolling’ movements made with the hands in specific regions of the body. Each move works across the muscles, tendons and ligaments and can be focused to treat a specific injury or to work on the body as a whole. Please do get in touch to book an appointment.
