Kathy Hodge : Hypnotherapist, Wellness Coach and Bowen Therapist
Wellness coaching to clarify the path forward & Hypnotherapy for life changes. I've been helping people as a manual therapist for over 15 years.
As a 'hands on therapist' with years of experience I help ease pain and discomfort, using The Bowen Technique by facilitating the natural repair responses in the body. I work intuitively using the Bowen Technique to help facilitate changes for people in pain or discomfort. There's no oils or rubbing just a gentle approach to working over the body. All work can be done over light clothing and regul
ar 6-8 weekly 'top-ups' are recommended for a number of conditions after initial treatment. Relaxing massage or Reiki; for people living with and going through cancer treatment. I have been working with Macmillan for several years, giving treatments to cancer patients at their centre at UHS.

🌟 Bowen Therapy: Evidence-Based Relief for Fibromyalgia 🌟
Did you know that a 2024 controlled trial explored the effects of Bowen Therapy on fibromyalgia syndrome? Here's what the study found:
✔️ Over 12 weeks, 132 participants were treated with either Bowen Therapy, a standard exercise program, craniosacral therapy, or static touch therapy.
✔️ Bowen Therapy stood out for improving quality of sleep and pressure pain threshold (the amount of manual pressure needed before pain is felt).
✔️ Even better, participants continued to feel these benefits 24 weeks after treatment!
This research highlights Bowen Therapy as a powerful option for managing fibromyalgia symptoms and enhancing quality of life.
I don't usually freeze myself to my husband at -120°C but a mad rush to the head yesterday, took us to a very local business, who obliged and gave us a right old freezing for 3 minutes. Had to be tried!

Sometimes you have to wait for reviews: This was a lovely email where the Mum and daughter want to be anonymous, so you'll have to believe these are her words and not mine. But I especially love the 'loo' mention! 😄😍🚾🚻
Kathy has recently helped my teenager to great effect using Bowen. She has released very tight muscles and stored tension due to school/exam stress. I am a big fan of Bowen and Kathy really knows her stuff. She is kindly and patient. The ground floor treatment room in her home is lovely and there is easy access to a loo should you need it.
I think we will both be back for more of this wonderful, powerful yet gentle therapy. Thanks Kathy!

More spreading the world of Bowen ...
🌟 "Bowen Therapy is gaining recognition as an effective method for pain relief and overall well-being." 🌟
This September, Bowen Therapy made its debut in Slovenia, and the response has been nothing short of incredible! A room full of dedicated physiotherapists, nurses, and health professionals came together—not just to learn the techniques, but to deeply understand the why behind this gentle therapy.
Slovenia’s growing interest in holistic health is paving the way for Bowen Therapy to become a cornerstone in promoting balance and natural healing. Imagine being part of a movement that transforms lives, one gentle movement at a time. 💫
Fascia, it's been a 'buzz' word in my Bowen Therapy world for over 20 years and still we're talking about it as we learn more about it's structure, integrity and connectivity.
Once upon a time, fascia was severely underestimated.
Previously thought of as basically just packing material, protecting our more important structures, it's now known that fascia plays a vital role in movement, immune function, and is our largest bodily organ, with the greatest capacity for sensation.

As a Bowen Therapist I use a light touch, rolling style move over muscles, ligaments and tendons to help stimulate the body's natural healing process. It’s a very gentle treatment which can have profound and long lasting effects. It can initiate responses in the body, that you might have forgotten from long ago. The classic ‘ripple effect’ analogy explains how a Bowen move in one place can trigger a cascade of change. Unlocking inbalances in the body can take one or several sessions, everyone and their presentation is different. As practioners we are always learning, we never know it all.
So who am I? I decided to travel to Australia in the late ‘80’s, for a working 12 month holiday in my 20’s but ended up staying nearly 12 years. Almost got married to my very own Crocodile Dundee, worked for Qantas Airways and returned back to the UK with a tan and an Aussie accent! I took up Corporate travel work in London, bought and renovated a house, got married and became a Mum to twins!
Why the Bowen Technique? This bit is a little weird. Whilst in Australia I lived in a place called Bacchus Marsh, not far as the Australian crow flies, from Geelong in Victoria.
Not until I decided to train as a Bowen Practitioner in 2002, did I know 5 years ealier, I had lived about 20miles from Geelong (the work place of Tom Bowen who pioneered his own methods of body work which have today become know as The Bowen Technique, Bowenwork or Bowtech) and I’d visited it a couple of times and never heard of Tom Bowen! Now when I return to Australia to see family and friends I often make a detour to Geelong.
