How can Bowen help with knee pain?
✅ Releases tension – Gentle Bowen moves relax tight muscles and fascia around the knee, hips, and legs, reducing strain on the joint.
✅ Improves circulation – Helps blood and lymph flow more freely, which can reduce swelling and inflammation.
✅ Calms the nervous system – Encourages your body to switch into “rest and repair” mode, helping pain to ease naturally.
✅ Restores balance – Addresses the whole body, not just the knee, so underlying imbalances in the hips, back, or feet that affect your knees can improve.
✅ Gentle for all ages – Safe, non-invasive, and effective for both recent injuries and long-term knee problems.
✨ Many clients find Bowen therapy helps with arthritis, sports injuries, post-surgery recovery, and everyday wear and tear.

For BACK PAIN, a Bowen session might address:
• Lower back tension: working around the lumbar muscles, sacrum, and glutes to ease strain.
• Mid-back stiffness: releasing the diaphragm and rib attachments that often affect posture and breathing.
• Neck/upper back pain: calming tight traps, shoulders, and spinal muscles.
• Pelvic alignment: balancing tension between hamstrings, hip flexors, and sacroiliac joints.

Bowen is very gentle, it’s also safe for people who find traditional massage or chiropractic treatments too intense.

Imagine your nervous system like a computer running background programs.

Stress, posture, and past experiences can create patterns that stay "on" even when you’re trying to relax.

That tight neck or achy back?

Sometimes it’s not just about the muscles — it might also be about how your nervous system has adapted over time.

Bowen Therapy works with the body in a way that invites change, offering a chance to reset and unwind (to the best of its ability).

Everyone is different. Always seek professional advice to find what’s right for you.

CFS
I often work with people with CFS, and Bowen therapy can offer some benefits for individuals particularly in areas like pain management, nervous system balance, and relaxation. There is often a lack of awareness and support for this condition but I have recently been made aware of a program of support for people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome by CFS Health. I am not making any recommendations for this company but simply putting the information out there for people to research it for themselves. I believe they also run a free Facebook support page.

Help for people with M.E/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, POTS and Post Viral Fatigue who want to get better, improve their health and quality of life.

🤔 How many Bowen Therapy sessions will I need?

One of the most common questions we get — and the answer might surprise you!

🌿 Bowen Therapy is gentle but powerful.
Many people feel noticeable relief after just 3 - 4 sessions. That’s because Bowen works with your body’s own healing ability, helping it reset and rebalance naturally.

✅ For acute issues (like a recent injury or strain), 3 sessions may be enough.
✅ For chronic conditions (like long-term pain, tension, or stress), you may need a few more — but always spaced out to give your body time to respond.

And the best part? Bowen is non-invasive, relaxing, and suitable for all ages.
