Bowen Therapy affects the central nervous system and visceral organs by addressing specific areas along the spine and other key points in the body.

Bowen Therapy works with your nervous system.

Its gentle touches encourage your body to shift from fight/flight/freeze/fawn, to rest and digest, where healing can occur.

The temporalis muscles are jaw muscles on the side of the head. They close the mouth, retract the jaw, and pull the jaw to one side when fired unilaterally. They are also common compensators for weakness through the body. It's common to see the temporalis muscles get really tight when there is any inhibition of frontal plane (side-to-side) movers, such as the lateral hips or abdominal obliques.

It's about facilitating healing, not forcing it.

Let the body lead the way.

The higher our vagal tone (strength or quality of signaling), the better for us.
Low vagal tone is usually accompanied by health problems.
Catch 22 - health problems will affect our vagal tone, and our vagal tone will affect our health.

If you’re a practitioner - do you know how to measure vagal tone, recognise vagal problems, and help increase vagal tone through your treatments?

There is growing evidence that stimulating the vagus nerve can improve well-being in many ways, including the reduction of chronic inflammation.

Studies have shown evidence that mobility improvements in the jaw can relieve tension in the pelvic area and vice versa. Additionally, if the hips or jaw is off balance, there is a good chance the other is too.

How could these two very different ends of the body be connected?

The connection begins during embryologic development at around day fifteen. In this stage, called gastrulation, two depressions form on the dorsal side of the embryo, which becomes the oropharyngeal membrane (goes on to form the mouth) and the cloacal membrane (goes on to form the openings of the urinary, reproductive and digestive tracts). The spine grows between them, and the two remain connected from their early beginnings as one being in the embryo.

The head and the tails are the cranium and the sacrum. The sacrum, located at the end of the spine in the pelvis, is important to the proper function of our spine and our ability to know where our body is in space, called proprioception.

Tensions and imbalances in the jaw can affect the membranes connecting the dura to the skull and affect where it is tethered below in the sacrum.

Uneven pressures and pulling in the sacral area can, in turn, affect the cranial attachments and lead to pain, dysfunction, and other symptoms on either end of the craniosacral system.

This uneven distribution can cause many symptoms across all body systems – from your cardiovascular to your neurologic, musculoskeletal, gut, and on.
