Nearly 80% of participants in a national study reported reduced frequency or severity of migraines after receiving Bowen Therapy.

Migraines are more than just headaches—they often come with visual disturbances, nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and can significantly affect day-to-day functioning. Triggers are wide-ranging: hormonal fluctuations, stress, nervous system dysregulation, sleep imbalance, and even posture or tension held in the neck and jaw.
Bowen Therapy offers a gentle, non-invasive approach that works with the nervous system, rather than against it. By helping the body shift into a parasympathetic state (“rest and repair”), Bowen can support:
• regulation of stress and tension
• better sleep and hormonal balance
• improved circulation and lymphatic flow
• reduction of muscular holding patterns, particularly in the neck, shoulders, and jaw
Unlike many interventions, Bowen doesn’t force change—it invites the body to reorganise and regulate itself from within.
For people living with chronic migraines, this shift in internal state can be profound.
