What is Bowen Therapy?
The Gentle Healing Technique
Bowen Therapeutic Technique (Bowen Therapy) is a dynamic system of muscle and connective tissue therapy that encourages the body to right itself. This technique involves a gentle roll over the muscle. By using a set system of these small moves from the base of the neck to the tips of the toes, with small waits of 2 minutes or more between sets of moves, the Bowen Therapist stimulates the body’s innate healing system to realign and re-balance.
What to expect when having a Bowen Therapy Treatment?
Bowen Therapeutic Technique (Bowen Therapy) is completely safe for the newborn baby to the frail and elderly. It is gentle, fast and an effective way to treat health concerns from sporting injuries to pain, stress and discomfort. Bowen Therapy stimulates the patient’s musculoskeletal system into realigning itself.
The beauty of Bowen Therapy is that it will not interfere, and works well, with all medication and/or dietary supplements and is gentle but powerful. A treatment takes about one hour.
What can Bowen Therapy do for me?
Bowen therapy is versatile and a dynamic remedial therapy which assists with a varied assortment of health concerns. Each treatment lasts about an hour.
Bowen Therapy is effective in treating:
asthma, sinus, hay fever
musculoskeletal pain
sporting injuries
stress and tension
migraine
bells palsy, vertigo, ringing in the ears

circulation problems, lymphatic congestion
Why does Bowen Therapy not combine or integrate with any other modality?
One of the most frequently asked questions by both Clients and Professionals in Townsville alike is:
Why does Bowen therapy not combine or integrate with any other modality?
Tom Bowen demonstrated that Bowen Therapy is less effective, or will cease to function at all, if any other modality was combined with his technique. This has been shown to be true when my own clients have chosen to ignore this and have, for example, had a massage after having received a Bowen Therapy Treatment. The results of that massage has stopped the Bowen Therapy. This though has sadly not stopped others from attempting to combine Bowen Therapy with other modalities, leading to a lot of misinformation about Bowen Therapy and it’s effectiveness as a treatment. When searching for Bowen Therapy not just here in Townsville Queensland Australia be sure that you are receiving Bowen Technique and not a combination Technique.
