Bowen Therapy originating from Australia and the founder Mr. Thomas Ambrose Bowen is a holistic and dynamic system of muscle and connective tissue therapy. It utilises small inputs to the body via gentle touch from the practitioner. Gentle and progressive.
Here are 5 of the many ways in which Bowen Therapy can help:
- 1. Bowen therapy is known to help for back pain and sciatica. Prolonged sitting with school and work has resulted in back pain and issues to occur, especially in the lower spine for many of us. Gentle rolling of muscles by Bowen within the lower back and gluteal region may aid in back pain and sciatica.
- 2. With many food sensitivities, intolerances and allergies seen in present day, Bowen Therapy work done within the core of the body may aid with digestive and bowel problems. It may reduce symptoms causing discomfort and effecting daily living.
- 3. Many events can occur day to day unexpectedly and Bowen Therapy may aid not only in general traumatic injuries, but also traumatic sport injuries among athletes.
4. Our ears and jaws are our balance centres of the body and through stress and clenching, our jaw can be offset leading to various concerns such as vertigo, dizziness, earing and visual issues. Bowen Therapy can aid with TMJ and Ear problems and help clear up the symptoms.- 5. The foundation of bodily health comes from whole body alignment and Bowen Therapy can aid in whole body alignment through work done on the hips, knees, ankles, back and neck. Specific procedure may be done for specific regions of the body resulting in alignment reset. Improved alignment reduced wear and tear on the ligaments, cartilage and bones of the joints. An important ant-aging treatment in this way.
