What is a Bowen Therapy
Treatment Like?
A typical Bowen Therapy treatment lasts 40-50 minutes and can be performed over light, loose clothing....no need to get undressed. All treatments are provided in private rooms. No oils or lotions are utilized, nor necessary.
After determining the client's medical history and presenting conditions, a treatment plan incorporating a sequence of moves is developed and performed around the spine and over specific areas of the body. This sends a message through the Autonomous Nervous System to the brain, triggering the body's own healing capacity to correct imbalances in the body.
Frequent pauses of about 2 minutes are taken between each set of moves to allow for a full integration of the body's response.
After a Bowen Therapy treatment, patients have reported feeling extremely relaxed, as if a weight has been lifted.
How Many Bowen Therapy Treatments Will I Need?
The number of Bowen treatment sessions required varies with each individual and the severity of the ailment. Many people start to experience a positive effect from the first session, but it may take three or more sessions to see results. Between three and eight treatments will generally resolve most conditions.
Follow up treatments, if required, are generally scheduled one week apart.
