What is Bowen Therapy?
Bowen Therapy is a holistic remedial body technique that works on your fascia. Your fascia is the soft connective tissue of the body that envelopes, separates and supports every organ and tissue in your body.
I first discovered Bowen therapy in 2015 and loved it’s gentle ability to heal everything from acute sports injuries to neurological problems. This gentle and effective therapy does not use forceful manipulation, and treats the cause of your problem, rather than the symptoms. It is safe for anyone, from newborns to the elderly.
The Technique.
The Bowen Technique is applied in a specific order, using the thumbs and forefingers in a gentle rolling movement. The process is designed to stimulate nerve pathways which allow a ‘conversation’ to take place between different nervous systems of the body.
Meet your Bowen Therapist.
Hi, I'm Sarah, your Bowen Therapy practitioner. Like many people, I have suffered from back pain for most of my life. In 2015 I suffered an acute sciatica episode. To heal my pain, I tried everything. Nothing helped until I tried Bowen therapy. I felt an immediate improvement in both the pain level I was experiencing and freedom of movement. This is what inspired me to train as a Bowen therapy practitioner.
What I love the most about Bowen therapy is how gentle and deeply relaxing it is. It is a natural pain and stress relief treatment that calms the nervous system and brain waves. It releases blockages and tension, thereby allowing the body to begin its natural healing process.
When I'm not treating patients, you can find me teaching reformer Pilates, Latin dancing, bushwalking, making soy candles or spending time with my family and dogs.
