BOWEN TECHNIQUE
Bowen and Structural Realignment
​
​​
I trained with the ECBS in the UK in the Bowen Technique which is the leading body of Bowen in the UK and Europe. ECBS is well recognised for it’s involvement in clinical studies on various ailments such as frozen shoulder, and one of my primary teacher’s Alastair Rattray was featured on BBC’s Tomorrow’s World for his impressive research and results in working with Asthma sufferers, specialising in children.

​
The Bowen Technique is gentle enough to be used on newborn infants, pregnant women and chronic sufferers of disorders such as fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue. Other problems Bowen can help with are:
​
​
-
Sciatica
-
Back pain
-
Neck pain
-
Chronic headaches and migraine
-
Sinusitis
-
Hayfever
-
Pelvic Rotations
-
Sports Injuries
-
Restless leg and many other physical and emotional ailments

I have trained with many other excellent teachers over the years such as Graham Pennington in advanced Bowen assessment and technique and John Garfield in Applied Musculoskeletal Techniques and I combine these techniques to create the most effective treatment possible for your particular needs. Over the years, I have developed my own series of deep tissue neck movements to release and reset vertebrae and cervical muscles. I will never do any sudden movements or cracking. Each person has personalised and modified work based on their primary needs.
​
The Bowen Technique consists of gentle rolling movements over muscles, tendons and ligaments throughout the body. It facilitates gentle release of tension and locked muscles but can also help promote relaxation emotionally. The neck work I do can be deeper as the neck holds deep memories of all the body experiences via the top of the central nervous system.
​
It is my experience that people can have sudden releases and breakthroughs in their healing process. It does not have to mean dozens of bodywork sessions or years of talk therapy. Sometimes the healing can be so profound from a few short sessions that it completely changes the direction of a person’s life. The more a person works with me, the faster that process happens. It truly blows me away on a daily basis watching how quickly a body can heal.
