I have been taking Bowen therapy for a couple of months now. I have had multiple issues for years, so we are anticipating my response will be very slow. My understanding is the sooner you can begin Bowen after injury/onset the better.

My therapist is also one of the teachers of this technique, and she is excellent. She uses a combined approach, not just pure Bowen. I have seen some progress, but like I said, mine is quite slow because of time and multiple physical issues.

I would encourage you to try it with an open mind, the will to be completely involved in the process, and willing to do any home exercises given. The technique is gentle, but you can walk away feeling everything from relief to soreness to total exhaustion. It is not massage, and it is not like chiropractic adjustment. It is a process developed to re-educate your nervous system signals.

I would be willing to answer any specific questions you may have, that I can . . . here, or you can PM me . . .
