[WHAT IS BOWENWORK?
Bowenwork is based on the principle that our bodies are self-healing and with the right stimulation, our body can return to a healthy state. Bowenwork is a powerful, yet gentle therapy that has many applications for use. Each move applied sends a healing message to the body allowing it to relax and restore proper function. It is unique in its ability to bring about many changes in the body without force or manipulation, and is safe for infants to the elderly.

Bowenwork is a manual therapy whereby gentle moves are performed over various connective tissue points. The response from these movements is an activation of the nervous system where signals are sent to the brain. These signals made by the Bowen “moves”, over-ride conscious movement and thought, thereby directly stimulating the parasympathetic or healing mechanisms of the body. This signal also stimulates the proprioceptors in the muscle tissue, creating a message that alerts the nervous system that the “emergency is over.” Once the body recognizes that it no longer needs to be stuck in this locked state, it begins to heal. The process is very gentle and does not require inflicting pain or force to achieve results. Instead it’s working with the body’s own electrical circuits to speed up the healing process]

Hi.
a clinic opened up just down the street from me so I thought what the heck might as well try it out I have tried all else! so I went for the treatments as she suggested they were relaxing as it lasts 45 to an hour.....but I didn't find one bit of difference and I really wanted it to work so even placebo didn't work for me....but that is only my experience......

She puts her hands in different spots on your body and pushes or pulls them to the places she has to then leaves the room for a while then comes back when I am just about asleep and does another thing....over and over for the hour........

I may go back but it was 60.00 a treatment and no reimbursment from anyone!!!

take care love and hugs,
Victoria
