How does Bowen work?
The Bowen Technique is a holistic, non-invasive alternative therapy. It targets soft connective tissue, particularly the fascia, and resets the nervous system. This then stimulates energy flow, promotes circulation, increases mobility, and encourages the body to relax, realign and heal itself. It is an entirely unique system in the way it heals the body.
What is the cost of an appointment?
£45.00 per treatment. There is no extra charge for a first appointment.
How long does each appointment last?
The first treatment includes a consultation to assess the clients needs, and to take note of their medical history and current medication. It is also used as an opportunity to put the client at ease and for them to also have any concerns addressed before starting the treatment. A first appointment usually lasts 60 minutes, and follow-up appointments between 45 - 60 minutes.
How many appointments will I need?
Most conditions take between 3- 4 sessions. It depends on the severity of the problem, how long the problem has been around for, and how many problems need to be addressed. Sometimes an old injury can be resolved in two sessions, and other times it will take much longer, everyone is different. Sometimes regular maintenance appointments are required to sustain positive results.
What do I need to wear to an appointment?
I personally prefer to work directly on skin rather than clothing as I find I achieve better results, but can work through light, loose-fitting clothes if preferred. For men a pair of thin swim or running shorts are ideal.
