“Healing is a matter of time, but it is also a matter of opportunity”
Hippocrates
Bowen Therapy is a gentle form of bodywork, in which subtle movements are made over the muscles and fascia (connective tissue) of the body. This unique technique restores balance via the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), which controls over 80% of the body’s functioning and is very susceptible to external stressors.
These days many people live in a constant state of stress! Which leads to an overstimulation of the Sympathetic Nervous System priming the body to “Fight, Flight or Freeze”. In order for healing to take place there needs to be a shift from this state to Parasympathetic Nervous System dominance, allowing the body to “Rest, Repair and Digest”.
“The Bowen technique activates the body’s relaxation response”
