I use Assessment Led Bowen Therapy to make assessments of the body before, during and after treatment to ensure symmetry is achieved and maintained. Small moves are made over fascia, muscles, ligaments and tendons to release tension and encourage the return of circulation to painful areas of the body.

Assessement Led Bowen is a Neuro-Musculoskeletal Release Technique. This firm but gentle therapy pinpoints the area of dysfunction and works over areas of tension with rolling moves using the fingers and thumbs. This aims to restore function and create relaxation in the body. This work can be carried out through light clothing.

You are an individual and no one else is the same as you. This is the same for Bowen treatments, which are tailored to the outcome of your assessments and responses to treatment. If you have had an issue for many years, it is unlikely to resolve immediately, but often relief can be experienced within the first few days, if not immediately. Your body will continue its adjustment and realignment in the following days. This can mean you might be a bit uncomfortable or sore, but this will pass, providing you are able to follow the aftercare information. This includes drinking plenty of water and making sure you move regularly.

Maintenance sessions vary from person to person and so are guided by you, your work and your lifestyle. Most people come for top-up sessions between 4-8 weekly and these will ensure that the Bowen continues to work and prevent a return or exacerbation of your original problem.
