Bowen Therapy
Bowen Therapy was developed by Tom Bowen, a quiet man from Geelong in the 1950s.
A gentle but very powerful modality, Bowen Therapy can alleviate long standing and recent muscular-skeletal problems and other conditions in a relatively short period of time.
Working at a physical as well as an energetic level, the gentle manipulation of the muscles and fascia helps to facilitate rehydration of the cells, calm the nervous system, release tight muscles and detoxify and rebalance the body.
Whether you want to treat an old recurring injury or simply relax, Bowen Therapy will help!
It is safe and effective for people of all ages, from newborns to the elderly.

Bowen Therapy and Sinus Congestion
Bowen Therapy is well known and documented for its efficacy in relieving pain and regaining function after sport injuries, computer related injuries, frozen shoulder and back pain – but there is a side of Bowen Therapy that few are aware of – its ability to shift and drain fluid in the body including the sinuses and the respiratory system.
Tom Bowen’s own wife suffered from severe asthma and was often hospitalised so he developed procedures that combat symptoms of congestion and restriction in the respiratory system. The seemingly subtle moves help to eliminate waste from the organs by stimulating innate healing mechanisms in the body. People often leave the sessions breathing more easily and comfortably, with symptoms subsiding within 2 days of the session.
Treatment for unblocking sinuses typically last 30 minutes and usually no more than two sessions are required for mild conditions and three for more severe symptoms. This treatment can enhance and complement any herbal, dietary or medical treatment you are already taking. It is gentle, painless and can be used on people of any age, from newborns to the elderly.
So with Winter on the way, if you have niggling sinus congestion, why not give Bowen Therapy a go?

Hi Rayeleen and all
…Also, Lisa and Tanu were able to organise that I could have a Bowen treatment this afternoon and I just wanted to say that there is definite improvement in my back. I can walk without limping and the ache has dissipated. When I left the shop I had no pain at all though it has come back to a degree, but nothing like as bad as it was before I came. Tanu will know what I mean when I say my eyebrows are still aligned.
Thankyou for your care and consideration and I will see you next Monday for my next Bowen appointment.
Love to you all
M…… K….
