Conditions that benefit

So now you're probably wondering, "Can Bowen help ME?".

Below is some information to help you understand how Bowen works. With this information you can decide if Bowen sounds right for you.

Each person responds differently, at different rates and to different degrees. You will respond according to your own body's ability to heal.

Bowen addresses the entire body holistically. You may see improvements in conditions that you forget to mention to your practitioner, even if they are located far from where the practitioner touches you.

In any case, you would know after two or three sessions at most, whether or not Bowen is helping you with your particular compliant.

Although no list of conditions can be complete, many conditions do respond much more often than not. 

It's the body's response to Bowen, not the Bowen itself, that brings about the healing.

Musculoskeletal Conditions

  • back pain — lower, upper, mid-back
  • bunions
  • carpal tunnel syndrome
  • chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia
  • frozen shoulder
  • groin tension or pain
  • hammer toes
  • hamstring pain or tightness
  • jaw pain / misalignment
  • knee pain
  • neck pain, restricted range of motion
  • plantar fasciitis
  • sciatica, sacro-iliac pain
  • scoliosis
  • shin splints
  • sporting injuries
  • sprained ankles
  • sternal pain, spring ribs
  • tennis elbow

Internal Conditions

  • ADD / ADHD
  • colic in infants
  • gynecological issues (PMS, difficulty conceiving, menopausal symptoms)
  • headaches, including migraines
  • hiatus hernia, reflux
  • indigestion, constipation, diarrhea
  • rehabilitation after stroke
  • respiratory problems, including asthma
  • some cardiovascular problems
  • stress

How many sessions will I need?

This varies greatly from person to person.

Many conditions are effectively changed in fewer than 3 to 5 sessions.

Musculo-skeletal symptoms generally change the fastest, neurological symptoms the slowest.

Some chronic or organic conditions may require ongoing maintenance sessions.

Many clients choose to have monthly or quarterly maintenance sessions ("tune-ups") once their initial complaints are addressed.
