Bowen Therapy

Bowen Therapy in the Isle of Man

Bowen Technique is a hands on holistic muscle therapy. The technique aims to activate the body's own healing abilities, releasing muscle spasms and re-aligning skeletal imbalances as well as increasing lymphatic drainage and blood supply to the affected area. During a session the practitioner uses his/her hands on parts of the body such as muscles or other soft tissue using gentle rolling movements. These movements may activate a systemic response and a short pause is then observed to allow the response to be activated. A pattern of movements and pauses continue throughout the treatment.
