Background Information
THE BOWEN TECHNIQUE was developed by the late Tom Bowen in Australia. Tom Bowen (1916-1982) devoted a lifetime, in Geelong, Australia, to developing this gentle and innovative approach to bringing the body's own healing abilities into action. It is a unique system of muscle and connective tissue therapy that often has amazing results. Gentle moves over the fascia of the muscles and tendons stimulate energy flow and empower the body to heal itself. Two minute waiting periods are incorporated into each session.
Tom Bowen developed a whole healing system. He claims to have received the therapy as a "Gift from God." Tom was treating more than 13,000 patients a year and rarely more than two sessions per person. The Bowen Therapy Academy of Australia was founded in 1987 naming the technique BOWTECH® - The Original Bowen Technique. Bowen Therapy is not designed to be a substitute for medical advice or treatments recommended by a Doctor. It will work effectively alongside normal allopathic medicine.
Mrs Wheeler from Chertsey had a badly swollen left knee, was limping in pain, unable to straighten her leg for the last three months. After one treatment she said, "I can't believe it! My knee has gone back, I can straighten it! It feels looser. I am astounded! You do such tiny moves. It is amazing!" She later said, "I have since had 3 sessions with you and continue to be amazed at the results. I am doing the exercises you gave and using the soda crystals regularly, the swelling is reducing well and my knee is around 95% straight. I just wish I had heard about The Bowen Technique 3 months earlier than I did. Brilliant."
