Bowenwork Keeps the Body in Balance

Bowenwork is a gentle, yet powerful hands-on therapy that triggers the body to heal itself.  It can provide permanent healing and relief of pain from a multitude of acute and chronic conditions. Bowtech, the original Bowen technique,  uses gentle, non-invasive muscle rolls that stimulate the body to reset and heal itself. A Bowenwork session consists of a series of gentle moves on skin or light clothing, with the client usually lying on a treatment table. A session usually lasts from half an hour to an hour, and frequently results in a deep sense of overall relaxation, allowing the body to recharge and balance itself.

            Lisa Teets, owner of Bowenwork, says, “Initially, two Bowen sessions are scheduled a week apart. Clients usually see significant improvement within these two sessions. Additional sessions are scheduled at least a week apart as needed, with most conditions resolving within three to eight sessions. Some chronic, systemic conditions can take longer (such as fibromyalgia), but there should be continual improvement.  Some clients also feel they benefit from a Bowen maintenance in order to continue the balancing effects and schedule accordingly.”
