Can Bowen Therapy help me?

 

Bowen therapy can be used to help a wide range of conditions including common physical problems like back, neck and shoulder pain as well as knee, ankle and foot problems. It may also be an effective treatment for headaches, respiratory problems, bowel problems and hormonal conditions. Even injured athletes find the method helpful as a remedial therapy during recovery. Despite being considered a form of body work, it may also help with emotional conditions such as depression, stress and anxiety.

 

It is also worth noting that due to the therapy's nature, the Bowen technique can be useful for people of all ages.
