Bowen Therapy

Bowen therapy is a gentle manual therapy that is used to relax the body and improve physical functions. It was developed in the 1950s by the Australian healer Tom Bowen and is based on the idea that the body has its own ability to heal, which can be activated by targeted stimulation of specific points in the body.

Bowen Therapy is used with children and young adults with various disabilities to relieve muscle tension, reduce pain and improve posture. It can also help to increase mobility and improve general well-being.

The therapy is very gentle and non-invasive. The therapist works with their hands on the skin and uses targeted movements to release tension in the muscles and connective tissues. The treatment usually lasts around 30-60 minutes and is repeated at regular intervals to achieve long-term results.

Bowen Therapy can be used for many different disabilities, such as cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, autism, developmental delays and muscular dystrophy. It can also be used for children with sleep problems, digestive problems and other physical complaints.

Overall, Bowen Therapy is a gentle but effective form of therapy that can be used for many different disabilities. It can help to improve the physical function and well-being of children and young adults with disabilities. However, it is important to find a qualified and experienced therapist who is familiar with Bowen Therapy in order to achieve the best possible results.
