The Bowen technique is a dynamic system of muscle and connective tissue therapy that is used to treat body imbalances of all kinds including musculoskeletal pain, respiratory problems and digestive disorders. The gentle moves on soft tissue stimulate physiological changes & energy flow, empowering the body's own resources to heal itself. The work consists of a series of precise moves on specific points of the body. The structure (muscle, tendon, or nerve sheath) is identified with the thumb or the fingers. The skin slack is gently tractioned in the opposite direction to the intended move. Then the muscle is challenged with gentle pressure in the direction of the intended move. Finally, the skin is allowed to move across the structure to the limit of the available skin slack, most often medially, in the direction of the spine. The result is a clearing of blockages and an overall feeling of well-being.
