Bowed Therapy describes a variety of therapies based on the work of the Australian bodyworker Thomas Bowen (1916-1982). His work consists in large part of rolling or flicking moves over muscles, tendons and ligaments.
A typical session takes place over 30-40 minutes, with occasional 2-5 minute breaks during the session, allowing the body to respond to the treatment. Sessions are usually part of a series of 3 to 5 sessions, beginning with general stress loading points such as lower and upper back, before moving to problem specific areas.

Course Description
Levels 1 & 2: The beginning seminar in Bowen Therapy teaches the widely popular Australian Techniques. Over the Three-Day period, the Basic Bowen moves are presented in a hands-on atmosphere where students participation is encouraged. Emphasis is placed on reading the body, and learning how Bowen's philosophy is individualized to each client. Students receive a manual written by Bowen Therapy Training, Inc., and a 22 - hour merit diploma is awarded at the end of the class. This is a prerequisite for certification and Advanced Bowen Therapy Training Seminars.
Training DVD available upon completion of this course. If you're doing research, the Basic I and II class that we teach includes all the basics that other associations teach in levels I through VII, so the course is a good value in comparison.
Students please wear loose, comfortable cotton clothing to class. Please no jeans, spandex, or underwire bra. Please bring a set of twin-size sheets to class, pillow, and a handtowel.
