What To Expect In A Treatment

A typical Bowen therapy session lasts between 30min to one hour. While some people may experience relief after just one appointment, others may benefit from a series of treatments depending on their specific condition and response. The technique involves precise, gentle movements that can be carried out over light clothing or directly on the skin.

Between each set of movements, the therapist allows the body time to process the work. These short pauses are an integral part of the method and may involve the practitioner briefly leaving the room. As the session progresses, clients often enter a deeply relaxed state, with some even falling asleep as tension is released and the body shifts into repair mode.

Bowen therapy supports the nervous system in slowing down and rebalancing, creating space for healing and renewal. Most treatments take place with the client lying on a massage table, comfortably covered and kept warm throughout.

For individuals who prefer not to lie down or have mobility challenges, Bowen can also be performed in a seated position. Above all, the therapy is tailored to ensure the client remains at ease and fully supported for the best possible outcome.
