What is Bowen Therapy?
Bowen Therapy, the gentle body therapy;
So…… what is it, and what can it help you with?? 🤔
It works on your connective tissue and your nervous system, and in doing so, it helps reduce plain, increase range of motion and flexibility.
It can also be supportive when there is hormonal imbalance or burnout.
It seems to be really useful for migraines, headaches, and vertigo.
For babies and children, it can work wonders on reflux, unsettledness, and hyperactivity, to name but a few.
Bowen is gentle, it can be given through light clothing, it does not manipulate, and it is very well tolerated by newborns right up to the elderly.
Have a look at this 5-minute video, as it explains everything you need to know.
I offer Bowen Therapy from my Naturopathic clinic and am happy to discuss your specific needs if you are interested in trying Bowen Therapy for yourself.
Warnings about scams

Here’s what to watch out for:
🔍 Unrealistic offers or promises of easy money that are too good to be true
🔍 Pressure tactics: Scammers may rush or threaten you to act immediately.
🔍 Requests for personal info: Be cautious if you’re asked for bank details, passwords, or sensitive information.
🔍 Unusual payment methods like gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers.
🔍 Unverified contacts: Emails, calls, or messages from unknown or suspicious sources.
How to protect yourself:
✅ Stop and think before sharing personal details or making payments.
✅ Don't click on any links until you know that it is safe.
✅ Verify the source: Contact the organisation directly using official channels.
✅ If something’s not right, it's OK to hang up, walk away, ignore it and move on.
