Introduction to Bowen Therapy
The Bowen Technique was developed in the 1950’s by Tom Bowen an Australian living in Geelong. Despite having no formal health training, he soon became a celebrated therapist. People would travel many miles for treatment which he often freely provided. Over 80% of the men, women and children he saw needed only two or three Bowen treatments to restore health -Tom did not believe in wasting people's time or money.
He showed a remarkable intuitive ability, as well as a dogged belief in his technique. His caseload developed to phenomenal levels, reaching a record 13,000 cases seen in one year.
After his death in 1982, his 6 trainees went on to teach their interpretation of the technique. Bowen Therapy finally found its way to Europe and Britain in 1995. Now, Bowen Therapy has international presence and acclaim. It is proving itself to be an adaptable and very effective treatment therapy.
