General Information about Bowen
Ideally, Bowen treatment is done directly on to skin, but can be done through clothing.
Please wear thin, loose fitting garments - no lycra or jeans. You will be asked to lay face
down on a couch to start with, then you will need to turn over after about 15 - 20 minutes.
Bowen can also be performed whilst sitting on a chair so is ideal for disabled patients
unable to lay down.
It is important not to receive any other therapies (ie. reflexology, reiki, massage, etc) 7 days
before or after a Bowen treatment. Mixing therapies can result in your body becoming
overloaded with different information & may effect the outcome of the treatment.
Please continue any medication, exercise & nutritional programme, herbal, homeopathy or
bach flower remedies.
Bowen treatment can have a detoxing effect on your body, so it is important to drink plenty
of water afterwards & to have short walks regularly during the day. This will help flush your
body of toxins, prevent any aches developing & continue to stimulate the energy flow.
A leaflet with this information is handed to you during the consultation.
Please contact me if you have any queries.
