HOW DID BOWEN START?

Pioneered by Tom Bowen (1916-1982) in Australia in the 1950s/1960s. Mr Bowen developed certain procedures after years of experimentation and clinical trials.  It's these procedures that are taught today as the Bowen Technique or 'Bowtech'.

​

WHAT ARE THE PAUSES OR RESTS FOR?

These are given to allow the body to respond and integrate.

​

HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

First step is an Initial Session where a complete Personal History, Assessment and Treatment is provided.  It is recommended that this is then followed up with three sessions 5-10 days apart.  This gives both the client and the therapist an opportunity to address past and present conditions.  Some chronic conditions may require ongoing, longer treatment.

​

HOW LONG BETWEEN EACH SESSION?

5-10 days between each session is ideal.  This gives the body a chance to integrate the moves and the client to discover and discern any changes or shifts.

​

WHAT IF IT DOESN'T WORK?

I have often found that physical pain that is not shifting is often coming from emotional blockages.  Yes, the physical pain is very real and it's driving force is coming from an emotion, habit, person or circumstance.  Think about when you get "butterflies in your stomach" - this is a very real physical sensation and we all know it comes from nerves or anxiety.  If Bowen Therapy (or any other therapy for that matter) is not working for you then I would look at what emotional situations are happening in your life and recommend taking you through a Coaching session or two (see "Coaching" for more info).

​

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Please wear loose-fitting garments (no jeans, belts, slippery fabric, heavy fabric, restrictive or shapewear garments, etc).

​

DOES IT HURT?

The touch used is very gentle - nothing painful or uncomfortable.  It is not uncommon for clients to experience a range of sensations during treatment e.g. tingling, tenderness, warmth.  Most common is a deep sense of relaxation (often sleep), calm and wellbeing.

​

WHO IS IT SUITABLE FOR?

Due to the gentle nature of Bowen it is ideal for use on people of all ages, from babies to the elderly.

​

WHAT DOES IT COST?

Charges vary - please click on the "BOOK IN" tab for a full list.  

 

ARE THERE ANY DISCOUNTS THE MORE SESSIONS I BOOK?

​

WHAT IS PASSION AND PURPOSE COACHING?

We look at what makes you "tick" and the why behind what you do and want to do.  We bring out what you are passionate about, how you can make an income from your passion and the special sequence of success you can use to optimise your best results.  We also look at your ideals, what's stopping you from achieving them and help you come up with an action plan to achieve the results.

 

WHAT IS PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION COACHING?

We help you explore memories from your past to get to the source of your patterns of behaviour, emotional triggers, limiting beliefs.  Perhaps it is from a past event, a person/people, an institution or loss.  Understanding where it has come from, resolving the issue/s, and building new positive resources is an amazing process and can be absolutely life-changing.

​

HOW LONG IS A SESSION?

Passion and Purpose Coaching: 10 hours (usually over a 5-week period)

Personal Transformation Coaching: 14 hours (usually over a 7-week period)

​

HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

We strive to achieve the package hours.  However, if you find you would like more sessions you can re-book for the 10- or 14-hour block or pay per hour.

​

HOW LONG BETWEEN EACH SESSION?

Usually a week.  However, it is entirely up to you.  Sometimes we recommend 2-3 weeks break for you to process the changes or explore your new resources, skills and learnings.

​

WHO IS IT SUITABLE FOR?

Adults committed to taking action to be the best version of themselves.

​

WHAT DOES IT COST?

Please click on the "BOOK IN" tab for a full list.

​

WHAT CAN COACHING HELP ME WITH?

Passion and Purpose will help you discover what drives and motivates you, what you need to do to achieve the best life for you.  You will discover your Passions, your Talent (the thing you need to make money from doing what you love), and your individual sequence of success.  You will work out your ideals and what's holding you back from getting what you want, clear the blockages, look at your year ahead, set some goals and design your Dream Plan.

​

Personal Transformation is tailor-made for your specific needs.  It usually covers:

Gathering Personal History

Clearing Parental Programming (+ significant other people - siblings, ex's, bosses, etc)

Clearing negative emotions

Clearing negative beliefs and behaviours

We may also add the following depending on your needs:

Grief / separation

Stress / anxiety

Shyness

Drama Triangle

Anchoring and collapsing triggers

Dream analysis

​

Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss any of the above prior to booking.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE WORKSHOP?
