Bowen Technique

Bowen Therapy with Sue Jaycock

A gentle path to balance, relief, and renewed wellbeing.

 

What is the Bowen Technique?

Bowen Therapy is a gentle, hands-on bodywork technique that supports your body’s natural ability to heal. It’s non-invasive, deeply relaxing, and suitable for all ages. Whether you’re struggling with pain, feeling out of balance, or simply in need of some support, Bowen offers a soft but powerful way to reset and restore.

Developed in the 1950s by Australian therapist Tom Bowen, this unique technique uses subtle, rolling movements over specific points on the body - mostly on muscles, tendons, and fascia. These moves prompt the body to pause, respond, and begin to heal itself in its own time and way.

 

How Does It Work?

A Bowen session involves a series of gentle moves made with fingers or thumbs. Between each set of moves, there are short breaks - this gives the body space to process, adjust, and respond. These pauses are an important part of the therapy and are often when shifts begin to happen.

Clients remain fully clothed, and the experience is often described as calming and deeply grounding. Many notice improvements not just physically, but emotionally and energetically too.

 

What Can Bowen Help With?

People come to Bowen for many reasons. Here are some of the most common benefits:

• Pain Relief - Effective for back pain, sciatica, frozen shoulder, joint issues, and muscular tension

• Improved Mobility - Helps release restrictions in the body, improving movement and posture

• Stress & Anxiety Relief - Encourages the nervous system to shift into a state of rest and repair

• Whole-Body Healing - Addresses the physical, emotional and energetic layers together

• Better Circulation & Lymph Flow - Supports detoxification and the body’s natural rhythms

 

What to Expect in a Session

Your session takes place in a peaceful setting where you’ll feel at ease. You’ll stay fully clothed and lie comfortably on a therapy couch (or be seated if needed). I’ll carry out a series of specific Bowen moves, pausing in between to allow your body time to adjust.

Each session lasts around 45 to 60 minutes, and many people find improvements after just a few sessions - though everyone’s journey is different.

 

Is Bowen Right for Me?

Most likely, yes. Bowen Therapy is safe and suitable for everyone - from newborns to the elderly. Because it’s so gentle, it can be used even when other therapies aren’t appropriate.

Whether you’re recovering from injury, dealing with a chronic condition, or simply looking to support your wellbeing, Bowen offers a natural, holistic approach that works in harmony with your body.
