History of Bowen Therapy
Bowen Therapy was developed in Australia by the late Thomas A Bowen (1916-1982). He viewed his work as a gift and developed procedural combinations of his therapy to address specific concerns. Though his therapeutic method has been systemized by many schools, the tenet of the therapies and procedures have remarkably remained consistent throughout the world. The remarkable story of Tom Bowen is laid out in his illuminating biography.
