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.

What is Bowen Therapy?

Treatments are typically performed through clothing and in whatever position is most comfortable for the client. Each adult session lasts approximately 45 minutes. During the treatment, you will rest on a massage table while the practitioner performs a series of Bowen moves, interspersed with pause periods. Many clients find the experience deeply relaxing, and it’s common to drift off to sleep.
