What Practitioners Are Saying

Exploring the BowenFirst™ Technique (Bowen Therapy): A Gentle, Painless Healing Method

Bowen Therapy was first developed by Australian therapist Tom Bowen, who dedicated his life to exploring the mind-body connection and developing a healing technique that would be gentle and effective. His work eventually led to the teaching of Bowen Therapy, which incorporates a variety of gentle movements and manipulations to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes.

The BowenFirst™ Technique is a comprehensive healing method utilizing Bowen Therapy that prioritizes patient comfort and has gained popularity among both patients and practitioners. This gentle modality is highly effective and relies on extensive research on the mind-body connection. It offers a safe and effective path to healing, free of pain and discomfort.

One of the key benefits of the BowenFirst™ Technique is that it is completely non-invasive. Patients who have undergone the treatment report feeling relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire process, and many experience significant improvements in their condition after just a few sessions.

Another advantage of the BowenFirst™ Technique is that it has been shown to aid in a wide range of conditions, from chronic pain and inflammation to anxiety and depression. By targeting the root cause of these issues rather than simply masking the symptoms, the BowenFirst™ Technique offers a long-term solution to many common health problems.

Overall, the BowenFirst™ Technique is a safe, effective, and non-invasive way to promote healing and wellness. Whether you are struggling with a chronic condition or simply looking to improve your overall health and wellbeing, it is definitely worth considering as a potential treatment option.

Frequently Asked Questions:

 

WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF ANATOMY AND I’M NOT PHYSICALLY STRONG?

Don’t worry- these methods won’t require you to use any strength and you will receive the first 4 lessons of Functional Muscle Anatomy in PDF form via email to help you prepare for the course. 

The best thing about this program is that the techniques are so simple that you will feel confident using them after your first time trying them! 

 

DO I NEED TO BUY ANY EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS OR TOOLS?

NO! The educational materials you need to learn are included in the Healing Accelerator Workshop. The only things you need to provide are two hands and one big heart! Additionally, there are recommended educational materials available for purchase to enhance your learning and skills, but these are entirely optional and not a requirement as the course is designed for adult learners.

WILL BASIC BOWENFIRST™ THERAPY MOVES CAUSE PAIN TO MY LOVED ONES OR PATIENTS?

NO! BowenFirst™ Therapy is gentle and non-invasive. Unlike other treatments, BowenFirst™ Therapy does not use deep tissue manipulation which is often the source of pain during treatments. Instead, BowenFirst™ Therapy works on the fascia – the soft, connective tissue that envelopes the muscles and organs – without pressure.   It isn’t painful; however, if the practitioner is working on an area that is already painful and inflamed due to injury, trauma, etc., the injury itself may cause pain. In such cases, the practitioner will adjust the treatment to minimize discomfort.

This non-invasive therapy is considered safe for individuals of all ages and fitness levels as it is a holistic treatment that addresses the entire body and mind, instead of focusing on specific problems or symptoms. After a BowenFirst™ session, many individuals report feeling deeply relaxed and energized, with improved range of motion and reduced pain. 

 

WHAT MAKES BOWENFIRST™ THERAPY DIFFERENT?

BowenFirst™ Therapy stands out in several ways, including:

Gentleness: This technique is non-invasive and completely safe, making it a relaxing treatment option that promotes healing from within.

Body Communication: Unlike other therapies that work against the body, Bowen Therapy works with the body to restore balance and promote healing through effective communication.

Speedy and Long-Lasting Results: Many patients report significant improvement in their condition after just three sessions, with complete success achieved in as little as 10 treatments. This means faster healing, less time, and cost savings for patients.

Overall, BowenFirst™ Therapy provides a gentle, effective, and holistic approach to healing that sets it apart from other treatment options. 

 

HOW LONG UNTIL I SEE RESULTS FOR MY CLIENTS WITH BOWENFIRST™ THERAPY?

For most individuals, significant improvements can be seen after just three weekly sessions of BowenFirst™ Therapy, with 85% of people experiencing relief from pain. Some clients may notice up to 60% improvement after just a single session. This shows the efficiency and effectiveness of BowenFirst™ Therapy in providing rapid relief for many people. However, the specific results may vary depending on individual conditions, and ongoing sessions may be recommended for longer-term benefits.

Each person’s response to Bowen Therapy is unique, and many factors, such as the severity of the issue and individual health, can influence the pace of progress.

 

WHAT CAN I USE BOWENFIRST™ THERAPY FOR?

BowenFirst™ Therapy is becoming increasingly popular among individuals looking to reduce pain caused by muscular or joint-related injuries, as well as movement restrictions. Whether it’s a short-term or chronic issue, BowenFirst™ Therapy has proven to be a viable treatment option for a variety of conditions, including:

“Love the way it was taught. We got to see it, experience it, do it, teach it. Following that, performing an entire treatment with the pauses really solidified our learning.”

~Dr. Kim Little, ND

“This is a great course for anyone interested in healing. The course was fun, educational and insightful. As a massage therapist-in-training, it is a whole new way of looking at the healing process. Bowen is about taking a step back to look at the bigger picture, then with this perspective, focusing in on the actual issue.”

~Mike Burnett Moncton, NB

“Awesome. Dr. Manon is confident and easy to follow & understand. Based on the course content and skills learned in a very short time, this course has exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend this course to others. In depth information together with an intense hands-on-training has really helped me to understand the technique.”
