for Pain Free Living

A Bowen Quantum Natural Health Session,

when Chiropractic and Physical Therapy have not given you the results you expected.


A
Bowen Quantum Natural Health Treatment lasts about 30-60 minutes. Your practitioner "rolls" over the muscles with their thumbs or fingers, which causes the muscles to relax.

The Treatment is usually done through loose clothing or directly on the skin. No oils are used. 

The Bowen technique moves are done in groups. Between some of the sets, there are pauses of 2-5 minutes to allow the body to relax and respond.

The Moves send out signals which:
* release tension;
* stimulate energy flow;
* facilitate lymphatic drainage of toxins and waste;
* promote good circulation;
* increase mobility;
* encourage the body to relax, realign and heal itself.

Some people feel shifts and changes in their bodies during and after a
Bowen Quantum Natural Health session. While many experience immediate pain relief, improvement is just as likely to unfold over the next few days to a week. Bowen is not an on-going modality and two or three treatments are usually enough to achieve long-lasting relief. Even long-term conditions may respond very quickly. The ideal situation is to have the Bowen Technique for 2-3 sessions, once per week, without having any other kind of bodywork in between.

How does it work?
The
Bowen Quantum Natural Health Technique affects the body primarily through the nervous and the bio-energetic systems, to bring it into a state of balance.

Why are Pauses so important?

A unique feature of the Bowen FK Technique is that there are frequent pauses. These breaks are crucial in your Bowen Quantum treatment in order to allow the body to respond to the messages and begin to make its own healing adjustments. By applying hands on Quantum Energy directly to any problem areas of the body during these waiting periods, the healing responses are greatly enhanced and results in a faster healing process.


Autonomic nervous system rebalancing
The autonomic nervous system controls over 80% of bodily functions (cardiac, respiratory, peripheral circulation, reproductive, endocrine, gastrointestinal) and is very susceptible to stress and emotional tensions. For healing to happen, the body needs to shift from sympathetic (fight/ flight mode) to parasympathetic (vegetative mode) dominance. For this to happen, it needs time and space to literally unwind and "digest" physical and emotional stress. The
Bowen Quantum Natural Health Technique facilitates these positive shifts.

Stretch Reflex
Most Bowen FK Technique moves are done either at the origin, insertion or belly of fascia or muscles, where the Golgi and Spindle nerve receptors are located. These receptors inform the nervous system of the state of tension, length or stretch in the fascia, muscles and tendons and are stimulated during the rolling part of the Bowen FK therapy movement.

Lymphatic circulation
The Bowen Fascial Kinetic Technique stimulates lymphatic circulation and drainage.

Spinal reflexes
Many of the Bowen FK moves are performed along the spine over the erector muscles (two thick columns of heavy muscles on either side of the spinal column which run from the base of the pelvis to almost the full length of the spine). These moves appear to produce referred reactions to other areas of the body.

Often people will mention that conditions were addressed, other than the one for which they originally sought consultation, - even though the practitioner didn't know about them (e.g., improved digestion, elimination circulation or sleep).

Fascia
The fascia, sheets of connective tissue, connect everything in the body: muscles, bones, internal organs and central nervous system. They play a major role in muscle coordination, flexibility, postural alignment and overall structural and functional integrity. The Bowen FK technique moves free the relationship between the fascia and the nerve, muscle or tendon being addressed.

Acupuncture Points and Meridians

The
Bowen Quantum Natural Health Technique stimulates circulation of energy and clears energetic blocks. Coincidentally, several of the moves are located along acupuncture meridians or on specific acupuncture points which are known to stimulate and balance the body's energy.

What Happens?
A Bowen FK Technique move consists of mild finger pressure against the side of a muscle or tendon for about three seconds, then a rolling movement over the top of the muscle or tendon, then a release, which allows the muscle or tendon to spring back to its normal position. Bowen FK moves are often performed in pairs - called "stoppers" that contain the effects of subsequent moves within a limited area.

The fascia, muscles or tendons are moved to create an impulse that rebounds from the stoppers back and forth for about two minutes until the area relaxes completely. This relaxation response is most probably mediated by the golgi tendon apparatus. When the tendon is pressed sideways, then released, the golgi apparatus sends an impulse to the spinal cord that causes a relaxation reflex in the muscle.
