The simplicity of the Bowen move belies its power but, unfortunately, Tom Bowen didn’t say how Bowen works!

These include the
The Bowen treatment helps the body replace this tension – and pain and dysfunction – with the relaxed and healing benefits of the parasympathetic mode.
Bowen frees up the connection between the different layers that makes up your body.
These connective tissues are called fascia, and they unite and tie everything together in your body including internal organs, muscles, bones, and central nervous system.
However, no manipulation or adjustments are made and no force is used to shift bones into place.
However Bowen works, it is not a form of massage!
Instead, there is a gentle rolling over muscle tissue, done usually in a particular order, each move setting up for the next one so how Bowen works is very relaxing!
Incidentally, and for those interested in acupuncture: there are many links between where Bowen moves are made, ie how Bowen works, and the underlying acupuncture channels and channel points.
How Bowen works, it seems, is by rebalancing, strengthening and toning the acupuncture channel (or ‘meridian’) system.
A growing body of opinion thinks that acupuncture also works by influencing the fascia.
Of course, acupuncture has a comprehensive and sophisticated view of health, which goes back nearly 3000 years whereas Bowen lived in the early 20th Century so ‘Bowen’ therapy is much more recent.
