How your treatment will work
What does a treatment involve?
A session will generally last around 45-60 minutes and most of the work can be performed through light clothing, although some therapists prefer to work on skin. However the ultimate choice will be the client’s.
Please arrive wearing something lightweight and non-slippery.
A t-shirt and loose trousers or shorts (not jeans) are ideal.
Three to four treatment, at weekly intervals, are often sufficient to achieve lasting relief although further treatments may be required. To receive maximum benefit, it is recommended that other physical therapies are not mixed with the Bowen Technique during your time of treatment.
