Benefits of using
Bowenwork:
- Bowenwork can get immediate
relief for common aches & pains that you get sitting at a desk.
- Bowenwork generally works
faster and lasts longer than traditional forms of stretching
because it works directly with your nervous system to reset
muscular tension.
- Bowenwork can
be used on the spot to get immediate release of muscle tightness
with no special equipment, lotions, or oils needed. The moves
can be performed over clothing.
- The work is
gentle. It is so gentle that anyone can safely do self Bowenwork
even if they can not receive other body therapies.
Description:
On a physical
level, Bowenwork is an extremely efficient way of re-balancing
muscle tension. Using minimal touch, you gently create a lateral
stretch or (move) over tendons, muscles and nerve bundles in a
very specific combination. The specific combinations of moves
are called procedures. The moves reset the body's muscular
tension, as well as help balance various body systems thereby
promoting healing and well-being. The body can also use the
energetic signals facilitated during a series of moves to elicit
deep, healing responses within the body on many different levels
- mind, body and spirit.
The class includes:
- Demonstration of each
procedure, with detailed explanation of anatomical landmarks
- Explanation and discussion of
the procedures and indications for their use. The handouts
include detailed notes, with photographs and anatomical diagrams
- Extensive supervised hands-on
practice, with feedback from the instructor(s)
In the 4 hour course you will
learn how to release:
Low back
Upper back
Neck
Chest
Elbows/wrists
