Bowen Therapy is suitable for all from newborn babies to the elderly and is even practiced widely on animals, particular horses, worldwide. The wide range of conditions that Bowen Therapy can assist with are phenomenal, regardless of how long or short you have been suffering from the ailment. Below you will find a list, which is not exhaustive, however it gives examples of conditions that respond well to Bowen Therapy.
A typical Bowen Therapy treatment lasts between 40 – 60 minutes depending on the individual client and the condition that is present. Clients ideally lie on a massage table in order to achieve maximum benefit and relaxation, however, if required, a treatment can be performed seated in a chair.
Bowen Therapy is a gentle, non-manipulative hands on treatment, which involves very specific but gentle moves over the body’s fascia (soft connective tissue), muscles, tendons and ligaments. Between these moves there are short, but very essential pauses, which allow the fascia to respond. Disturbing the fascia, the moves trigger messages within the body’s Central Nervous System (CNS) and in effect reminds the body to address any imbalances in chemical composition, body misalignment or other issues that could be causing internal pain or ailments. Sounds impossible? Ask anyone who has enjoyed Bowen Therapy and they will tell you that it’s not, with many after only one treatment experiencing immediate reduction or relief from pain. Read More
Although the technique, developed by Tom Bowen, has been around since the 1950’s it was only in 1986, after Tom’s death, that those who had observed him practice and his methods were permitted to teach the technique and pass on their knowledge. With this in mind the modality is still very much in its infancy and many have not heard of the technique. This however is rapidly changing as more and more discover the wonderful world of Bowen and it is now one of the fastest growing modalities in the world. If you research the technique you will actually find that doctors, physiotherapists, chiropractors, athletes and many more are now discovering how beneficial it is to their line of work and are indeed training in the technique themselves. We at My Bowen Therapy™ truly believe that in years to come you will hear people say that they have an appointment with their Bowen Therapist as frequently as you hear people say the same of Chiropractors and Physiotherapists.
The Bowen Technique is in its own category due to its ability to build and compound on the previous session/s. The rapid effectiveness, very low cost and its ability to bring permanent relief in very few treatments stands the therapy out from others that people generally associate with pain management.
Your therapist will have their qualifications on display in the centre. If you have any questions regarding your therapist’s credentials, please ask and they will be more than happy to assist.
Your therapist may advice you not to have any other form of physical therapy to other forms of manipulation such as massage, chiropractor, physiotherapy etc. for 5-7 days after your treatment while your body adjusts to the treatment. After your treatment you will be give advice on how to get the maximum effect and benefits from your session.
Instant relief is very common however it all depends on the condition you present with. In most cases some level of relief is felt during or within a few hours of the session. The majority of clients however find that as their body’s soft tissue is in such a deep state of relaxation that they feel the need to sleep earlier than usual that evening, and indeed have reported “the best nights sleep they have experienced for a long time”. When they wake in the morning the condition has often vastly improved.
The Bowen technique is safe for everyone, from newborns to the elderly, it also safe for any neuromuscular or musculoskeletal issue. Whatever your age or health issue, give Bowen therapy a chance to show you what your own body has the amazing ability to do.
Wear light clothing that allows your practitioner to locate the relevant muscles, tendons, ligaments and soft tissue freely. Please refrain from wearing Denim or other thick materials. You may bring along gym attire or comfortable loose clothing to change into prior to your treatment if desired.
Every body is different and therefore results will vary. Many experience instant relief after just one session however results vary depending on the presenting condition. As the technique displays fast results, as a rule of thumb unlike other therapies and treatments, a Bowen Therapist will never tell you that you need weekly visits for ongoing long periods. Typically the majority of clients require ONLY 4 sessions to vastly improve or even eliminate the symptoms they presented with. Chronic or long-standing conditions or repeated injuries however may require additional treatments as and when the client feels the need for a “top up”.

I feel so much relief from the pain I have been suffering for over more than 30 years. Muna (my earlier therapist) and Aazeen (my current therapist) are such gems with their magic fingers & their warm smiles and you walk away more informed about your body too. Thank u ladies! Now i come for a tune-up every now and then. My 73 year old mom and 98 year old grandma are very happy with the results of their sessions. They are enjoying more agility and a lot less aches and pains. Kudos to My Bowen Therapy! 🙂read less - 1/21/2020

The doctor told me that if the pain came back, he’ll submit me for operation. I searched for alternatives and found My Bowen Therapy; I was not sure if they’ll be able to help, but they did help from the first session; I was able to move smoothly and the pain just fade away like magic; I am feeling better now. I would recommend them for anyone, they worth the 150 RM you pay to them per session.read less - 12/30/2019

Before I came across MyBowen Therapy I was having tight muscle issues from my left shoulder all the down to my legs and have also noticed a muscle discomfort/pull in my left Psoas. I've tried chiropractors and physios but the results were not satisfactory and the muscle tightness came back after a few weeks. And so I decided to give MyBowen Therapy a try, but not without doing my own research first. So guys, it pays to google up "Bowen Technique" to understand better what it is all about.
My first session was with Aazeen and I must say she is very caring and detailed with full explanation on her procedures. Right after my first session, as explained by Aazeen, my body felt really tired and muscles were a bit sore, followed by sensations similar to vertigo. However there was significant improvement on the condition of my muscles. Fast forward to my third session now and the tightness in my Psoas has almost completely disappeared. My sessions with Aazeen has been really good and I would highly recommend her and the Bowen technique. There is a certificate with her name on it from BowTech (again, google this and there is a history behind it).
Thanks Victorread less - 11/29/2019

The pain only disappeared for a while but surprisingly after the 2nd session with Aazeen who is very knowledgeable and professional, I must say MBT really know what they doing. They tackle the problem from the root cause and not just giving me temporary relief. Looking forward to the coming sessions, Btw, the charges are very reasonable, easy to find, ample parking for cars.

Was sceptical of Bowen’s claims and online reviews for an effective therapy, but was pleasantly surprised when after just the 1st treatment with therapist Ili (Glomac), I was feeling SO much better and pain significantly reduced almost immediately. All the staff are so friendly and they don”t pressure you into buying expensive packages unlike many other treatment centres. Treatment may sound expensive, but well worth the cost as it has been so effective in reducing my pain and discomfort. My therapist Ila is great, her explanations to the source of pain and treatment were easy to understand with the use of diagrams. Thank you Ili and Bowen.read less - 9/19/2019

I came in after suffering 3 slipped discs with herniation. I was suffering for over 2 weeks while trying my Chiropractor and acupuncture. Those helped but did not solve the issues. After my MRI showed the herniation of the discs I decided to give My Bowen Therapy a try and wow, what a difference it has been! After the 1st therapy I could rest finally and after the 3rd therapy I could start exercising again. What a relief! Then suddenly I got into a car accident where my neck was jammed and pinched where I could barely look to the left and straighten my neck. My Therapist Siti was so amazing helping with my lower back that I went to see her. She once again was amazing. and relieved the pain. If you're suffering from any discomfort I highly recommend going to see them. I see why they get the near perfect reviews. Thank you to all the wonderful staff and my Therapist Siti!read less - 8/28/2019

Her gifted hand had significantly relieved me from the severe tightness and pain from my back on my first treatment. I am looking forward for my other parts to be treated and relieved soon. Prolonged sitting, bad posture, stress and lacking of sleep for my thesis plus previous injury on my spine had brought me sciatica pain for 4 months. I really appreciate Lorna's tenderness towards her patient and her gifted hand & skill. Other Bowen therapist like Hanan and Hafiy mentored by Lorna, are as pleasant as her. I am blessed to find this hidden treasure and looking forward for my upcoming treatment with Lorna soon.read less - 8/22/2019
