Testimonials
Bowen Therapy is like nothing I have ever tried before (and I have tried a lot). It is the most gentle and yet the most effective treatment I have received. I am not exaggerating when I say I walk out of every session feeling like I have had a body transplant. In addition to this I sleep so much better than I ever have and that in itself has had a major impact on me.
I.W. Therapist: Linda Moore
I cannot recommend Bowen Therapy highly enough. After two sessions the pain had gone completely. Even after the first one (although actually the symptoms took a while to improve), I felt so much more positive mentally. Anyone who suffers from a bad back will know it gets you down after a while! I tell everyone about the Bowen Therapy and how much it has helped me.
K.E. Therapist: Jo Austen
The pain in my arm, shoulder and neck has now completely gone. I am able to go about my everyday tasks now as normal. This was after having 3 sessions of Bowen Technique. I intend on having Bowen Therapy sessions every 3 months as a maintenance for my body.
S.H. Therapist: Judith Kilgallon

Bowen Therapy / Bowen Technique is a drug-free, non-invasive, hands-on remedial therapy which can be administered through light clothing, with the client sitting, standing or lying. It has a remarkable record of success with clients affected by an astonishingly wide range of problems, often when nothing else has helped. It helps the body’s systems rebalance and promotes healing. Bowen is suitable for men, women and children of all ages.
It was a serious threat to the career of musician Diamond Dac, when in early 2017 he suffered severe torn rotator cuff injuries which limited his arm and shoulder movements. "With restricted mobility in upper arm and shoulder muscles for over two months and no sign of improvement I went online and found one of the most experienced and qualified Bowen Practitioners in the North of England... I felt like I had been given my life back."
