What Happens after a Bowen Treatment?
It is very gentle treatment but the results can be very profound, especially when integrated into one’s lifestyle choices. For at least five days after a treatment Bowen is continuing to work on the body. Put another way, when you have a session of Bowen, be it for 15 minutes or one hour, the processing delivered into the nerves and cells will continue to respond for at least five days, tweaking and adjusting that which requires it, even when you are sleeping. It is for that reason that it is advised not to partake in other treatments (chiropractic, massage, physical therapy, energy healing etc) for at least five days after Bowenwork. The five day wait period allows the body to fully respond and process the Bowen “download”.
