For effective and affordable relief from pain

The Bowen Technique
The Bowen Technique was originally developed in the 1950s by Australian Tom Bowen, who believed that the body has the ability to heal itself. Bowen therapists use only their thumbs and fingers to make gentle rolling movements over muscles, tendons and ligaments at precise points to trigger the body's own healing systems.
Unique in the field of bodywork, The Bowen Technique is a very effective therapy, and many people are initially surprised at how such a gentle therapy can generate such remarkable results. It is the precision of the Bowen moves that ensure the impulses sent to the brain stimulate it to reset and heal itself.
The Bowen Technique is completely safe and appropriate for everyone - from newborns to the very elderly and frail. Most often, surprisingly few sessions are needed to successfully treat complaints, even if they are chronic or long-standing.
Professional and amateur athletes, dancers, musicians - in fact, anyone who is using subjecting their body to strain - are using the Bowen Technique because it can increase flexibility, reduce muscle pain, alleviate fatigue and improve performance.
Many acute and chronic conditions respond favourably to the Bowen Technique.
Bowen Sports Therapy
After several years of professional-level use in Australia, increasing numbers of sportsmen & women in the UK are turning to the Bowen Technique to treat acute injuries and relieve persistent/chronic conditions. The Bowen Technique is now being used at many sports clubs in the UK, including some Premiership rugby and football clubs.
Why? Because the Bowen Technique can be instrumental in improving player fitness, accelerating recovery and preventing injuries - all of which can positively effect success on the pitch, track, pool, court - in any sports arena. And in the case of an acute injury such as a sprain or strain, the immediate application of Bowen can put an athlete straight back in the game.
Bowen can bypass traumatic reactions like swelling, inflammation and immobilization. Using Bowen immediately after an injury can interrupt this trauma cycle completely, giving the athlete with a much faster recovery and little or no down-time after the injury. The healing process will still be accelerated even if injuries are treated some time after they happen.
That is why sports clubs, teams and individuals across Norfolk use The Bowen Centre for treating - and just as importantly, preventing - sports injuries. The Bowen Centre has a proven track record in reducing the recurrence of chronic sports injuries - particularly hamstring & groin strains, shin splints, tennis & golfer's elbow, ankle sprains and lower back problems, as well as successfully treating fresh/acute injuries.
Using sport-specific techniques that are further refined to each individual’s needs, my focus is not just on the area of injury, but also on a fundamental balancing of the body, establishing core stability and maintaining the kinetic muscle chains that are vital to effective performance and remaining injury-free in the long-term.
