Background

I began my health journey in my late teens while looking for ways to overcome chronic childhood illnesses. This journey led me into massage, stretching, breath work, pressure points, diet and nutrition. As I followed this approach my health improved and I could see a positive future for myself. While working most of my adult life across a variety of industries I continued to learn about health and perform massage as a side line for family, friends and colleagues.

Finding Bowen
Two separate acute injuries 10 years apart introduced me to the incredible healing power of Bowen Therapy.

The first experience started with having to lift our family dog into the car after she was bitten by a snake on a camping trip then drive four hours to a vet. As I picked up the dog I felt my back go out and by the end of the 4 hour drive I could hardly move. This led to several months of pain, stiffness and being locked up from my knees to my armpits. Getting in and out of the car was the worst thing. I tried massage, physio, chiro, heat, stretching, everything, with minimal improvement. I was recommended to see a Bowen Therapist and after the first treatment I felt considerably improved and within a few days my back was nearly completely better.
​
My second experience occurred after I had a fall and fractured the socket of my shoulder blade (where the arm attaches). While the break was healing my arm was immobilized and this led to a condition called frozen shoulder where your arm is basically stuck by your side with very little movement. The muscles lock up to protect the bones while they heal. A physiotherapist gave me exercises and stretching which I followed for a month with no improvement. I went to a Bowen Therapist near my work and asked if he could help frozen shoulder. He treated me and I regained about 80% of full movement straight away. I was sold on Bowen Therapy.

These two experiences have inspired me to study Bowen therapy so I can share this wonderful form of therapy and help you experience its life changing benefits.

My commitment to you
My commitment is to work with you to resolve your health issues and achieve your health goals. Bowen is an amazing therapy but is not a magic cure for everything. Some problems, particularly acute issues such as muscle strain, will resolve very quickly, even with just one treatment, others will require ongoing or regular treatment. If we are not getting the right results or making suitable progress then I will discuss with you about other treatments or therapists that may be more suitable..
