Duration
The average session time is one hour, however once the basics have been completed, it can vary from as little as 15 minutes depending on what procedure will be used.
The average number of sessions required is three. This is not a sales gimmick but Bowen Therapy works in layers/cumulative effect with the first session usually balancing and setting up the body for future targeted treatment.
What to wear
It is best performed on skin, however you can wear loose clothing if prefered. You will be fully draped by towels at all times.
Loose shorts are best.
Aftercare
Following a session, we ask that you follow three rules of ‘The 3Ws’, all related to ensuring the messages and signals given to the body in a treatment are enhanced:
1- Walk. Move around every half an hour on day of session
2- Water. Increase your water intake over next three days
3- Wait. Give your body a minimum of three days to see results/improvement. Sometimes it takes a full week.
Also on the day of treatment it is best to avoid
– extreme hot or cold- eg showers, ice
– alcohol
– long drives….or at least ensure regular breaks
