Bowen Therapy works with the fascia — the connective tissue that wraps around every muscle, bone, organ, and nerve in the body. Using a series of gentle, cross-fibre moves in a specific sequence, the fascia is encouraged to release its tension. This allows tight or ‘glued’ areas to soften and rehydrate, which is why you may feel extra thirsty or need to urinate afterward — it’s all part of the healing process.

When an area of the body is out of balance, the fascia can become sticky or restricted. The body often compensates by offloading stress elsewhere. Within 24 hours (for acute issues) or up to a week for more chronic conditions, the areas treated begin activating the body’s natural healing response, helping it to unwind and release tension.

Trauma, especially when muscles are in spasm, can confuse the body — neural pathways get disrupted, and natural movement patterns are forgotten. It’s not uncommon for old pains or sensations to resurface midweek. This is simply part of the realignment process. Even though the treatment is subtle, the after-effects can be powerful. As the body unravels, those old aches are signs that deeper healing is occurring.

Since fascia surrounds every system in the body, Bowen Therapy reaches deep. The second session is often the most noticeable — typically taking only 24 hours to create visible shifts. A third treatment tends to be even more profound, with the body responding faster and the client feeling more vibrant and free in their movement.

Treatment Timing

Bowen sessions are generally spaced 7–10 days apart.
This gives the body time to process and integrate the changes — what we call “cooking time.”  These intervals also help us track how pain shifts in the body and identify where the original issue began.

A Blended Approach

While Bowen Therapy is the foundation of our work, we also integrate other modalities such as Ortho-Bionomy (also known as Contact Care), Craniosacral work, and other subtle techniques to support your animal’s recovery.

In some cases, we may use therapeutic tools like:

• Bioptron light therapy

• Zapper machine

• Magnetic blankets

• Herbal, homeopathic, and tissue salt remedies

For topical support, we use natural products like Fixt Cream or the pet-friendly Rapid Ease, along with other herbal blends.
