Download or read book The Gentle Touch for Natural Healing written by Deborah Edward and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-02-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bowen Therapy, devised by the late Thomas Ambrose Bowen in Australia during the 1950s, stands as a remedial technique focusing on the body's musculature and connective tissues. This dynamic system operates on both structural and organic levels through the autonomic nervous system (ANS), effectively addressing both physiological and emotional conditions stemming from acute injuries or chronic health issues. In contrast to conventional hands-on modalities employing manipulative techniques, Bowen Therapy opts for a gentler approach, aiming not to force changes but rather to enable the body to naturally rest and repair itself with minimal external intervention. As such, it complements conventional medical practices, offering a non-invasive method to manage both symptoms and potential causes. Owing to its inherently gentle nature, Bowen Therapy is deemed safe for individuals of all ages and most conditions, including infants, seniors, pregnant women, and athletes. Its widespread application spans health maintenance, illness prevention, and the expedited recovery from injuries or surgical procedures. Notably, it can be administered over light and loose clothing without the need for ointments. Distinguishing itself from other bodywork modalities, Bowen Therapy boasts gentleness, swift efficacy, and minimal intervention as its hallmark features. This holistic approach, distinct from massages or other treatments, has gained recognition worldwide, with approximately 59 countries and regions offering established Bowen Therapy training and practices.

Download or read book Bowen Unravelled written by Julian Baker and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Bowen technique therapists and any bodywork practitioners interested in using a gentle, nonintrusive pain-relief therapy, this book draws on myofascia and connective tissue dissection to explain how the Bowen technique initiates a body-wide signaling mechanism to start the process of healing and restore normal function. With more than 100 full-color images, this useful guide helps manual therapists understand how the Bowen technique can help people with back pain, neck pain, headaches, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, respiratory problems, hay fever, high blood pressure, kidney problems, arthritis, and knee pain. The Bowen technique, named after its originator Tom Bowen, has been growing in popularity since it was first taught in the 1980s. Known for its gentle rolling motions and intentional pauses between moves, the technique has been shown to bring extraordinary pain management results with very little pressure on the part of the therapist. Yet until now, little has been known of the actual workings of this technique. Tom Bowen himself called it simply a "gift from God" and treated thousands of people without trying to understand the processes that drove his results. This book fills in the gap in scientific understanding by explaining in anatomical terms what happens during a Bowen technique treatment. Author Julian Baker shows how traditional anatomy fails to fully explain the complex biomechanical relationships that make up human movement. Each move of the technique is analyzed in depth, with an emphasis on the role of fascia and connective tissue.

Download or read book Stalking Wild Psoas written by Liz Koch and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaving together biology, living systems thinking, and somatic movement, these nine short essays will inspire somatic therapists, bodyworkers, and movement educators Liz Koch, author of Core Awareness and The Psoas Book, seeks to dissolve the objectification of "body" in order to reconceptualize human beings as biologically intelligent, self-organizing, and self-healing. Specifically addressing educators and therapists, she delves into the conceptual framework of core by decolonizing the popular mechanistic thinking of psoas as muscle, inviting the reader on a journey toward reengaging with life's creative processes. The book illuminates the limitations of the predominant paradigm of body and actively explores psoas as a vital, intelligent messenger that links us to an expansive network of profound possibilities. Employing biomorphic and embryonic paradigms, Koch redefines psoas as smart, expressive tissue that is both elemental and universal. Named after her popular exploratory workshops of the same name, Stalking Wild Psoas encourages all readers to nourish integrity and claim self-efficacy as creative and expressive individuals.
