Bowen Therapy looks at the whole person—not just the symptoms. By gently supporting the body’s natural healing ability, it helps ease physical tension, calm the nervous system, and restore emotional balance. It’s a deeply relaxing way to bring the body and mind back into harmony.
What Is Holistic Health?
Holistic health is an approach that considers the entire person—body, mind, and spirit—when addressing wellness. Rather than focusing only on individual symptoms or diagnoses, holistic care aims to uncover and support the underlying causes of imbalance. This may include lifestyle factors, stress, emotional patterns, or physical tension.
How Bowen Therapy Fits into a Holistic Approach
Bowen Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive modality that encourages the body’s self-healing abilities. Subtle rolling movements over muscles, fascia, and connective tissue trigger responses in the nervous system, helping to reset patterns of tension and dysfunction.
Bowen works with, not against, the body. Sessions are tailored to what your body needs in the moment—whether that’s pain relief, emotional calm, or support with a hormonal or digestive issue.
The Mind-Body Connection
Stress, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm can all show up as physical symptoms in the body. Tight muscles, shallow breathing, digestive discomfort, headaches, or poor sleep are common signs of nervous system imbalance. Bowen Therapy helps to calm this stress response, promoting relaxation and bringing the body back to a more balanced, parasympathetic state (also known as "rest and repair").
Many clients find that Bowen not only helps with physical symptoms but also leaves them feeling lighter, clearer, and more emotionally grounded.

Headaches and migraines
Stress and anxiety
Hormonal imbalances (e.g. menopause, PMT, fertility)

Supporting Your Unique Journey
No two people are the same, and no two Bowen sessions are either. At Bowen Therapy with Teena, each session is calm, respectful, and tailored to your unique needs—whether you're looking for pain relief, stress support, or simply time to deeply rest and reset.
By working holistically, Bowen Therapy can help you feel more connected, more balanced, and more in tune with your body’s natural rhythm.
