Bowen Therapy for newborns and babies

Annemarie from Holistic Health Taranaki

Bowen Therapy is safe for babies as young as a few days or weeks. The non-invasive, super gentle, and fairly quick body treatment, is easily accepted by your little one.

"Baby Bowen" focusses on the fascia (the connective tissue in the body) and can influence many issues positively:

✔For when your baby is not thriving as you know it should.
✔For when they appear to be uncomfortable
✔For when they don’t want to be touched in certain areas (head, neck or hips)
✔For when they struggle with reflux, spilling or vomiting
✔For when they seem to be unable to settle easily


Some need only one session, some may need a few.
If you feel your baby is struggling, Bowen might be an option to try. Feel free to reach out to discuss their specific issue(s) or to book.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
