Bowen Therapy, the gentle fascia release technique
Bowen Therapy for newborns, babies and young children facilitates fascia release and can support them after a traumatic pregnancy, birth, or first weeks of life.
It can be helpful in the following situations:
Discomfort, unsettled, crying/screaming a lot, vomiting/spilling, difficulty latching on, constipation or digestive upsets such as cramping, bloating or wind pain.
A Bowen session for your baby is very gentle, quick, and non-invasive. The gentle and purposeful moves can be performed through a thin layer of clothing and are usually tolerated very well. There is no manipulation involved.
