Bowen Therapy for injuries? Of course.

Annemarie from Holistic Health Taranaki

I love results like these!
The fascia release done with Bowen Therapy can be so effective after injuries.
It seems to reduce the recovery time, it seems to reduce the pain, and it gets people back at work, doing their best, in very little time.

Need some support with an old or recent injury yourself? Reach out to discuss your situation, or book in at a time that suits.
