Bowen Therapy for Newborns and Babies

Annemarie from Holistic Health Taranaki

Bowen Therapy for newborns, babies and young children can support them after a traumatic birth or during difficult first weeks/months of life.

It can be helpful in the following situations:
- Discomfort
- Unsettled
- Crying/screaming a lot
- Vomiting or spilling
- Difficulty latching on
- Tummy pain, such as cramp, bloating, wind pain.
- Crying when being put in the car seat.

A Bowen session for your baby is quick, non-invasive and very gentle. There is no manipulation involved.
If you feel your child is just not happy and comfortable, try Bowen Therapy for them. Just a few sessions often can greatly improve their wellness.
