Canine Bowen is a soft-tissue remedial technique involving ‘light-touch’ moves of fingers or thumbs over muscle, ligament, tendon and/or fascia at specific points of the dog’s body. The work is very subtle and involves no hard or prolonged pressure. It offers dogs a gentle, non-invasive and effective hands-on technique that aims to promote healing, pain-relief and body/energy rebalancing.
Canine Bowen is a holistic technique. By “holistic” we mean that it “treats the body as a whole, without referral to named disease”. I do not treat the veterinary-diagnosed disease or condition per se, but treat the dog, as I see it, on the day.
Canine Bowen is not a substitute/replacement for normal veterinary care, but rather is complementary to it.
Why should my dog have Bowen?
Canine Bowen aims to promote and support the body’s own powers of self-healing and has been offered for many years to support dogs with problems in the following areas:
My aim is to facilitate the channelling of the dog’s own resources so that it can determine how to heal itself. In this respect, therefore, Canine Bowen can be almost all-embracing in its coverage. Although generally regarded as ‘remedial’, Canine Bowen can also be used to good effect as a maintenance and a prevention technique, helping to keep the body in optimum balance. To this end, it may be very beneficial for active, hard-working dogs or dogs used for competitions in obedience, agility, or trialling.
Common conditions which are often presented at Canine Bowen sessions include:
Canine Bowen does not ‘treat conditions’. Through holistically working with the body and helping the dog’s own healing resources it aims to support dogs with such conditions through the rebalancing/optimising effects both locally and elsewhere in its body, which may help to improve its quality of life.
I DO NOT:
I will only offer Canine Bowen in collaboration with the dog’s vet and only after receiving confirmation that the owner is working directly with their veterinary practice in matters concerning their dog’s current health.
Canine Bowen is not a substitute/replacement for normal veterinary care, but rather is complementary to it.
Please call me if you would like to discuss your dog’s health needs and how Canine Bowen may be of benefit.
