Equine Bowen Therapy

A treatment for horses that involves 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 animal's body.

The treatment is both gentle and subtle, with no hard or prolonged pressure. It offers the animal a non-invasive and effective hands-on technique that aims to promote healing, pain-relief and body/energy rebalancing.

Equine Bowen Aims to help the horse by communicating with the nervous system to achieve neuromuscular re-patterning.

  • Promotes Healing and Pain Relief

    Bowen can assist with many issues

    examples are:

    Cold or sore back

    Disunited gait, irregular action, falling in on left or right rein.

    Muscle atrophy or uneven muscle development.

    Stiffness and inability to bend.

    Resistance to working correctly ‘through’ from behind

    Sluggish lymphatic system or weakened immune system.

    Uncharacteristic change of temperament or deterioration of performance.

  • Assists Movement Restrictions & Muscle Soreness

    It benefits horses of all ages, breeds and disciplines.

    Horses have an amazing ability to create compensation patterns to work around restrictions or problems in there bodies - Often creating assymetries in the body. This creates uneveness or difficulties in their training as physically they cannot do what we are requesting, especially under saddle.

    Bowen restores the bodies balance by triggering it to undergo cellular repair via the fascial release and rehydration. This also helps create new neuromuscular patterns. - often encouraging a more symmetrical body and ease of movement.
