A pilot study of fascia Bowen therapy for 8-11 year-old boys with developmental coordination disorder
2019, Journal of Bodywork and Movement TherapiesCitation Excerpt :Results further showed a reduction in stress levels, an improvement in wellbeing and quality of life, including a better ability to sleep and increased energy levels. Other studies of Bowen therapy have shown similar improvements in muscle flexibility and movement, as well as additional areas such as quality of life (Carter, 2001, 2002; Dicker, 2005; Marr et al., 2008). While a handful of studies have looked at the effectiveness of The Bowen technique related to the symptoms of specific conditions, no research to date has specifically evaluated the efficacy of fascia Bowen therapy for improving general muscular functioning, as well as psychological and social well-being.
The acute effect of Bowen therapy on pressure pain thresholds and postural sway in healthy subjects
2017, Journal of Bodywork and Movement TherapiesCitation Excerpt :The cross-fiber procedure is called the Bowen movement and is considered the active principle of Bowen Therapy. The Bowen movements are applied at specific body regions in precise sequences, separated by a 2 minute rest and aims to induce smooth fascial stretching (Black and Murray, 2005; Carter, 2002a,b; Duncan et al., 2011; Marr et al., 2011; Whitaker et al., 1997; Baker, 2013). The Bowen Therapy was developed in the 50's by Tom Bowen in Australia (Chaitow and Baker, 2014).
The effects of the Bowen technique on hamstring flexibility over time: A randomised controlled trial
2011, Journal of Bodywork and Movement TherapiesCitation Excerpt :Each treatment programme is personalised and determined following assessment. Reports following treatment have included improvements in; pain, range of motion (ROM), oedema, heart rate, respiration, injury rates and functional recovery (Whittaker et al., 1997; Kinnear and Baker, 1999; Carter, 2002; Esson and Godfrey, 2002; Rattray, 2002; Rattray and Godfrey, 2002; Baker, 2008; Godfrey, 2008; James, 2008). Despite a growing body of evidence, there is a paucity of quantitative research to support such claims.
