A quiet space for your body to heal.

Bowen Therapy is a gentle, hands-on technique that uses small rolling movements over specific points on the body — across muscle, tendon, and fascia — followed by strategic pauses. It is light pressure, never forceful. Most people describe a session as deeply relaxing; you may find yourself drifting off. The pauses between moves are when your body does the work — processing the input and beginning its own healing response.

Bowen is used for both acute and chronic conditions — back, neck and shoulder pain, headaches and migraines, sciatica, frozen shoulder, jaw tension, knee, ankle and foot issues, hip pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, digestive and bowel issues, respiratory issues, pregnancy support, sporting injuries, the wear-and-tear of physical work, stress and tension, and recovery support. It works with your body, not against it, and can be used safely on newborns through to the elderly.

Many people feel a shift after just one or two sessions. For longer-standing or more complex issues, three to four sessions spaced about a week apart is a common starting point. After your first session I'll give you an honest opinion on what to expect and we'll plan from there. There is no obligation.

Generally no — Bowen can be performed through light, comfortable clothing. Wear something soft and stretchy — loose leggings, loose trousers or shorts, and a light t-shirt are ideal. Avoid jeans, belts, and bulky layers.

Massage typically applies sustained pressure to release muscle tissue. Bowen uses small, precise rolling moves and then pauses — letting your nervous system register the input and respond. It is far gentler than remedial massage but often produces deeper, longer-lasting changes because it works with your body's own self-correcting systems.

We recommend waiting a minimum of five days after a Bowen session before any other bodywork — including massage and MSTR — as it may overload the nervous system and interrupt the Bowen reset. Bowen continues to work in the days after your session, and other hands-on therapies during that window can disrupt the response.

MSTR is a gentle, hands-on technique that works with scars and the surrounding tissue to support mobility, comfort, lymphatic drainage and tissue function. It may be helpful after caesarean births, hysterectomies, abdominal or laparoscopic surgery, breast surgery, joint replacements, tendon or ligament repairs, cosmetic surgery, plantar fasciitis or trauma-related scarring, to reduce pain, increase range of motion or improve appearance. MSTR is booked on its own, not combined with Bowen, and Michelle is a qualified MSTR practitioner.
