Jenni Townsend (BTAA ESEBT) is based in Frome and covers Somerset, Wiltshire and Dorset, providing holistic natural therapy treatments.
The Bowen Technique
“I have reduced my intake of medication… I sleep well at night …and have far less pain than I have had for as long as I can remember.”
“I found the sessions very relaxing and enjoyable and they left me with a really enhanced sense of well-being.”
“I feel better, altogether.”
The Bowen Technique is a gentle form of body-work therapy, which supports and enhances your natural self-healing ability. The treatment is appropriate and beneficial for all ages and many conditions, including:
- back pain and sciatica
- neck and shoulder problems (including frozen shoulder)
- painful joints and muscles
- stress and tension symptoms
- repetitive strain injury
- headaches and migraines
- hayfever and asthma
- digestive and bowel problems
- anxiety and panic attacks
A Bowen Technique Treatment
Consisting of a series of gentle, light-touch moves over specific muscles, the Bowen Technique stimulates the subtle energies within your body, initiating a healing response, which prompts your body to rebalance, realign and restore its own level of harmony and well-being.
Recipients of Bowen Therapy often experience an increased sense of well-being:
- helping relaxation
- aiding sleep, and
- helping to relieve every day stress and anxiety
Scar Tissue Release
Scar tissue is formed by the body as a natural healing response when the skin is damaged, lacerated or punctured either by accident, injury or surgical intervention.
The resulting tissue tends to be thick and fibrous, restricting: blood circulation, efficient lymph drainage, and mobility and flexibility, including Range of Motion.
The Bowen scar-tissue release moves encourage a softening of the thickened tissues, enabling improved circulation and lymph drainage, and allowing increased mobility and flexibility.
Clients often find their Bowen treatment very relaxing
The Bowen Technique moves can be applied
through clothing
Equine Bowen Therapy
for horses, equines and large animals
“My horse was much brighter and more energetic. She was also able to lie down and roll (something she had not done for several months).”
“My pony’s stiffness has eased.”
“The positive improvement in his temperament has made him much easier to handle.”
Similar in its essence to the Bowen Technique (for people), Equine Bowen Therapy is a gentle and holistic form of body-work therapy. The specific moves of the Equine Bowen Therapy treatment can be successfully applied to all equines and large animals.
Equine Bowen Therapy empowers the body's natural self-healing ability. It is an appropriate and beneficial healing modality for all ages and many conditions, including;
- 'cold' or sore back / bad back
- muscular stiffness
- lameness or irregular action
- sluggish lymphatic system; filled legs
- digestive or respiratory problems
- behavioural issues
- uncharacteristic change of temperament or deterioration of performance
- supporting the rehabilitation process after accident, operation or illness
An Equine Bowen Therapy Treatment
A treatment consists of a series of gentle moves over specific muscles. The Bowen moves stimulate the subtle energies within the body, and initiate a healing response, which prompts the body to rebalance, realign and restore its own level of harmony and well-being.
This healing process:
- helps to relieve pain and muscular tension, encouraging increased flexibility and suppleness
- helps to strengthen the internal organs and immune system
- promotes energy rebalancing and whole-body wellbeing (physically, mentally and emotionally)
Every Bowen move affects the whole body and the specific area of application
Horses often become very relaxed during their Equine Bowen Therapy treatment
Reiki Healing
“I found the Reiki treatment very restful and relaxing.”
“My knees have been pain-free since my last Reiki treatment.”
Reiki (pronounced Ray Key) is a system of natural healing 'rediscovered' at the end of the 19th century by Dr Mikao Usui. It is a Japanese term which approximately translates to ‘Universal Life Energy’.
Reiki is a simple and gentle process of transferring energy to promote healing. The healing energy works on all levels, helping to relieve the subtle causes of many states of ill health or emotional discomfort, and encouraging balance, harmony and wellbeing to be restored.
A Reiki Treatment
During the treatment you lie, or sit, fully clothed whilst the practitioner places her hands gently on (or slightly off) your body in a series of hand positions.
Many people report a deep sense of peace, relaxation and wellbeing both during and after their Reiki treatment.
Reiki Healing helps to restore balance, harmony and wellbeing
Remaining fully clothed, you may lie or sit during your Reiki Healing treatment
