Why does it keep coming back?

Recurring neck & shoulder tension
You’ve had a massage.
Your shoulders felt amazing.
Then a few days later… that familiar tightness crept straight back.
Sometimes the tight muscle isn’t the whole story.
If your body is compensating for an imbalance elsewhere, certain muscles may continually work harder to keep you upright and moving.
That’s why when someone comes to me with recurring neck or shoulder tension, I don’t just look at the sore spot.
With Bowen Therapy, I assess the body as a whole, including symmetry, movement and areas that may be contributing to the pattern.
Sometimes where you feel the pain is only one piece of the puzzle.

WHAT IF THE TIGHT MUSCLE ISN’T ACTUALLY THE PROBLEM?

When a muscle constantly feels tight, our first thought is usually that it needs to be stretched, massaged or released.
But sometimes that muscle may be working harder because the body is compensating for an imbalance elsewhere.
This is why I look at symmetry and the whole body, not just the area that hurts.

During an assessment, I look at things such as:
- Pelvic symmetry
- Shoulder height
- Posture and how the body is holding itself
- Areas of muscular tension and restriction
- Patterns that may be contributing to compensation

An imbalance in one area can influence how the body moves and loads elsewhere, potentially creating ongoing tension as muscles work harder to compensate.
The assessment helps guide the Bowen treatment, so rather than simply chasing the tight or painful muscle, we can look at what may be contributing to it in the first place.
Sometimes the muscle that’s screaming the loudest is simply the one doing the most compensating.

Headaches or migraines getting you down?
Sometimes the area where you feel the pain isn’t necessarily where the tension is coming from.
The body is connected, and tension or imbalance through areas such as the pelvis, spine, shoulders and neck may contribute to the bigger picture.
This is why I don’t just focus on the head or neck. Bowen Therapy takes a whole-body approach, using precise moves to address areas of tension, improve balance and support the nervous system.
With the assessment techniques I’ve recently learnt around symmetry, I’m looking even more closely at how different areas of the body may be influencing each other.
If headaches or migraines are becoming a regular part of your life, Bowen Therapy is worth exploring.

When the pain travels beyond your back

Sciatica can cause pain that starts in the lower back or buttock and travels down the leg, sometimes with tingling, numbness or weakness.
Bowen Therapy takes a whole body approach, working through areas such as the lower back, pelvis, glutes and legs to help reduce muscular tension and improve movement and function.
Sometimes where you feel the pain isn’t where the problem started.
If you’re struggling with ongoing sciatic pain, Bowen Therapy is worth trying.

As most of you know, I’ve been following Graham Pennington’s work for quite a while, and last weekend I finally had the opportunity to attend his Importance of Symmetry workshop and it was amazing!
Working with Graham and Kate introduced me to a completely different way of assessing the body.
Rather than simply focusing on where the pain is, this approach looks at the body as a whole, assessing symmetry, muscle tension and imbalance to help identify areas that may be contributing to dysfunction.
One of the things I loved most was being able to see and feel the changes happening in the body throughout treatment.
The workshop also explored the significance of meridians in Bowen Therapy and how symmetry can be used as a guide to create a more individualised treatment.
I’m really excited to bring what I’ve learnt back to Rewind Bowen Therapy.
For me, continuing to learn means having more tools to understand what may be happening in each client’s body, especially when the area causing the problem isn’t necessarily the area where they’re feeling the pain.

How Bowen Therapy helps my client with her IVF journey

I was incredibly touched to see this shared in our local community group.
Fertility and IVF can be such an emotional and physically demanding journey, so it means a lot knowing that Bowen Therapy provided this client with a space where she could slow down, relax and feel supported through the process.

Finding Bowen therapy was a true turning point for my own IVF journey, and I wanted to share it in case it helps anyone else in our community.
Going through this process is deeply demanding on both the body and the mind, and for me, Bowen therapy became so much more than just a way to relax. It gave me a complete nervous system reset, shifting my body out of "fight or flight" mode during the heaviest phases of treatment, while helping increase blood flow to the pelvic region to support healthy organ function, ovulation, and implantation. It also gently released all the physical tightness and holding patterns that build up from hormones and clinical procedures, giving me a safe sanctuary to feel grounded when everything felt so out of my control.

Thank you for trusting me to be a small part of such a personal journey and for allowing you experience to be shared.

Today I had a few wins in the clinic that really made my day.
From a client with a hip and leg that would lock up while walking, to clients dealing with chronic shoulder, arm and back pain, these are often people who come to me after trying different therapies and tell me "I've just learnt to live with the pain."
And strangely enough, I love hearing that.
Not because I want anyone living in pain, but because I love a challenge. It makes me think, okay… let's see what we can change.
Bowen Therapy is still not very well known, so quite often I'm one of the last things people try rather than the first.
That's why it's so rewarding when someone who has been struggling for months or even years notices a change they weren't expecting. Less pain, easier movement, better function, or being able to do something their body simply wasn't letting them do before.
Sometimes they're genuinely shocked by the difference.
Those are the moments that make me love what I do.
If you've reached the point where you've been told there's nothing more to try, or you've simply accepted that you need to "live with it" maybe you haven't tried everything yet.

Every little win means the world.

One of the most rewarding parts of what I do is seeing families find some relief and hearing how much of a difference bowen treatments has made for them.

I'm so grateful this beautiful mum trusted me to support her little one and has kindly given me permission to share her experience.

"I can't thank you enough for all your help with my baby. When we came to you, I was desperate to find him some relief and make what I felt was silent reflux more comfortable for him.

Throughout our sessions, you brought a calm presence and took the time to listen to me and get to know my baby. You always explained the benefits of each move and checked in with us between sessions. I appreciate all the extra research you did to ensure you could do everything to help.

Since his sessions he is so much calmer and more settled. His reflux symptoms are almost non-existent. I'm so thankful for all your help!"

Thank you so much for your kind words. It has been such a privilege to be part of your little one's journey.
