Many people expect bodywork to be about “doing more.”

More pressure. More intensity. More input.

Bowen Therapy is described differently by practitioners.
Not because less is being done, but because the focus shifts.

From force → to information.
From intensity → to response.
From doing → to observing.

In Bowen Therapy, less is more — and what matters is how closely the practitioner observes the body’s response.

Bowen has procedures and addresses all of these muscles for SIJ, pelvic, hip and lower back pain.

SI Joint: “The Sacroiliac Joint connects the spine to the pelvis. Pain can occur when the joint becomes inflamed, stiff, unstable, or overloaded.

Common causes of SI joint pain include:

Poor posture or pelvic misalignment
Uneven weight distribution stresses the joint.
Pregnancy
Hormonal changes and ligament laxity increase joint mobility.
Trauma or falls
Sudden impact on the hips, buttocks, or lower back.
Disc problems or lumbar spine issues
Conditions like disc bulge can alter movement mechanics and overload the SI joint.
Leg length difference
Causes uneven pelvic loading.
Arthritis
Especially osteoarthritis or inflammatory conditions like ankylosing spondylitis.
Muscle imbalance or weakness
Weak core, glutes, or tight hip muscles reduce pelvic stability.
Prolonged sitting or standing
Repetitive stress irritates the joint.
Heavy lifting or twisting movements
Common in gym injuries or manual work.
Post-surgical changes
Sometimes after spinal fusion surgery.

Typical symptoms:

Pain near one side of lower back or buttock
Pain while standing from sitting
Pain during stair climbing, walking, or turning in bed
Pain radiating to thigh or groin

Management may include physiotherapy, pelvic stabilization exercises, posture correction, manual therapy, activity modification, and sometimes injections depending on severity.”

All in a sessions work using wholistic Bowen moves for TMJ , neck and shoulders complaints.

I saw a client with TMJ problems recently. The jaw muscles were MUCH tighter on one side. I found them compensating for all sorts of neck instability -- all of which I found was being driven by the opposite shoulder. After pointing this out, the client revealed that this all started long ago after a case of frozen shoulder. Bingo!

The frontal sinuses are one of four pairs of paranasal sinuses. They are small, air-filled cavities embedded in the frontal bone (forehead) just above the eyes. Mucus is produced there and they play an important role in fighting infection. Unfortunately, these sinuses get inflamed and clogged pretty readily, creating a lot of pain and pressure. Because of the already poor ability to move mucus out of the sinuses via the choanae, sinus infection symptoms can often persist even after treatment. That's where sinus pumping techniques come into play. In cranial osteopathy, there's a great technique that involves creating a rhythmic motion between the frontal bone and the nasal bones. This motion can help draw the fluid out of the sinuses, allowing it to drain out and into the throat. Clients will often feel the contents running down their throat when they stand up; a sensation that is simultaneous really weird and incredibly satisfying. It's not an easy move to do to one's self, so as a consolation prize, I've included a video on sinus massage to tide you over until you get a chance to find a good cranial practitioner. https://www.rfr.bz/f36def9

Your area of pain doesn't always need something done TO it. Sometimes it needs something done FOR it... somewhere else.
