Understand the role of the Autonomic Nervous System, Stress and the Bowen Technique

The role of stress at the cell level...

In this Module we cover basics in the ANS, the impact of stress and how Bowen Therapy plays a pivotal role here...and why.

The lessons include video, text, quizzes and pdfs.

What you will learn in Module 3

Autonomic Nervous System, Stress and Bowen

The autonomic nervous system does practically everything.

It is the CEO of the organism. Bowen Therapy's effect on it is profound. Wonder why?

In this mini-course we learn about three important aspects of fascia's interaction with the nervous system, and how Bowen Therapy fits in with this. The 3 topics are: The autonomic nervous system, stress, and fascia + myofibroblasts.

Bowen Therapy does more than 'just' relax the patient.

Module 3 jumps straight into the potency (why and how) of Bowen Therapy for the ANS. We take a look at each element to 'join the dots', including the impact of stress on fascia and how the ANS is involved. Here are some questions we delve into.

  • How does the Bowen 'touch' influence the ANS?

  • How are the connective tissue cells involved in stress?

  • What is the ANS–stress feedback loop?

  • What causes fascia to be rigid?

  • What does pH balance have to do with Bowen and stress?

  • Finally: Do we want to add depth and meaning to our work

Learn the A,B,C's of the Autonomic Nervous system, fascial rigidity and stress, all-in-one.

We unravel the power of Bowen for the ANS and much more...

In this Module, we begin with learning the essentials of the Nervous System, and then delve into the therapeutic implications of soft tissue work on the ANS - specifically with Bowen Therapy; the impact of stress (loading) on tissues, pH levels, overall health, and of course, we learn more about fascia rigidity down to the cellular level.

Benefits of this Module

  • Understand

    It's one thing to read about the nervous system, yet a totally new learning experience to learn about the autonomic nervous system in relation to the Bowen Technique! Similarly, understanding the relationship between the ANS, stress, rigidity and Bowen.

  • Transfer into practice

    Your depth of knowledge and understanding will be transferred into your clinical practice. When you know what is occurring beneath your hands, and to the entire body, this wisdom goes far beyond your current work–rather, it is now applied to any new therapeutic skill.
