43 years Tom Bowen passed away. I'm sure he would look down and smile to see over 40,000 people practicing his technique.

As every other year some of Tom's personal students have put a tribute in the Geelong Advertiser.

RIP Thomas Ambrose Bowen (1916-1982).

Looking forward to getting back in the clinic tomorrow! Been warming up my fingers 🙂

There are still a few appointments available before I head away on holiday, my last day will be the Tuesday after the Grand Final Weekend, and I will return Thursday 2 weeks later. Will be off to do some boating around the Gippsland Lakes District ☺️

We are after a child (like C) to give a free gift to from the Tom Bowen Legacy Trust Fund. We have up to $3000 to spend to help children with a disability buy something they need to help them in their daily life (eg. wheelchair, etc), or even just would like for leisure (eg. iPad, etc). It has to be something that wouldn't be supplied by the NDIS.

I'm in the Bowen Association Committee and I've got the job to find recipients of gifts and we have had nobody apply yet, so if you get Bowen Therapy and have a disability, or even have a child with a disability get in contact with me and I can send you a form to apply!

The simple act of smiling does more than brighten your face — it sends a powerful signal to your nervous system.

By activating specific muscles, a smile communicates to your body that it’s safe to relax, helping to ease the fight, flight, or freeze response. 😊

Bonus: even if we just pretend to smile, the muscle contraction can still trigger our nervous system to respond as it would if we were really smiling.

Relaxation really can start with a smile!
(And with a visit to your Bowen Therapist!)

New paint job was all finished off a few weeks ago, looking really good.

Big thanks to Daisy & Dad for their help! 😊

It's been awesome getting back into the clinic again in 2025!

Liz has done a great job with the sunflowers again and since starting back yesterday the Bowen is already starting to make them smile 😊

📢 Help us get health fund rebates back for Bowen Therapy!

We need your help!

Can you spare a few minutes to sign a petition and/or send a letter (we've written it for you!) to our Health and Aged Care Minister?

Visit https://www.bowen.org.au/help-us-promote-the-reinstatement-of-private-health-fund-rebates-for-bowen-therapy/.

The Natural Therapy Expert Advisory Review Panel has completed its investigation into reinstating health fund rebates for complementary therapies.

Their report is due to reach Health and Aged Care Minister Mark Butler by the end of the year.

Bowen Therapy is a uniquely Australian modality that supports health, the economy, and our communities.

We’ve sent Minister Butler a letter highlighting Bowen's impact and the need for health fund rebates to support both practitioners and clients.

You can help too!

By sending a letter in support, or simply signing the petition, you can make your voice heard. We’ve made it easy — just click the link below to open a pre-written email.

Together, let’s keep Bowen Therapy thriving in Australia!

I'm closing for Christmas a little earlier this year (last day Monday Dec 9th) because the office will be getting freshly painted, and to allow time for paint odors to clear.

I will be back in clinic Thursday 2nd of Jan 2025, and am looking forward to the new look! 😀

Only 4 weeks left of appointment availability for this year, so if you wanted some Bowen before Xmas book in quick! 🙂
