In line with Cup Day, I thought I would share this bowen fun fact.
Bowen therapy was first adapted for horses by Alison Goward in 1989. A senior instructor with the Bowen Therapy Academy of Australia, Alison began exploring how the gentle human technique could be applied to equine anatomy.
By 1990, she’d developed and officially named this specialized approach the Equine Muscle Release Technique (EMRT), a version of Bowen therapy designed specifically for horses, recognising the unique structure and needs of their bodies.
