Bowen muscle therapy with Horses workshop November 2009
When I’m explaining to people about Bowen muscle therapy, I often describe it as the best muscular-skeletal work in the world.
- It relieves muscle spasm, bringing muscles, tendons and ligaments into balance.
- It balances the muscles in such a powerful way that the muscles themselves pull the bones back into place.
- It dumps excess lactic acid from performance horses (although please always warm them down properly as well!)
- It has a wonderful positive effect on the underlying organs of the horse, such as lungs, stomach, kidneys, liver, intestines.
- It is very gentle, very non-invasive and very relaxing for the horse.
- It can relieve the pain of colic almost instantly.
- It can increase the lung capacity of a horse significantly.
- It is a beneficial addition to a program to eliminate the problem of a horse who is tying up.
- On many, many occasions I have seen a horse’s stride improve up to 8 inches of extra length with every step.
- The vibratory nature of the Bowen move promotes healing on many levels, whether for injury, illness or simply for the best performance possible.
- And it increases your horse’s enjoyment of life.
And when you use the pendulum to decide which Bowen move is going to be most effective and in what order to do them in – and then combine that with learning how to hear horses and develop your overall skills as a “healer”, then you have a very powerful method of healing.
So, that’s what this course in November teaches. 3 days of learning how to do the Bowen muscle therapy “moves”, learning how to use a pendulum, experiencing how you hear horses, and learning how to combine all of that to be the best “healer” for your horse that you can be.
