Treatment Overview
Canine Bowen Therapy | Treatment
Ideally the dog will be treated in there own home in the
surroundings they are comfortable and familiar with.
The owner must be present at all times and it is beneficial to treat the dog in isolation from the
distraction of other dogs they may
live with. It may be necessary to see the dog walked, run gently and turned about on a lead prior to treatment, depending on
the reason for the visit. Consultation time will be required before treatment starts witch will also give the dog time
familiarise
themselves with the therapist and be comfortable with them before the treatment starts.
The treatment itself my last twenty minutes or so depending on the dogs reaction. There are breaks between series of moves where
the dog is left to quietly process the information received through the
Bowen "moves". These breaks are the most important part of the treatment
because it is at this time that the real healing begins. The Canine Bowen Technique is the tool the dog itself will heal given the time and space to do so.
Treatments are given at weekly intervals for approximately three treatments, during which time the
Canine Bowen Technique will continue its work so long as the after care guidelines are adhered to. Your observations are vital to the healing process.
