As we are part of a worldwide network of practitioners we are able to draw upon the resources of a large number of very experienced Bowen instructors—many of whom have additional skills and knowledge which they bring from their previous healthcare training into the post-graduate seminars.  See below for courses.

Seminars are run by instructors from the UK, Australia,
