Tom Bowen, an industrial chemist working in Victoria, Australia, between the 1950s and 1970s, devised a program of linked manual maneuvers that together comprise an individual form of therapy. In 1974 he invited osteopath and natural therapist Oswald Rentsch to study and document the method. Following Bowen’s death in 1982, Oswald and Elaine Rentsch have trained people in the technique all over the world.
Elements of Therapy
The method consists of a series of “flicklike” maneuvers (”vibrational” movements) over muscles, tendons, and connective tissues, applied in precise sequence at specific points on the body. After the therapist has administered three or four of these movements, the client is left for between two and ten minutes for the body to “process” them before the next sequence of maneuvers is applied.
