Description of Idea: We are seeking collaborators and funding to offer an outreach program in India to empower women to reclaim their role as natural healers.
This tremendously cost effective treatment has done wonders as a First line chronic pain alleviation system, and we believe that put in the hands of socially and health minded individuals, this therapy would have far reaching positive consequences.
Our present goal is to help widowed women to reclaim their place in society while sharing with others this tremendous gift of healing.
Most women have not had sufficient opportunity to nourish the healer within and trust their willing hands and big heart. There is little more exciting and rewarding than to see people take back their power and trust in the bodys innate wisdom to heal without drugs, surgery or endless palliation.
We have a team of BowenFirst TM coaches willing to teach this First line chronic pain alleviation system, a gentle, safe, low-tech, and simple technique to people in areas of the world who can benefit their society.
If you are interested in helping people to reboot their body so that they can reboot their life and then reach out and help reboot the world vote for us.
Dr. Manon Bolliger, ND,DHANP, CBHT: I have 2 decades of experience with people who have suffered with pain and at this point I am more convinced than ever that given the right information the human body has the capacity to self heal. In fact, given the right understanding, people can take back ownership of their own healing.
This was my original motivation in studying law and getting my LLB. I wanted to be an advocate for informed choice in health. But I found that there is nothing more powerful than people as a group reclaiming their health. And thus, I went into health.
As a Naturopathic Physician, Specialist in Homeopathy and an advanced practitioner and coach of Bowen Therapy, I have experience in a wide range of therapies that promote healing.
My greatest inspiration however, is the work of Tom Bowen and by creating Bowen College in 2007, I have decided to continue his legacy. His legacy was one of humanitarianism and that of a healer.
Blessed with a conscious and heart centered group of coaches, we offer an excellent program for Bowen as well as creating local outreach programs to help caregivers (Bowen Care and Share) and people who cannot afford treatments.
What has been the most rewarding is to see the transformation of people who had given away their power to heal, take it back and get excited at just how little it takes for the body to make miraculous leaps forward without drugs, surgery or endless treatments. http://www.bowencollege.com

Bowen “Why does it work”
Physiologically: three points for consideration when unraveling the mystery that surrounds Tom Bowen’s amazing discovery that unlocked the code of the body.
The first is: Golgi Tendon Organs: these are proprioceptive recepotors which can be found at the junction of a tendon with a muscle. Their role is to help protect tendons and their associated muscles from damage resulting from excessive tension. Each Golgi tendon organ capsule is penetrated by sensory neurons and when tension is applied to the tendon, they are stimulated, relaying the information to the central nervous system. This is then processed and a motor response is elicited.
Secondly: sensory fibers that terminate in the lower brain stem bring about a far more complex response than the simple spiral reflexes generated from stimulation of sensory fibers terminating in the spinal cord
Thirdly: muscle spindles are delicate proprioceptive receptors in the skeletal muscle fibers. They are enclosed in a connective tissue capsule that is filled with lymph . They also contain sensory fibers which when stretched are stimulated and impulses are sent to the spinal cord at great velocity once again eliciting a motor response.
Bowen moves certainly affect the Golgi tendon organ reflexes and muscle spindles which helps reprogramme tension levels in the body.
