Bowen Therapy in India
Mumbai born Farida Irani lives in Sydney, Australia where she runs a busy complementary medicine, natural therapies clinic called Subtle Energies with her daughter Khursheed. They both visit India on a regular basis, as India is their second home, and they love to give of their time and expertise to their people.
They have been treating people voluntarily in Mumbai during their visits for several years, and now their team of dedicated practitioners do voluntary works regularly at the Happy Home and School for the Blind, the NGO Manav Foundation for the mentally handicapped, and at the Cusrow Baug Leagues and Sports Club. The Delhi practitioners also do charitable work at a hospital. In Pune, Bowen is being done at the Military hospital in Kirkee, as a service to the disabled in the army.
All the practitioners also run their own busy practices in Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai, Jalna, Hyderabad. Farida’s dream and passion was to establish this unique modality and science in India in its true and pure format so that Indians from all walks of life could avail of it.
Bowen Therapy in Taiwan
Farida through promotion of her course on Ayurveda aromatherapy to Sunson college, she inspired founders, Shu yen, and her nieces Felicity and Fanny to learn Bowen. They started their journey enthusiastically and with great determination in 2007.
The first batch of Taiwanese practitioners besides Shu yen and Felicity graduated in 2012. Shuyen’s older sister Mai was one of the graduates and her other older sister Dachi and brother are also on their way to becoming Bowen practitioners. More students are joining in and we have a very authentic Bowen group actively involved in Taiwan through Farida totally supported by Ossie Renstch.
The combination of these amazing oils give this blend a synergy which is gentle, warming, rejuvenating and relieving, thereby having a profound effect on the body, mind and soul. Most of these oils have an anti-inflammatory and an analgesic effect and again the synergy of the combination of these oils gives us the optimum result in relieving pain and inflammation as well as relief from congestion. Bowtech Ease was specially formulated by Subtle Energies for the Therapy Academy of Australia to compliment Bowtech work as a substitute to Iodex.
Bowen addresses the body’s Intelligence and helps in bringing about a balance or equilibrium on all levels, physical, mental and emotional. The Bowtech ease Ayurveda Aromatherapy blend is based on the same principles and has been found to be very effective as it works in harmony with Bowen Therapy.
