BOWTECH PAPERBACK
THE BOOK IS A LITTLE DISSAPOINTING AS IT IS QUITE BASIC AND NOT VERY IMFORMATIVE. ALTHOUGH OTHER BOOKS THAT I HAD FOUND ON THE SAME TOPIC WERE MORE GEARED TO THE STUDENT OR PRACTIONER, WHILST I WAS SEARCHING FOR INFORMATION TO HELP ME AS A PATIENT TO SEE IF THE TECHNIQUE WAS SUITABLE FOR MY NEEDS.

BOWTECH - The original BowenTechnique
This slim, insubstantial book reads very like a sales brochure, with very little practical information. No doubt the author does not want to let you know how to do it, but rather to get you to enrol on an expensive course.In addition, I found some of the theorising rather airy-fairy. Save your money to put towards a course.

it looks more like an advertising teaser and is not giving useful information ...
I am learning Bowen. This book is theoretical and that is why I am giving it one star. However true to the bowtech mentality, it looks more like an advertising teaser and is not giving useful information for anyone practising or wanting to practice. The size of the book is small, which was not expected, and the quality of the paper inside is gray, and cheap looking. A big disapointment

Misleading and not helpful
If you don't have a very knowledgeable understanding of the human body this book will not make sense to you. The book claims that you can "Find numerous illustrations and detailed step-by-step instructions". There isn't a detailed picture showing where or in which direction to perform the moves. The step by step instructions also leave much room for mistake and bad interpretation. There is alot of information regarding the history and general information about Bowen I would only buy this book if that's what you are interested in.

Powerful tool!
Such a powerful tool! This book helped my practice and my own knowledge so much in the field of bowenwork. I have read it repeatedly and gone back to it as a resource time and time again. If you are a bowenwork practitioner this book is a must have and if you aren't this book will definitely turn you on to this modality!

a good introduction
This little book covers all the bases. It gives a very nice history of the art of the Bowen Technique, discusses what it's good for, has some theory on how it works, and finally gives practical instructions for the layperson on how to do it himself. The language is clear and accessible. There are very clear b&w diagrams and photographs, and with some reading one could figure out how to do a decent treatment with this. Also, the anecdotes in the back of how people used the technique in their lives for healing gives one new ideas and inspiration. Overall, it's just a super little book for the beginner. What needs work is the editing. This book has multiple misspellings and punctuation errors, which are distracting. If you're going to put this much time and effort into writing a book, then you should get translators and editors who know how to use a comma. I was especially intrigued by the anecdote of the male "colleague who had been suffering from tendovaginitis on his right forearm for two weeks" (p. 85). Sounds painful. And hideous. That poor man!If you can read the book and not be bothered by the idiotic typos, misspellings and bad punctuation, you'll find that it's actually a very useful book that's sure to win your heart.
