Once again John Wilks has produced a book for reliable information

between traditional medicine and the growing field of complementary
health care. Highly recommended. -- Oswald Rentsch, Director, Bowen

This book draws upon the experience of a broad team of
practitioners to illustrate the value of Bowen therapy for patients
with complex health conditions. It is a rich resource that will
inspire, encourage and guide Bowen therapists of all persuasions.
-- Graham Pennington, author of A Textbook of Bowen Technique
This is a comprehensive book on Bowen therapy, written by
passionate Bowen instructors and practitioners. A must, not only
for Bowen therapists, but for everyone who wants to know more about
Bowen : the scientific community, the general public, women,
athletes, and people who unfortunately are suffering and searching
for a solution. -- Louise Tremblay, iBowen and AIMTC Founder and
Director, Bowen and Niromathe International Instructor
Using the Bowen Technique to Address Complex and Common
Conditions is a book to read and keep handy on your shelf, to
help understand why we do what we do. Think of it as an up-to-date
encyclopedia of structural and organic health, all from a Bowen
perspective. I believe that musing on principles and connections
such as these is the stuff upon which new and more effective
treatments and procedures are founded. -- Gene Dobkin, Director,
usbowen.com, author of A Bowen Home Companion, vol's I and II
This book brings together important information for therapists
using the Bowen Technique. Bowen practitioners will treasure this
book because it provides tips and guidance on how to treat more
complex health problems. John Wilks includes new scientific
findings that will contribute to a better understanding of the
Bowen Technique. I consider this book a must-have for all Bowen
practitioners. -- Manfred Zainzinger, Bowen Instructor, Bowen
Akademie Europa, Austria
