  • I began seeing Theresa for Bowen Therapy April 2021, following ongoing concerns with post concussion symptoms. Within a few weeks I experienced significant improvement and have continued to use her services for ongoing improvements and maintenance.

    My son goes for regular Bowen treatments with Theresa and facial stretching with Justina. It has increased his mobility, speed and performance as an athlete and has kept him injury free and minimal down time. It has been an excellent complement to his regular training and we both highly recommend Best of Health.

  • I am someone who struggles a lot with chronic migraines. I decided that Bowen therapy might be a good fit for me. Upon meeting Theresa for the first appointment she was very pleasant, knowledgeable and cared about getting to the root of the issue. After a few sessions I was already starting to feel consistently better and the frequency... read more of the headaches have gone down quite drastically. It feels like night and day honestly. Very happy with my experience and would recommend to anyone struggling with chronic pain/migraines.

    Mike Teskey Avatar Mike Teskey

    Bowen therapy has been a major part in my life for helping me stay active. Before Bowen I would see the chiropractor once a month for chronic back pain. Since finding Bowen over 3 years ago I haven’t seen a chiropractor once in that time period

Is massage safe for seniors?
Yes. Our therapists are specially trained in senior care and adapt every treatment to each individual’s health conditions, mobility, and comfort level.

That’s very common. We take a gentle, respectful approach and always move at the patient’s comfort level. We also have the option of remaining fully clothed for the treatment.
What if my loved one has limited mobility or prefers to remain clothed?
No problem. Treatments can be provided in a bed, chair, or wheelchair, and many patients remain partially or fully clothed. We always adapt to each patient’s comfort level, mobility, and personal preferences.

Do you offer regular or recurring visits?
