Carole has grown up with dogs – mainly Dachshunds and Golden Retrievers – and is now firmly in love with Hungarian Vizsla’s. She lived without a dog only when working in London as an advertising producer in the 1990’s. During this time she satisfied her love of animals by developing a keen interest in horses later becoming involved in Equine and Canine behaviour and training. As a result of this Carole was given a somewhat ‘complicated’ Hungarian Vizsla, who along with her own return from ill health (M.E.) firmly established her obsession with complementary therapies and creating the most positive relationships you can with dogs.
The European Guild of Canine Bowen Therapists (see www.caninebowentechnique.com) was founded by Sally & Ron Askew who developed the adaption of Bowen for use on dogs in the UK from 2001. Bowen therapists and experienced canine professionals Sally & Ron Askew intergrated their finding into their established canine behavioural and rehabilitation work and in 2003 with the collaboration of their veterinarian, designed a professional program of training with an holistic approach, for people wishing to become properly skilled Canine Bowen Technique therapists. The course has been running in the UK since 2004 and the EGCBT Practitioner course in Canine Bowen Technique is currently the only course in Bowen for dogs recognised by both the Bowen Therapy Professional Association (BTPA) and Bowen Association UK.

]]>My clients mostly come with tight, painful muscles or restricted movement, digestive issues, stress and anxiety. Some use their Bowen sessions to help maintain or improve their sporting ability, particularly those competing at veteran level.
Riders and horses can both compensate for each other’s issues, so treating both horse and rider helps optimise the performance of the partnership in their chosen discipline.
I also work with autistic, ADHD and high anxiety children. I worked part-time 2018-2020 at an Alternative Learning Centre for vulnerable/autistic children in Dorset, using coaching and Equine Assisted Learning to help the children improve their social skills, education and emotional resilience. I am currently running a study into how the Bowen Technique may help such children. If you wish to be a part of this study, please contact me.
