 Deb changed my life for the better. There is something very special about the way she can combine Bowen Therapy with Coaching so that the impact is greater than the sum of the parts. I think she is brilliant at both, but when used in combination something magic happens. She taps into the wisdom of the mind and the body, and I always leave feeling amazing. ~Jade

During the earlier part of my adult life, I had a lot of traumatic things happen. Over the years I have talked to many people including Clinical Psychologists when I have been struggling to cope, but no one seemed to really click.When I went to see Deb for the first time, from the moment I was embraced in a warm motherly hug I felt completely at ease and comfortable and by the end of that session I had a sense of “coming home”.Deb has helped me so much by teaching me coping strategies for ongoing grief and anxiety. Ways to build my confidence and truth, teaching me to discover my own strengths, values, and how I contribute to the world.Deb has a holistic approach to wellness through mind and body and the Bowen sessions have helped my body heal along the way.My journey has been life-changing and I am so glad I took that first step, she is my “Guardian Angel”.~Mrs. T

Towards the end of the last school year I made an appointment to take my daughter to see Debs at Soul Decisions for some coaching to help her through a difficult time she was going through at school. She was having issues with a group of girls playing mind games with her and basically making school miserable, her confidence was at an all-time low and just wasn’t her normal bubbly self, she was struggling with the decision of whether to change schools as well.

Debs was fantastic, over a period of three to four sessions she coached my daughter. She showed her how to look at things differently and gave her tools on how to handle herself in uncomfortable situations, she gave her activities to do as homework that slowly built up her confidence.

Teenagers do find it hard to talk to their parents at times and Debs had the strategies where she helped my daughter to come to her own conclusion with how to solve her problems, and I now have a confident daughter who has moved schools, made new friends and hasn’t looked back.I would really recommend Debs at Soul Decisions. Her coaching gives you a different perspective, and clarity on issues in your life that helps you to move forward.~Bernette B.

I had the absolute pleasure of seeing Deb for Life Coaching sessions.  The focus of these sessions was to kick start a program for sports performance, addressing a plateau in reaching greater goals.​Though this was the focus I found these sessions addressed so much more than just one area of my life.  Uncovering old core beliefs drew light on unlocking a greater relationship with myself. ​Deb has a gift, an incredible ability connecting with people on a soul level.  Her technique and level of professionalism is a winning combination for success, bringing awareness to greater possibilities. I highly recommend Deb if you are open to experiencing genuine results.~Zaida M.

 

 ~ Bowen Therapy - People and Dogs ~

​​

 The key to Bowen Therapy lies in its simplicity and gentle application. The nervous system constantly monitors its environment, responding to various inputs. The light physical pressure the Bowen Therapist uses ensures the client's acceptance is very high. The moves are a series of soft tissue releases, creating a disturbance of connective tissue over specified areas of the body. The Bowen Therapist generally applies this gentle pressure with thumbs or fingers. The pressure used is described as being eyeball pressure, meaning very light. Taking the skin in one direction followed by a roll, rather than a slide – that can be associated with other fascial release techniques – over the connective tissue. The technique can be done through light clothing; no oil is required. 

Bowen Therapy is considered a holistic preventative therapy suitable for all ages and fitness levels. It can help with symptoms of menopause, Parkinson's, autoimmune disorders, and much more. 

A series of Bowen Therapy moves draws attention to a particular area and requires priority of response. The movement has the effect of interfering with proprioception. It triggers various parts of the brain to access what action is needed, and the body responds appropriately. This can occur on a subconscious level. So even though Bowen Therapy causes deep relaxation, between sleep and waking, there is a frenzy of cerebral activity focused on the body's needs. 

After a series of moves, the Bowen Therapist inserts short breaks of approximately two minutes to allow the work to take effect. Essentially the Bowen Therapist is providing input to the body. This starts the process of structural restoration without having to interfere too much. The result is that a response is generally very rapid, and results can be seen in a very short time. Most clients report significant improvement or even resolution in two or three treatments. It's not uncommon for clients to experience changes in unrelated areas, digestion, energy, menopause symptoms, old injuries, etc.

Dogs respond well to Bowen Therapy, especially anxious pups who find it difficult to relax.
