Georgi Ilchev is here talking clearly about how we learn the effects of pressure, not just from practising on multiple people, but also from being a client ourselves and watching the effect of them in our own bodies.
Georgi talks about how his own practice was developed from learning about this and how it took years to develop his own understanding.

Do you go for regular sessions yourself?
How has your impression of pressure and your senstivity towards it changed over the years?

Beyond the Tissue: Exploring the Biofield, Fascia, and What Words Fail to Capture

We are back with another exciting episode of the Bowen Therapy Professional Association podcast.

Today we are joined by the wonderful Steven Goldstein, founder of the Fascia Therapy Institute in Australia and an extraordinary bodyworker.
Reflecting on his time visiting the UK in autumn 2025—and looking ahead to his return in spring 2027 to teach across Devon, Reading, and Scotland—Steven and I dive into the quiet spaces where hands-on work meets the biofield.

We explore the nature of subtle sensations in the body, why over-explaining or leaning on reductionist viewpoints can limit our understanding of healing, and how to stay present with the things that are genuinely difficult to put into words. It is a wonderfully rich, expansive conversation that looks at the deeper currents of bodywork.

This was a great and interesting interview where we go to go deeper into more philosophical ideas of body energy as it relates to us as manual practitioners.

Paula Esson is talking about how we can come around the table with the conventional and mainstream medical approaches and share the contribution that we can add as Bowen practitioners to be part of a multidisciplinary approach to health.
Paula has spent many years doing exactly this with great success. Demonstrated even more by her powerful presentation at this year's BTPA AGM

What are your thoughts and experiences on this? We'd love to hear

Business coach and Bowen practitioner talking about how she discovered this wonderful treatment.
Having been highly stressed and in a state of burnout, with back problems affecting her, no one could find an answer for what was going on.
She was referred to a Bowen Practitioner, and in her own words, it was like a miracle.

How many amazing stories have we heard like this through the years that this treatment has just been life-changing.
So many of us are here doing what we do today because of this.
