The Bowen technique: harmony for body and mind

The Bowen technique is a gentle yet powerful method aimed at restoring the body’s natural balance. Developed by Tom Bowen in Australia, it is now practised worldwide and has become renowned for alleviating various conditions.

This technique uses light, precise movements of fingers or thumbs on muscles, tendons, or ligaments. These actions send targeted impulses to the nervous system, encouraging self-regulation and natural healing. The pauses between the grips and touches are crucial to the effect of the Bowen technique. During these pauses, the body can process the impulses and react to them in order to release blockages and activate the natural healing processes.

How does the Bowen technique work?

Activating self-healing:
The technique utilises the body’s ability to self-regulate. Gentle stimulation of the muscles, tendons and nerve pathways ‘reminds’ the body to heal itself. This promotes blood circulation, improves lymph flow and can relieve muscle tension.
Stress reduction and relaxation:
The deeply relaxing nature of the method makes it effective for stress-related issues like insomnia, headaches, and chronic tension. The pauses between touches help to calm the nervous system and allow the body and mind to relax deeply.
Pain alleviation:
The Bowen Technique is well-known for relieving pain, particularly for back and joint issues, migraines, and stiffness. The gentle movements help to bring the body into muscular balance, which improves mobility and reduces pain.
Holistic effect:
The Bowen technique works not only on a physical level, but also on an emotional and mental level. By harmonising the nervous system and promoting better body awareness, it can help to reduce emotional stress and improve the general quality of life.

With VITA-LIFE magnetic resonance stimulation, you can strengthen your health naturally while promoting relaxation for both body and mind.

How does the VITA-LIFE R-System work?

Thanks to its biofeedback system, the programme adapts to your individual needs in real time.

Benefits of a healthy cellular metabolism:

Biofeedback: personalised programmes

Using a fingertip sensor, the VITA-LIFE R-System measures your heart rate variability (HRV) in real time and adjusts the programme to your specific needs. This ensures the magnetic resonance stimulation targets the areas where your body requires the most support.

Detoxification & inner cleansing:
sense the lightness from the inside out

The path to inner well-being begins with a deep cleanse of the body. By removing harmful substances, we create the foundation for vitality, joy, and enhanced well-being. At Vitalhotel Erica, we help you restore balance to your body’s cells, giving you more energy and a healthier sense of self.

Inner cleansing: balance for body and mind

Our bodies function like a delicate ecosystem – when clean and balanced, they absorb nutrients more efficiently and operate at their best. Detoxification eliminates harmful substances and regenerates the body, allowing it to better process vital nutrients. A cleansed body doesn’t just radiate outwardly but also replenishes inner strength.

ZEOLITE detox: natural cleansing with volcanic minerals

Our detox programme uses 100% natural, activated volcanic minerals (Zeolite Clinoptilolite) combined with magnesium and calcium. This unique blend binds environmental toxins and free radicals in the gastrointestinal tract, expelling them from the body within 24 hours. At the same time, essential minerals are replenished to restore internal balance.

Cleansing of the detoxification organs such as the liver, kidneys and skin
Support for weight loss and improvement of the skin’s appearance
Strengthening of the immune system and new energy for everyday life
