WORKSHOP

By the use of specific ‘nerve stimulation’ sequences of moves, this workshop targets common Urinary System and Reproductive System problems of males and females at all stages of life: childhood; adolescence; trying to conceive, pregnancy, post-partum; menopause/andropause; and senior years.

This three-day advanced workshop is for experienced manual therapists with a light touch. Please note that these nerve-stimulation procedures are not an alternative to medical treatment.

This workshop covers:

• The physiological adaptive range concept, and how stress, exhaustion, poor nutrition, emotion, accumulated injuries, and other factors affect it.

• Anatomy of the Endocrine, Reproduction and Urinary Systems.

• The impact of structural misalignment (including the pelvis, occiput and jaw) on the Endocrine System in general and the Pituitary gland in particular.

• The impact of muscle compression on nerves that supply the urinary and reproductive organs.

You will learn to locate key nerves and perform new bodywork moves in specific combinations to address:

• Period pain, endometriosis, PMS

• Infertility (male or female). It is estimated that one in six or seven North American couples have difficulty conceiving. You will learn how to support the client’s goal of either natural conception or IVF.

• Preparation for birth

• Post partum procedures for painful intercourse

• Menopause symptoms, low libido, vaginal dryness

• Enlarged prostate, low testosterone, firmer erections

• Bedwetting & incontinence

and more…

Feedback: “So many people need this work. Thank you so much for your dedication to this work.”

Workshop Origin: The late Trevor Rose, an Australian Bowen therapist, worked with medical practitioners to develop nerve stimulation procedures. Ron Phelan of Australia subsequently taught Trevor’s workshop to Bowen therapists around the world. In 2022, Ron and Trevor’s widow Athalie Rose licensed Madeline McBride to teach the workshop in Canada and the United States. In 2025/26, Ron and Madeline revised and expanded the original workshop to three days so that it could be taught by Madeline to any type of manual therapist. Read more about the origin at the Hormone Release the Bowen Way international site.

Prerequisite: experience as a hands-on therapist. Outcomes for clients hoping to become pregnant will be better if you first learn to align the pelvis in the Biomechanics of Back, Hip, and Knee Pain workshop and the jaw/sphenoid bone in the Jaw and Sphenoid Alignment workshop.

North American Instructor: Madeline McBride, M.A.Sc., P. Eng., Certified Bowenwork (Bowtech) Practitioner
