Bowen Workplace Rehabilitation Program
The Galway Bowen Therapy work rehabilitation program is committed to the provision of workplace rehabilitation that supports and enables injured or sick employees to remain at or return to the workplace to continue the discharge of work duties. The program benefits both the employee and the employer by offering early intervention with appropriate, adequate and timely services based on assessed needs.
Focus on Your Rehabilitation
We offer quality, safe, drug free pain relief for employees. We use proven treatment techniques and bring them together with a relaxing, upscale environment to help you (the employee) manage your pain or illness and realise positive change. When left untreated, pain can lead to long term physical and emotional issues. Our safe work rehabilitation program acts as the first step in total recovery from illness and injury.
We take a team approach and will consult with your employer and case manager, if necessary. Throughout your treatment, we will work hard to help you return to all normal functional activities. When you are ready for discharge, you will receive a personalised home exercise-program to allow you to stay healthy.
What are the Program benefits?
We focus on an active injury approach to restoring function and return to work. Whether the workplace injury has occurred from an accident or from overuse, you will find our programs helpful to:
Relieve Your Pain
Strengthen & Increase Flexibility
Improve Your Functional Abilities

Provide Workplace Injury Prevention
Health & Wellbeing Programmes
There is a real opportunity in these financially difficult times, for companies, large and small, to minimise the financial and organisational problems caused by both short-term and long-term employee absenteeism.
An investment in targeted Bowen therapy can provide valuable assistance in maintaining the health and well-being of employees, increasing efficiency, enhancing productivity and reducing the cost of sick pay.
Bowen therapy can be performed in many types of settings, with no special equipment, lotions or oils needed. The moves can be performed over clothing. Bowen therapy is remarkably effective.
As this is an effective treatment for both pain relief and mental relief, it is a great therapy for any workplace. There are many situations where the risk of musculoskeletal disorders and/or emotional strain 'comes with the job'. For example:
- Production line workers
- Lifting, bending and stretching
- Shelf-stackers
- Shop assistants
- Jobs involving prolonged standing
- Check-out staff
- Office workers
- Work requiring employees to sit for long periods of time
- Computer and visual display unit operators
- Jobs involving shoulders, arms, wrists and hands in repetitive actions for long hours
- Sales personnel
- Operating under constant pressure to meet targets or driving long distances
- Supervisor roles, Managers and Executives
- Long hours and shift work causing stress
