I found the Family & Friends course to be invaluable — I was amazed at how much I could achieve learning only the first module. Fantastic; I wish I'd done it sooner.
Great learning new skills and seeing the changes in the horses before and after treatment. The manuals are also very professional.
Fantastic insight into the power of Bowen on dogs and small animals — taught with care and skill, patience and encouragement. A must for all dog owners — just brilliant.
