Education Resources
This is our most affordable way to learn IBT Bowen Therapy and is designed for students who want access to the educational materials and want to learn at their own pace and don’t immediately require a qualification. This will enable students to use their IBT education to treat family members, friends and has enabled existing remedial therapists to add Bowen Technique to their current treatments.
This is also a viable option for Australian Therapists who hold a qualification and are seeking Continued Points of Education (CPE). The number of points received varies depending on the qualification you are registered with. As an example, Therapists registered with the Australian Natural Therapists Association (ANTA) can achieve 20 CPE points on completion of the Certificate course alone. IBT’s Director, Bronson Bertschinger, has been a massage therapist and massage instructor for many years and he focuses on teaching students how IBT Bowen Therapy cannot only be effectively combined with massage therapy but also utilized with many other allied health modalities.
This is not only a great option for Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, Doctors, Nurses, massage therapists and personal trainers but also for those who just wish to learn Bowen Therapy to do it on family and friends.
