FOR twenty years Ros Jennings, worked as a professional pianist and singer, tinkling the ivories in hotel piano bars across Europe.<\/p>\n
As a teacher, musician, composer and performer music has been her life.<\/p>\n
Upon her return to Australia she was looking for a change, something that would motivate and inspire her.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wanted to come back home and continue enjoying the freedom and flexibility of working for myself,\u201d Ms Jennings said.<\/p>\n
Setting up a new business as a piano teacher in Ballarat meant she maintained her ongoing love of music.<\/p>\n
Then she realised her new love was to qualify as a Bowen therapist.<\/p>\n
\u201cOver the years each time I came home I\u2019d have a couple of Bowen therapy sessions and my body would be back in balance and I would feel great,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI recognised this was the other field I wanted to move into now I had retired from performing and travelling.\u201d<\/p>\n
When she undertook studies in her late 40s at Bowen Training Australia she found that a lot of the students were coming out of other fields of work just like herself.<\/p>\n
Health and wellbeing is a sector that attracts a lot of people seeking a change of life or career.<\/p>\n
Bowen therapy is used to bring the nervous system into equilibrium by stimulating the thin layer of connective tissue known as the fascia.<\/p>\n
Through applying soft pressure to the fascia and nerve receptors, the therapy allows the body to unwind from long-held tension and to revert to its original state. The experience of a treatment is gentle, subtle and relaxing.<\/p>\n
As a full member of the Bowen Association Australia, Ms Jennings took the plunge establishing a home-based Bowen therapy practice as her second business.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve never been afraid of uprooting and starting over,\u201d she said. \u201cKeyed In Music, my piano teaching business, is one year ahead of Always Bowen so I am busily working on building my clientele.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy aim is to spread my time equally across both endeavours as they help people, one creatively and the other physically.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
