Spinal Flow

There is a natural healing intelligence that exists within, and flows through the 7 gateways of the spine as spinal flow. Spinal Flow delivers life force to, and communicates with, every cell of our body. Pain, dis-ease and illness are indications of spinal blockages, which stem from 3 types of stress: physical, chemical, and emotional.

Whether it be physical, chemical , or emotional stress - the body releases these stresses during each Spinal Flow session. The Practitioner applies light pressure to the sacral and cranial access points, which fires the brain to communicate with the spinal cord. Between each vertebrae there are spinal roots that connect to every nerve in our body. When there is a spinal blockage - communication from the brain to the rest of the nervous system is hindered - therefore causing pain, illness, disconnect, and dis-ease.

Upon assessment, the Practitioner can determine where there is a spinal block. Each gateway of the spine connects to different organs and functions of the body. Symptoms directly relate to the blocked vertebra and its nerve function. Practitioners work with the spinal fluid, nervous system and access points to guide the body in releasing these blockages - which in turn releases the symptoms clients are experiencing.

What is Spinal Flow?

 

The Spinal Flow® Technique was developed by Dr. Carli Axford with over 20 years of research, observation and clinical success. It is a healing modality rooted in chiropractic, Network Spinal Care and Craniosacral.

The Spinal Flow® Technique combines philosophy, science, and a gentle, intuitive, hands-on approach to guide the nervous system away from the sympathetic stress response of fight/flight, which humans can often remain stuck in for decades. It is not possible for the body to heal itself when stressed, overwhelmed or stuck in a shut down/freeze response. Spinal Flow facilitates the release of both past and present stress, supporting the body’s natural capacity to reorganize, heal and regenerate toward optimal wellness.

Everyone is born with an incredible sustaining intelligence or life force energy in the body that is both complicated and highly organized. When stress remains unresolved, it can create blockages in the spine, disrupting the flow of this essential energy. These blockages affect the proper functioning of organs, tissues, muscles, and cells throughout the body.

By enhancing spinal flow, this life force energy can move freely along the spine, encouraging reorganization and release of tension patterns . This process helps release "stuck" or unresolved stress, allowing the body to correct distortions, align posture, and achieve balance. As a result, many experience reduced symptoms and a heightened sense of well-being, and a better resilience to stress.
