Clients choose to receive Spinal Flow for many reasons ranging from physical pain relief, emotional wellbeing, support with different health challenges or to enhance their life and wellbeing overall and connect deeper with themselves.

If you have experienced any of the following (past or present) you may benefit from Spinal Flow:

You’ll be lying comfortably on a massage table (face down is preferred) and listening to relaxing music, while I’ll be working with the access points along your head and spine.

The only thing for you to do is be aware of what you’re feeling in your body, and breathe/move with it. This isn’t a time to think, but to truly feel and go inwards.

You may feel more movement, more breath, and more energy flowing through your body, which could feel like a wave moving up and along your spine.

You may feel various sensations, including tension melting and a feeling of your body reorganizing itself.

Your body may make big movements, do little twitches or be very still.

Most people find the session to be very relaxing and feel lighter in their mind and body afterwards. However, it's important not to get attached to any particular outcome and instead choose to be open to your body healing in a way that's perfect for you, moment to moment. 

This depends entirely on what’s happening in your body and what zone of health you're currently in.

Some people come multiple times a week if their symptoms are acute.

For others, they may start with weekly session and go from there.

As with anything, frequency creates results.

Something to note: your health sits on a spectrum.

Health is not just an absence of symptoms.

The more you continue to remove what’s in the way, the healthier and more regulated your nervous system, mind and body becomes.

The question is - how far along the health spectrum would you like to go?

Do you just want to be symptom-free?

OR do you want to discover how alive, healthy, connected, empowered and at peace you can truly feel?

Your body can move a lot in one session and healing can continue to happen well after the session, so you may also experience some shifts in the following days.

After the session, I suggest you take some time to ease back into your day. Journal, have a herbal tea in the waiting area or take a brief walk around the block to assist the energy flow. The biggest thing is to not just rush off to the next thing and instead allow yourself to feel and be with yourself for an extra 5-15 minutes.

As your body makes necessary shifts and let's go of compensations, you may feel muscles you haven’t felt in a while. So don’t be surprised if you’re a little sore in new areas.

As your body shifts chemical and/or emotional tone you may find yourself feeling a bit yucky or have big feelings come up. This is all normal and healthy as your body moves things through.

You may also experience none of the above, and just leave feeling high on life or deeply relaxed.

No one outcome is better than another and I choose to celebrate anything your body decides to do on its journey back to wellness. - and I invite you to do that same.

Spinal Flow and Chiropractic both share the philosophy of a self healing body and that removing blockages in your spine will positively affect not only the structure of your body, but the healthy function of your nervous system.

With the nervous system being the master controller of all things life, it’s an important philosophy to share.

However, how Spinal flow practitioners and Chiropractors work with the body is completely different.

Chiropractors typically have an outside-in approach. They tend to relieve back pain/structural dysfunction, and improve posture through physical manipulation of the spine. They find the problem spot (subluxation) and through pushes, thrusts and other physical techniques, bring you back into alignment. 

Whereas, Spinal Flow® has a gentle inside-out approach using light touches along the access points of the head and spine, triggering the body to see these areas as places of ease, and then naturally moves to expand this ease further through the spine via a spinal wave - softening and releasing blockages on it’s way.

Spinal Flow® is gentle. It respects the intelligence of your body by allowing it to choose what it releases and when, in the safety of it’s own movement, in it’s own timing (which FYI, can be fast), and in the way your body deems most effective.

Trusting that your body knows exactly how to unwind and heal itself best.

Plus, it feels really gooood.
