FAQs
What to expect on your first visit
Your first visit will last 60-90 minutes, including treatment. Your practitioner will review your intake form with you and discuss your goals. They will conduct a movement and postural assessment as well as palpate your spine to identify blockages.
You’ll then lie face-down on a treatment table for your first treatment. Your practitioner will apply gentle touch to specific spinal access points, primarily on the sacrum and cranium. Each Spinal Flow session lasts about 30 minutes.
Some people don’t feel a lot during the first session – that’s fine. There is no “right” sensation – your body will dictate what it is ready to release. The treatments have a cumulative effect and over time, you might notice greater emotional stability, reduced pain, better sleep, and an increased sense of calm and resilience.

How does Spinal Flow work?
Your spine is the superhighway connecting your brain to your entire body. Over time, physical, chemical, and emotional stressors create blockages along the spine, interfering with your spinal flow. The result can be pain, disease, or mental distress.
In every body there is a natural healing intelligence that flows through the nervous system. Spinal Flow Technique helps identify and release spinal blockages, promoting natural healing.
Watch the creator of Spinal Flow Technique, Dr. Carli Axford, explain the intelligence of the body and Spinal Flow here.
