The Essentials of Spinal Flow® Technique
What is Spinal Flow Technique?
The Spinal Flow Technique is a gentle, hands-on approach to healing that focuses on the seven gateways of the spine and 33 access points along the nervous system. These points help identify and release blockages caused by physical, emotional, or chemical stress. When these blockages are present, they can interrupt the body’s natural communication between the brain and the rest of the nervous system—often showing up as pain, illness, or a general sense of being stuck or disconnected.
Rather than ignoring discomfort, Spinal Flow views it as the body’s way of asking for support. By tuning in early, we can prevent deeper issues and support the body before stress builds up. This technique blends science with holistic principles, allowing us to locate and release what’s no longer serving the body—so it can return to a state of balance and ease.
Using light contact at specific spinal points, we help the body release stored tension and reawaken its natural healing wisdom. It’s not just about relieving symptoms—it’s about creating space for real, lasting well-being.
Who Created Spinal Flow?
Chiropractor Dr. Carli Axford developed the Spinal Flow Technique. Drawing from her extensive hands-on experience and a passion for exploring different methods during her travels, she uncovered the body's natural healing wisdom known as the "spinal flow wave." This technique aims to expand this innate healing capacity.
Blockages disrupt communication between our brain, central nervous, and peripheral nervous systems, affecting our entire body. This disruption can result in pain, symptoms, diseases, emotional distress, and a sense of disconnection. Recognizing pain as a warning signal, the Spinal Flow Technique empowers individuals to take proactive steps before pain escalates into severe health issues.
How Does Spinal Flow Work?
A certified spinal flow practitioner will communicate directly with your nervous system by engaging with the 33 access points along your head and spine. As we contact each access point, your body recognizes it as a gateway to ease, initiating a spinal wave that ripples through your spine. This wave softens, shifts, and releases blockages along its path.
Our commitment is to persist until we've cleared the way for healing. We help guide your body from the fight-or-flight response and into the parasympathetic state of rest and digestion, allowing your body's innate wisdom to flow freely and facilitate its natural healing processes.
The outcome? Not only structural realignment, release of stress and stored trauma but also a profound sense of peace, connection, and ease.
When we remove blockages and support the nervous system, the body can begin to heal from the effects of stress, tension, and chronic conditions
The 7 Gateways of the Spine
At the heart of the Spinal Flow Technique are the seven gateways of the spine—distinct areas where stress tends to be stored and expressed in the body. Each gateway connects to specific organs, emotions, and physical symptoms, offering a map to understand how the nervous system is functioning.
When these gateways are blocked by physical, chemical, or emotional stress, the nervous system’s ability to communicate and self-regulate is disrupted. Through gentle touch and focused attention, we can release these stored patterns—restoring flow, easing tension, and supporting the body’s natural healing intelligence.
We work with all seven gateways to help identify the root cause of pain, illness, or disconnection. Whether you’re experiencing digestive issues, chronic fatigue, anxiety, or physical discomfort, the gateways offer a pathway back to balance.
Each gateway holds different symptoms and stories of life experiences, particularly with stress
As spinal flow practitioners, we frequently refer to the 7 gateways of the spine as we communicate with you - from your first appointment, at each visit to the reassessments. We feel it is essential that you understand that when there is a blockage in a specific part of your spine, you will experience symptoms associated with the nerve supply in that area. After all, it is your body, and you have decided to commit to caring for and helping your body heal to allow optimal functionality to live your very best life. This technique is truly transformative.
