Assisting Mothers With the Healing Process
What Is Spinal Flow?
Spinal Flow is a powerful yet gentle healing modality that facilitates healing via the nervous system. It consists of light touches on areas of the spine where meningeal tissue (dura-mata) connects the brain to the spinal cord. There is no spinal manipulation, popping, or cracking during the session.
There is an innate instinct inside every human body to restore, alleviate pain and mend itself. Just as our gut digests our food and our hair grows, our bodies know how to heal through the nervous system. The sections of the spine (see diagram below) and nerves send messages to glands, organs, and tissues at different levels throughout the body.
The body has an innate intelligence to help us adapt to the demands of the world around us. Our fast paced modern lifestyles and technology increase the amount of stress that comes into our body, as the body tries to maintain a state of equilibrium, so we can continue to function the body stores stress in our nervous system when it is overloaded and cannot process it.
The Spinal Flow Technique restores function by increasing the para-sympathetic drive —where healing, digestion, and well-being happen. Sympathetic drive- fight, flight, freeze cannot occur when the nervous system is dominated by the para-sympathetic drive, they cannot exist together at the same time.
The three most common forms of stress that store as spinal blockages (diminished nervous communication).
-
Emotional Stress From Past Traumas
-
Chemical stress from the foods we eat and the products in our environment that surround us (the average person is exposed to over 300 chemicals before they leave the house in the morning. The majority of the world’s population lives in highly polluted cities.
-
Physical stress from accidents, postural strain, or sustained sitting can lead to blockages.
Our spine and nervous system is the master controller of the human body, but stress can interrupt the healthy flow of messages up and down the spine through our nerves to our tissues and organs. Connecting with the life force within gives the body the opportunity to release these blockages of stored stress and imbalance.
Spinal Wave
The Spinal Wave is at the heart of the Spinal Flow Technique, waiting to ripple through the body and allow the body’s innate healing intelligence to flow. The Spinal Wave connects all 7 gateways of the spine and unleashes profound well-being in the body. There is a Spinal Wave inside every human body, waiting to connect our brains with our nervous system and fully explore the wisdom within.
Spinal Flow can assist anyone experiencing increased stress, pain, imbalance, or disconnection from self. Spinal Flow has helped thousands of clients with anxiety, depression, thyroid issues, aches and pains, insomnia, sleep problems, headaches and migraines, back pain, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, digestive issues, reproductive issues, fertility, and so much more.
Your body is much smarter, and its capacity to heal is much more potent than most people are ever led to believe. Dedicating time to ensure your body has ample opportunity to be in a state of rest, digest, and heal (parasympathetic drive) will help you reconnect to your authentic sense of self and purpose.
