FAQs

1. What is Spinal Flow Therapy?

Spinal Flow Therapy is a gentle, hands-off healing modality that works with the body’s nervous system to release stored stress and restore natural spinal energy flow.

2. How does Spinal Flow Therapy work?

It works by lightly touching specific areas of the spine, called spinal gateways, to stimulate the nervous system and help your body heal itself naturally.

No. While both focus on spinal health, Spinal Flow is gentle and non-invasive with no cracking or manipulation, unlike chiropractic care.

Spinal gateways are points along your spine where stress, trauma, and tension are stored. Activating these points helps the nervous system release blockages.
