The Spinal Flow Technique® is a gentle, hands-on healing method that works directly with the nervous system to release stored stress and spinal blockages. This technique taps into your body’s innate intelligence to restore alignment, ease, and natural energy flow.

Created by Dr. Carli Axford (former chiropractor of 20 years), Spinal Flow is based on a deep understanding of the spine’s connection to every organ, gland, and system in the body.

The Spinal Flow® Technique is a philosophy, a science, and an intuitive, hands-on approach that prompts our spine and nervous system to release stress and help heal itself. There is an innate intelligence inside every human body to grow, repair and heal itself. Just as our gut digests our food, our hair grows and our heart beats naturally, our bodies know how to harness this innate intelligence – or Life Force Energy – to heal and grow.

The spine and nervous system is the pathway through which Life Force Energy flows. Unreleased stress creates a blockage in the spine which prevents the flow of Life Force Energy. By releasing stress stored in the spine, a Spinal Flow Practitioner helps restore the flow of healing Life Force Energy through every vertebrae in the spine and to every cell in the body.

The Spinal Flow Technique is a complete modality which allows you to Interpret the messages of the body which show as pain, dis-ease and other symptoms Identify where stress is stored in the spine Release spinal blockages Restore the flow of Life Force Energy Awaken the Spinal Flow Allow the body’s innate intelligence to heal pain, illness and dis-ease.

The Spinal Flow® Technique is a powerful and holistic approach that works with the body’s natural intelligence to release stress and tension, supporting healing and wellbeing from within. It is a complementary modality and not a registered or regulated primary health care profession. Practitioners do not diagnose or treat medical or psychological conditions. It is a gentle, non-invasive healing technique that activates the body’s innate potential to restore balance and vitality.

It does not involve any massage or manipulation of any kind to bones, ligaments, tendons or tissues of the body. How Does It Work? Using gentle contact at specific points along the 33 spinal access points, practitioners communicate directly with the nervous system. These points, located mainly on the sacrum and cranium, help the brain recognize and release stored tension, triggering the body’s own healing response.

There are no aggressive spinal adjustments or bone cracking, Spinal Flow® Technique is gentle and non-invasive, working with your body owns innate intelligence to heal. This process can lead to: Reduced pain and physical discomfort Emotional and mental clarity Better posture and mobility Improved sleep and digestion Greater resilience to stress

Here are the key benefits clients often experience:

Natural Stress Release

Spinal Flow® supports the nervous system in letting go of accumulated stress and tension. As the body unwinds, deeper relaxation, clarity, and emotional ease often emerge.

Gentle Support for Pain + Discomfort

By reducing stress patterns along the spine, many clients notice relief in areas such as the lower back, neck, hips, shoulders, or sacrum. As alignment improves, the whole system can function with greater ease.

Improved Mobility + Alignment

As the spine relaxes and unwinds, posture often improves naturally. Clients may feel more open, flexible, grounded, and aligned in their bodies.

Enhanced Nervous System Regulation

The gentle touch used in Spinal Flow® helps the brain recognize and release stored blockages. This can support better emotional regulation, clearer thinking, and a calmer baseline.

Better Sleep, Digestion + Overall Ease

When the nervous system softens, other functions often respond positively. Clients frequently report feeling more rested, digesting more easily, and moving through daily life with less tension.

Deep Relaxation + Renewed Energy

Many people leave sessions feeling lighter, more spacious, and more connected to their bodies. As tension clears, natural energy flow can return.
