About Spinal Flow Technique
Spinal Flow Technique is a gentle yet powerful light-touch therapeutic approach that blends philosophy, science, and a deep respect for your body’s built-in wisdom. Developed by Dr. Carli Axford after more than 20 years of research and clinical work, it taps into the idea that your body already knows how to heal itself—if we can only clear what’s in the way.
We know that stress — whether physical, emotional or related to our food and environment — creates tension in our body and nervous system. This can block the flow of energy through our spine and restriction the full function of our body. Spinal Flow doesn’t push or manipulate, it gently invites the body to release those blockages and allow our energy to flow easily.
You may have seen videos of Spinal Flow Technique being demonstrated a training events - they often show people moving spontaneously during treatments. This is fascinating to see but a treatment doesn't have that effect on everyone - some breathe more deeply, others are quite still. The changes and healing that happen as a result of Spinal Flow do not rely on lots of movement during treatments.

Who it’s for
People often seek Spinal Flow for support with:
-
Stress, anxiety & overwhelm•
-
Feeling “stuck” emotionally or physically
-
Back, neck or shoulder tension
-
Fatigue or low energy
-
Poor sleep or feeling constantly wired
-
General wellbeing & nervous system regulation
-
Longstanding aches or pains
(Everyone’s experience is unique — Spinal Flow supports the body rather than treating specific conditions.)

For babies & children
Spinal flow is very gentle - I often use it for a short time during assessment of babies with tongue tie or oral restrictions.
It is also suitable for older children and family sessions can be arranged if required.
