Frequently asked questions.
What does a treatment feel like?
Spinal Flow treatments are very safe and gentle. We use very gentle and precise physical touch on specific points on the cranium and sacrum. These are called “access points” and give the practitioner a direct pathway to the nervous system or what we like to call the “master controller” of the body. During a spinal flow session, clients say they feel relaxed and that they feel very connected to their bodies. Some clients say the treatment sometimes feels like a deep meditation, others find the experience simply indescribable.
What happens during a treatment?
The treatment will be conducted face down on a massage bed. During the session you will feel gentle touch on specific areas of your spine and head. A gentle wave is felt from your tail bone up to your head. Clients are encouraged to focus on different areas of their spine to help them feel any blockages so that more awareness is developed over time.
What is the Spinal Flow wave?
The spinal wave is the body’s innate and natural movement of the spine, and it will be more obvious during a spinal flow treatment. The wave is what moves through the body, usually in three ways moving, sensing and/or breathing. Often the wave is so slight it may be difficult to even notice unless you pay very close attention or have a very high awareness of your own internal physiology. Many clients comment on being able to feel something inside them and report feeling a deeper connection to their body.
Do private health rebates apply?
The spinal flow technique is regulated by its own professional body not AHPRA and as such private health rebates are not applicable.
How often will I require treatments?
Every person will have different requirements because every person is different! Some people have immediate results but other people find that their recovery takes time. Someone who has long-standing acute issues may tend to heal more slowly and require more frequent treatments initially. As clients start to experience change and healing, the frequency of treatments reduces. Most treatments last from 20 to 30 minutes each. Children tend to respond to treatment very quickly.
Who can have Spinal Flow?
We treat clients of all ages who are experiencing a range of dis-ease and symptoms. As the technique is so gentle, anyone and everyone can experience the benefits of Spinal Flow.
