13 Symptoms That Spinal Flow Technique Can Help Alleviate
If you’ve heard of the spinal flow technique, you’re probably aware of its amazing ability to re-energise your body and restore it to its true capacity.
But did you know that the spinal flow technique can do a lot more than just that?
In this post, we’ve listed 13 symptoms that the spinal flow technique can help alleviate to show you how beneficial this healing modality can be.
If you’re currently experiencing any of the symptoms on our list, we strongly recommend trying the spinal flow technique—your body will thank you for it.
Understanding The 7 Gateways Of The Spine
Before we discuss the symptoms and issues that the spinal flow technique can help with, it’s essential to understand the concept of the seven gateways of the spine, which lies at the heart of this healing modality.
The seven gateways of the spine are specific areas along your spine that correspond to specific energy centres in your body.
Think of these energy centres as pools of energy in your body that regulate your well-being's physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects.
When emotional, physical, and chemical blockages burden a spinal gateway, its corresponding energy centre suffers, potentially leading to symptoms in related areas in your body.
For example, a blockage in the “pause” gateway in the upper cervical region of the spine can lead to symptoms like migraines, headaches, or colds.
Interestingly, this is also the spine region that supplies spinal nerves to structures like the eyes, neck, nose, ears, and sinuses- explaining why the symptoms are related to these structures.
If you’re interested in the role each gateway plays in your body, the table below summarises all of that information.
Knowing the role that the gateways play in your body will help you understand how the spinal flow technique alleviates the symptoms and issues we will discuss in the next section.
13 Symptoms The Spinal Flow Technique Can Help Alleviate
Now that you know how symptoms all across your body can stem from blockages in your spine, it will come as no surprise to you that the spinal flow technique can help you with such a wide range of problems and symptoms.
Pain or Stiffness in the Body: Blockages in your spine can disrupt the communication between your brain and your muscles, leading to pain, stiffness, and fatigue in your muscles. When your spinal flow practitioner releases these blockages through gentle touch techniques, the communication between your mind and your muscles will be restored, providing instant relief.
Sciatica: Sciatica causes pain and numbness along the lower back, hips, and legs. These symptoms are directly related to blockages in the foundation gateway of the spine. The spinal flow technique alleviates these symptoms by releasing blockages in the foundation gateway and restoring the connection between your mind and structures like the bladder, ovaries, prostate, and uterus.
Stress: Stress doesn’t live inside you rent-free. It builds up in your body in the form of blockages, and when it does, it stops you from living each moment to its fullest. Spinal flow practitioners are trained to locate stress blockages in your body and release them through gentle touch techniques.
When years of stress are released from your body, suddenly, everything begins to feel lighter—you feel as though you have finally broken free from everything that has been holding you back.
Sleep Issues & Insomnia: The spinal flow technique helps you get more restful nights of sleep by removing the stress from your body, relieving muscle and tissue pain, and restoring your nervous system’s ability to regulate your sleep patterns.
Postural & Mobility Issues: Postural and mobility issues stem from blockages that cause your muscles to go stiff. The spinal flow technique releases this tension from your muscles and allows your spinal signals to flow to your muscles uninterrupted- helping your posture and, consequently, your mobility.
Headaches: Blockages in the “pause” gateway of the spine can often lead to headaches because they are directly related to structures like the neck, eyes, ears, nose, and sinuses. Spinal flow practitioners release the blockages from this gateway to reduce inflammation and irritation in the nerves leading into these structures, alleviating symptoms.
Low Energy & Fatigue: If you’ve been experiencing fatigue and low energy levels no matter how well you rest or nourish your body, the problem might stem from your body’s inability to renew due to spinal blockages- particularly in the pause and base gateways. When spinal flow practitioners release these blockages, the connection between your mind and body is restored, and your body’s innate life force (its innate intelligence to renew and heal itself) flows freely through your body.
Chronic Debilitation: The spinal flow technique can help alleviate symptoms of chronic debilitation by improving the flow of life in your body, restoring your body’s innate ability to heal and renew itself.
Fibromyalgia: Fibromyalgia is associated with musculoskeletal pain and fatigue in specific areas of the body. Its symptoms often worsen because blockages don’t allow your brain to communicate with the affected region properly. By restoring this communication channel, the spinal flow technique helps alleviate the pain and fatigue associated with Fibromyalgia.
Digestive Issues: Symptoms of digestive issues such as constipation often stem directly from blockages in the power gateway of the spine. The spinal flow technique improves nerve communication to your digestive system and activates your body’s natural healing intelligence to restore balance within the system.
Depression & Anxiety: Your traumas and emotional stresses often store themselves in your body in the form of blockages. This disrupts the emotional balance in your body and keeps you in a bad mood. This is where the spinal flow technique steps in and restores your body’s natural healing and processes to help you achieve emotional balance again.
Period Pain: Period can often worsen due to blockages in the spine that affect the
nervous system and disrupt the body's natural response to inflammation. The spinal flow technique releases these blockages to promote a better flow of spinal signals to your reproductive organs, helping alleviate much of the discomfort from menstrual cramps.Reproductive Issues: Spinal blockages don’t cause infertility. But if you’re facing infertility issues, some anecdotal evidence suggests that the release of those blockages can improve your chances of conceiving- possibly because the spinal flow technique restores the communication between your spine and your reproductive organs.

How Long Does It Take To Get Relief From The Spinal Flow Technique
At this stage, you might also wonder how long it takes to see results from the spinal flow technique.
Unfortunately, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. Every individual has a unique walk of life, which means they have their own unique set of emotional, chemical, and physical stresses stored in their body.
Generally speaking, you can experience short-term relief from spinal flow healing sessions almost instantly. However, you typically need to book multiple sessions to make this relief last.
The exact number of sessions you will need to experience long-term relief will depend on your specific needs, i.e., on the number and severity of the blockages in your body.
But don’t worry; spinal flow practitioners can usually give you a pretty good estimate of the number of sessions you would need during your initial consultation.
The spinal flow technique is more than just a treatment that will revitalise your body- it can help alleviate the symptoms of almost any health issue you might be facing.
So, whether headaches, chronic stress, insomnia, or emotional imbalances are holding you down, we strongly recommend using spinal flow sessions to help your body heal itself.
