Bodywork for dogs, cats & horses

What is Spinal Flow Technique?

Spinal Flow Technique is a gentle yet powerful healing modality founded by Chiropractor Dr. Carli Axford. Specifically, it works through the nervous system to release stored stressors in the body including chemical, physical, and emotional stress. As a result, this technique helps to restore natural energy flow, allowing the body to heal, regenerate, and function at its best.

How Does This Benefit Animals?

Similarly to humans, animals accumulate stress over time from various sources:

• Chemical Stressors – Exposure to toxins, medications, vaccinations, and environmental pollutants.
• Physical Stressors – Injuries, poor posture, repetitive strain, or trauma.
• Emotional Stressors – Anxiety, fear, past trauma, and changes in environment or routine.

As a result, these stressors create blockages in the nervous system, which can lead to discomfort, behavioral changes, and a decline in overall health. Furthermore, Spinal Flow helps to gently release these blockages, restoring calm, balance, and natural healing. Specifically, the Spinal Flow Technique works by identifying areas of restriction along the spine known as spinal blockages. Through light touch applied to specific points known as Spinal Gateways, this method activates the body’s natural healing response. Consequently, cerebrospinal fluid moves freely and nourishes the nervous system.

Why Choose Animal Bodywork Adelaide for Your Pet?

Animals communicate their discomfort in ways we may not always recognise, including restlessness, anxiety, behavioral changes, stiffness, or pain. In particular, horses are incredibly sensitive to energy and nervous system imbalances, while dogs can hold onto stress from trauma, aging, or illness. Therefore, Spinal Flow offers a non-invasive, soothing approach to help them feel more at ease, free-moving, and pain-free.

Both dogs, cats and horses experience physical, chemical, and emotional stress that can manifest as tension and misalignment within the spinal column. Moreover, these stressors can disrupt the optimal function of the nervous system, leading to stiffness, behavioral changes, reduced mobility, chronic pain, and even organ dysfunction. Additionally, addressing these blockages early leads to better long-term health outcomes for your animal.
