Spinal Flow
Spinal Flow is a gentle, light-touch technique. The practitioner applies light contact at points along the spine while you lie comfortably on a treatment table, fully clothed. There is no manipulation, cracking or forceful pressure.
What happens in a session
Your first session starts with a conversation about why you've come and anything the practitioner needs to know about your health. You then lie face down or on your back while Amy works along your spine with light contact. Sessions take about 30 minutes, and you can ask to stop or change position at any time. Sessions are quiet and unhurried, and many people simply rest while the practitioner works.
Who provides it
Spinal Flow at Warwick Physioworks is provided by Amy Ross, a trained Spinal Flow practitioner. Amy is not a physiotherapist or a registered health practitioner.
Spinal Flow and physiotherapy
Spinal Flow is not a physiotherapy treatment and is not a substitute for medical or physiotherapy assessment. If you have pain, an injury, numbness, weakness or any symptoms you're worried about, see your GP or book a physiotherapy assessment first. Some people use Spinal Flow alongside physiotherapy or other care; if you're under a doctor's or physio's care, let them know you're attending.
