Spinal Touch
The human body is built in such a way that it will maintain health and vitality in Earth's environment of constant gravity, even when subjected to an unending variety of stresses. The body is self repairing and is extremely adaptable to the many internal & external changes we subject it to. This adaptability is achieved by having all parts & organs of the body situated so as to interact properly, not only with each other but with gravity as well.
Any stress whether it is physical, emotional, mental, chemical or nutritional can create an imbalance at the centre of gravity of the body. Once that has happened distortion can occur which will affect the normal functioning of the self repairing mechanisms of the body.
What to expect from a treatment?
At your first Spinal Touch treatment I will take a detailed medical history to decide if Spinal Touch is the correct treatment for you to be receiving. I will also explain how the treatment works and what I am going to do.
Generally the treatment is done with you in your underwear. Occasionally, if your underwear is too large to work around, you may be asked to undress completely and wear a treatment gown. You will be assessed standing at a plumbline and some discreet marks will be made on your body using a skin pencil. |
|
A contact point will be found and tested, which is usually around the gluteal fold (where your bottom meets the back of your upper thigh). You will be asked to lie on your front for fifteen or twenty minutes while the treatment is given. This is a very gentle massage and often induces a state of profound relaxation. After getting back up you will be checked against the plumbline again where your new posture will be compared against the marks of your first assessment.

If your body has been distorted for a prolonged period of time it will be impossible to relieve such strain in one treatment. Even if it were possible, releasing so many toxins into the bloodstream all at once could make you very ill. Therefore, it usually takes a number of treatments, in combination with any diet or life style changes that your practitioner may recommend for your individual needs, before your body regains it's normal posture and health. You may also experience reactions after the treatment, the most common being a feeling of stiffness or soreness for a day or two. The treatment is making your body expel toxins that have been stored in your chronically contracted muscles. It needs time to get rid of these.
Remember healing is a process, not an event!
Be a patient patient!

If you are not standing as erect as these drawings illustrate, you could be a candidate for health problems. Are your shoulders and hips level? Would a line down your side connect your ear, shoulder, hip, knee and ankle? or does your body show hidden signs of distortion and stress?
Ask your Spinal Touch Practitioner, we are the guardians of your health, both today's and tomorrows.
