Breaking Free from Decades of Pain: A Journey to Healing with the Spinal Flow Technique

Imagine waking up each day trapped in a body overwhelmed with pain, unable to stand tall, with every step and movement a reminder of the physical toll life has taken. For one man, this was his reality. At 80 years old, just a month after celebrating his milestone birthday, he rolled over in bed and told his wife, “Well, I made it,” but his words were accompanied by the pale, pained expression of someone who had fought a long battle with his health.

This gentleman had undergone multiple heart surgeries, endured a back surgery that left him unable to stand upright, and was on a regimen of pain medications that only seemed to keep him in a holding pattern of discomfort. His daily life was a struggle, filled with regular pain management appointments and an ever-growing list of symptoms, including neuropathy, knee pain, and leg pain.

But his story was about to take a remarkable turn.

The Start Of A Transformational Journey

When he began Spinal Flow sessions with Tammy Rhodes at Sunshine Healing Therapy LLC, the change was almost immediate. “We got down to business,” Tammy recalls, describing how they started on an intensive plan of two sessions, three days a week. Within the first two weeks, the results were astonishing. “I got amazing results, amazing changes,” Tammy shares. But there was a hesitation in his eyes—a concern that maybe it was too good to be true, that the relief might be fleeting.

As fate would have it, a week-long break was necessary due to scheduling conflicts. It was during this brief pause that the true power of the Spinal Flow Technique became evident. When they resumed, Tammy was greeted by a transformed man. “He was all smiles and grins,” she says. His body had maintained the progress, and the pain did not return.

Embracing A Pain-Free Life

Now, this 80-year-old man is living a life he never thought possible at his age. He’s off his pain medications, has cancelled his pain management appointments, and is no longer plagued by the multitude of symptoms that once dictated his life. His neuropathy has improved, he’s sleeping through the night, and his posture has straightened—allowing him to stand tall and proud once again. “He told me that he just felt free,” Tammy shares, her voice filled with the joy of witnessing such a profound transformation.

The Freedom We All Deserve

Dr Carli Axford, the founder of the Spinal Flow Technique, emphasises the deeper impact of these healing stories. “We work with everybody to remove the layers so there can be less pain” Dr. Axford explains. “But that’s what makes me melt when they say, I feel free.” She explains that this sense of freedom is our natural birthright. Although it can be hidden by stress, tension, and the challenges of life, Spinal Flow helps us restore it.



For Tammy, this journey with her client is about more than just alleviating pain; it’s about seeing that “twinkle in their eye,” that moment when life returns to their face. “It’s the best,” she says.
