The Communication Balance Challenge
(In association with “The Power of Balanced Communication” by Julie Lucas–Hokin @ Forward Motion Freedom) Feel free, or not to go back and read the article.
A Note from Julie
Let’s be honest, holiday season conversations can feel like a full-contact sport.
So, as part of our November–December Focus on Balance, I’m trying something radical: pausing before speaking (yes, apparently that’s a thing).
For these two months, each balance article will come with a personal challenge, one that I’m doing myself and inviting you to join if it feels right. No seven-day sprints, no checklists ,just a mindful practice you can lean into (or file under “something funny to try later”).
This one is all about finding balance in communication, because sometimes the trickiest thing to manage isn’t our schedule… it’s our mouths.
________________________________________
The Communication Balance Challenge
Finding the Sweet Spot Between Speaking and Listening
Ah, communication, that deliciously complicated dance where one misstep can turn connection into chaos. A stray comment, an overzealous truth, a full on mouth vomit from a triggered wound, or a moment when your brain forgets to check in with your mouth before sending the message. (We’ve all been there.)
This month’s challenge is simple but mighty:
Let’s practice the art of balanced communication, that space between silence and overshare, between honesty and diplomacy, between blurting and breathing.
________________________________________ The Challenge
🫢 1. The Power of the Pause
Before you respond, pause.
Not just the polite one-breath pause that barely registers, but the kind where the other person starts wondering if your Wi-Fi dropped.
If you can stretch it long enough that they’re tempted to jump in and finish your sentence for you, congratulations, you’ve reached advanced pause mastery.
If all you can manage is one deep breath before your words tumble out, that’s still progress. (Beginner level unlocked: one inhale, no regrets.)
________________________________________
🍋 2. Sweeten the Mix
Speak your truth, but serve it with care.
A dash of kindness turns honesty from “ouch” to “okay, I can hear that.”
Remember, it’s not censorship; it’s seasoning. Epsom salts might look like sugar, but only one belongs in the pie.
________________________________________
👂 3. Listen Like You Mean It
Try listening without planning your reply.
Not just nodding politely, actually absorbing what’s said.
Balanced communication is a duet, not a solo. (Even if you think you have the better lyrics.)
________________________________________
🩷 4. Repair with Grace
When words go sideways, and they will, own it, laugh (if appropriate), and start again.
“Can we hit reset?” is often the most balanced phrase you’ll ever say.
________________________________________
🪞 5. Celebrate the Tries, Not the Perfection
Balance isn’t about never stumbling. It’s about noticing when you wobble and gently returning to centre, hopefully without spilling your emotional coffee on anyone.
________________________________________
💬 Wrapping It Up
Balanced communication is less about flawless delivery and more about showing up with awareness. It’s the willingness to pause, add a little sweetness, and stay curious in the conversation, even when things get messy.
So, here’s my challenge, and my invitation:
Let’s practice the art of communication with a little more grace, a little more humour, and a lot more heart.
And if all else fails, remember:
“Sorry, I’m practicing my pause” is a perfectly acceptable way to buy time and sound wise.

The Power of Balanced Communication
By Julie Lucas – Hokin @ forward motion freedom
Ah, the holidays. A time of joy, celebration, and... the occasional verbal slip-up. (I’ve certainly had my share this week.) You know the moment, someone says something that sends you into a mental tailspin, and before you can stop yourself, your words spill out like a poorly timed stand-up routine. You think, “I didn’t mean to say that!” Or I did mean to say that, but not in that manner.” and we hope its one of those moments the recipient has a convenient lapse of memory. Communication, in all its beauty, is a delicate dance. It can bring us closer or push us farther apart, sometimes in the blink of an eye.
But what if we could find the sweet spot between speaking our truth and knowing when to hit the pause button? If we could take a second to consider how our words will land, perhaps we’d be able to stay more balanced and connected in our conversations, especially as we head into the busy holiday season.
________________________________________
The Recipe for Speaking Your Truth
Speaking your truth is essential, but timing and delivery matter just as much. Communication, after all, is a bit like cooking. You can have the best ingredients, your thoughts, your feelings, your opinions, but if you throw them together too hastily or serve them at the wrong temperature, the result can leave a bad taste in everyone’s mouth.
Take my neighbour, for example, lovely woman, always eager to share. One day she proudly baked a lemon meringue pie and brought it over for dessert, except, in her rush, she’d accidentally used Epsom salts instead of sugar. To be fair, she kept them both in canisters on the bench, easy mistake, disastrous outcome.
Now, Epsom salts have their uses, but they’re not exactly a recommended substitute for sweetness. The pie looked perfect, golden meringue, flaky crust, but one bite was all it took to know something had gone horribly wrong. It was bitter, sharp, and made your mouth pucker in protest. We didn’t go back for seconds, which was probably a good thing, because a few more bites and we’d all have been running for the bathroom.
And isn’t that just like words? The wrong mix, too much honesty, not enough care, the wrong timing, can leave a conversation just as bitter. (Yep, I have had that bitter experience myself, in both roles the one with verbal diarrhea and the one, smelling its stench.) A single comment can be hard to swallow but keep dishing it out and things can quickly get messy.
So, before you serve up your truth, take a moment to check your recipe. A little sweetness, a dash of timing, and a thoughtful blend of honesty go a long way. Because whether it’s pie or conversation, you want people to savour what you share, not suffer the aftertaste.
When we do get it wrong, because we all do, that’s where repair becomes the real ingredient of connection. A simple “sorry” or “can we start that conversation again?” can turn a sour moment into something tender and human. It’s like remaking the pie, it may not erase the mistake, but it shows care, and that’s what people remember. In the end, it’s not about getting every recipe right, it’s about being willing to stay at the table, keep learning, and keep choosing to serve up something better next time.
________________________________________
Responding vs. Reacting
Now, let’s talk about the difference between reacting and responding. It’s like the difference between a knee-jerk reflex and a well-thought-out reply. Reacting is automatic, like stepping into a puddle before you even realize it’s there. It can be messy, uncomfortable, and often, a little regretful.
Responding, however, is a more deliberate act. It’s like looking down before you step into that puddle, and choosing whether to jump over it, walk around it, or if you’re feeling brave, stroll straight through it, but on purpose this time.
When we react impulsively, we risk saying things we don’t mean or escalating conflict unnecessarily. We’ve all been there, reacting out of trigger, frustration, anger, or even excitement, only to realize later that we’ve stepped on a few emotional toes. Responding, on the other hand, creates space for dialogue and understanding. It says, “I hear you. Let me think about this, and I’ll share my thoughts with respect.”
I learnt this (still very much in practice mode) from a friend’s father. He always had this remarkable ability to pause before responding, just a small, thoughtful silence, but it changed everything. That pause had magic in it. It built trust, created a bridge, and made space where both people could be seen and heard. I wish I could say I’ve mastered it, but more often than not, my version of a pause is somewhere between an awkward silence and me blurting out something halfway through my own thought. Still, when I do manage it, it works like a charm.

________________________________________
The Role of Balance in Communication
In many ways, communication mirrors the balance we strive for in life. It’s not just about expressing ourselves, it’s about creating a rhythm, a flow where both voices can be heard, and both perspectives can coexist. Balance means knowing when to speak and when to listen, when to offer your thoughts and when to hold space for someone else's. It’s a delicate push and pull, where the conversation never feels one-sided.
True communication is about connection, not confrontation. It’s about asking questions, being open, and receiving just as much as we give. Balance allows us to stay grounded, to consider the other person’s feelings, and to express ourselves with kindness. When we approach communication from this place of balance, it fosters deeper understanding and trust in our relationships, whether they’re personal or professional.
________________________________________
Wrapping Up: Finding Your Balance in Communication
So, as we enter the final stretch of 2025, let’s make a commitment to balance in our conversations. Not just to speak, but to listen. Not just to share, but to consider. Communication isn’t about winning or being right; it’s about being present, being heard, and creating mutual respect in every interaction.
Take a moment today to reflect on your communication style. How often do you react impulsively? When was the last time you paused before responding? Balancing speaking your truth with the power of pause is the first step in deepening your connections with others.
If you’re ready to explore more about balancing communication (and life), or if you are struggling with your communication style, remember part of the balance of life is reaching out to those who can help you create that balance you desire to become the best possible you in relationship with self and others.
From Julie, (who often stumbles in her communication, continuing to refine the recipe)

Let’s Begin to Explore Balance
By Julie Lucas-Hokin — Forward Motion Freedom
Balance.
Such a small word for such a big job. It touches everything, the way we move, rest, think, interact and try (sometimes valiantly) to keep it all together.
As we step into the final stretch of the year, “balance” feels like the perfect theme. Not the rigid, yogi-on-a-mountain kind of balance but the human, slightly wobbly, “doing my best and hoping the dopamine kicks in soon” kind.
Sometimes balance feels like walking a tightrope, calm and focused, wind in your hair, feeling almost graceful.
Other times, it’s like trying to stand on one foot while answering an email, stirring the soup, and remembering where you left your phone.
And then there are the moments when balance simply… leaves the chat.
Like when your washing machine hits the spin cycle and starts migrating across the laundry room like it’s looking for freedom.
Or when your robot vacuum gives up on life and spins in existential circles under the couch.
Or that unforgettable test of balance, stepping barefoot on a LEGO brick and instantly achieving enlightenment through pain.
Those moments, ridiculous as they are, remind us what life’s really like, too much of one thing crammed in, not enough breathing room, and suddenly everything’s doing the cha-cha off-kilter.
________________________________________
The Many Faces of Balance
Balance isn’t just how we stand. It’s how we live. It’s that delicate space between doing and being, between holding on and letting go, between striving and surrendering.
(Also, between snacks and salads, because let’s be honest, that’s a real balancing act too.)
We often talk about balance as if it’s something to achieve, like a trophy we can display once we’ve perfected our lives, but in truth, balance is more like surfing, there’s movement, wobble, and the occasional spectacular wipeout. It shifts with our seasons, our energy, our priorities, and the sheer unpredictability of being human.
Physical balance changes over time, too. As we age, the tiny muscles and sensors that keep us upright need extra love. Practicing balance, through mindful movement, gentle strength, or even standing on one leg while brushing your teeth, keeps both your body and your sense of humour flexible. (Pro tip: make eye contact with someone while doing this and pretend it’s totally normal.)
But balance isn’t just physical. It lives in our emotional world, in how we handle change, manage expectations, interact with world and others and ourselves.
________________________________________
Why It Matters Now
The end of the year has its own special rhythm, a mix of sparkle and chaos.
One moment you’re sipping cocoa and feeling festive; the next, you’re buried in wrapping paper, tied up in sticky tape and your phone pings with the reminders of all the bills that are due when you just bought that silk scarf for your neighbour because she’s been a lifesaver this year.
This is exactly when balance matters most, not as a luxury, but as survival wisdom.
It’s what helps us stay steady in the swirl, grounded in the movement, and gentle with ourselves when life feels like it’s on fast-forward.
________________________________________
The Journey Ahead
Over the next couple of months, we’ll explore balance in all its forms, physical, emotional, energetic, and the everyday.
There’ll be stories, reflections, and little challenges to help you reconnect with your own centre, without adding another thing to your list of things to balance.
Some weeks might feel like walking a tightrope. Others might flow with ease. Some times you fall off the fence and plant face first into a fresh cow pat.
Either way, we’ll keep showing up, feet steady, hearts open, humour firmly intact.
So, as we begin, take a deep breath, notice where you are.
Maybe plant both feet on the ground… and do a quick LEGO check first.

Forward Motion Freedom — November to December Focus. BALANCE!
Well, here we are, the last stretch of the year. The shops have started playing Mariah Carey again (already!), diaries are filling faster than our inboxes, and we’re officially entering what I lovingly call the Silly Season.
At Forward Motion Freedom, our October focus was Uniqueness and Consistency, helping you connect with your own rhythm and flow and start on the right foot (pun still very much intended!).
Now, as we head toward the tail end of 2025, we’re turning our attention to a theme that feels particularly needed right now: Balance.
________________________________________
Why Balance — and Why Now?
And no, I don’t just mean balancing on one leg (although physical balance will be part of it). I’m also talking about standing on that stray piece of LEGO and trying to hop, scream and stay upright all at the same time while grimacing that you asked the kids 100 times to pick it up (and yes, it’s somehow back on the “Dear Santa” list), or walking along a fence without tumbling into a cow pat, if you can do that gracefully, hats off to you!
But truly, I’m talking about something deeper:
Balance in life, between doing and being, giving and receiving, socialising and solitude, structure and surrender, etc etc etc.
This time of year has a way of throwing balance straight out the window. We push to finish work projects, juggle family commitments, get swept up in the holiday buzz, and before we know it, we’re running on caffeine and mince pies, wondering why our nervous system feels like it’s been through a blender.
Balance isn’t always about doing less (though sometimes that helps). It’s about staying in tune with yourself as you move through life’s chaos, noticing what grounds you, what nourishes you, and what quietly drains you. It’s about remembering that you are at the centre of your own world, and when you’re steady, everything else flows more easily.
________________________________________
How Forward Motion Freedom Can Support You
This final focus of the year will explore how balance shows up, in your body, energy, emotions, and relationships.
At Forward Motion Freedom, healing isn’t a quick fix or a one-size-fits-all formula. It’s a deeply personal journey of reconnection and balance, body, energy, heart, and soul.
Through modalities like massage therapy, Spinal Flow, Fascial Release, Energy Recalibration, Freedom to Thrive, and Family constellations work, I support you in finding your own equilibrium, that sweet spot where your system feels aligned, clear, and at ease.
Each session is about helping you re-centre, so you can move forward with clarity and vitality, even when life gets a little silly around the edges.
________________________________________
💛 A Personal Note
I’ll be honest, this focus on balance isn’t just for my clients; it’s for me, too. I’ll be travelling this journey with you, learning and exploring as I go.
Sometimes, balance means accepting that some things need to rest lower on the see-saw while others rise higher, and that’s still balance.
During November, my family takes the top spot on that see-saw. So, my on-site client time will take a smaller role for a little while.
Between November 12th and 27th, I’ll still be here and available, for online sessions. I’ll also be connecting through this space and my business page.
If you’re wanting some hands-on bodywork, there are limited spaces before November 12th, and after that, I can help you book ahead to secure your spot as we head toward Christmas.
This is me walking the talk, leaning into balance, living it, and letting it guide the rhythm of both my work and my personal life.
________________________________________
Let’s Finish the Year Balanced
For the remainder of 2025, I invite you to make balance your anchor. Let’s explore it together, in your body, your choices, and your daily rhythms.
Take a breath. Feel your feet on the ground. Remember, you don’t have to do it all, at least, not all at once.
And when you’re ready for support in returning to your centre, you know where to find me:

Forward Motion Freedom: My October Testimony
Hi everyone,
As we close out October and this month’s focus on Uniqueness and Consistency, I wanted to take a deep breath and share something a little vulnerable, a small microscopic glimpse of my own healing journey.
I’m coming up to sixty-three, and, well… let’s just say I’ve had my fair share of upgrades.
I’ve had 13 surgeries, two total hip replacements, reconstructed legs, and enough metal in me to guarantee a personal es**rt through airport security every time I travel.
Most of those surgeries came from a mix of trauma, abuse, and the physical toll that all of that takes. The surgeries were necessary, amongst other things they gave me the chance to walk again, but they didn’t make me whole.
That’s taken a lot of work, consistency, and the modalities I now live and breathe.
There was a time I thought my gardening days were over.
If you’ve seen my garden, you know it’s not a few pots of herbs, its trees, hedges, and a fair bit of heavy-duty, back breaking digging and lopping and pruning. I’ve got an extension chainsaw and pruners and trimmers that has me reaching over my head for hours.
Back then, one day in the garden would wipe me out for nearly a week. I used to think, “Maybe that’s it. Maybe I just can’t do this anymore.”
But not anymore. Just this week, after two full days of heavy work, pruning, sawing, hauling, bending, I bounced back incredibly fast.
That’s the power of Spinal Flow Technique.
One of its greatest gifts to me is that it’s given me resilience and rapid recovery, not just strength to get through things, but the ability to bounce back with relative ease.
And that’s because I’ve been consistent, with Spinal Flow before and after, working with my fascia, doing my energy recalibration, my trauma release, my mindset work.
It all adds up.
Even while I’m working, I remind myself:
➡️ “Drop your shoulders.”
➡️ “Relax your jaw.”
➡️ “How can I do this in the most relaxed way possible?”
That simple question changes everything. It keeps me moving with flow instead of fighting against myself. Which is one of the things I do, a survival technique, from trauma. Yep I still do it, not completely automatic not to, yet!
Now, I want to be clear, every day isn’t perfect. I still have aches, pains, obstacles, and heartaches. That’s part of life. But the difference now is that the work, and my consistency, help me through those times. They help me see the blessings and the joys even in the messy bits. (Well some days, not all days, sometimes is like being on the sinking titanic and no life boats left)
What I’ve learned is that all of these modalities, Spinal Flow, fascial release, family constellation work, energy recalibration, trauma release, and even massage, they don’t give the same thing to everyone.
What they bring is uniquely yours, they meet you where you are, and they support what you need.
For me, they’ve brought wholeness, freedom, and a sense of who I am and the strength to live by my core values (Mostly, I’m very human and I sometimes act in less than ways. I’ve still got a lot to learn)
For you, it might be emotional release, or better sleep, or less pain, or simply feeling more like yourself again.
Here’s what each one has given me:
💫 Spinal Flow Technique, better posture, resilience, strength, and the ability to bounce back quickly.
💫 Fascial Release, freedom in my body and emotional calm.
💫 Energy Work & Recalibration, balance, alignment, and lightness, vibrancy.
💫 Family Constellations, understanding, forgiveness, and compassion for myself and others. New perspectives
💫 Massage, the power of safe, nurturing touch and the ability to truly feel again, and appropriately trust.
💫 Trauma Release, peace in my soul and freedom in my heart. A sense of value and worth.
💫 The Power of Words, ( my writing diploma highlighted this) awareness that language is energy, and choosing words carefully changes everything.
This is just a small glimpse of what these modalities have done for me.
Thirteen surgeries, years of trauma, and a lot of hard work later, I’m standing here, climbing ladders, laughing, feeling alive, and waking up grateful for another day, and doing the occasional happy dance for myself and others. ( but not while up a ladder)
That’s what Forward Motion Freedom means to me.
It’s not about perfection, it’s about commitment.
It’s not about never falling ( except definitely never from a ladder) it’s about getting up, breathing, and flowing forward with grace.
So, from my heart to yours:
Keep showing up keep doing the work.
Because your freedom, your healing, your transformation, it’s all uniquely yours

Forward Motion Freedom: Uniqueness & Consistency — 7-Day Focus Plan
Well, would you look at that, we’re rolling toward the end of October already! Time really does fly when you’re moving forward (pun intended). This month at Forward Motion Freedom, our focus has been all about uniqueness and consistency, two words that might sound simple, but when combined, can create some truly profound results.
So here it is, an easy, simple, but sneakily powerful 7-day plan to keep you going strong, stay consistent, and get a little boost as we glide into the grand finale of 2025. And speaking of finales, our closing focus for the year is balance.
Now, I don’t just mean standing on one leg like a flamingo or walking a fence without landing in a fresh cow pat (although, if you manage that, impressive!). I’m talking about balance in life, between rest and action, giving and receiving, dreaming and doing. It’s a big, juicy topic, but absolutely essential as we prepare to step into 2026, and yes, pun intended. let’s get you started on the right foot! 👣
________________________________________
Day 1: Meet Your Unique Self
Discover how your life story shapes your body, energy, and patterns.
Challenge: Take 5 minutes to write or reflect on one experience that has shaped your body or wellbeing. Notice how your journey is unlike anyone else’s.
________________________________________
Day 2: Understand Your Body’s Language
Your aches, pains, and blocks are messages unique to you and your history.
Challenge: Tune into your body today. Where do you feel tension or discomfort? Ask yourself: what might this be telling me about my journey?
________________________________________
Day 3: Honor Your Individual Rhythm
There’s no “right” pace, your progress is your own.
Challenge: Notice your natural rhythm today, when do you feel most energized? When do you need rest? Commit to honouring these signals instead of pushing against them.
________________________________________
Day 4: Consistency Beats Intensity
Small, steady steps create lasting change.
Challenge: Choose one small action (breathing practice, gentle stretch, gratitude) you can do daily this week. Consistency matters more than perfection.
________________________________________
Day 5: Your Uniqueness + My Uniqueness = Your Healing Recipe
Healing is a co-creative process tailored just for you.
Challenge: Reflect on what support you might need on your journey. How would it feel to have a guide who honours your whole self, body, energy, heart, and soul?
________________________________________
Day 6: Release What No Longer Serves
Letting go makes room for growth.
Challenge: Identify one old belief or pattern you’re ready to release. Write it down and imagine setting it free, physically, mentally, or energetically.
________________________________________
Day 7: Commit to Moving Forward, Your Way
Forward motion isn’t always linear, it’s uniquely yours.
Challenge: Declare one commitment to yourself this month, something that supports your journey in a way that feels true to you. Share it if you feel called.
________________________________________
And to wrap it all up...
If this week’s little journey has got you thinking, feeling, or even giggling a bit, perfect! That’s the whole idea. Remember, progress doesn’t have to be dramatic; it just has to be consistent.
If you’re curious about exploring your next step, balancing all the beautiful parts of your life, or simply remembering your best possible self, I’d love to support you at Forward Motion Freedom.
📞 Call or SMS 0431 997 806 to book a session of your choosing. let’s keep that forward motion rolling (without any fence-top tumbles this time)!

UNDERSTANDING SPINAL FLOW TECHNIQUE.
ONE OF A KIND MONTH @ forward motion freedom, celebrates uniqueness by being the only local practice to offer SFT.

Welcome to the Transformative Power of Spinal Flow Technique (SFT)
I’m excited you have chosen to tap into your body's incredible ability to heal and thrive. The Spinal Flow Technique (SFT) is designed to support you on a journey towards optimal wellness, function and vitality. This gentle yet profound healing modality works with the very foundation of your body, the spine and nervous system, unlocking the flow of energy and messages to every cell, tissue, organ, and system. When this flow is blocked or disrupted, it can lead to discomfort, pain, and imbalance and may eventually lead to illness and disease. When this foundation is restored, your body can experience amazing transformations.
What is Spinal Flow?
The Spinal Flow Technique is based on the science of your body’s master control system: the brain, spinal cord, and nervous system, which govern your entire being. These essential parts of your body send messages up and down the spine, connecting to every system, organ, every part of you. When there’s a blockage or disruption in this flow, due to physical, emotional, or chemical stress, the results can be felt as pain, discomfort, and a reduced sense of well-being.
SFT is here to support you in moving from a ‘stress zone’ to a ‘healing zone.’ This transformative technique gently restores the natural alignment of the spine and encourages the body’s innate ability to heal itself.
How Does Spinal Flow Work?
Your body is constantly bombarded by stressors, physical, emotional, and chemical, that can cause blockages in the spine and disrupt the flow of energy and messaging. Over time, these blockages can accumulate, leading to discomfort or dysfunction. Here's the exciting news: your body’s innate intelligence has an amazing capacity to heal itself! Through gentle touch, SFT practitioners activate specific access points in the sacral area and cranium, stimulating the dura mater (the protective layer around your spinal cord) and triggering a unique spinal wave. This wave increases ease and flexibility, allowing your body to release blockages, restore function, and enhance overall well-being. Each individuals spinal wave is unique and your wave may change in nature and intensity from session to session.
During your session, you may feel still or experience movement, make sounds, or feel deeply relaxed, trust your body to do what it needs! Everyone’s healing journey is different, and some days you might feel amazing, while other days you might experience temporary discomfort as your body releases what no longer serves you. Whatever your experience, know that it’s all part of the process.
The Benefits of Spinal Flow
The wonderful thing about SFT is that it can have profound effects on a wide range of physical and emotional conditions. Clients report improvements in areas such as:
Anxiety & Depression
Thyroid imbalances
Aches, pains & stiffness
Improved movement and flexibility
Faster recovery from stress or physical exertion
Better sleep and reduced insomnia
Headaches, migraines, and fatigue
Digestive issues and reflux
Back pain & fibromyalgia
Urinary and bowel issues
Reproductive health
And so much more!
It will be different for everyone
How Long Will Healing Take?
Each person’s healing journey is unique! Some people notice immediate improvements, while others may take longer, especially if they've had long-standing health challenges. Children often respond quickly, while adults with chronic conditions might experience a more gradual process.
SFT is not just about relieving symptoms, it’s about getting to the core of the issue and this may take time, it’s about supporting you in maintaining a high standard of health. Just like brushing your teeth or eating nourishing foods, regular check-ins with Spinal Flow care can help you maintain harmony, balance, ease, and well-being in body, heart and mind.
The Three Stages of Spinal Flow Care
Initial Intensive Care:
This is where many people begin their journey. In this phase, we focus on reducing or eliminating your most obvious symptoms, which may require frequent sessions depending on the severity of your condition.
Corrective Care:
Once your main symptoms diminish, the focus shifts to stabilizing spinal function and promoting long-term healing.
Wellness Care:
This is the maintenance phase, where clients continue to benefit from regular Spinal Flow care to keep minor issues from escalating. This phase supports you in living a vibrant, healthy, and balanced life, fully embracing your body’s miraculous ability to heal.
Personalized Support for Your Healing
Your SFT sessions are tailored specifically to you. We work together to find the best schedule for your needs, whether it’s intensive care, regular check-ups, or wellness maintenance.
Every healing process is unique, and your response to each session may vary. Trust that your body knows exactly what it needs!
FORWARD MOTION FREEDOM supporting you in becoming the best possible you.
