How Your Body Holds Trauma: Spinal Flow Practitioner Kayla on Somatic Healing

Kayla is a licensed massage therapist and spinal flow practitioner who specializes in helping people release trauma stored deep in their bodies. But her journey didn't start in the wellness space... it started as a lifeguard at the YMCA, teaching herself yoga, and eventually discovering that our bodies hold layers of trauma we don't even realize are there.

In this conversation, Kayla breaks down what spinal flow technique actually is and how it accesses the three types of blockages in our body: physical, chemical, and emotional. We talk about why our hips hold so much emotion, how the nervous system communicates through cerebrospinal fluid, and what it looks like when someone's body finally releases what it's been holding onto.

Kayla also shares a powerful story about doing a heart-opening spinal flow session, watching someone's body express and move in ways that helped them process years of stored emotion. This is about more than massage. It's about creating space for the body to heal itself.

We also dive into the shift from growing up in traditional religion to discovering Ayurveda, Buddhism, and the Vedas, and why these ancient practices feel like they're finally being validated by Western medicine.
