What makes Life Gate unique?

1. Flow

Here at Life Gate, we use a specific form of adjustment that utilizes light touches along specific areas of the spine cueing the body to release tension.

The result is remarkable as one experiences a shift from one of stress and defense posture to one of ease and growth.

This allows one to discover greater health, harmony, and wellbeing at the physical, mental, and emotional levels.


2. Balance

Stress is part of life, but there can be huge differences in how one person, versus another responds to stress. Ideally, after a stressful event we go back into recovery mode, which is

important for our overall health. When we are at the high end of stress, like a flight/fight/freeze situation, all of our energy goes to the muscles to take action and protect us. When we are at the other end of stress, meaning no stress, all of the energy of the body is going to our internal organs, digesting food, healing injuries, and boosting our immune system.

In today’s world, many people’s bodies respond to stresses such as paying bills, work that they do not enjoy, family, etc. as if these are life or death stresses. The healthier the nervous system, the more it will respond appropriately. Most people who receive Flow notice that while they still have stresses in their life, they are better able to handle them. Often they are better equipped to deal with situations and people, and notice they are more efficient. In addition their overall health improves.

3. Unique Difference

What makes this approach unique is the direct communication that happens neurologically which allows for tension to release.  Often, two to five touches, made in less than 5 minutes can bring substantial change.  In addition, the goal is not to fix, or change anyone. We see the perfection of the person and their body, without judgement.  The purpose with Flow is to connect through a light touch, and let the nervous system, the body decide what it wants to do next.  For many people this can be a shift which leads to symptom relief, but that is not the primary purpose, because removal of pain, is not always a sign of improved health.  What is more important is the body learning to respond in the most appropriate manner to it’s environment. We are allowing the body the opportunity to make changes from within, which is more empowering than trying to force something to change when it is not ready.
