Leanda Ward-Cox
My name is Leanda Ward-Cox, founder of Ever Present Spinal Flow.
I am a retired practical nurse, caregiver, mother, grandmother, and Spinal Flow practitioner with a deep passion for helping people reconnect with their bodies and themselves in a gentle, supportive way.
Over the years I have worked in long-term care, community care, palliative care, wound care, and private caregiving, supporting people through many different stages of life and health challenges. Through that journey, I came to understand how deeply stress, life experiences, emotions, and overwhelm can affect the body and nervous system.
My work today focuses on gentle touch and nervous-system support through Spinal Flow. I do not see myself as a healer, but rather as someone who helps create a safe space for the body to settle, reconnect, and remember its own ability to heal and restore balance.
I believe healing can happen through kindness, presence, listening, community, touch, laughter, stillness, and feeling truly seen.
It is an honour to be invited into spaces where people come together to support one another through wellness, culture, connection, and shared human experience. I am grateful for the opportunity to participate in Healing Week and walk alongside others in a respectful and heartfelt way.
