What is Spinal Energetics?

Spinal Energetics is a somatic healing modality developed by Dr. Sarah Jane that combines Eastern and Western practices to help your body unlock its natural healing and growth capabilities. It works with your nervous system to facilitate the release of stored tension, trauma, and energetic blockages.

How does Spinal Energetics work?

Spinal Energetics works by gently activating your body's innate healing intelligence through light touch and energetic connection. This allows your nervous system to naturally release stored patterns, tension, and trauma that may be holding you back from optimal wellbeing.

What can Spinal Energetics help with?

Spinal Energetics can assist with healing trauma, regulating anxiety, gaining clarity, finding purpose, unlocking potential, discovering intuition, processing emotional blockages, alleviating stress, and creating positive movement in your life. It addresses both physical and emotional aspects of healing.

Is Spinal Energetics safe?

Yes, Spinal Energetics is a gentle, non-invasive modality that works with your body's natural healing processes. However, there are some contraindications including recent injuries, uncontrolled high blood pressure, cardiovascular conditions, epilepsy, severe psychiatric conditions, and first or third trimester pregnancy.
