Spinal Energetics

What is Spinal Energetics?

Spinal Energetics (level 1 and 2) is a holistic modality developed by Chiropractor and Counsellor Dr Sarah Jane. This practice combines Eastern wisdom and Western sciences to interact with a person’s spine, nervous system and energetic field. This approach taps into the innate wisdom and natural healing abilities that reside within each of us. It recognizes people as energetic beings made up of physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and ancestral layers. Shaped by life experiences, stories and patterns.

Using gentle touch or no-touch techniques, it encourages natural movements, and, together with sound, the process begins to shift, unwind, and release tension, resistance, emotions, and stories stored in the body. Be it from adulthood/childhood/womb/conception or inherited from ancestors. Spinal Energetics works solely with your body and energy, empowering your natural healing process without drawing on external energy. All this happens without requiring the client to relive or remember the trauma. Our bodies store trauma physically, but trauma is also stored in our energy fields. Spinal Energetics addresses all of them during any given session.

The body will naturally unwind in its own way. This makes each client’s experience unique for them. Some may have the urge to move and stretch their body as tension unwinds. Others might experience a more emotional release or feel deeply connected to their body and energy. The body’s innate wisdom knows what to do. This modality is created to bring safety to the body. The more you show up for your body, the more your body feels safe in the world.

“Spinal Energetics is not something we ‘do’ to a client, it is a practice of collaboration to cultivate and support deep self-awareness in our clients to help them soften and/or strengthen patterns of resistance that may be preventing well-being from flowing through them.”

Each person’s response to the treatment is unique. Some people move more than others, while some don’t move at all. How much a person moves or feels during a session does not directly correlate to the amount of depth or benefits a person may receive during a session.

Experiences are as unique as each individual. Common responses may include:

  • Emotional release – crying, laughing
  • Energetic sensations – heat, cold, tingling, twitching
  • Spontaneous movements – stretching, shaking, yoga like poses
  • Sound release
  • Seeing visuals
  • Resistance
  • Sense of calm and peace

If you are new to energy and/or body work, it may take several sessions to truly feel and experience some of the above-mentioned responses. Consistent sessions, along with breath work and other practices, can be of support.

Level 1 sessions are the foundational first step – designed to help clients release built-up tension, trauma, and protective holding patterns from the body and nervous system. This work creates stability, restoring a baseline sense of safety and flow within the system.

Level 2 builds on this foundation, moving from processing to integration. Clients begin to connect more deeply with their ancestral story, receive insights, vision their future, and embody their wholeness. The work becomes less about what needs to leave/release and more about what’s ready to emerge.

Both levels offer a complete journey, from clearing the past to consciously creating what’s next.
