Feeling sluggish? Has your energy vanished? You’re not alone. Many people experience low energy. Spinal energetics offers a holistic approach to regaining vitality. It is a deeper approach that addresses the root causes of low energy rather than offering quick fixes.
Spinal energetics is a holistic practice that views the body as an interconnected energy system. It releases tension, resistance, and emotional patterns from the spine and its energetic field. This restores the natural flow of energy throughout your body.

Understanding Spinal Energetics
Spinal energetics combines Eastern and Western thought. It was developed by Dr. Sarah Jane, a chiropractor and counsellor Dr. Sarah, to help people access their body’s innate wisdom and innate intelligence. Visit the Dr Sarah Jane website for additional details.
How Does Spinal Energetics Work?
This approach recognizes that tension, stress, and emotional baggage are stored in the body. The spine, as our central channel, carries much of this burden. Spinal energetics uses light touch, breathwork, and movement to restore organic flow. The goal is to support deep relaxation and release stored tension. The individual’s energy then can begin its natural flow once more.
It gently guides your body toward deep self-awareness and releases energy blockages.
What Happens During a Spinal Energetics Session?
Sessions begin with a discussion about your physical and emotional history. This discussion enables the practitioner to tailor the spinal energetics experience to your needs.
You then lie down as the practitioner uses light touch. This activates your body’s healing response and energy flow. The session helps people soften and/or strengthen what is needed to help their body with self regulation.
Some people experience subtle sensations, involuntary movements, or emotional releases. This occurs as stored tension unwinds. There may be a cathartic release as well. Sessions involve touch, movement, and breathing practices and there are usually alpha alignments that happen as well. Practitioners locate blockages in or near a person’s spine to help optimize energy flow.
My first spinal energetics experience was in a Surry Hills yoga studio. As tension released, emotions surfaced, which felt unusual. Some practitioners even incorporate acupuncture, sometimes esoteric acupuncture, into sessions. Over time, I’ve learned each session focuses on your body’s specific needs.
The Benefits of Spinal Energetics
Spinal energetics involves releasing tension, restoring energy flow and activating certain parts of the spine. What does that offer?
The process helps rebalance the nervous system. For many, this leads to less pain, improved sleep, and an overall sense of grounding and relaxation.
More Than Just Relaxation
Spinal energetics benefits extend beyond physical relaxation to encompass numerous aspects of well-being:
- Improved Mobility: Regain ease of movement.
- Reduced Stress & Anxiety: Calm the nervous system.
- Deeper Self-Awareness: Connect with your intuition.
- Greater Sense of Well-being: Enhance your physical, mental, and emotional health.
Some experience significant improvement in chronic pain and tension patterns. Others experience increased vitality. Many report a stronger sense of inner connection and integration.
The goal is to help a person realize what their best homeostasis can look like without the need for drugs or prescriptions. The intention of spinal energetics is for clients to develop a lifestyle from the wisdom they learn from each spinal energetics experience and spinal energetics session. Ideally this allows them to maintain this same level of healing by themselves as they continue practicing what is needed.
Finding a Spinal Energetics Practitioner
If you’re interested in exploring spinal energetics, finding a qualified practitioner is crucial. Practitioners’ qualifications vary since this field blends different methods.
Dr. Sarah Jane, the founder of spinal energetics, trains practitioners. If her approach resonates with you, seek a practitioner trained by her. However, there is always the path to choose from others with differing skillsets as there may be things from certain approaches that seem compelling enough to try.
Spinal Energetics and Other Holistic Practices
Spinal energetics complements several other wellness activities:
- Yoga: Combined with yoga’s gentle stretches and sometimes dance moves to enhance chronic pain recovery, these sessions also involve trauma release. Together they help restore the organic flow of energy.
- Meditation: Meditation emphasizes present moment awareness, which can deepen your inner connection and support deep self-awareness.
- Other Energy Healing Practices: Practices such as Reiki, craniosacral therapy, and Network Spinal Analysis often support the benefits of spinal energetics.
- Breathwork: Conscious breathing can further amplify the unwinding of tension patterns and energy flow facilitated by spinal energetics.
- Transpersonal Psychotherapy: Combining spinal energetics with transpersonal psychotherapy can facilitate profound emotional release and support deep personal transformation.
- Kundalini Activation Process: The synergy between spinal energetics and the kundalini activation process can potentially intensify energy flow and spiritual awakening. For the uninitiated, it is worth remembering that KAP stands for kundalini activation process.
- Chinese Medicine: Integrating principles of Chinese medicine with spinal energetics, such as the use of acupuncture or acupressure, can further enhance the balancing of energy meridians and overall well-being. Acupuncture uses meridians to understand the body’s energy centers and works synergistically with the individual’s energy field during spinal energetics.
The appropriate approach addresses physical, mental, and emotional well-being for overall wellness.
Conclusion
Spinal energetics offers a unique path to increased energy and balance. It’s a holistic method focusing on gentle touch, breathwork, and movement to restore energy flow.
Unlike traditional physical therapy, spinal energetics addresses the energetic root of issues. It’s a powerful touch that aims to address an individual’s energy blockages. The techniques in spinal energetics may help provide a cathartic release which helps release any remaining energy stored from past experiences that is blocking healing.
If conventional approaches haven’t worked, spinal energetics provides another tool for managing life, emotions, and pain. It considers your physical, mental, and emotional well-being and focuses on energy flow using touch, light, and sound. It involves light touch by the practitioner. The sessions sometimes progress with different sounds or language healing being implemented during certain points within a session as the practitioner supports healing.
During the session a person may breathe deeply as they feel certain involuntary movement happening in different energy layers that also triggers the extroverted expressed experience, whether it be felt, expressed, or some form of the other.
