Spinal Energetics
Spinal Energetics is a practice that combines Eastern and Western philosophies, to interact with a person’s spine, nervous system, and energetic field. Through the process it helps a person connect to their body’s own innate wisdom of healing. Each living being is not just a physical form, but also a being of energy. Energy encompasses each of our aspects; physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and soul. This is woven together with our ancestry, life experiences, stories, belief systems, and personality. Through light yet powerful touch (and often no touch), an organic flow of movement and sound begins to shift, unwind, discover, and release tension, resistance, and past traumas that have been stored in the body.
Who Can Benefit From this?
Just about anyone!
Spinal Energetics can help with stress, anxiety, depression, headaches, stomach pains, digestive issues, irregular moods, jaw clenching, low libido, muscle tension, chronic fatigue, aches and pains, autoimmune disorders, obsessive thinking, poor energy levels, feeling reactive, feeling stuck, repetitive patterns, and disconnection from your true self.
Why? Because these are all signs of an overactive sympathetic nervous system. It is so easy in this day and age for the nervous system to feel overworked and burdened, which contributes to a sense of non-safety. There are many ways to help ease the nervous system and Spinal Energetics is a safe and gentle way to take care of your body and help release trauma imprints, unprocessed emotions, and physical tension.
