Book Your Spinal Energetic Session
Spinal Energetics is a somatic practice that helps release tension in your
physical body as well as your subtle bodies.
What is spinal energetics?
Spinal Energetics is a somatic process that helps you process unresolved emotions, experiences and work through patterns that are preventing you from feeling like the most authentic version of yourself.
It goes beyond your physical body to address where patterns of tension are being communicated within the nervous system.
The nervous system is the connection between your mind, emotions, beliefs and your physical body. When there is signals coming into the nervous system that tell it to be in a sympathetic state (fight or flight) constantly your physical body may experience unexplained pain, dis-ease, auto immune disorder, psycho emotional disorders, as well as other indications of break down within the body.
This is not a "one and done" kind of experience.
You are retraining your nervous system and other bodies to feel comfortable being at rest, feeling that it is finally a safe environment to heal, and getting out of patterns that have sometime been running for years or even decades.
Once you start to realize what true rest, healing and expansiveness feels like you'll want to keep going.
Sessions are often recommended closer together in the beginning and as the nervous system comes more into balance the sessions will start being spread out.
What to expect
Pre Session
You really don't need to "do" much. This is a process where you tap into your innate healing wisdom, so just like you don't tell your heart to beat or intestines to digest, you don't need to prepare the body to do what it innately knows, however....
I recommend not having much on your plate for the rest of the day that might be stressful.
You could also come with an intention of what you would like to work through or what you are currently experiencing, but it's not necessary to know what you're working through in order for your body to work through what is most necessary for you right now.
During session
Everyone's experience is different but this is a somatic practice, so connecting the mind and body to feel safe and present.
You may notice change in body temperature, movement or shaking of the body as it release, crying, changing in breath, the desire to make noises.
You may feel a desire to move (kind of like an urge to stretch) and this is a sign that your body is trying to release a pattern of tension, so feel free to move.
It might look something like a yoga pose, a stretch, or a bit of shaking. All are perfectly normal.
You may also experience a deep relaxation and not much externally. All is valid.
Post session
My clients often say things like...
I just feel lighter, in a better mood.
I have clarity and motivation that I didn't have in months.
My body feels so much less tight.
The tension feels like it melted away from my neck.
My pain has almost vanished.
The range is wide but when you allow your body to have a safe space to process life experiences, things can change physically, emotionally and energetically..
Be kind with yourself post session. The residue of the experience can last for 72 hours.
