How Spinal Energetics Answers What Traditional Therapy Cannot
Traditional talking and mental health therapies are excellent modalities for bringing our patterns our histories, our “stuff” into awareness, but then what?
The conscious mind, and language, can only take us so far.
Spinal Energetics supports processing what the conscious mind can’t or won’t say, or even acknowledge.
And the beauty of this process is that we don’t have to mentally or verbally understand what’s happening on the table. It simply is what it is and the work is done.
Spinal Energetics is a somatic, nervous system, embodiment, grounding and consciousness expanding practice all at once.
From Spinal Energetics official:
“The technique integrates Western understandings of the nervous system, particularly polyvagal theory, somatic processing and trauma response patterns with Eastern frameworks that recognise the body as an intelligent, responsive system capable of self-correction when given the right conditions.
Sessions involve a gentle interface with the spine and surrounding field, using light touch or no physical contact at all. Rather than guiding the client through prescribed movements, Spinal Energetics allows the body to respond reflexively, often through subtle or spontaneous shifts such as muscular twitches, postural releases, vocalisations or breath changes. These responses are viewed as the system processing and integrating underlying tension or stored emotional material.
The process is non-invasive, non-verbal and highly adaptive. It can be used as a stand-alone approach or in conjunction with talk therapy, EMDR, bodywork or medical care, particularly where the client may struggle to articulate their experience but their body continues to “speak” through symptoms, resistance or energetic overwhelm.”
Here’s what one Spinal Energetics client had to say after her session with me:
“My session with Jaime was deeply healing on a profound level. I felt my body releasing beliefs and programs that had kept me stuck in self-judgment—judgments about feeling ugly, fat, and not enough. As the energy moved through me, I could feel those old narratives dissolving, making space for self-acceptance, love, and truth. Jaime held such a safe and supportive space, allowing my body to express and release what it needed. I left the session feeling not only lighter and more at peace but also more connected to my power and sovereignty. It was a true reclamation of myself. I know that my body and mind will continue to integrate this healing over the coming weeks, deepening the transformation that began in our session. Thank you, Jaime, for this beautiful experience—I am so grateful.”
