What Is Spinal Energetics?

Spinal Energetics is a gentle yet powerful somatic modality that works with the spine, nervous system, and subtle energetic patterns that shape how we feel, move, and relate to the world. Developed by Dr. Sarah Jane Perri, it blends Eastern energetic principles with Western understandings of physiology and psychology to support the body’s natural ability to self-organise, release tension, and return to balance.

We recommend that you have a free 20-minute discovery call with Lindsey before your session so you have the opportunity to discuss specifics before your session. You can book this on our ‘book’ page.

How It Works

During a session, the practitioner uses light touch and non-contact techniques to interact with the body’s energetic field and physical structure. This guidance invites your system to respond naturally through spontaneous movement, shifts in posture, changes in breath, emotional release, or waves of energy moving through the body.

Nothing is forced.
Nothing is “done to you.”
Instead, your body leads the process.

The practitioner simply creates the space for your system to unwind, regulate, and reorganise itself in the way it most needs.

Why It Matters

We don’t just store life’s experiences in our minds we store them in our tissues, fascia, breath, and nervous system. Over time, stress, emotional protection patterns, and unresolved experiences can become “held” within the spine and body, showing up as:

  • Physical tension or pain

  • Nervous system dysregulation

  • Emotional overwhelm

  • Feeling disconnected or stuck

Spinal Energetics helps release these patterned layers, restoring flow, spaciousness, and coherence across the system.

What You May Experience

Each session is unique to you and your body. Clients often report:

  • Deep nervous system relaxation

  • Emotional release or softening

  • Increased energy or lightness

  • Relief from tension or pain

  • Greater clarity, presence, and inner connection

Responses range from very subtle to more dynamic. All are normal and welcomed.

Who It’s For

Spinal Energetics is for anyone seeking deeper healing, whether physical, emotional, or energetic. It can be supportive if you:

  • Feel stuck in patterns of tension or stress

  • Want to regulate your nervous system

  • Are seeking a more holistic or embodied approach

  • Are ready to release what no longer serves you

  • Want to reconnect to your body’s innate wisdom

This modality meets you exactly where you are and gently guides you toward where your system is ready to go. This isn’t about fixing you because you don’t need ‘fixed’. This is about revealing you.
