You'll have the chance to practice alongside your fellow students, creating a shared and synergistic energy within the group learning environment. This experiential practice allows you to not only learn but also start to attune yourself to the collective energy, enhancing the overall depth of your learning experience.

As your journey unfolds, we plunge even deeper into the distinctive aspects that set Spinal Energetics apart. We’ll learn more about Processes and receive specific training and feedback to discover an advanced repertoire of signature Spinal Energetics skills and techniques to help you guide clients.
Additionally, we dedicate time to address crucial aspects such as professional boundaries and contraindications. This ensures that you are not only well-versed in the techniques but also equipped with the knowledge to work safely and responsibly with clients beyond the scope of our learning environment.
By the time day three arrives, you will have not only expanded your skillset but also developed meaningful connections within your group and, you’ll be feeling very much a part of the community.

In the final phase of the course, we conduct comprehensive revision of all the content you've explored during the initial three days, ensuring a thorough understanding.
We will also guide you on the art of structuring a complete session, including sharing effective opening and closing techniques when working with clients. Following this, ample time is allocated for supported practice, during which you'll collaborate with your classmates to consolidate your newfound knowledge.
As the course concludes, you will have the opportunity to showcase your skills and the knowledge you've acquired within small groups, under the supervision of our dedicated teaching team. This assessment phase will prepare you for the final exam and certification requirements, ensuring you are well-prepared to receive your certificate upon successful completion of the program.

Rene Nevarez, DC, QME, OT-C, OPE-SC
I am a lead clinician and surgically certified, orthopedic physician extender, in an orthopedic clinic in Los Angeles. I work with patients who have had traumatic injuries, mostly work-related. I have one patient who suffered an injury to her right shoulder and could not perform any range of motion without severe pain. Unfortunately, due to her pain symptoms, she refused to participate in physical therapy. I reviewed her MRI and found no evidence of mechanical injury, torn tendons or ligaments, fracture, or dislocation. I then offered a short SE session, as she had expressed that she was open to alternative and holistic options. After one 30-minute session, she was able to move her shoulder to about 85% of the normal range. She mentioned to me that she realized that she was holding the memory of the injury as it was extremely traumatic, and subsequently found a release from that memory after our session. On the following visit, 6 weeks later, she reported that she was able to fully participate in the physical therapy sessions for her shoulder, and her pain symptoms had significantly improved. Upon re-evaluation, I found full, active pain-free motion of her shoulder! I continued to follow her for approximately 4 months and I am happy to say that her pain did not return and she was able to be released from care, without any invasive treatment procedures.

Understanding Spinal Energetics in Nursing Practice Spinal Energetics is a modality that brings immense joy to my practice as a nurse practitioner. Early in my nursing career, I committed to a mission focused on helping others prevent illness and guiding them through their health challenges with a holistic approach. As I navigated traditional medical care, I noticed that there was a missing piece.
My exploration into functional medicine and Reiki opened my viewpoint, revealing how energy and frequency can affect health, thoughts, and beliefs. During healing sessions, I observed that movement was possible, leading me to discover Spinal Energetics. The expertise and knowledge that Dr. Sarah provided allowed me to confidently incorporate Spinal Energetics into my practice.

Diane Baldemor, Pelvic Health therapist
My experience at the Level 1 Spinal Energetics Course in LA was truly transformative. The setting was ideal—peaceful and inviting, creating the perfect environment for learning. The smaller class size allowed for rich interaction with the instructors and plenty of hands-on practice, which really helped solidify the concepts.
The course was structured with ease and flow, and the instructors were not only knowledgeable but deeply caring, ensuring that we had the time and support needed to succeed. I’m excited to integrate these techniques into my pelvic health practice, as they will undoubtedly enhance the care I provide.
It was also incredibly rewarding to join a like-minded community that shares my values and passion for a more holistic approach to healing. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to deepen their practice in this way. I am truly grateful to have been chosen to learn this modality.

Jeannie Dhun, Manual Osteopath
I have been in the Health care field for over 20 years as a Nurse and within the field of Osteopathy. Having in depth experience in both worlds allowed me to view health, healing and trauma from varying lens' but there was something still not quite addressed that I couldn't quite pinpoint. Reiki and Osteopathy introduced me to an energetic force both within and around the field of the body which was what started my journey towards a need to know more.
In comes Spinal Energetics! I was completely drawn into what was happening the very first time I saw a demo online. I needed to know more, I somehow just knew this was one of the missing links in my practice.
Learning and experiencing Spinal Energetics far surpassed any expectations I could have set out. My very first experience was impactful to say the least. During the session there was not much happening externally but noticed some involuntary movement of my abdomen towards the left internally; I felt very much at peace afterwards; the next day I awoke the entire left side of my body was swollen including the left side of my tongue but I was not panicked - I knew this was a part of my integration process- within 24 hours all those symptoms disappeared and I felt fantastic. That edgy feeling I had for months prior was eased, I was able to think more clearly and things around me were more defined; colors were brighter and shapes were sharper. This solidified my yearning to learn what Spinal Energetics could offer me and my clients.
Fast forward 18 months later - there is not one session that I do that does not have an element of Spinal Energetics in it. I can honestly say that it has changed the lives of my clients in ways we could not have imagined. It has been life changing in some way, big and small for anyone that has experienced it. It is an integral part of my practice.

Lulu Z. Liao, LPC, SEP, E-RYT
As a trauma therapist with extensive experience in many holistic & somatic healing modalities, I’ve worked with countless individuals, each with their own unique presentation of emotional pain. As there are so many complexities of trauma presentation, not all techniques resonate with everyone, and it’s often a challenge to find the right approach that truly unlocks healing for the client.
Spinal Energetics, however, stands out as one of the most revolutionary, profound and transformative methods I’ve encountered. This modality doesn’t just scratch the surface—it dives deep into the energetic roots of trauma, working with physical, emotional, mental, spiritual layers of healing —creating a space for healing that I've rarely seen elsewhere. Oftentimes holistic approaches can feel too esoteric or unconventional for the masses, but Spinal Energetics is a beautiful blend between something that feels intuitive yet is grounded in concrete, practical, and pragmatic principles. What sets Spinal Energetics apart is not only the masterful integration of both Eastern and Western philosophies—but also the fun and playful way that Dr. Sarah Jane and her team teach and hold space. Their approach fosters a lightness that allows even the heaviest emotions to surface in a safe, supportive environment, making the learning process feel less like trauma work, but more like an enlightening, expansive journey.
As a trauma therapist, my primary goal is to help clients find safety - in particular, safety in the body. Trauma is anything that is too much, too fast, or too soon and that includes the trendy quick-fix modalities that claim to heal by rushing the client to re-experience traumatic material too quickly. This is deeply retraumatizing. Spinal Energetics facilitates gentle integration of traumatic experiences, empowering clients to reconnect with their bodies while feeling secure throughout the healing process. It allows the body to move, process, and release in ways that feel safe, natural, and deeply nurturing.
If you're a practitioner looking to expand your toolkit, or a seeker of deeper healing for yourself, I cannot recommend Spinal Energetics enough. It’s not just a method of treatment—it’s a beautiful dance of energy, awareness, and release. Thank you Sarah Jane for creating this beautiful masterpiece!

Tanya Elise
Spinal Energetics has truly changed every part of my life. It’s like I’ve been given a new pair of glasses that allows me to see the world and myself in ways I never entertained before. It’s strengthened my connection to my body, my mind, emotions, and my intuition, helping me trust those gut feelings that I might have ignored before. This practice hasn’t just influenced my work life —it’s completely enhanced how I live, think, and feel. It’s given me the tools to navigate life with more clarity and connection and has made me approach each day with greater intention and awareness.
For me, Spinal Energetics stands out by uniquely integrating Eastern and Western health approaches, addressing the physical, emotional, mental, energetic, and spiritual aspects of an individual’s well-being. It honours the Western understanding of the spine’s structural and nervous system roles while embracing Eastern traditions that see the spine as the central energy channel. This practice goes beyond just the physical, working within the client’s energetic field using a combination of hands-on techniques, subtle off-body movements, and vocal sounds to clear stagnant energies and restore balance.
What truly sets Spinal Energetics apart is its ability to help you reconnect with your body and senses. It creates a space to feel your breath, notice your heartbeat, tap into your unexpressed emotions, and reconnect back to your own internal compass. Instead of getting lost in daily routines, you begin to experience your emotions more deeply and trust your intuition. This process brings you back to yourself, feeling more grounded, self-connected, and aligned with your truth.
