It's all about your nervous system.
The nervous system is the human operating system; it controls every function of your body. It determines how your muscles hold your bones and joints. It controls your digestion. It governs every organ and system in your body. It controls how you perceive and behave in world. You experience your whole life through the lens of your nervous system!
​
The communication of energy and information in the nervous system determines whether we view life as an "adventure" or as "stress". It determines whether something is seen as an obstacle, a challenge, or a gift.
​
Your body is intelligent - it is always adapting and moving towards life and health. When we have a baseline of ease in the nervous system there is a free flow of energy and information that enables us to respond to life with energy and creativity.
​
But then life happens... we experience stress. Stress creates tension in the nervous system and disconnects us from our body's innate ability to heal and thrive.
The shape, position, tension, and tone of your spine determines the shape, position, tension, and tone of your life. -Dr. Donny Epstein, creator of Network Spinal
​
We experience this disconnection as dis-ease. Everything from pain, body aches, headaches, to anxiety, depression, and stress. We become disconnected from the ease, energy, connection, focus, playfulness and presence that we are all capable of.
​
We have these symptoms not because our body is broken, but because it's smart! These symptoms aren't the problem - they're the "check engine light" that tells us there is something in our lives we need to change. It's that stress that brought you here, today. With Network Spinal we release the stored tension, improve the flow of energy and information in your nervous system, and develop more resourcefulness for working out the kinks in your body and your life.

Somato-Respiratory Integration (SRI)
Network Spinal care incorporates Somato-Respiratory Integration (SRI), a series of focused breath and positioning exercises to promote enhanced awareness of the body, emotions, and different conscious states. These exercises dissipate stored tension which fuels the body's healing process.
Network Spinal care utilizes specific, gentle contacts to the spine that cue the brain to create new wellness promoting strategies.
​
These gentle contacts, like tuning an instrument, assist the brain to connect more effectively with the spine and the body. As it becomes more coherent the body develops a unique wave-like movement and breathing pattern that activate your body's own self-regulatory ability to detect areas of stored up tension and release it. This allows for greater ease and energy in your body and life.
​
Care is progressive and sustainable because every session your body is learning new strategies for more efficient self-healing. As you move through care your body learns how to self-correct as your spine upgrades the "operating system" of your nervous system.
​
Your body is the vehicle through which you live your life. Your ability to feel alive, healthy, and have a rich experience of life is governed by your nervous system's ability to interpret energy and information. When this becomes highly energized and efficient, everything you do becomes highly energized and efficient.
