If you are living with ongoing pain, tension, stress or exhaustion, your body may be telling you that it needs more than another temporary fix.

Perhaps you are experiencing back, neck or shoulder pain, sciatica, headaches, poor sleep, digestive or breathing difficulties, fatigue, anxiety or changes in your posture. Although these concerns may appear in different parts of the body, they do not always exist in isolation.

Physical injury, prolonged sitting, environmental and chemical stress, emotional trauma and the pressure of constantly being “on” can all contribute to patterns of tension held through the spine and nervous system. Over time, this may affect the way your body moves, breathes, rests and regulates itself.

Vanita is the founder of FlowEssence Holistic Hub and a Spinal Flow Technique practitioner. She also offers Breathwork, HeartMath coaching and Reiki. Her work focuses on helping people release accumulated stress, reconnect with their body and create the conditions it needs to heal.

She holds regular holistic wellbeing classes at the Centre called 

Spinal Flow Technique

Spinal Flow is based on a powerful principle: your body has an innate intelligence and capacity to heal.

Rather than forcing, manipulating or trying to “fix” the body from the outside, Spinal Flow works with the spine and nervous system to help awaken this natural healing ability.

Physical, chemical and emotional stresses can create areas of tension, restriction and disconnection within the body. Using light contact at specific access points along the spine, Spinal Flow helps the nervous system connect with areas of greater ease. This invites the body to recognise and begin releasing the stress patterns it has been carrying.

Spinal Flow does not treat each condition in isolation. It looks at how accumulated stress may be affecting the spine, nervous system and wider body, then supports the body to access its own innate capacity for healing and greater wellbeing.

As tension begins to release, clients may notice changes in their health, breathing, posture, movement, pain levels, sleep, energy, digestion or emotional state. Some experience changes quickly, while for others the process develops gradually through consistent sessions.

There is no forceful manipulation, cracking or deep pressure. You remain fully clothed and will usually lie face down on a treatment table while your body is supported to respond in its own way.

Breathwork, HeartMath and Reiki

The way you breathe and respond to stress can affect your body physically as well as emotionally.

Breathwork may help release physical tension, encourage fuller breathing, improve body awareness and support sleep, energy and nervous system regulation.

HeartMath coaching uses practical breathing, attention and emotional regulation techniques to support greater coherence between the heart, brain and nervous system. These techniques can help you manage pressure, improve resilience and give your body a better opportunity to recover from stress.

Reiki provides gentle energetic support and encourages deep rest. When the nervous system begins to settle, the body can soften physical tension, slow the breathing and move towards a more restorative state. Clients may experience warmth, greater relaxation, improved sleep, emotional release or increased energy.

These approaches may be offered individually or incorporated into a personalised session according to your needs.

Weekly Nervous System Reset classes

I also offer weekly Nervous System Reset classes at The Light Centre Monument, based on the holistic 7-step (Move, Play, Stretch, Feel, Breathe, Believe, Relax) Just Relax method.

Classes can include a blend of movement, Qi Gong, yoga, breathwork, reiki, mindfulness, meditation, sound healing, Spinal Flow and energy practices to help you release stress and tension, regulate your nervous system and reconnect with who you truly are in a supportive group setting.

Vanita's approach and background

Before becoming a practitioner, Vanita spent more than 25 years working as an IT Product Manager while balancing a demanding career, family life and professional training. She understands what it is like to carry responsibility, manage constant demands and appear to be coping while your body remains tense and your mind never properly rests. 

Her own experience of Spinal Flow showed her how much stress the body can hold. Through regular sessions, she noticed changes in her health, breathing, posture, energy, mental clarity and ability to feel calm and present. This inspired her to create FlowEssence and help other people reconnect with their own capacity for healing.

Her approach is warm, grounded and practical. She takes time to understand what has been happening in your body, what is going on in your life and what you would most like to change. You will not be rushed, judged or expected to respond in a particular way.

What clients say

“I had a wonderful experience with Vanita. Over a few spinal flow sessions, I felt deeply relaxed and comfortable — as a Tai Chi practitioner I could clearly sense her energy work and the relaxing sensation brought up by her treatment. Since, I have felt that my hip started to level, and my overall structure has improved. Highly recommended for anyone seeking gentle, effective energy-based bodywork with focus on spinal structure.”

“My sessions with Vanita have been truly transformative. Her gentle yet effective approach helped release deep tension in my upper back and restore a natural flow of energy throughout my body. After each session, I feel deeply relaxed, balanced, and more in tune with my overall well-being. Vanita’s professionalism and calm, caring presence make every experience both restorative and uplifting.”

“It is very difficult to put into words a somatic experience/felt-sense, but I will try. I felt safe, floaty and relaxed. My baby started moving and I felt a divine connection with my baby, which I had not felt in this pregnancy before. I felt blue and purple light around my head and my face relaxing. I felt lighter, there was noticeable increase in range of motion in my neck, my sacrum felt free and “open”. I felt pure in my body and very very relaxed, and I felt joy!”

Your first Spinal Flow appointment

Your first 90-minute appointment includes a detailed consultation, postural and spinal assessment, your first 30-minute Spinal Flow treatment and a personalised care plan.

Vanita explores the physical, chemical and emotional stresses that may be affecting your body. She then explains what she observes in clear, understandable language before beginning your treatment.

Every person and condition is different, so no particular result can be guaranteed. The purpose of the work is not to impose healing upon your body, but to help your body reconnect with the innate intelligence and healing capacity already within it.

Appointments are available at Light Centre Monument, providing a calm and welcoming space in the heart of the City.
