How did you become interested in Functional and Energy Medicine, specifically the Emotion Code and Body Code modalities? What motivated you to pursue certification in these areas?
I became interested in Functional medicine because during my career as an Occupational therapist I saw the need to understand the root causes of illness and disease and was seeking alternative treatment for my own healing. I came upon the Emotion Code and Body Code after listening to a podcast that Dr. Brad Nelson was on discussing how trapped emotions can manifest into pain, disease, and illness. For children struggling with managing their emotions, children with ADHD, dyslexia, on the autism spectrum, and those with sensory processing symptoms, he shared how releasing trapped emotions from the body could help them. I was seeking answers to help my son who was very sensitive, impulsive, had difficulty managing his emotions, and was diagnosed with ADHD. Through the desire to help my son I went on to become certified as an Emotion Code practitioner in 2017. Then, after treating many patient’s as a certified hand therapist in a hospital in San Francisco for 20 years, I knew that if I could combine healing modalities to include mind, body, and spirit my patient’s who struggled to master their health challenges could achieve higher levels of health, wellbeing, and success with less time and effort. Then in 2018 I completed my Body Code Certification.
Functional and Energy Medicine often involves understanding the mind-body connection. How do you approach uncovering and addressing emotional imbalances that might be contributing to physical health issues in your clients?
In order to uncover and address emotional imbalances that might be contributing to physical health issues in my clients, I first take a thorough history, really take time to listen to my clients and then share with them how I am uniquely able to help them utilizing my training in psychology, occupational therapy, functional and energy medicine.
What type of services do you offer?
I offer both in-person and virtual appointments for my clients. The Emotion Code and Body Code are done virtually as this technique does not require an in person appointment. I offer hand therapy, bioresonance scans and treatment plans, functional medicine and blood labs. My energy work consists of Emotion Code to include Heart wall clearing, Chakra balancing, Immune system boosting, and Inherited Ancestral clearing. I also offer a comprehensive Body Code Evaluation as well as 30, 45, and hour Body Code appointments. I am getting certified in the Belief Code in January of 2024 and that will then be included in my offerings.
The Emotion Code and Body Code involve identifying and releasing trapped emotions. Could you explain your process for identifying these emotions and the techniques you use to release them?
In order to identify and release trapped emotions and other imbalances in the body using the Emotion Code and Body Code, I first ask God for help and guidance, then I ask if I can act as proxy for the individual that I am working with, then I say their name with the intention to connect with them until I muscle test a “Yes” response. At that time I know I am connected with their subconscious and am asking their subconscious yes/no questions to get answers. I use the chart of Emotions from the Emotion Code and the Body Code software app developed by Dr. Brad Nelson at discoverhealing.com to muscle test answers to get to the root cause of imbalances. Once identified, I release the emotion or imbalance using a magnet over the governing meridian with the intention to clear and release it. At the end of my session I check for how many days a client may process from what was cleared and released and break my proxy connection with them.
What methods do you use to track and measure the success of your interventions when using the Emotion Code and Body Code?
I follow up with my patients and clients to track progress, answer any questions they may have, and alter their treatment plans as needed. Many provide me with text messages, and testimonials on how my approach and treatments are helping them. My practice is busy through word of mouth referrals from clients experiencing transformational healing.
Continuous learning is essential in the field of health and wellness. How do you stay updated with the latest advancements and research in Functional and Energy Medicine, and how do you incorporate new knowledge into your practice with the Emotion Code and Body Code?
In order to stay abreast in the latest advancements in functional and energy medicine I routinely attend additional training through quarterly practitioner education calls from discover healing, collaborate with colleagues on a regular basis, maintain my continuing education and Occupational therapy license, and attend weekly functional medicine training on various topics. I continue to take next level certification trainings offered through discover healing and other functional medicine platforms and I look forward to providing clients with treatment with the Belief Code beginning in January. I will be one of only approximately 180 certified practitioners worldwide at that time.
