Emotion Code®, Body Code®, & Belief Code®

These bioenergetic healing modalities were developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson, a holistic chiropractor. He spent decades perfecting this technique while working with clients in his clinic. He focused on finding the root causes of chronic illness, which led to the creation of the Emotion Code® and later, the more comprehensive Body Code®, and most recently the Belief Code®.

Release the Past. Restore Balance. Move Forward with Clarity.

True healing often begins beneath the surface.

Emotion Code®, Body Code®, and Belief Code® are advanced bioenergetic healing modalities that help uncover and release the unseen imbalances that may be influencing your emotional state, physical wellbeing, behaviors, and subconscious patterns.

When these energetic interferences are cleared, many people experience greater ease, clarity, resilience, and alignment — as if the body can finally exhale.

This work honors the body’s innate wisdom and its natural ability to heal when given the right support.

And because energy is not limited by language, these methods can support not only humans — but animals as well.

What is Emotion Code®, Body Code®, & Belief Code®?

Emotion Code®, Body Code®, and Belief Code® are holistic bioenergetic healing modalities designed to identify and release the energetic imprints that may be holding you back — emotionally, physically, and subconsciously. These methods work with the body’s innate intelligence to uncover imbalances and restore harmony so you can move forward with greater ease.

Emotion Code® — Emotional Freedom

Emotions are meant to move through us. Yet sometimes, challenging experiences leave behind energetic imprints known as trapped emotions.

These unresolved energies may quietly influence how you respond to life, shape relationship patterns, contribute to stress, or even manifest as physical discomfort.

Emotion Code® gently identifies and releases these trapped emotions, creating space for greater emotional freedom, inner calm, and openness.

Many clients describe feeling lighter — as though something they didn’t realize they were carrying has finally been set down.

Body Code® — Whole-System Healing

The body is brilliantly interconnected, and symptoms are often signals pointing toward deeper imbalance.

Body Code® expands the scope of discovery by muscle testing for underlying factors that may be disrupting harmony — including energy flow, structural alignment, nervous system stress, toxins, nutritional imbalances, circuitry disruptions, and more.

Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, this method seeks the root cause, allowing the body to release imbalances, recalibrate, and naturally kickstart the body’s innate healing abilities.

The result is often a renewed sense of balance, stability, and support from within.

Belief Code® — Transform the Subconscious

Your subconscious beliefs shape your reality far more than most people realize.

Hidden beliefs can trigger pain, influence self-worth, success, relationships, health, and the degree to which you allow yourself to thrive.

Belief Code® helps uncover and release limiting core beliefs — especially those formed early in life — so new, supportive narratives can take their place.

When these internal shifts occur, external change often follows with surprising ease.

— ❤︎ —

Together, these modalities create a powerful framework for transformation — helping you release the past, align with your true self, and step into a more balanced, vibrant life.

These techniques are not limited to humans — they can also be used with animals. Because animals are highly receptive to energetic work, sessions may support emotional balance, behavioral challenges, adjustment to life changes, and overall wellbeing for your pets.

How can you benefit?

Every healing journey is unique, but clients often seek this work when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for meaningful change.

While these modalities are not a substitute for medical or psychological care, they can be a powerful complementary approach for those seeking a more holistic path to wellbeing.

You may benefit if you are looking to:

  • Release emotional weight you can’t quite explain
  • Break recurring patterns in relationships or life experiences
  • Reduce stress and feel more emotionally regulated
  • Support your body’s natural healing processes
  • Gain clarity and reconnect with your inner guidance
  • Move beyond subconscious fears or self-doubt
  • Feel more aligned, grounded, and resilient
  • Expand your capacity for joy, abundance, and personal growth
  • Manage chronic pain and illnesses that otherwise have not found relief in traditional medicines and/or therapies
  • Assist with end-of-life care
  • … and much more

Many clients report feeling lighter, clearer, and more like themselves after sessions — as though something that was quietly holding them back has finally loosened its grip.

Animals may benefit when experiencing:

  • Anxiety, nervousness, or reactivity
  • Behavioral changes
  • Difficulty adjusting to new environments
  • Past trauma
  • Excessive fear or stress
  • Emotional distress after separation or loss
  • End-of-life care
  • … and much more

Because animals cannot always communicate what they feel, energetic work can provide a gentle way to support their balance and comfort.

What Is Muscle Testing?

Muscle testing is a form of applied kinesiology. It is a form of biofeedback that helps access information from the body’s innate intelligence. It’s based on the principle that your body responds differently to positive or negative stimuli — subtle shifts in muscle tone or strength can indicate whether something is balanced, imbalanced, or needs attention energetically.

It’s about how the nervous system and energy field momentarily respond when a specific question or statement is introduced. The practitioner uses this response as feedback to guide the session and identify what the body is ready to release or address.

1. Ask the Body

A simple, intentional question with a binary response of “yes” or “no” is asked of the body’s subconscious using muscle testing.

2. Observe the Response

The muscle briefly strengthens for “yes” or softens for “no”, showing the body’s energetic response. Each “yes” answer guides the practitioner through the Body Code® tables to identify the imbalance.

3. Release and Rebalance

The identified imbalance is released using magnetic energy swiped across the governing meridian, allowing the body’s energy to restore harmony.

How In-Person Muscle Testing Works

In an in-person session, the practitioner may lightly test a client’s arm for a momentary change in muscle tone while asking specific yes/no questions, such as “Is there a trapped emotion that can be released now?” Or “Is the imbalance on the left side of the Body Code® table?” This is how the practitioner drills down into the multi-layered tables to identify an imbalance.

This process feels subtle and effortless — there’s no force involved, and clients remain relaxed throughout. The practitioner simply observes how the body’s energy communicates through these natural, reflexive responses.

Here is a video demonstration by Dr. Bradley Nelson using the arm method of muscle testing — 

Muscle Testing 101: The Arm Test

How Remote Muscle Testing Works

In a remote session, muscle testing is performed through a principle known as energetic or quantum connection — the understanding that energy is not limited by distance. With the client’s permission, the practitioner uses themselves as a proxy, meaning they temporarily connect to the client’s energetic field with the intention to test on their behalf.

Using the same muscle testing method on themselves as proxy for the client, the practitioner asks the body’s subconscious for information just as they would in person. The body’s energy field, which carries a unique vibrational signature, responds through the proxy connection.

Clients often report that remote sessions feel just as accurate, gentle, and effective as in-person ones. Many even notice emotional shifts or sensations in real time, despite the distance.

Here is a video demonstration by Dr. Bradley Nelson using the ring-in-ring method of muscle testing — 

"Ring-in-Ring" Method: Muscle Testing 101

 Why Muscle Testing is Used in the Body Code®

Muscle testing serves as the communication bridge between the conscious and subconscious mind. The Body Code® uses this method to identify which energetic imbalances are most ready to be released, guiding the process step-by-step.

It’s a respectful, non-invasive dialogue with the body — allowing healing to occur at the pace and level that feels safe and natural for the client.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Emotion Code®, Body Code®, & Belief Code® sessions.

How long is a session?
  • Emotion Code® / Heart-Wall® ONLY sessions are 30 minutes.
  • Body Code® sessions are 60 minutes. (This includes Belief Code® and Emotion Code®.)
How are sessions conducted?

Sessions are remotely conducted by proxy over Zoom, by phone, or by email if the client cannot attend the session. This bioenergetic healing modality does not require the client to be present. Session reports are emailed after every session.

Do I need to believe in energy healing for it to work?

Belief is not required — only openness. Think of it less as “belief” and more as allowing your body the opportunity to communicate what it needs.

What happens during a session?

Sessions are gentle and non-invasive. Using muscle testing (either in person or remotely by proxy), we communicate with your subconscious to identify imbalances and determine what the body is ready to release. Most people find the process surprisingly relaxing.

Can sessions be done remotely?

Yes! Because this work is energetic in nature, sessions are just as effective at a distance as they are in person.

How will I feel afterward?

Experiences vary. Some people notice immediate shifts, while others observe gradual changes unfolding over days or weeks. You might feel lighter, calmer, more focused, or emotionally clearer.

How many sessions will I need?

There is no universal timeline. Some intentions resolve quickly, while deeper or long-standing patterns may benefit from multiple sessions. Your body guides the pace. On average, my past clients have typically required 3 to 5 sessions for a particular focused healing. Every client request is unique.

Is this safe for children or animals?

Yes! These methods are gentle and can be adapted for people of all ages, as well as pets.

Is this therapy, medical, or veterinary treatment?

No. Emotion Code®, Body Code®, and Belief Code® are complementary wellness practices and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent medical, psychological, or veterinary conditions.

My body code session with Donna was healing for me. I felt a sense of relief, more balanced, and lighter. My shoulders were not as heavy.  I haven’t felt this way in a long time. I released emotional and energetic blocks I was not even aware of. Donna made me feel very supported, safe, and seen. I highly recommend Donna and this work for finding relief and peace.
