The Emotion Code was developed by a chiropractor, Dr. Bradley Nelson, and is an energy healing technique designed to help identify and literally release Trapped Emotions — which are believed to be harmful emotional energies from negative past events. Trapped Emotions may cause feelings of depression and anxiety, and may also block people from love and happiness and make them feel disconnected from others. The premise of this technique is that Trapped Emotions are made of energy just like the rest of the body, and that they exert an influence on our physical tissues. We believe this can cause acute discomfort and potential dis-ease. Releasing Trapped Emotions can create the proper conditions for the body to heal — so physical and emotional difficulties may disappear or become much more manageable.
