Most people who hear the word "massage" have a pretty clear idea or image in their head of what a massage looks or feels like. Yes, there are many different kinds of massage (Swedish, deep tissue, trigger point, cranial sacral, etc.), but there is rarely the question of "what is a massage?"
Advanced Bodywork, on the other hand... may leave some people with questions! In our office, Michelle offers Advanced Bodywork, which includes Emotion Code, Body Code, and Belief Code work.
That likely leads you to ask, okay, but what is Emotion Code, Body Code and Belief Code?!
Have you noticed that emotions often are associated with a physical feeling? Anxiety creates a "knot" in your stomach, grief and heartache cause a literal pain in your chest, embarrassment causes your cheeks to flush. Your emotional energy and your physical body are directly connected.
The energy of past emotions can literally become trapped in your body, affecting your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Emotion Code is a healing method that releases these trapped emotions to help improve all those aspects of your health.
Body Code takes it beyond just emotions to uncover other root causes of discomfort, sickness, and suffering in body and spirit — such as toxins, pathogens, structural issues, and more.
Belief Code digs deep into the belief system to address unwanted negative beliefs. Unwanted negative beliefs often bleed into our daily thoughts and choices, which ultimately drive our actions - correcting these negative beliefs can have a dramatic impact on how you live your life, creating an upward spiral of choices and outcomes.
Patients who have seen Michelle for Advanced Body Work have had incredible results, including decreased pain, improved relationships with family, huge improvements in mood, and more.
