General FAQs
-
With its roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine, energy healing comes in many forms and generally refers to a variety of holistic healing techniques that use the natural mind-body connection to promote well-being.
The concept is simple: it is believed that by accessing, channeling and balancing the body's energy, releasing unprocessed emotions, stress and imbalance we can support physical, emotional and mental health.
-
Everything is energy. Every cell in our physical bodies, every illness we fight, our feelings, experiences, thoughts, memories, and beliefs.
When energies of a low frequency (negative emotions, injuries, illness, etc.) aren't processed and released in real time, they can get stuck in the body and can lead to discomfort, illness, pain, mood issues, fatigue, emotional imbalance and more.
Energy work helps your body achieve homeostasis, maintain balance and stability and as a result, unlocks your body's innate ability to heal.

At the beginning of each session we’ll discuss your goal and/or identify symptoms that are bothering you to establish a focus and intention for the session. This can be a physical symptom like a sore jaw, chronic back pain, or frequent headaches etc. or it can be emotional like feeling stuck, lacking motivation, being easily angered, etc.
With our intention for the session clear, we connect with your subconscious mind and are guided to energetic blocks using muscle testing. I will ask yes/no questions to identify imbalances/emotions contributing to these symptoms. If you need or want to know more to give you context or clarity we will continue to use yes/no questions to dig deeper before we ultimately release the imbalance/emotion and its influence on your body.
-
During your appointment most people don’t feel much but if you’re very in-tune with your body and energy you may feel warmth, tingling or release in different areas of your body as we work. Neither experience is better than the other or any indication of progress.
Many clients notice immediate relief in symptoms and almost all report feeling “lighter” at the end of our time together. Processing time will continue for the following 12-72 hours during which you will continue to feel shifts and can watch for continuing improvements.
In the days following your appointment you may feel lighter, focused and energized or you may feel tired, or experience an echo of your symptoms. Some (but not most!) will have a brief moment of “worse before it gets better”, this can feel discouraging, but will pass quickly. Reach out to me directly if you have any concerns, I’m always here for you.

Because the body functions on principles of biomagnetic energy, muscle testing can be used as a means of connecting with the subconscious mind to find and release energies creating imbalance. We ask a definitive question and then read the positive and negative muscle response. It’s believed that a strong muscle response indicates a “yes”, while the weak muscle response indicates a “no” answer.
By querying the nervous system in this way, energetic imbalances can be found and eliminated incredibly efficiently.
-
Emotions can get trapped when you are not able to process them in real time. Maybe the experience is too overwhelming, your processing is interrupted, or you simply didn’t want to face it and pushed it down, instead (we’ve all been there).
-
Almost all of my clients report feeling ”lighter” after just one session. Even when physical symptoms don‘t immediately lift (but often they do!), they’re amazed by feelings of calm, relaxation, clarity or that they’re less triggered, feel happier, and/or sleep better.
Keep in mind: significant issues often come with significant history, layers and connections within the mind and body. You didn’t get here in a day, so trust your body and the healing process. It’s amazing what the body is capable of when we clear the path.
-
Your symptoms are your body asking for help. Conventional medicine tends to treat the symptoms, but the real question is; what are they symptoms trying to tell us?
Just because something is significant or has been around for years doesn’t mean it has to be complicated. Some complicated, chronic or old issues can take many sessions to unravel but I’ve also seen pain melt away in a single session, symptoms decrease in severity from a single trapped emotion.
Anything can cause anything, and healing is possible. Even if it doesn’t seem that way to you now.
-
No, energy healing is generally considered to be a safe, noninvasive practice that supports, and will not negatively interfere with, conventional medicine, therapies or medications.
Some people experience sensations, like tingling or tiredness, during or after treatment. Some may experience processing or detox symptoms after a session like fatigue, emotions bubbling to the surface, echoes of the symptoms we addressed and even digestive upset or loose stools. These symptoms, while inconvenient, can be seen as validation of the deep work we did together in your session. Symptoms generally occur within the first 48 hours and pass very quickly.
If you have any questions or concerns following a session, do not hesitate to reach out to Lindsay directly here.

Definitely! Energy Healing is widely considered to be a safe and effective complement to other therapies and conventional medicine. In our experience it is likely to enhance your results and further support your healing.
Note: Energy healing is not intended as a substitute for medical care and should not replace recommended medical treatments from licensed physicians and healthcare providers.

I get it, it’s hard to believe things we don’t understand. But have you ever felt the vibe change when someone walks into the room? Had a happy memory brighten your mood? Felt the electricity build with someone you were attracted to? It’s all energy at work.
Maybe you do believe in this energy thing…

Emotion/Body/Belief Code can absolutely be done for children (and animals!) with expressed parental consent. And what a gift!
Much of what I find as we uncover belief systems is rooted in early childhood. At the foundation of most systems is rooted in a belief formed before age 7, at which time we didn’t have the capacity to discern for ourselves, we simply believed what we were told, saw or learned and it because truth. Think of how much of this would be faulty or false?
Think of the profound impact uprooting those faulty belief systems could have BEFORE puberty, adolescence, university, marriage, etc etc etc. You might have had more confidence, trust, self-esteem, fewer insecurities, etc.
Absolutely! Energy healing is wonderful for kids because they’re so open and as a result, may benefit from it even more than adults.

Yes, energy work can be a beautiful way to support our furry family members!
Whether you’re looking to support their general health and happiness or they are dealing with illness, behavioural changes, interpersonal issues (with humans or other animals) or struggling with an injury or signs of aging, reiki can improve physical symptoms, mood and behaviour in any animal.
-
Most Emotion/Body/Belief Code clients prefer the convenience of virtual appointments. Virtual appointments are no less effective than meeting in-person, muscle testing is done by proxy by your practitioner and appointments are just as effective as meeting in person. This means we can meet whether you’re across town or oceans away.
-
Muscle testing is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that reads muscle strength and responsiveness to gain insights from your body; to communicate or receive direction from the subconscious mind. We tap into the relationship between the subconscious mind and energy by asking yes or no questions and then checking the body’s response.
-
Proxy is when someone is given permission to act on someone else’s behalf. With your permission, Lindsay can act as Proxy for your muscle testing and can therefore test on herself which makes it possible for us to meet virtually from anywhere in the world! She uses a simple ring-in-ring technique to use her own hands to navigate your session, whether you are together on zoom or she is working asynchronously (without your presence).
It is important to note that muscle testing does not give Lindsay “access” to your mind but rather, the ability to work with your subconscious to be taken to areas of concern. The subconscious mind will never reveal anything that isn’t ready to be released.
-
Asynchronous sessions are done independently without you attending a scheduled appointment. Lindsay communicates the notes, context, comments and downloads via WhatsApp voice notes. You will receive all the same information and have the opportunity to ask questions at your convenience within the 48 hours following your appointment. This appointment style is perfect for busy people who don’t want to their busy lives to hold them back in their healing.
-
Our health is our greatest asset but I know it can be hard to invest in ourselves sometimes, especially if like me, you feel like you’ve already tried “everything”.
Our generous referral policy gets you 50% off an asynchronous Emotion or Body Code session for every referral you make.
Sharing is caring (and saving).
