Body Code For Kids: A Parents Guide
As a mum, I know what it’s like to watch your child struggle and wish you had the right tools to help. Sensitive kids feel things so deeply — sometimes in ways we can’t quite put into words. They might get stomach aches before school, shut down when things feel overwhelming, or refuse foods that seem perfectly fine to everyone else.
For years, I watched my boys navigate anxiety, sensitivities, and growing up in a world that can feel like a lot. What changed everything for us was discovering the Body Code — a gentle energy healing system that gets to the root of what’s going on beneath the surface.
This post is your guide to understanding how the Body Code can support children, especially those who are sensitive, empathic, or simply finding life overwhelming.
What is the Body Code?
The Body Code is a healing system that uses muscle testing to find and release trapped energies that can cause stress — emotional, physical, or even inherited.
It might sound a little “out there” at first, but here’s the beauty of it: kids respond incredibly well. They don’t carry the same resistance adults do. Their systems are open, flexible, and often shift quickly once the root issue is released.
And no, your child doesn’t need to be present for a session. I work by proxy, connecting directly with their subconscious. That means sessions can happen without them having to sit still, answer questions, or even be aware of what’s happening. Parents often love this because it keeps the process simple and stress-free.
Signs Your Child May Benefit from the Body Code
Every child is different, but here are some common signs I see in kids who benefit from this work:
Stomach aches, nausea, or “butterflies” before school or sports.
Feeling anxious, shy, or overwhelmed in new situations.
Sensitivity to foods or being very fussy eaters.
Struggling with confidence, independence, or making friends.
Empathic kids who seem to “absorb” other people’s emotions.
Difficulty winding down at night or staying asleep.
Chronic issues like bedwetting, lingering pain, or headaches.
Emotional ups and downs linked to hormonal changes in adolescents.

How the Body Code Helps Kids
The Body Code works by identifying and releasing imbalances — anything from trapped emotions to misalignments in the body’s energy systems. For kids, this often looks like:
Clearing anxiety and overwhelm so they feel calmer before school, sports, or performances.
Balancing digestion and food sensitivities, making mealtimes less stressful.
Supporting confidence and motivation, helping them show up with more energy and positivity.
Resolving chronic issues like bedwetting or pain that hasn’t shifted through other approaches.
Easing hormonal changes, helping teens manage mood swings, confidence dips, and body changes.
One of my clients brought her son to me for chronic shoulder pain. After his sessions, not only did the pain completely disappear — he became more cheerful, motivated, and confident in everyday life. Parents often find that the “side effects” are just as life-changing as the original issue.

What Parents Notice After Sessions
Parents often tell me things like:
“She seems calmer — like a weight has been lifted.”
“He’s more cheerful, motivated, and confident in himself.”
“Bedtimes and sleep routines are so much smoother.”
“Her pain is gone — and she’s happier overall.”
These shifts can be immediate or build layer by layer, but they are real, lasting changes that ripple out into family life.
Of course, when one child begins to heal, the whole family often feels the shift. I’ve written more about this in my post Family Healing: Supporting Kids, Parents & Patterns with the Body Code, which explores how mums are the energetic centre of the household and why family healing creates such powerful ripple effects.
FAQs Parents Often Ask
Do kids need to be present in the session?
No — not at all. Sessions are done by proxy. That means I connect directly with your child’s subconscious, so they don’t have to sit in, answer questions, or even know it’s happening.
How many sessions are needed?
Every child is unique. Some parents notice big shifts right away, others see steady progress over a bundle of sessions.
Is it safe?
Yes, completely. The Body Code is gentle, non-invasive, and works with the body’s own intelligence.
Can it help with [insert concern]?
Because the Body Code addresses root causes — whether emotional, physical, or energetic — it often supports children with a wide range of issues.
How to Get Started
I offer my work with children through the Family Healing Bundle — a package of 5 sessions designed to create powerful and lasting shifts.
This isn’t about short-term fixes or surface-level coping strategies. It’s about resolving the root causes of stress, imbalance, and emotional overwhelm so your child can step into calm, confidence, and resilience.
✨ If your child is struggling with anxiety, pain, confidence, or any of the challenges I’ve mentioned here, don’t wait. The earlier we address the imbalances, the faster children shift. Learn more and book your Family Healing Bundle here.
Final Thoughts
Raising sensitive kids can feel overwhelming at times — but their sensitivity is also their superpower. With the right support, they can learn to trust themselves, step into confidence, and thrive in their own way.
And you don’t have to do it alone. The Body Code is a proven, gentle system that helps children release what’s been holding them back — so they can feel better, perform better, and shine brighter.
