Understanding Physical Trauma Energy: How Your Body Stores It and How Energy Healing Can Release It
When most people think of trauma, they picture deep emotional wounds or very stressful life events. But in the Body Code, there’s another category that is important to address: Physical Trauma Energy.
This type of trauma isn’t about memories or feelings. It’s about the energetic imprint left behind by a physical incident, such as:
A significant injury
An illness that overwhelmed the body
A surgery or invasive procedure
A fall, accident, or impact
A time when the body experienced shock, strain, or intense physical stress
Even if you’ve “healed” physically, your body may still be carrying the energetic memory of what happened.
And that leftover energy can create symptoms, blocks, or imbalances long after the event itself is over.
What Exactly Is Physical Trauma Energy?
In the Body Code system, physical trauma energy is a vibrational frequency that may become stuck in the body during an intense trauma that is physically shocking or stressful. Think of it like:
A ripple or shockwave that never fully settled
A memory your cells held onto long after your mind moved on
This kind of trauma doesn’t require drama. You don’t have to break a bone or have emergency surgery to develop it. Even events like dental work, childbirth, intense illness, or a fall that seemed small at the time can create trauma energy the body stores.
When this specific energy gets stuck, it can disrupt:
Mobility
Strength
Organ function
The nervous system
Pain levels
Healing and recovery
Sleep
Mood
Digestive function
Hormones
Clients are often shocked when a symptom they’ve had for a long time finally improves only after clearing physical trauma energy they didn’t even know was there.
Could Physical Trauma Energy Be Affecting You?
Here are some clues that this may be an underlying cause of what you're dealing with:
1. Chronic or recurring pain that doesn’t match current injury
If nothing shows up on scans or doctors can’t explain the pain, trauma energy can be a root contributor.
2. Old injuries that “never felt the same” again
Even if they healed structurally, the energy of the trauma may still be stuck.
3. Sensitivity or discomfort in a specific area
A location that feels “off,” heavy, weak, or reactive without an obvious reason.
4. Symptoms that began around the time of a physical event
Surgery, childbirth, a fall, an illness—your subconscious remembers the timeline even if you don’t.
5. Unexpected emotional reactions related to the physical body
Fear, tension, guardedness, or holding patterns can all stem from unresolved physical trauma energy.
6. Slowed or stubborn healing
When the energetic imprint stays trapped, the body can only heal to a certain point.
How I Identify This During a Session
In an Emotion Code & Body Code session, I use muscle testing to ask your subconscious:
Is there Physical Trauma Energy present?
When did it occur?
Where in the body is it stored?
Is it contributing to your symptoms?
What needs to be released to restore balance?
Your subconscious already knows the answers—and my job is to help us access them.
Often, clients are surprised to discover trauma energy from:
A childhood fall
A surgery from years ago
An illness they forgot about
A moment of physical strain or shock
A past accident they thought they “got over”
These events can affect the body for years, until the trapped energy is cleared.
How an Energy Healing Session Helps Release This Energy
Once we identify physical trauma energy, I use gentle, targeted energy healing techniques to release the trapped energy.
This helps your body:
Rebalance its energy field
Reduce pain or tension
Improve mobility
Restore the flow of healing
Calm the nervous system
Release fear the body has been holding
Move out of “protection mode” and into healing
Releasing physical trauma energy can create a noticeable shift because your body finally lets go of something it has been carrying far too long.
If You Feel Like Your Body Has Been “Stuck,” There’s a Reason
Your body is always doing its best to protect you. When trauma energy becomes trapped, it’s usually because your system was overwhelmed at the time and couldn't process everything fully.
You don’t have to stay stuck in the after-effects of something that happened months or even years ago.
Energy healing allows your body to return to homeostasis—back to its desired, natural state.
If you’ve been dealing with pain, symptoms, or limitations that haven’t budged, exploring physical trauma energy can be a powerful place to start.
