Therapies

Sound Therapy or Sound Healing uses tuning forks, music, quartz crystal bowls, chanting, toning, Tibetan bowls, and more to create harmonic vibrational resonance for health & wellbeing. Sound is the most obvious of all vibrational and resonance therapies. We all hear and feel the vibration of sound. Sound also affects us emotionally: a beautiful piece of music can bring us to sublime tears, and the sound of an explosion can invoke fear. Random, unfocused and chaotic sound produces dissonance and anxiety. Focused, conscientious sound creates resonance and harmony. By using sound intentionally from a neutral space in a quiet, peaceful environment, healing and higher levels of conscious awareness can occur. The use of tuning forks on meridians and acupoints is called Soundpuncture or Sonopuncture. Tuning forks can also be used with other energy pathways such as the chakras, in the energy field (aura) and reflex zones.
