What is Sound Healing?
Modern day medicine uses sound only as a diagnostic tool in ultra sound but the vibration of sound can have much more far-reaching positive consequences for people's well- being and recovery. Since the earliest cultures and traditions sound has played an important role for physical and emotional healing. Pythagoras 580B.C. is credited as being the first to use "musical medicine". Most of us have experienced moments of profound feelings while hearing a piece of music to which we particularly respond. Sound in its purest form can promote healing at the very deepest levels of being.
What happens during a treatment?
Treatment is carried out while you are lying on a couch. There is no need to remove any clothing other than your shoes. During treatment your therapist will use a variety of vibrational sounds, toning and tuning forks to identify areas of imbalance within the body. Use of pure sound balances energy flow, helps release emotions, resolve past trauma and restore harmony to the body mind system.
How will I feel?
Treatments can be powerful and deep acting. Sound influences the mental and emotional states, spiritual awareness and experience, and the physical body. Energy changes may make you feel initially sleepy or tired. Other slight symptoms such as a cold or headache are a good sign that the healing is taking place.
How many treatments are needed?
Some problems are short term and can be sorted fairly quickly. Conditions that have been present for years may take longer to relieve. Sound healing releases blocked energy channels, helping the body to heal itself. If disturbances in the etheric energy are highlighted, follow on sessions can be used for aura / chakra balancing, using crystals and colour.
