Peter Hess® Sound Massage...
A Peter Hess® sound massage is a modern method rooted in ancient knowledge of the positive effects of sound, such as in the east Indian healing arts of 5000+ years ago. According to their legend, humans were created from sound and are sound. It follows that if a being is "in tune" with both self and environment, he or she is able to live life more freely, happily and creatively.
Peter Hess is a German engineering graduate (FH) in Physical Technology who has extensively researched the effects of sound on people. Based on his manifold experience, particularly in Nepal and Tibet, he started work with metal singing bowls in 1984. His sound-massage method is based on compiled investigations and experiments showing the effect of traditional music on the human mind and body. In his many years of practice, Peter has adapted this knowledge for western cultures – the result is the original Peter Hess® method of Sound-Massage.
Peter heads the Institute for Sound Massage Therapy in northern Germany, which continues to develop and expand on his methods. He has shared his own experiences in seminars provided both in Germany and abroad since 1986.
The benefits of the Peter Hess® sound massage are tied to the placement of the Singing Bowls. Peter Hess ® therapeutic Singing Bowls are positioned on and around the dressed body and gently tapped with mallets specifically designed for this application. In this process, the resulting sounds induce audible and perceptible impulses. Due to the low frequencies of the harmonic sounds, the subject is rapidly transformed into a soothing state of deep relaxation. In many patients, this develops into a sense of self-confidence, security and self-reliance. Furthermore, the finer, higher vibrations also stimulate body fluids and are set in motion, effectively penetrating down to a cellular level. These gentle vibrations can then gently loosen tense muscles, stimulate circulation and have a soothing effect upon deep facial tissue allowing regenerative processes to occur at all levels- physically, mentally and emotionally.
