What is Sound Therapy

You already know the benefits of sound: The right music can pump you up and make workouts feel easier.

We play music at our weddings to celebrate love, and at funerals to say goodbye. We listen to it when we are bored, and dance to it when we want to have fun. And we sing praises and worship with it.

But most importantly, we use music for healing.

When listening to upbeat or cheery music, or when listening to deep, melancholy songs, our emotions flare and we can better process our feelings. The difference is that we only care to listen to certain types of songs when we are feeling sad because (and here’s the kicker) we know it makes us feel better.

The Healing Power of Music and Sound has been an integral part of human civilization and has been used for centuries for healing and meditation purposes. The harmonic vibrations promote relaxation and slow down the brain, heart rate, breathe and disrupt pain signals creating a deep sense of well being.

The fact is that vibrations are known to touch every part of our beings. We hear the sound not only through our ears but also through the cells in our bodies. When your body and mind are out of harmony they become ill and dis-eased and Sound is able to heal us because it touches as well as transforms us in a very deep manner.

Sound has been known to put right whatever imbalance exists in the physiological functioning of our bodies and it is also able to help you deal with virtually every known medical ailment.

By simply listening to the pure, vibrant tone of the Himalayan Singing Bowls brings the mind and body back into harmony by restoring the body’s natural rhythms.

This is made possible because singing bowls emit certain sounds that work like an energetic medication that can heal your pain as well as help you remove stress disorder.

HERE IS THE DEAL -It’s a massage on a cellular level! The sound waves deeply penetrate to break up old negative energy patterns and your body’s chakras rise in vibration to meet the Singing Bowls and instruments being played. During this treatment, there is nothing for you to do but breathe and experience the journey through sound.

The truth is our body’s natural energy is in constant movement. Through the practice of sound therapy, you enjoy a truly immersive experience. Sound can dispel the disruptive stress of everyday life. If you find that stress has your life out of balance, then a Sound Wave Treatment is a perfect way to bring alignment, peace and joy back into your life.

*Sound Healing, Sound Therapy, Vibrational Sound Therapy and Sonic Immersion are all interchangeable to describe a session that uses singing bowls and other instruments such as tuning forks, chimes, etc, both on and off the body, in person and online.

Sound Therapy Benefits

Sound Therapy has profound effects on the body and the mind. It is so gentle and relaxing that almost all people will fall asleep at some point during the session. Those who undergo a state of deep relaxation often report a feeling of mental freshness that they carry with them for weeks after the session is over.

Individual and Group Sessions can last 1-2 hours and take place fully clothed on a mat on the floor. Bowls are placed and played all around your body, head and on your chakras (energy centres). Most clients will start to relax as soon as the session begins.

Each person gets to feel at the physical level the vibrations of the instruments while being played close to the body or placed directly in contact with the body. Many clients experience very deep relaxation, (even falling asleep) and a profound sense of feeling nurtured and supported in a safe space of soothing and harmonizing sound. No excuses or reasons required!

A beautiful thing about Sound Therapy is that the experience really is in the ear of the beholder.

Each of us has a unique relationship to sound and music–driven by our personality, our character, people and places that have influenced our lives.

Each brain will interpret sounds differently, based on the physiology of the inner ear as well as life experiences, current mood and other personal variables.

You might even have had a sound bath without realizing it. Have you ever found yourself in a yoga class listening to soothing traditional music while in Savasana (corpse pose)? Yep? A Sound bath of sorts.

Singing bowl sound baths create the space and conditions for healing to occur on many levels; the sound stimulates our circulation and immune system and helps to release emotions stored in our body like anger, stress, and trauma. Sound also balances both hemispheres of our brain, promoting deep relaxation.

For those who find the idea of meditation daunting, sound baths are a great way to experience the benefits. They are accessible and inclusive for all, including children and pregnant women.

Science of Sound

In Germany, research into the science of sound and its impact on the human body is rapidly advancing, and the use of Sound Massage as a complementary therapy in mainstream healthcare is significantly increasing. Its fields of application extended from the gentle but highly effective relaxation to the target-oriented application in treatments and as a complementary therapy in healthcare and specialized healthcare professions.

Some people fall asleep during the treatment, some feel wide awake, and some feel like they have drifted off to a new level! The treatment isn’t a deep tissue massage, it won’t work on knots in your back, but it can help you switch off and relieve tension in your muscles. It will take you to a level of relaxation that will feel positively blissful.

working with sound

Using the soothing sounds of Himalayan singing bowls, the meditative process is gently guided with visualization of vibrations, working with both the sound and our physical bodies,

When you sink into the focused attention, and we guide your awareness to your listening, you allow your brain waves to slow, shifting from a more active state to a more relaxed or dreamlike state. The sounds introduced during a session are an invitation into a deeper state of consciousness, an opportunity to unplug from external stimuli and gain perspective on what's going on within you. The goal of the experience is to invite deep rest and relaxation and explore self-inquiry and self-discovery.

Following a session, clients can continue to experience the benefits of having been in the meditative state for some time. Calmness, reduced anxiety, and the ability to think clearly and remain focussed are just some of the benefits of regular sound treatments. Generally, people leave sound baths feeling relaxed, energized, balanced, and "re-tuned."

Sound Massages can be a preventative therapy and has shown a remarkable and swift improvement in many cases of physical, mental and emotional pain. During the Sound Massage, an atmosphere of safety and security is created that allows us to let go and pain seem to melt away—letting go of stress, worries, anxieties, doubt, fears, and emotions that negatively affect our health our life. Moreover, in this soothing sound space, with all its positive effects, it is possible for us to:

Experience our body through a pleasantly warm, maybe even blissful, feeling – perhaps a feeling we had long forgotten— and become aware of it again for the first time in many years.
Allow our running thoughts to come to rest so we can finally listen again to our own body—maybe there is even room to let our mind and soul unfold to new heights and creativity.
The combined sound and vibration can induce a deep sense of meditative relaxation, which helps to de-stress mind and body.
