What Is Sound Healing and How Does It Work?
Sound healing is based on the idea that everything that exists is made up of unique frequencies of sound and light, including the body’s substances (organs, blood, skin, etc). Sound healing uses various frequencies or sets of frequencies to bring the body, mind, and emotions into harmony. Sound healing includes such things as listening to certain types of music or tones of music, making sounds with one’s own body or with instruments, chanting mantras, etc. Objects within close proximity of one another tend to come into vibrational resonance. Sound healing has been used in many cultures for thousands of years, and has received renewed attention in recent years.
What Does Sound Healing Help With?
Sound healing has been used for such issues as low energy, insomnia, depression, digestive issues, anxiety, musculoskeletal complaints, rheumatic pain, memory and concentration. Specific frequencies, such as with ultrasound, are used to break up kidney stones and gallstones. The particular forms of sound healing that I use include tuning forks, which are placed over acupressure points in lieu of acupuncture needles, and playing of crystal singing bowls.
