Sound Healing is a relatively new discipline in the healing world, yet transformation through sound has been part of human life from the beginning. Nature sounds, song, voice, chants, pounding two rocks together, hitting a hollow log with a stick are all ways in which our ancestors used sound to create ceremony and transformation. In modern society, music as a part of ceremony is commonplace. For example, religious services, presidential inaugurations, sporting events, and ribbon-cutting ceremonies all incorporate music as part of their event to either bring spectators into the feel of the moment or to reflect on and absorb what they just saw or heard.
According to sound healer Kenny Parker in Austin, Texas “Sound is primal. Quantum physics and science are only now discovering what the mystics and ancient cultures knew long ago: the matrix for the Universe is a seamless super-conscious energy field, composed of light, sound and celestial harmonics. Plato called this sound "the Music of the Spheres." Eastern cultures refer to it as the "Divine Melody" or "Sacred Sound." In Christian teachings, it is called ‘the Word.’”
Research has shown that when we are deprived of certain light frequencies we can become sick. One of the most fascinating scientific facts to emerge recently is that sound behaves in a similar fashion to light. In other words, sound and light act like vitamins and minerals in our body. Most people are deficient in certain tones and this is traced when the human voice is recorded and monitored. We need a certain balance of sound frequencies, which may vary from one individual to another, in order to maintain our bodies in a healthy state.
Sound healers use a variety of instruments to bring a state of resonance to the client. Instruments include the voice, tuning forks, rattles, Tibetan and crystal bowls, drums, flutes, didgeridoos, harps, piano and gongs. As a sound healer dis-ease is seen as lack of balance and harmony. Paul Hubbert says “certain tones represent perfect health or balance. When our body is in dis-ease, we are literally out of tune, or vibrating off key. Disharmony can manifest mentally, spiritually, emotionally and physically.
I use tuning forks in my wellness practice along with chakra balancing music which resonates on and over certain parts of the body that are out of tune. An assessment before and after the session validates the improvement made and leaves my clients with never a doubt that the sound healing session was a success. Sound healing is a powerful and enjoyable tool for bringing harmony to all aspects of health-spiritual, mental, emotional and physical.
