Sound Healing
Sound Healing Therapy
The use of sound healing is as old as medicine itself. Dating back thousands of years, cultures across the world have drawn upon the healing power of sound frequencies to treat a wide range of ailments.
Gongs have been used as shamanic healing tools, celebratory instruments and as a method of communication for thousands of years. The transforming qualities of the Gong were known to ancient cultures such as Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and many more. Evidence suggests that Gong making was known as early as 4,000BC and ancient alchemy sources put the Gong as far out as 16,000BC.

What Is Sound Healing?
Sound healing is the practice of using sound frequencies to treat physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual illnesses. Sound Therapy uses vibrational frequencies to promote relaxation and relieve stress in your body and mind.
In essence, sound healing uses tonal and rhythmic mixes of voice and instruments. In the instrumental area, you’re mostly going to encounter crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, gongs, and others. On the other hand, you can expect toning, mantras, or over-toning.
According to expert practitioners, sound healing may help restore the regular vibratory frequencies of our brain cells, allowing for a deeper state of relaxation.
How Does Sound Healing Work?
In the growing field of “energy medicine” it is well known that our universe is created through patterns of frequency.Science is now documenting what mystics have known for thousands of years.
Everything that exists in the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual world does so on a vibratory basis. Everything is made of electrical energy. Our Organs and neurotransmitters that we experience as emotions or thoughts are electric frequencies.
These frequencies can become stagnant anywhere in our four-body system, or create an overflow as a result of experiencing trauma, self-limiting beliefs and negative thought patterns as we grow from childhood into adulthood. These imbalances can result in diseases of the body and mind including autoimmune diseases amongst various other ailments.
A Gong bath is a form of sound healing meditation. It is referred to as a bath due to participants being immersed in the vibrations of these instruments during a session.
The Gong works on the level of entrainment, which means a stronger frequency overpowering a weaker frequency. The synchronisation of our fluctuating brainwaves with the stable frequency of the Gong, which our brains acclimate to and unify with.
The sound of a Gong helps the brain reach deep relaxation, by activating the parasympathetic nervous system and one can experience delta and theta brain waves, which are the slowest brain waves in humans. Your brain will find it challenging to follow the many sounds of the Gong so you will enter a deep meditative state during the session.
Gongs are very useful in resolving emotional and physical dissonance. The Gong is a psycho-acoustic gateway to heightened states of awareness and consciousness.
It is an amazing healing tool because the frequencies surpass the intellectual part of the brain but travel to the core of the cellular system where the healing qualities are fully absorbed by the entire system. It is an ideal tool for stress reduction, stimulation of the glandular system and breaks up emotional blockages.
The most popular sound healing method is the “Sound Bath.” In sound baths, you lie down and are exposed to different healing sound vibrations. Keep in mind you may also have a sound healing session yourself. If you feel like you don’t need the guidance of a practitioner, you may lay down at home and play a pre-recorded session or start singing, humming, or chanting. However, keep in mind you must educate yourself about the healing frequencies so that you do the right job.
One of the most remarkable aspects of sound healing is that not all sessions use the same instruments. You may experience different sounds in each session, keeping the experience fresh for you each time. Keep in mind you must be in a comfortable and silent environment to enjoy the full benefits of a sound healing session. Loud sounds can often induce stress, anxiety, and bad moods. If you live in an area with too many external noises, consider looking for somewhere quieter.
You must prepare yourself to receive the vibrational frequencies as they come without any interruptions. As you become more aware of every sound coming into your ears, you’re going to be able to reach a deeper state of relaxation.
Some common sound healing techniques include the following:
Tuning Fork Therapy
In tuning fork therapy, the practitioner calibrates metal tuning forks with particular sound vibrations; once they’re done, they’re going to place the forks directly on the person. As the tuning forks start producing their frequencies, the person’s body gets stimulated. This therapy type does a great job of reducing tension in the body.
Music
Depending on the sounds, music can also be used as therapy. In the case of sound healing practices, some popular ways to use music for healing include Nordoff-Robbins, neurologic music therapy, and singing bowl therapy.
Binaural Beats
Here, the person receives two different sound tones at the same time. Depending on the hertz levels of these sounds, the person can experience deep relaxation states, sleepiness, more focus, better mood, etc.
What Conditions Can Be Treated with Sound Healing?
Sound healing is considered a non-invasive way to treat many conditions. As a sound healer, I can help you enter a deep meditative state and re-align your body’s natural rhythms. During a sound healing treatment, the brain waves change into Alpha and Theta brainwaves, which can only occur when we release tension and reach a deep state of meditation.
Some of the most common conditions I treat with sound therapy include the following:
- Depression
- Chronic Pain
- Anxiety
- General stress
- Emotional imbalances
- Weight imbalances
- Adrenal fatigue
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Auto immune diseases such as ME
- Insomnia
- Hormonal dysfunction
