What is sound therapy?

Sound therapy combines sound, music and special instruments played in a therapeutic way with deep introspection techniques to improve health and well-being. Sound therapists believe that sounds - music, pure tones, different frequencies - can rebalance our energy, well-being and emotions. If you're looking for a new wellness method, sound therapy with crystal bowls and Tibetan bowls could be just the thing. 

The practice of healing with sound dates back to ancient Greece, where music was sometimes used as a means of curing mental illness. However, this is not the only instance where music has been used to arouse positive emotions - music has been used for years in the military to boost morale, and "learning" playlists are often used to increase work productivity. 

Sound therapy is usually delivered by a trained therapist, and each session can involve various sound and music-related activities depending on the method. These include listening to music, meditation, moving to the beat of a song, playing an instrument, singing and humming along to music or sound massage with singing bowls. 

SOUND MASSAGES WITH SINGING BOWLS

Sound massage was developed on the basis of ancient Eastern practices and modern scientific research into the effects of sound and vibration. In Germany, research into the science of sound and its effect on the human body is progressing rapidly and sound massage is increasingly being used as a complementary therapy in healthcare. The generation of vibration using singing bowls is particularly popular. Sound healing can be traced back to the ancient cultures of Tibet, China, India, Latin America, Africa, and even Europe in ancient Greece.

Their areas of application range from gentle but highly effective relaxation to targeted use in therapy and as a complementary therapy in healthcare and nursing professions.

Who are sound massages suitable for?

Sound massage is suitable for almost everyone, including young children and pregnant women (in the 2nd and 3rd trimester). Each session is individually tailored to the client's needs. Sound massages are only performed by trained therapists, but you can reduce your own stress with your singing bowl for beginners by playing meditative sounds on your own.
