About
“We are musical instruments played by the gods” - Plato
And as such, music interacts with us on a cellular level, and we respond to it in many ways. One of them is healing.
From ancients like Plato and Pythagoras, to the father of our modern electrical era, Nicola Tesla, comes the attestation that sound, energy and vibration are vital aspects of our very existence. Sound Healing is a powerful therapy that combines different tones and frequencies to improve many facets of our lives, including physical condition, emotional and social development, cognitive and motor functioning, and overall well-being. It is highly effective at triggering the relaxation response, which counters many symptoms caused by chronic stress. It alters our brainwaves, slowing them down and changing them from agitated erratic waves to calm ones. It reduces our heart rates, decreasing the sympathetic tone in our nervous system (high activity, stress), and increasing the parasympathetic tone (rest, repair, digestion, relaxation). With the capacity to slow down your respiratory rate, relax your brainwaves patterns, lower your heart rate variability and calm your nervous system, your immune system is able to function more effectively, and when you engage in this ancient practice of mindfulness, it will help awaken and balance your whole being (body, mind, spirit, soul).
Although considered alternative medicine, sound healing dates back thousands of years, and the modern sciences of neurology and psychology validate it with ample evidence to suggest it is effective and even necessity.. Most people use music to calm or alter or compliment their mood on a daily basis. When used intentionally, sound can induce altered states of consciousness, even causing people to feel like they are floating. Modern physics states that everything in the universe vibrates with frequency, including us, and when we are “off” or out of tune, it can lead to dis-ease and dis-regulation of our minds and bodies.

“If you want to find the secrets of the Universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.” - Nicola Tesla
