Did you say Tuning Forks?

Yes!  Tuning forks are designed to emit a single frequency, which creates a pure sound.  Their precision makes them ideal for use in sound therapy because of the body’s innate capacity to resonate with pure sound.  The vibration of these specifically callibrated tuning forks allows the body to maintain homeostasis and create a healing environment from within.

For years the tuning fork was only thought of as a tool for tuning pianos or as a clock reference for timepieces. It has been used in the medical profession to test ones hearing.

Once an individual begins to understand how vibration works within the body, the next step is to experience it to feel its healing benefits. Therapeutically, vibrations emitted from the tuning fork, induces the resonance in fibrous connective tissues, as well as along the network of nerves within the human body.

What is Tuning Fork Therapy?

It is a system of vibrational sound healing rooted in Oriental Medicine philosophy that utilizes tuning forks and/or symphonic gongs and chimes tuned to the planets. 
It connects the body, mind, and soul in the journey toward optimal health. In harmony with the vibrational sounds of the universe.
The tuning forks are custom calibrated to the frequencies of the Earth, Moon, Sun and Planets.  Following the meridian system of Oriental Medicine, the tuning forks are applied to and worked on and over acupuncture points, trigger points, and points of pain.  By simply placing the tuning forks on the surface of the skin, the vibrations are sent throughout the body sending messages to the nervous system and cells.  Tuning forks may also be used above or around the body to clear the auric field to bring balance and a sense of stillness.

What’s your vibe...?

We often use common terms in conversation to describe one’s wellbeing with words such as;  “in tune”, “good vibe”, “high strung”.  These all relate to the vibration a person radiates out from their energy field.  When we feel just right, we may say “being in tune”.  Athletes refer to it as being “in the zone”.
Through the use of tuning forks, we allow ourselves to become in tune within, as well as, in tune with the universe.

How Sound Works within the Body

The human audible range is 16 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Although the frequency of the planets is not within our audible range, the tones still exist whether we hear them or not. Our unconscious mind knows them, and their sound waves unconsciously affect our behavior.

Sound travels four times faster through water than air.  Since our bodies are approximately 70% water, applying the planetary frequencies along the meridians or acupuncture points allows for a sonic massage down to the cellular level.

Music of the Spheres

Music of the Spheres are the sounds of the planets as they travel around the Sun. Their orbital velocities were calculated by Johannes Kepler and transposed to musical frequency by Hans Cousto. Pythagoras believed that sound was the generator of the universe.
.
Our universe is a cosmic orchestra. For millions of years the planets have been resonating sound waves and we are immersed in their vibrations. All living beings and creatures on Earth are tuned into the movement of the planets.

Our deep connections to the Earth combined with the recognition that illness of the planet manifests in personal illness is a driving force to focus on how each one of us can work toward living in harmony to create a Sustainable future.

To Sum it all Up

This approach to wellness is rooted in the wisdom of Oriental Medicine, which recognizes that most diseases arise from a core blockage in our energy. Acupuncture points provide noninvasive access into the core energetic systems within the body. The planets provide musical intervals, archetypes, and correspondences that help us to fine-tune the therapeutic frequency that is applied to the body with tuning forks. We are sustained and nourished by the powers of the Earth. It is our access to cosmological wisdom, the heavens, and the microcosm that sets us on a journey of transformation. This enables us to reach beyond the self or the macrocosm. “As above so below, as within so without.”
