What is Sound Healing Therapy?
Sound Healing Therapy is an ancient healing technique that uses sound waves to promote physical, emotional and spiritual healing. It has been used for centuries in many cultures around the world and is now gaining popularity in the modern world. This therapy combines music, sound frequencies and vibrations to create a therapeutic experience that can help reduce stress, improve mood, enhance relaxation and promote overall wellbeing. This therapy offers numerous health benefits such as improved sleep, increased energy levels, better focus and concentration, improved immune system functioning and reduced anxiety. By understanding how sound healing works and its various applications, we can begin to explore the potential of this powerful therapy as a form of music medicine.
Sound Healing Therapy works by using music or other sounds to create a vibrational frequency that can be felt throughout the body. This frequency stimulates healing within the body by helping it reach a deep level of relaxation and balance. Sound Healing is as an alternative therapy option due to its holistic approach to health care and its ability to provide relief from physical ailments as well as mental ones. It is also seen as a great way to achieve a sense of inner peace and balance.
The Positive Effects of Music Therapy on the Health of Both the Mother & the Baby
Sound Medicine and Sound Healing Sessions are definitely an effortless and fun way to get into a deeper state of full body and mind relaxation and to be able to reconnect with ourselves. But does this also apply for a pregnant woman?
And the answer is YES! During pregnancy Crystal Singing Bowls or other sound medicine instruments are a great way to relax and reduce stress. Mothers who use this tool can go into a calm, relaxed state, which can have a positive effect on their babies too!
This is a kind of entrainment that’s happening everywhere not only with Sound but also between two human beings. Beyond sound, relaxation can also be shared between two people—like a mother and her baby. This type of connection is incredibly special, allowing for the relaxation response to be just as useful for the mother as it is for her child.
