Since its development as a therapy thousands of years ago, sound healing has been used in nearly every culture to aid in the treatment of both mental and physical illnesses and injuries, as well as to assist individuals in the dying process. Sound healing now has involved to a wide array of instruments (gongs, tuning forks, singing bowls, etc) as well as human vocalizations.
How sound affects the body
Cranial nerves connect the eardrum to every organ in the human body, so externally generated sounds can have profound and direct effects on internal body systems. Through listening to various frequencies, sound can harmonize cells, organs, and biological systems which may be disrupted, blocked, or out of sync with the remainder of the body and environment.
Sound healing creates a deep sense of relaxation. It is an opportunity to unplug from external busyness and focus on inner peace. When at peace, you are more healthy, your mind works better, you are more emotionally stable, and you have more access to higher energies and Spirit.
Sound therapy can significantly alter brain waves, changing agitated wave patterns to exceptionally calm waveforms. As our brainwaves slow down, we shift from an active state to a more relaxed state. In these states, our breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure decrease. This helps our immune system function more efficiently, reduces our stress hormones, and triggers the release of feel good chemicals in the brain.
Sound healing can help with anxiety, depression, PTSD, heart coherence, stress, fatigue, chronic pain, cognition, and memory (dementia), sleep, tinnitus, and other imbalance states in the body. Sound also will help to restore us on all levels back into balance, a delicate balance, which is often disturbed by screen watching and forms of magnetic frequencies that are often destructive.
Similar to vitamin therapy, every frequency is a nutrient. You can find what frequencies are missing in your system and get them back into the body to create a balance or energy flows harmonically through the system again. I conduct Voice Analysis which will give you a “picture” of your internal organ system imbalances and allow you to balance particular organs with frequencies matching your individual imbalances.
I also offer Brain Wave “treatments” which are given to balance your brain’s electrical activity. There are 6 Brainwave states, Delta, Theta, Beta, Alpha, Gamma and Epsilon. These different states function when the brain is sleeping, dreaming, deeply relaxing, creating, concentrating and having “peak experiences”. Disturbances in the body can affect our brainwave states and by listening to binaural beats tailored to your “home note”, you can bring your brain’s electrical activity back into balance to improve and heal different symptoms.

Sound healing is a non-invasive, and drug free approach to better health and well-being. Medical research has now advanced to include research on sound healing and its benefits. (See Globe Institute – Medical Sound Association)
I received my certification and sound therapy through the Globe Institute of Sound Healing, the only State Approved College in the entire US.
As a Sound Healer*, I can:
- lead you through sound meditations;
- conduct voice analysis so you get a printout of the state of well-being of all organ systems;
- help you to identify your home note and give you brain wave Binaural Beats to create healing brain waves;
- use tuning fork treatments to help you bring into harmony those frequency systems in your body that are out of balance.
*Sound healing sessions are conducted through Zoom. With musician setting turned on, all frequencies including the higher and lower ranges are transmitted through the Zoom platform.
Frequency Medicine
We are constantly bombarded with discordant, disharmonious frequencies. Negative emotions, noisy environments, stress and anxiety are only a few of this frequency challenges we face every day. All of these stressors pull our system out of harmony, and when this disrupted condition continues long enough, we can start suffering from dis-ease in mind and body. Practitioners of frequency medicine, believe the changes in ourselves caused by disharmony, open the gates for bacteria and viruses to enter and flourish. We also believe that this disharmony interferes with proper functioning of our immune systems.
Treatments
Tuning forks are resonating instruments. They produce a pure frequency. Water which makes up the most significant part of our body and brain, conducts vibrations and frequencies throughout the body and brain when tuning forks are used. Tuning forks open the energy pathways, help to remove blockages, can relieve pain, release tension, and produce alpha brain waves, which brings you into a very deep state of healing correcting imbalances.
Sound baths are another way of bringing the brain and body into harmony even on a cellular level. I use Tibetan bowls of various notes/frequencies to produce a deep state of relaxation and harmony. This will bring you into a very deep meditative state of healing. Science has proven the positive effects of meditation. Some people find it very hard to meditate and relax themselves into a meditative state. Tibetan bowls are a natural way to do this.
Certain sounds and frequencies affect the neural pathways, and they produce more melatonin, serotonin and dopamine. This has been proven through scientific research. Scientists have found that from sound frequencies alter the architecture of the brain, and the benefits are hardwired for life. (“How God Changes Your Brain”)
