Crystal Singing Bowl Sound Healing

Do you have a desire to take your physical and emotional healing to the next level? Are you looking for a relaxing, meditative healing modality? Have you experienced Crystal Singing Bowl Vibrational Sound Healing?


Our bodies are made up of energetic centers (chakras) that affect both our physical and emotional health. Crystal singing bowls work with the body through the vibrations emitted from the different-sized singing bowls which each correspond to a specific chakra, or energy center, of the body. How does it work? During a singing bowl session, the bowls are struck with a mallet that is then softly dragged around the perimeter to continue emitting the frequencies that cause the bowls to “sing”. The bowls are played in various diverse sequences to assist your body in addressing any stored or blocked energy that needs to be released to restore and clear the energy pathways located at the base of your spine (your root chakra) to the top of your head (your crown chakra). 


But why does it work so well on the body? A Japanese researcher, Masaru Emoto, studied the effects of frequency and vibration by exposing water to different music and then freezing it and observing the shape of the ice crystals under a microscope. The results were surprising as the ice crystals of the water that was exposed to positive energetic vibrations (like classical music) formed into beautifully elaborate geometric patterns, while the water exposed to heavy metal/rock music or negative energetic vibrations reflected disorganized, distorted shapes. This is important because the human body is made up of 70-80% water and therefore can also benefit from receiving positive energetic vibrations through sound. Similarly, a Swiss physician and scientist, Hans Jenny explained the acoustic effects of sound waves (known as cymatics). When sand (silica) was placed on a vibrational platform which was then exposed to the same types of music as the water, the sand formed either beautiful geometric patterns or an unrecognizable, scattered shape based upon the positive or negative sound vibration that was applied. This is important because the nails, blood, and bones of your body ALSO contain silica which responds to the energetic sound vibrations to which they are exposed. 


A sound healing session lasts 60-90 minutes and can be done as a group session or private session. Typically the recipient is reclining on a yoga mat or massage table or sitting in a comfortable chair in a meditative state to allow the body to relax and absorb the vibrational energy – both physically and energetically. As the energy centers and corresponding body organs receive the vibrations, sensations are detected throughout the body during a session. There are a myriad of responses experienced by the body ranging from heat/cold, tingling/buzzing, deep relaxation, to emotional responses such as laughing, crying, euphoria, deep sense of calm, etc. The body will intuitively receive what is needed at the time of the treatment session.


So why not experience the emotional and physical benefits yourself by attending one of our sound healing events.  Many people attend a group session and then proceed to schedule a private session to achieve further healing benefits. Our next event is scheduled for March 20th at 6:30pm. Space is limited to 10-12 people per group session and reservations are required. Call Associated Chiropractic, 656 5th St in Whitehall.
