Vibrational Sound Therapy A powerful approach to health & wellbeing

 
Vibrational Sound Therapy

While many people are just discovering it,  sound therapy is actually a return to ancient practices that used chants and singing bowls to restore health and relieve pain.

Vibrational Sound Therapy (VST) combines ambient sound and vibration through the use of therapeutic Zen singing bowls which are specially designed to send vibrations down into the body.

The therapy is like an inner vibrational massage that induces a state of profound relaxation.

A recent study found that singing bowl therapy reduced stress, anger, depression and fatigue. Other studies have shown that VST helps people with the pain of arthritis, muscle strain and post-operative pain.

It has also been found to improve mobility and stiffness, increase blood circulation, lower blood pressure and heart rate, facilitate the release of endorphins and melatonin, reduce anxiety and synchronize the brain hemispheres. 

"Thank you Ruth, I suffer greatly with pain and nerve damage and your vibrations are really helping me to relax and heal and help remove this from my life." Violet R.

“How do I describe one of the most phenomenal experiences ever! I had a full Vibrational Sound Therapy session today and honestly some of my experiences are still hard to put into words. My Spirit, Mind and Body drank in the vibrations, tones and voice of this incredible session! Truly, you have to experience this healing modality to appreciate my testimony.” Yvonne D.

 

Why do I need a Vibrational Sound Association Licensed Sound Therapist?

The goal of the VSA Licensed Vibrational Sound Therapist Board is to bring legitimacy to the community and encourage state and federal governments to offer this in the future.  


By choosing a VSA Licensed Vibrational Sound Therapist you can be confident in the knowledge your practitioner has completed the VST certification program, has a commitment to continuing education, has current liability insurance, and has passed a thorough background check.

What to Expect

Prior to a Session: 

Please wear comfortable clothing and come well hydrated. Prior to the session you will be asked to remove bulky jewelry and your shoes. The sessions may run a little over time, as first we will have a short intake discussion, and then a little time at the end before you leave.

***Please note that you must be able to climb stairs to take a sound session.


During the session:

The session is done with you lying comfortably on a massage table full clothed (and can also be done sitting in a chair). I will place the therapeutic singing bowls directly on your body, or if more appropriate, near the body. Most clients start to relax as soon as the session begins. Muscles will lose tension, and you may even start to slip into the alpha brain wave pattern - you may daydream or fall asleep - it’s all good. 

After the session:

Drink plenty of water to help eliminate any toxins that may have been released. You may feel energized or may want to take a nap - listen to your body. Please note that the healing will continue to integrate over a few days after the therapy.

What People Are Saying

I would enthusiastically recommend Ruth's sound healing without hesitation. It is apparent in Ruth's approach that she is completely dedicated to helping her clients be the best they can be through a truly holistic method. With her care and concern, she makes a deep connection with those she works with.

“The sound of the bowls is so soothing, The mild vibration coming from the bowls as they are placed on your body is a gentle “buzz”. I was left in a completely calm, meditative state. Two days later I can honestly say that I still feel the benefits of Ruth’s treatment. If you’re feeling stressed out, I urge you to invest in this very special me time.”

— Paulette G.

“All I can say is "Holy Cow!" During my sound therapy session with Ruth, I felt I was taking a ride on a particular sound and didn't want it to get off of it. Being an Energy Healer myself, I experienced holding intense energy in my hands throughout the entire time and could feel it as weight that was released at the end. Ruth is a gentle, amazing sound therapist - I would recommend her to anyone who needs to release emotions with guidance from a truly gifted sound therapy practitioner.”

We are assaulted daily with frequencies and vibrations that are jarring and damaging to our systems. These non-harmonious effects do not stop with the cessation of these disturbances. They can continue to cause low level irritation and anxiety, which is incongruous with our natural state of being. Vibrational Sound Therapy recreates the frequencies and sound patterns found in nature. You feel grounded like you are walking on the beach, sitting by a stream or hiking in the mountains. The oscillations of the therapeutic bowls imitate the ebb and flow of nature, which melt away stress and anxiety - everyday concerns are allayed, your to-do list fades, your mind chatter is silenced.
