Benefits of Sound sessions

When the brain is given a stimulus it sends out an electrical charge in response known as the cortical evoked response. By repeating the stimulus the brain will eventually synchronise the electrical cycles to the same rhythm being created. This is known as Frequency Following Response. Sound Practitioners work within the brainwave frequencies that are specifically known to trigger relaxation, deep meditation and transcendental states. 

Benefits and potential outcomes of sound healing can include:

  • Triggering a relaxation response

  • Calm the central nervous system

  • Balance left and right hemispheres of the brain

  • Balance and harmonise mind and body

  • Improve sleep

  • Lessen anxieties

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Restore energy circulation

  • Increase focus and/or productivity

  • Improve physical, emotional health and well-being

    Brainwave Frequency Hertz States

    Gamma  25 – 100 Heightened awareness

    Beta  13 - 24 Problem solving

    Alpha  8 - 12 Relaxed reflection

    Theta  4 - 7 Meditation, light sleep, creativity

    Delta  Up to 4 Deep, dreamless sleep

    Humans are attuned to the magnetic field of the planet at 7.8 Hertz. Deep relaxation states can be reached within the Alpha and Theta frequencies.

There are many proven benefits from sound healing, using both natural and man made instruments. In keeping with my love of the natural world, several of my instruments and sounds are created from materials from the earth or natural objects.

In my own practice I have observed first hand deep relaxation, lowered stress levels, reduced anxiety, and reduction or disappearance of inflammation, increased happiness and improved sleep.
