Sound Healing with the Voice

Sound healing is the application of sound frequencies to a person's body, parts of the body or energy field with the aim of catalysing their healing process. What makes sound healing with the voice unique is that the practitioner uses their own voice as the instrument, which gives vocal  sound healing a more personal and nuanced treatment.  

Vocal sound healing is the use of my voice to  create sounds such as toning, chanting, humming or singing scales, combined with intention, intuition and an understanding of the scientific principles behind the use of sound for healing, I aim to clear emotional blocks and move stuck energies and emotions, thereby promoting an increased state of balance, harmony and relaxation. Sound healing can guide the client into their own inner silence,  which is where healing can more readily take place. 

I offer two distinct types of sound healing:

"Passive" Sound Healing

During these treatments, you will lie down on a massage couch fully clothed. We will set the intention for your session after I have taken a brief medical history. I will usually start off by doing some gentle stretching and mobilization of your body to prepare you for the healing. There are several types of treatment, each of which work predominantly on a different aspect of you, e.g. physical, emotional or energetic., and I may "mix and match" these. You may sometimes lie on your back and sometimes on your front, or both.  I will scan your body with my voice and make sounds over your body and/or energy centres with my voice, following where my intuition is drawing me. I sometimes incorporate tuning forks and/or rattles.  

People experience different things during a treatment. Some of these experiences may include seeing colours, emotional releases or energy shifts in certain parts of the body.  Some people, when they are deeply relaxed, may gain insights into their issues and what might help with these. Most people when they come out of a treatment report a sense of increased relxation and wellbeing, and a feeling of being held. I encourage clients to allow and trust in their process - as with other forms of energetic healing, e.g. reiki, the sound tends to go where it is needed and create the healing which is needed by the client at the time. 

"Active" Sound Healing

In this type of sound healing, I will encourage you to actively use your own voice. This is not about learning to sing, but about supporting people to connect more deeply with their own voice and to learn to harness their voice for wellbeing and self-expression. An active sound healng session will give you the opportunity to experience how sounding  can relax the body, open the heart, build confidence and promote emotional wellbeing, and much more. 

I offer these sessions regularly in small groups and 1:1. Upcoming group sessions will be advertised here and on Facebook.
