Tuning Forks for Sound Healing

Tuning forks can help the body and mind to gently relax out of the normal stress responses that we have acquired out of habit. They are non-invasive, easy to learn and very efficient. Therapists report that tuning forks have shown beneficial results for PTSD, depression, anxiety, digestive problems, pain and emotional discordance. Tuning forks can be found as a stand alone treatment or a supplementary modality.

Using a Tuning Fork for Healing

Tuning forks can be used to balance the energy fields of the body. By striking a tuning fork and moving it around the body through the aura, the different fields of the body’s biomagnetic energy field (biofield) react to the powerful vibration of the fork. The concept of the therapy is that when traumatic experiences occur on physical, mental and emotional levels, it will reflect in the biofield as a sort of disturbance. The biofield is associated with the health of the physical body so any dissonance in the biofield can contribute to or be a symptom of ill health. Tuning forks can be used diagnostically by combing through the field and listening for fluctuations in the vibration of the fork. That area can then be treated therapeutically with the tuning fork as the field resonates with the vibration of the fork. Tuning forks can be moved around the body or touching the body with the bottom stem.

What are Tuning Forks?

When struck, the tines of a tuning fork vibrate back and forth at such a high rate that they hit air molecules that crash into eachother creating sound when they reach our eardrums. The sound generated is measured in hertz (hz.) The differences in size, weight and shape cause the fork to vibrate differently therefore they are a different pitch. There are two kinds of tuning forks, weighted and unweighted.

Weighted forks have cylindrical weights on top of the tines. The weights muffle the sound as they push the vibration down into the stem to be transferred directly into the body. Unweighted forks do not have weights and so create a clear tone and are typically used to comb through the field around the body.

Tuning Forks for Chakras

There are seven chakras in the human body energy system. They are like flashlights that shine out the front and the back of the body. Each is responsible for different aspects of the human physiological behavioral system. Each is represented by a different color, musical note and frequency, and they are as follows:

In Sanskrit, the word chakra means wheel. The Hindus describe chakras as spinning wheels of light and color. The benefits of clear and balanced chakras are improved circulation, reduced inflammation and increased energy available for the body. When held and moved above the chakra a resonance effect takes place where the chakra entrains with the pulsating overtones of the tuning fork. In this way the chakra is opened and balanced.

Tuning Fork Facials

Tuning forks are also used on the face as part of massage therapy. After being struck on a hockey puck to activate the sound and vibration, the stem can be placed on different muscles of the face, having a relaxing and rejuvenating effect. Another benefit is that they aid lymphatic drainage which can be of benefit to the health of the skin.

Conclusion

Tuning forks used as sound therapy can facilitate the health of the body by increasing circulation and balancing the body’s own energy flow throughout. It calms and relieves muscle tension. When combed through the body’s biofield, tuning forks can be used diagnostically as well as therapeutically. The frequency and vibration of different forks can be utilized for different areas of the body. Tuning fork therapy is non-invasive and can have lasting benefits toward a healthy body.
