About Sound Therapy
Sound massage is rooted in ancient eastern practices and modern scientific research using Tibetan Singing Bowls. The bowls of varying sizes and frequencies are placed on key areas of your body and played by the practitioner to send a flow of sound and vibration through your body's meridian points and chakras.
This gentle sound vibrational experience will soothingly massage your cells to encourage harmonization, deep relaxation and bring your body into balance by promoting circulation and energy flow. The frequency of the sound synchronizes with the brain waves and activates destress responses in your body. The Peter Hess Sound Massage Therapy is a sequence of playing singing bowls placed on specific areas of a fully clothed body. As the bowls are played, your body is bathed in healing sound waves as the sound travels through the energetic and physical body systems releasing blockages and re-balancing their natural rhythm. It has been found that sound can be an effective healing modality for a range of mental, emotional and even physical bodily ailments. It has been an effective in relieving symptoms of depression, anxiety and PTSD. In the removal of blockages in your body, sound therapy has also been known to assist in lessening the effects of high blood pressure, stress, sleep disorders, pain and autism. |
What to Expect
Your visual experience will be much like that of a traditional therapeutic massage, with the addition of a beautiful display of Tibetan signing bowls. You will be asked to find your way into comfortable positions lying on your front body as well as transitioning onto your back throughout the course of the session. Unlike a traditional therapeutic massage, you will remain fully clothed throughout the entire session.
The room will be completely silent as to allow for the vibrational energies of the sound bowls to ring truly and freely. There won't be any music playing or even diffusers diffusing...but trust us, you won't miss those familiar things. You'll be so enveloped in the sounds and sensations the playing of the singing bowls shares that you won't even question the { golden } silence. You'll feel a warmth emanating from the massage table below as you release all tension from the body. You'll be offered a the cover of a sheet or blanket for comfort or warmth. Maggie, your practitioner, will begin to place the hand-hammered Tibetan singing bowls on the varying meridian and chakra points throughout your body, while both gently and firmly striking the bowls to engage them into vibrational healing. As you begin to feel these vibrations moving throughout your body, you may feel pulses or waves which is completely normal, as your body releases tensions through the energy pathways in your body and your chakras begin to return to their ever-spinning balanced state. The sound emanating from the bowls is just as healing as the energetic waves running through your body. |

Preparing For Your Session
Preparing for your session is easy!
Why? Well, there really isn't any prep work to do - but here's a few tips!
- As with any of our services or classes, we suggest that you maintain proper hydration. If your body is thirsting for water, you may experience moodiness, lack of concentration, lightheadedness and fatigue. A lack of fluids and electrolytes in your system can cause muscle cramping and even constipation - so PSA from us at Sheer Blue -- Drink Your Water!
- Avoid super-bulky clothing. As the bowls are placed on your body, it is important that they have a good connection so that the sound and vibration is hindered by as few external factors as possible. Try to avoid big, bulky sweaters or sweatshirts, or too many layers. We promise to have it super cozy and comfortable in the studio. Maggie also offers a heating pad infused with tourmaline and amethyst, along with sheets or blankets that are sure to keep you comfy cozy for the duration of your session.
- Following your session, you may take a few moments to just rest, to enjoy the zen feeling within your body. You'll leave the studio feeling very light, refreshed and completely amazing. We suggest that you take the rest of the day, if you can, to do restful, relaxing activities. Try to avoid heading right back to work, or sitting right back down at your computer. Instead, try to plan for some additional relaxing activities. Maybe taking a walk outside with the family, or curling up with a good book, or grabbing that journal to write your thoughts and feelings or heck, even taking a nice warm bubble bath!
- And, of course...you knew this was coming....Hydrate! Keep your body in a state of calm and ultimate functionality by giving it the nourishing hydration it needs.
- Schedule your next appointment with Maggie! Or give our Reiki or Myofascial Release Massage treatments a try. Love your bodies, friends!
