All around us are forces of energy. The air we breathe, the water we drink, and the foods we eat are all forces of energy. So, too, are the sounds we hear.

            A bird sings, a frog croaks, a bell rings, all these sounds and more elicit a specific response in our minds. Whether we are aware of it or not we are subconsciously taking note and filing away information about the world around us.

            In our daily lives, we are inundated with a variety of sounds. For the most part, we have trained ourselves to filter out the noise of day to day living in a modern society.

            A case in point, how many passing cars do you now single out and count in a day? For the most part you have only made yourself away that there are passing cars and never give them another notice unless something unexpected happens, such as a crash.

            Have you ever noticed how your attention turns to the sound of an automobile crash? For those of you who are parents, even the sound a child calling for its mother can grab your attention.

            This is the world we live in, the world of sound communication.

Tuning Fork Therapy® involves the use of a variety of different tuning forks in a typical healing session. A tuning fork is a metal object that has one handle and two tines. The two tines vibrate when they are struck against another object. 

            The study of sound includes knowledge of sound waves, compression waves and mechanical waves. A sound wave in Tuning Fork Therapy® is created by striking one tuning fork against another surface. This surface can be another tuning fork, the palm of your hand or a tuning fork activator. 

            It is this sound wave that is used to affect the many systems of the physical body. Science tells us that sound waves need matter through which to travel. Matter can be anything including air, water, metals, even a wall. The only thing sound cannot pass through is a vacuum.

We use this knowledge of sound passing through objects and apply them to the use of Tuning Forks on our own bodies. Because our bodies are solid, sound waves pass through the skin, organs, tissues, right down to the very cells of our bodies.

The development of Tuning Fork Therapy® is based on the belief that as sound waves pass through the body, they elicit responses within the body's systems. These systems react to the sound waves and vibrations created and use them to restore to a healthier and more harmonic base.

There have been some remarkable studies on how various cells, especially cancer cells, respond to sound waves. This is a new frontier and we are just beginning to understand how sound waves can be used to help heal our body, mind, and spirit. As more practitioners begin incorporating tuning forks and sound therapy into their practices, more information will be developed and shared in this exciting field.

What I find fascinating is how sound can travel to the brain when one is deaf. This is very interesting and to date there has not been much study on the use of tuning forks on a deaf person.

In Tuning Fork healing, the vibrations of the tuning fork can be just as effective as the sound one hears during the session. In this way, even deaf people can "feel" the sensations and vibrations in their bodies.

Tuning Forks are labeled according to their HZ (cycles per second). A Middle C" tuning fork will be labeled at 512 HZ (512 cycles per second). The Middle "C" tuning fork is associated with the Root Chakra and can help people who suffer from feet, knee and leg problems.

The Middle "C" tuning fork also deals with such emotions as: anger, impulsiveness, insecurity, fear and lack of trust.

Each of the tuning forks that are found in a basic 8 piece set correlates to its own chakra, color and vibration. Tuning forks can be used as a meditative practice, balancing each of the chakra and harmonizing the aura.

Tuning forks can be used to enhance the nutrition of food and water and be used to remove negative and stagnant energy in a room. Vibrating Tuning Forks can used in place of needles on the reflex points and acupuncture points of the body.

While humans benefit from sound therapy, pets and plants can still reap benefits from a tuning fork session.
