Short Description
The findings of my research to date have explored various ways in which sound healing can release stuck emotions using the human voice, intention and vibration. My new studies in Chinese medicine complement and extend these to include the use of breath and use of tuning fork on acupuncture points to restore yin/yang balance and harmony.

Because I am a massage therapist I was interested to look at whether people are using tuning forks as a substitute for trigger point therapy. Can the vibration of tuning forks replace massage? My internet research showed a lot of people are using tuning forks to enhance their treatments. I found people are using tuning forks in massage. Research showed tuning forks are used as a treatment by itself and also to enhance other treatments such as trigger points, acupressure and Chinese meridians.

The use of vibration is a powerful tool that not only affects the energy, emotions, & spirit of matter, but matter itself; this is not pseudo-science (as some medias would have you believe) but a documented phenomena that connects sound to colour, to frequency, to every living cell (or parasite for example). The science behind using specific vibrations to resonate small organisms – such as cells, bacteria, & viruses – is documented starting in the 1930's by Royal Raymond Rife. The validity behind Rife's research and life (including his wikipedia article) has come greatly into question by many medical science groups, who have made it difficult for the general public to find concrete information on Rife's life.

Short Description
The term Cymatics was coined by Dr Hans Jenny (1904-1972) and is the study of visible sound and vibration. Dr Jenny was a Swiss doctor, artist, and researcher who pioneered the science of Cymatics. He demonstrated what happens when certain materials like sand, salt, water, and other viscous substances, are placed on vibrating metal plates and membranes, which mirrored forms found throughout nature, art, and architecture. These patterns were created using simple sine wave vibrations (pure tones) within the audible range. So what you see is a physical representation of vibration, or how sound manifests into form through the medium of various materials.

Short Description
Western medicine is turning to the use of sound and vibration to effect the body and health of their patients. This is happening more and more with the help of technology and acceptance around the fact that sound and vibration effect matter. This idea has been around for thousands of years and was used in ancient Egypt. In recent years, equipment has been developed to use sound and vibration as tools for the medical field. Ultrasound machines are used in many ways, bone stimulators and vibrational machines to are used to heal bones, and music is being used to bring comfort and healing to the psyche. All three of these modalities are common and beneficial to the medical field and it's patients.

Short Description
I reflected on this idea of our environment shaping our listening and how that would impact our home and lifestyle. I wondered about people who have never travel ed or who have never lived in another state or country - - do they lose some flexibility in listening? I wondered about people who travel so much for business or who sleep on the streets - - do they find it difficult to stabilize their authentic voice? And I wondered, can we modify our home or lifestyle “accent” by reshaping or “re-sounding” the harmonics of our home?

Overall health may be benefitted by the molecule Nitric Oxide. Nitric Oxide’s role in maintaining health had largely been ignored until recent discoveries of its many roles. In 1992 Nitric Oxide was named Molecule of the Year by the American scientific community. The 1998 Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology was awarded to Robert F. Furchgott, Ferid Murad, and Louis J. Ignarro for their discoveries of the role of nitric oxide in cardiovascular physiology as a critical signaling molecule. In all mammals, nitric oxide is responsible for many physiological changes.

Short Description
This paper concerns the theory that the body's perineurial system is a conduit for transmitting electro-magnetic charges from an external source (from other people and the Schumann Resonance) throughout the system. These transmissions may have an impact, positive or negative, on the body's ability to heal. Some aspects of how this healing may occur as well as ways to access these aspects are discussed.

One treatment that is effective but is not as well researched is brainwave entrainment. Some research indicates that children with ADHD have an excess of theta brainwave activity and an insufficient amount of beta activity. The treatment for this would be to increase beta waves and decrease theta waves. It is also noted that some people with ADHD have high levels of beta activity. In this case, treatment would involve reducing the amount of beta waves.

Brain waves come in a wide array from Gamma waves to Delta waves.
These waves are musered and these measurements are used to provide information on the different states of the brain at certain times. Through examine these waves we are able to understand how they work and how to work with them to promote or lesson the desired effect. With today’s biofeedback technology we are able to work with the brain and have automatic feedback of the activity in the brain.

Short Description
The origins of music in Ancient China are lost to us now, but at least 3,000 years before the birth of Christ they already had a complex and fascinating philosophy of music. To the ancient Chinese, the notes of all music contained an essence of transcendent power. The particular mystical influences of a piece of music depended on factors such as rhythm, melodic patterns, and the combination of instruments used. They felt that music, like nature, could be either beneficial or destructive, and that its power went beyond merely influencing man’s emotions, to actually affecting the health of the physical body, and even the morality of society.
