A therapeutic sound project is being conducted in many cities in the US and other countries. This bio-feedback method uses sound, or more precisely frequency or vibration, to restore balance to the human system and thereby influence health on many levels. This alternative therapy offers help without pharmaceutical drugs, invasive surgeries, or drastic psychiatric treatments like electrical shock.
Medical research has shown how effective a positive attitude is toward maintaining health. It's been demonstrated that laughter is a wonderful stress reliever and mood changer. The emotional state of a person often dictates how well they will recover from a trauma or illness.
The philosophy of this discipline states that all matter has resonance. Since atoms are in constant motion, core vibrations affect the whole system. Bio-feedback research tracks brain waves, muscle reactions, hormonal release (like adrenaline and cortisol, which increase inner tension), voice patterns, pulse rates, and other physical or mental reactions to external stimuli.
This is a fascinating subject and one which seems to be validated by common sense and personal experience. Almost everyone will have, at some time, been uplifted by a lively tune or soothed by a lullaby. People naturally want to move to a strong beat, dancing or tapping their feet or fingers in time. These responses, as well as a dislike of angry voices or jumping at sudden explosions, show how sound and vibration can affect people mentally, physically, and emotionally.
Conditions that respond to this form of therapy include mood disorders. Adolescents often become 'moody' under the stresses of the many demands society places on them. Millions of people of all ages suffer from depression, which robs life of meaning and happiness. It's been proved that being depressed is bad for total health. Stroke victims or paralytics often fail to improve when they are really only emotionally crippled.
Parents who have a child who does not socialize well, has trouble with learning or focusing, and is not able to communicate effectively might be hesitant to try drugs, fearing their long-term effects as well as believing they merely mask symptoms of an underlying problem. Seeking help from a sound therapy professional might be a very positive first step when looking for help.
Music is not only listening, of course. People find enjoyment, enrichment, and achievement in playing an instrument, dancing or just moving in time to the rhythm, singing, and composing music. Spiritual songs are known to develop peace, a sense of community, and a feeling of connection to outside forces. Therapists believe that each person has a unique resonance and will therefore experience recovery in an individual way. They use their skill to help people find what will help them thrive.
Finding a sound therapist is like finding any source of medical or psychiatric help. People must select the depth and intensity of the treatment they feel appropriate. Everything from learning a musical instrument or taking a dance class to clinical sessions can come under the umbrella of sound therapy. It's reassuring to know that many different approaches are available in the city to provide relief to people unable to cope alone.
