Sound Bath Healing

The use of vibration for relaxation and healing goes back to the Egyptians in their pyramids. There’s no need to be transported in space and time, however. Experience a Sound Bath with Shura right here in Ithaca and allow the vibrations of Himalayan singing bowls, drums and toning lead you into a state of deep relaxation, where sound frequencies slow down brain waves to a deeply restorative state, activating the body's system of self-healing.

During a sound bath session, I create a meditative experience for the client where they are bathed in different sound wavelengths. I follow my intuition and produce waves using my voice, drums, chimes and Himalayan singing bowls.  Among the benefits are relaxation, an increased sense of wellbeing, expanded awareness, and access to inner visionary experiences. A sound bath is also another way to free energy blockages, similar to what occurs in an energy balancing session, but with less direction from me or the client.

The use of Tibetan Singing Bowls as a healing art dates back over 2,500 years, and comes from the Himalayan regions of Tibet, India and Nepal. This modality has been recently brought to the Western world, with techniques and methodology to support wellbeing. The bowls are made from an alloy of seven metals and are a type of bell that can be struck or rubbed to create sound waves. I place bowls on and around a client to facilitate outcomes including reduction of stress and anxiety, decreased pain, increased energy and alertness, decreased depression and improved sleep. Clients say that they feel simultaneously deeply relaxed and energized after a session.
