1:1 Sound Healing Therapy Sessions
For effectively restoring balance to the whole system (mental, physical, spiritual), and developing awareness of where emotions are seated in the body
Sound Healing Therapy is the application of sound vibration in order to help our body, brain, and nervous system return to emotional and physiological wellbeing.
​
Sound Healing Therapy works on the principle that everything in the Universe vibrates, from the smallest particle to the planets in the solar system, to the billions of stars in our Milky Way galaxies.
These vibrations create patterns of geometric waveforms, frequencies, musical intervals and sounds which can set another body in motion, known as resonance.
​
Here at DIVE Healing, sound healing therapy sessions make use of the vibrations that instruments create to initiate a healing response from the body. When placed on the body, the vibrations from tuning forks, hand chimes or other sound tools like singing bowls and gongs, set up sound waves that travel through the body.
​
The human body is made up of approximately 70% water, hence, sound waves easily travel through like ripples in a pond. These ripples can break up physical blocks like tight muscles, old scarring, or emotional blocks like stuck feelings, and even trauma held deep in the body.
Understanding Sound as Medicine
"Everything is in motion;
nothing is at rest;
everything moves;
everything vibrates"
This saying reflects a universal principle which explains that the differences between different manifestations of Matter, Energy, Mind, and even Spirit, result largely from varying rates of Vibration. Between the poles of ‘higher’ and ‘lower’ vibration, which can appear to be motionless, there are millions upon millions of varying degrees of vibration.
All of our mental formations, our thoughts, words, speech, and sounds; are all VIBRATION; all moving at different vibratory rates.
Vibration affects our cells, organs, blood, bones and everything in between, as well as the biofield-magnetic field of our human body and the surrounding environment.
The use of sound as a proven method for increasing one’s awareness or being mindful, is not new and dates back thousands of years.
By expanding our awareness and deep listening, we can begin to let go of the attachment to what we think “should be happening” and move towards discovering what is happening.
When people are relaxed as a result of practices such as sound healing therapy, their breathing deepens and slows and their stress hormones decrease.
This allows the immune system to function more efficiently, lowering blood pressure, and activating the centres of the brain that release natural opiates.
​
"Currently there is a crisis in healing with many of the old ways, and methods breaking down. Antibiotics and chemotherapy alone are no longer the answer. Healing requires a personal commitment and hard, scary, and oftentimes transformational work. It is a crisis of spirit, calling for change and growth."
~ Ellen Franklin, CEO Kairos Institute of Sound Healing

What type of sound healing therapy do you offer?
The two main systems or approaches of sound healing therapy offered here at DIVE Healing, are known as Biofield Tuning and Acutonics®
​
Biofield tuning predominantly works within the electromagnetic field that surrounds and encases our human body (and is also emanated by all cells of our body), whilst Acutonics® offers a form of sound medicine that draws upon the rich and comprehensive, knowledge, history and practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
In essence, Acutonics® is the practice of acupuncture with sound.
Acupuncture points are known to hold higher levels of electromagnetic charge, and are the key points of entry to the various meridian channels and systems that run throughout our entire body.
The flow of vital nutriments and/or life-force energy through these channels correspond to the state of our health; our organs, blood, spine, nervous system, tissues, cells and everything in between ~ which ultimately affects the expression of our physical, psycho-emotional, meta-physical and/or spiritual health.
​
For more information about the Sound Healing Therapies of Acutonics® and Biofield Tuning, please read on.
What is Acutonics®?
The Acutonics® Healing System draws heavily on the traditions and worldviews of early cultures of the East as well as the intellectual, scientific, and mystical streams of the West, beginning with Pythagoras ~ whose influence and discovery of 'Music of the Spheres' was enormous.
Pythagoras shared the profound discovery of a universal truth concluding that mathematical truths must underlie the principle of the Universe itself ~ in other words, we live in a musical universe rooted in mathematical harmonies. This connecting line between music and mathematics became the axis of the Pythagorean system.
​
The Acutonics® Sound Healing method is unique in the sound therapy field for its integrated approach to holistic healing. It starts with the foundations of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Science and Psychology which provides a comprehensive understanding of the basis of dis-ease.
"In Chinese Medicine terms, the body is a garden dependent on all the elements of water, wood, fire, earth, and metal to work together as a whole for optimal health and well-being."
~ Acutonics Institute of Integrative Medicine.
​
The role of the Sound Healing practitioner is to identify where there is an imbalance and work with the body, mind, and spirit to ease it back into balance. This is accomplished through the application of precision-calibrated tuning forks on specific acupuncture points to access the meridian and chakra energy systems.
​
Using sound and vibration to re-harmonise and attune the human energy field, Acutonics is a non-invasive yet powerful, transformational healing system.
It can help address a wide range of ailments from the physical such as gastrointestinal, gynaecological, respiratory, musculoskeletal, and neurological to psycho-spiritual, emotional, and psychological distress.
​
Here at DIVE Healing, our sound healing practitioner(s) have completed their sound medicine training through the Acutonics® Certification Program to ensure mastery of this method and the highest levels of training in the applied use of sound vibration to the body.
What is Biofield Tuning?
Biofield tuning is a form of sound healing therapy that also utilises high precision tuning forks. The method is based on the understanding that pure energy is electromagnetic radiation, light. It is simply frequency, movement – or put another way, sound. Ultimately, everything is electromagnetic energy vibrating and different frequencies.
Biofield tuning is an energy medicine approach developed by Eileen McKusick, a pioneering researcher, author, and practitioner, who has been teaching this form of sound healing medicine for at least the last two decades.
Energy medicine is a collective term used that refers to a variety of energy techniques, processes, and methods based on the use, modification, and manipulation of energy fields that look at imbalances within an individual’s energy system as well as the energetic influence of thoughts, beliefs, and emotions on the body.
​
For over one hundred years, scientists have shown that cells and tissues generate electromagnetic fields that can be measured on the surface of the skin. All cells generate tiny electrical currents as a result of charge flow that makes life possible. Electrical currents in turn generate tiny magnetic fields in the surrounding space.
An example of this is the electrocardiogram, which uses electrodes on the surface of the body, and informs clinicians about the electrical activities of the heart. Even smaller currents and potentials are picked up around our head with an electroencephalogram (EEG).
In specially shielded rooms, using specific technologies, scientists can also record the tiny magnetic fields originating in the brain or the heart at some distance from the body. All tissues and organs produce specific magnetic pulsations that collectively are called bio-magnetic fields.
​
Biofield Tuning works directly with this system, seeing it as inextricably connected with our conscious and subconscious mind, including our memories. All physical, mental and emotional disorders can be perceived as "dissonance" in our electrical system. Biofield Tuning is able to locate, diminish and resolve this dissonance and in doing so, alleviate and even eradicate the corresponding physical, mental and/or emotional symptoms (McKusick, 2024).
Here at DIVE Healing, our sound healing practitioner(s) have completed their biofield tuning practitioner training through an accredited teacher of the biofield tuning system, overseen by Eileen McKusick, the founder of biofield tuning.
"If we accept that sound is vibration and we know vibration touches every part of our physical being, then we understand that sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell in our bodies"
