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.
The emotional state of a person has substantial impact on total health. Actual studies have shown that laughter is good for people. A positive attitude, stress reduction, and social interaction have also been studied and proved to be beneficial. Sound has an effect on the emotions, which people have known for centuries.
There are different kinds of resonance. Scientists know that humans, animals, and even plants respond to external vibrations. Sound therapy is based on the belief that everything has its own frequency, its own resonance. Atoms are in constant motion, colliding and moving closer and farther away from each other. Physicists say that this movement is the basis of all energy. Biofeedback tracks pulse, heartbeat, brain waves, voice patterns, and other indications of responses on the emotional, mental, and physical level.
Common sense seems to validate the scientific findings. Think of mothers soothing babies with lullabies, or rock bands electrifying whole audiences with a heavy beat and repetitive lyrics. People naturally sway, tap their feet, move their hands and heads, and otherwise keep time with the music, whether peaceful or energizing. Many find the rhythmic roll of waves on the seashore or the sound of water running over rocks relaxing.
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.
