About Singing Bowls
For thousands of years, the sound and vibrations produced by singing bowls have been used in spiritual practices (meditation, rituals) in Tibet, Nepal, India, as well as a treatment to release muscular tension and stimulate energy flow.
The main set of singing bowls that I am using for Sound Massage are Full Moon Singing Bowls. The bowls are made by hand on a Full Moon evening of each month by enhancing the subtle moon energy for healing vibrations. These handmade Tibetan singing bowls are chosen carefully by sound testing to ensure their healing properties. Traditionally, most singing bowls are made of seven metals that correspond to seven planets and to the vibrations of the human energy centers – chakras. The healing happens when the brain waves become synchronized with the perfect resonance of the bowls.
How Singing Bowls work?
Research studies based on the effects of Tibetan singing bowls on the human body suggests that during sound massage the human brain very quickly transitions to the alpha state, which occurs when we close the eyes, relax, calm down and then disappears when we open the eyes. Alpha rhythm is an important brain biopotential with 8-12Hz fluctuations per second which is close to the frequency of the Earth’s magnetic field at 7.83Hz. In the alpha state, the biological system is in harmony with the Earth’s resonant frequency and the underground magnetic field. Therefore, with the acoustic stimulation of 7.83Hz, natural human recovery processes are activated. The alpha rhythm is a “bridge” between the external consciousness and its deeper levels helping to balance both hemispheres of the brain(left-logical and right-creative), allowing them to work in harmony. By integrating both hemispheres of the brain and allowing them to work in synchronization, the mind become more awakened yet calm, focused, more powerful yet peaceful.
Nowadays, when the pace of life is accelerating and stress levels have become critical, the sound massage with singing bowls has become a wonderful, natural method for relaxation and healing.

What to expect in Sound Massage session?
During the Sound Massage, the bowls are placed on or held directly over the body, then the sound is activated by tapping and stroking the bowls with a wand.The singing bowls produce a harmonic frequency and vibration which spreads from the bottom of the bowl over the entire body and stimulates feeling of peace and deep relaxation. Low and medium vibration bowls are used to massage the lower body, medium and high vibration bowls are used to massage the upper body.This effect works like an internal massage of the body’s cells by loosening any internal tension or blockages.
After singing bowl massage, the receiver often says that they were in a state where the time stopped, that they were in a deep peace with no worries, where the problems, tensions and pains disappeared.
