Sounds Heal!

Both at Barry University in a music appreciation course and at
Educating Hands Massage School I wrote my thesises about
music therapy and how music can alter mood, and aid in healing.
 
Seems a lot more has been discovered in the last 30 years since then!
 
I do use music in my acupuncture practice.

SOUNDS HEALS! -  by: Keith Varnum

Music Medicine Soothes the Soul and the Body

Researchers throughout the world are reporting intriguing new ways
about how sound vibration heals the body, mind, spirit and the
environment. The words people choose to speak and the music people
listen to have profound power to decrease pain, draw people out of
emotional and mental isolation and even clear polluted water. And
scientists are discovering that certain deep space sounds are
amazingly similar to the sounds of dolphins, Tibetan bowls and
human choirs.

Because you can use music, song, vibration and words to
dramatically affect your own health and the well-being of other
people. The impact, potential and mystery of the healing power of
sound is demonstrated in the following heart-warming true stories.

Do you remember the movie "Awakenings?" Based on a true story, the
film features the work of neurologist Dr. Oliver Sacks with
Parkinson's disease patients. Many of these patients whose bodies
had been immobile for decades from the effects of Parkinson's began
groovin' to the sounds of music. Patients who had not left their
wheelchairs for years, got up and began dancing to certain types of
music.

After the success of these patients, Sacks, teamed up with the
music director from the Institute for Physical and Neurologic
Function and has been using music as therapy with miraculous
results. According to the music director, patients who can't walk
"bound out of their chairs and start dancing as long as the music
is present. For people who have motor problems, music acts as a
catalyst."

When a Buddhist priest prayed for an hour over the polluted water
in a lake behind a dam in Japan, the crystalline structure of the
water changed from malformed and distorted to one of immense beauty
and power. The lake was transformed into a healthy source of pure
water. A distinctly visible aura appeared around the water crystals
in photographs.

A music therapy instructor from Yale University tells a
breakthrough story about Jerry, a 26-year-old man who wouldn't
speak, whose mental age was between 2 and 8 and who threw extremely
self-destructive tantrums. Jerry was so transformed by music
therapy that he was able to free himself from his "autistic mold"
and create a way to support himself in the world. What'd he do?
Pairing up with a graphic designer, Jerry launched a profitable
greeting card company. Jerry writes many of the messages and helps
design the cards. Aptly, they name the company "Flew the Coop."

What do the sounds of dolphins, human choirs and Tibetan bowls have
in common? The sounds they make are uncannily similar to tones
found in outer space.

While examining the recordings of spacecrafts Voyager I and II at
the California Institute for Human Science, scientists discover
that sounds produced by the rings of Uranus are virtually identical
to those produced by Tibetan bowls. Sounds emitted by the planet
Jupiter strongly compare to the high- pitched cries of dolphins.
And sounds from the smallest moon of Uranus resemble vocal choirs.

Researchers believe that this similarity is no coincidence. The
cosmic vibrations of dolphins, bowls and choirs are currently being
used to stimulate alignment and healing at the cellular level.

"Tibetan bowls" are used spiritually to assist people to relax plus
the bowl's vibration gently helps "break up" old patterns of
behavior that are no longer useful or healthy.

Hospitals report that newborns who are sung or spoken to on a
regular basis go home 3-5 days earlier and weigh more than babies
who aren't exposed to specific periods of adult speech or song. 50%
of women who listen to music during childbirth don't need
anesthesia.

We are only hearing the first few bars in the symphony of healing
that awaits humanity as we open to the dynamic harmonious effects
of sound.
