Finding A Therapeutic Sound Project

By Jaclyn Hurley


Many people probably haven't even heard of a therapeutic sound project, but this bio-feedback form of alternative therapy for emotional and mental dysfunction is a well-researched and tested treatment. The internet is a good source of information on the principles of the method and practitioner in or near your city. This approach is based on sound, or rather frequency, and its accompanying resonance.

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.

Sound therapy is a recognized field based on the human body's response to external frequencies or resonances. Researchers in this area believe that all matter has resonance. They point to the fact that atoms are in perpetual motion and that everything has a measurable vibration. Biofeedback technology tracks brainwaves, voice patterns, pulse, and other indications of emotional and physical conditions. Trained therapists interpret that information.

This is a fascinating subject and one which seems to be validated by common sense and personal experience. Almost everyone will have, at some time, been uplifted by a lively tune or soothed by a lullaby. People naturally want to move to a strong beat, dancing or tapping their feet or fingers in time. These responses, as well as a dislike of angry voices or jumping at sudden explosions, show how sound and vibration can affect people mentally, physically, and emotionally.

Some conditions that are commonly treated are mood disorders in adolescents, learning and focusing difficulties in children, despondency in stroke or cancer victims who are physically impaired, and depression. People under stress - teenagers trying to cope with hormonal changes and peer pressure, the seriously ill, people who feel they cannot cope with life's demands - often suffer declines in health and total well-being.

Many children have trouble focusing, learning, socializing, or communicating with their parents and their peers. It makes sense to try a gentler approach than medication, at least as a first response. Music has no side effects and has been proved to benefit people of all ages who need to engage, relate, or relax. It effects emotions, physical conditions, and mental states in people of all age groups.

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.
