From Galaxies to Cells: Bridging Science, Sound Vibration and Consiousness Through the Music of the Spheres
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of working with a sound healing methodology that is rooted in 0 riental Medicine but integrates the therapeuric use of tuning forks, which are tuned to the frequencies of the earth, moon, sun and planets, in place of or in conjunction with acupuncture needles, acupressure, chiropractic, physical therapy, or various massage techniques. Drawing on Oriental Medicine, archetypes, correspondences, and sympathies, the authors presem a case for the use of a sound healing methodology in a clinical setting. At the core, our work recognizes the profound universal connections between the natural world, body, mind, and spirit, and the role that they each play in our jOllrney toward wholeness -attunement or at-one-mem with all things. This paper does not attempt to prove the efficacy of Oriental Medicine. There have been many fine studies conducted by leading research institutes that speak to the value and growing acceptance of this ancient medicine, as a viable medical system. Rather, we will demonstrate how a basic understanding of Oriental Medicine combined with knowledge of human physiology, music theory, and the power of archerypes, myths, sympathies, and correspondences create a powerful vehicle for health care delivery.
