By Marjorie De Muynck

Sound Healing is a practical application manual for integrating tuning forks into your healing practice. Second Edition features a new 8-page instructional color section and introduces more than thirty new treatment photos. In addition, twenty illustrations show treatment protocol for the physical (and energetic) body, utilizing acu-points and anatomical placements.

Learn additional treatment applications for common ailments such as headache, tennis elbow, strained or cramping muscles—even how to lengthen and extend a yoga pose. Close-up photos demonstrate correct hand positioning and body mechanics when activating and applying tuning forks. Chair Massage applications show how to apply and direct vibration to alleviate tension, relax shoulder and neck, and includes a Cranial Sacral application. Singing bowl applications along spine relax the musculature and help realign the vertebra. New Sport Therapy applications feature acupressure points (ST 36, SP 3, Kidney Chest Points) chosen to help regulate the transportation of energy in the body, and to ease joint stiffness and pain.

PRAISE FOR SOUND HEALING

For several years, I have included sound therapy and tuning forks in patient treatment as part of a clinical research program. Ohm Tuning Forks have proved beneficial to ease stress and tension. Patients not only enjoy the treatments but it provides an educational opportunity to highlight the healing aspects of integrative therapies. Ohm Therapeutics products and support services are professional, reliable, and a pleasure to use.

"Ohm Tuning Forks are an essential part of my acupuncture treatments. I use them to stimulate all points that are needled during the treatment to gently stimulate and deepen the point’s healing effectiveness, and to tonify the adrenal glands along the kidney channel and boost the immune system along the spleen and stomach channels.

I have treated the following with great success: ganglion cysts, arthritic toes and hands, as well as neuromas and neuropathy related feet pain."

~ MARGIE PAROLISI, PHD, NCCAOM CERTIFIED PRACTITIONER OF ORIENTAL MEDICINE

As a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, I often incorporate these acu-points into the sound healing treatments I give. The sound vibration of the Ohm Tuning Fork is unifying and brings harmony to both heart and mind.

Marjorie de Muynck’s Manual & DVD are fantastic educational tools for both the health care professional & anyone intent on learning to use sound for personal benefit."

"Integrating the use of tuning forks into your massage session can help your clients reach a deep state of relaxation and experience a restored sense of well-being. I used two Mid Ohm Tuning Forks symmetrically on acupressure points with the intention to move stagnant energy. I also tried them for relieving joint pain in combination with de Muynck’s CD, There’s No Place like Ohm, and found them beautifully effective."

~ MASSAGE THERAPY JOURNAL

The Ohm and Luna Tuning Forks afford a simple yet effective method of enriching one’s sound practice. Listen to the harmonic resonance of the tuning forks to enliven and enhance one’s mood and neurophysiology. Where applied, these weighted tuning forks bring their resonant frequencies directly and deeply into tissue and cells, affecting the movement, alignment and integration of internal healing energies.

Ohm Therapeutics Tuning Forks have become an indispensable part of my healing tool kit. Many patients proclaim how much better they feel right away and that it is the favorite part of their treatment. The tuning forks work, patients love the treatment, and it resonates with people on a very deep and profound level to initiate healing.

"While music in the key of Ohm plays, the application of the Ohm Tuning Forks literally attune the physical, environmental and spiritual elements of one’s being. The body feels whole, relaxed and balanced. As a homeopath I understand the function of resonant properties in healing.

The treatment experience is totally fluid and grounded at the same time. There is a definite awareness that the healing channels of the body have been awakened."

"Sound Healing is the perfect musical mojo for a world that is out of sync with the melody of the earth. Not just for the professional practitioner, this Manual and DVD are as indispensable as the Ohm tools described; it is a gift to a world much in need of re-tuning with earth-song. A sound innovator whose training spans the gap between tribal and classical methods, de Muynck adds to the ancient instruments traditionally used to maintain the important synchrony of the human body and the earth."

~ KAREN GUERIN

POLARITY, SOUND HEALING, AND CRANIAL-SACRAL PRACTITIONER, POET AND EDUCATOR

"The healing sound Ohm is universal sound, cosmic sound, and it is soundless sound. Ohm opens the doors of perception of inner healing. Use Ohm Tuning Fork on specific marma points to open the inner pathways of healing. We carry our genetic code, our prakruti (constitution), in the DNA. This Ohm sound balances the DNA (the doshas) because the DNA recognizes this sound and unfolds inner cellular healing."

AUTHOR OF AYURVEDA: SCIENCE OF SELF-HEALING, TEXTBOOK OF AYURVEDA SERIES

"Ohm Therapeutics is an integral part of my acupuncture practice. After I place the needles, I tone the tuning forks and have my patients listen to the Ohm vibration, and then place the tuning forks near the points I have needled. A sympathetic resonance seems to occur when the tuning forks are used in conjunction with the needles; the vibration travels deeply to quicken the flow of Qi through the energetic pathways. Other beneficial points include master and couple points of the extraordinary meridians, source points, and Window of the Sky points.

I also get great results using the tuning forks on patients who have an aversion to needles. And pediatric patients love the tuning forks!"
