Tuning Forks Level 1: Accessing the Extraordinary Vessels

Tuning fork therapy is based on the principles of sound healing and the knowledge of acupressure points and the chakras. When tuning forks are placed on specific acupressure points they access the innate wisdom of the complete being (body, mind & soul) to create opportunities for perfect health and balance for that individual’s development.
Students will be introduced to the theory of sound healing and the infinite healing powers of the extraordinary vessels. Students will learn to give and receive a sound healing session using tuning forks.
Students require 2 Mid Ohm tuning forks. A Professional Activator Belt is recommended.
