Listening to soothing music and words while you’re unconscious on the operating table could mean you wake up in less pain.
That’s the finding from new research, published in The BMJ, which looked at whether playing relaxing music to patients under general anaesthetic had any impact on their recovery.
Astonishingly, it did. The patients who were played the sounds via headphones reported 25 per cent less pain than those who had surgery in silence, the results showed.
Sound Healing uses the power of sound and vibration to restore one's body, mind and spirit to a sense of balance and harmony. Imagine receiving a gentle bath of sounds.
Your relaxation deepens as your body feels the subtle vibrations of singing bowls, bells, chimes, tuning forks, music.
Indigenous cultures understand this and have used some form of sound healing since the beginning of time. Sound Healing has begun to resurface in the modern world and is rapidly finding its way into hospitals, clinics and hospice centers as a powerful means of promoting health and well-being. Sound Healing techniques vary but all involve the application of sound waves and harmonic vibrations to the physical and subtle bodies through the use of instruments.
Everything is vibration.
Every atom, cell, tissue, organ and bone in our bodies is vibrating and that vibration produces sound, whether or not the sound is audible to the human ear.
Really we are a symphony of sounds and vib and are connected to nature through these rhythms and beats.
It makes sense then that if we are all vibrating with sound, we can use sound to promote health in our lives. Through sound, we can change the rhythms of our brain waves, our heart beat and our respiration affecting our overall health not just on a physical level, but emotionally and spiritually as well.
