We don't use singing bowls because sound therapy is not our specialty.
We like singing
bowls because they point to Bodywork's long heritage. Singing bowls also hint
at the holistic nature of good health, the power of the mind and of choices we
make.
A study into
the efficacy of singing bowls, found no difference in pain relief, between
singing bowls and placebo. The study did find both placebo and singing bowls,
had significant positive effect, when compared to untreated control groups [1].
There is
science to validate sound therapy, if you have the time ... why else would music
be so good. Sound therapy is the reasoning for music at Bigfoot.
If you are
interested in singing bowls and want to look further, there are options in
Perth, for you to explore [2].
You can
replicate the sound of a singing bowl, by running your finger around the top of
a wine glass. Do wine glasses sound better when half full?
