Quartz Crystal Bowls
The enchanting Sound of quartz crystal bowls was only recently discovered in 1994 by Gaudry and Pauline Normand. Originally used as containers to grow silicon crystals for computer chips, these bowls possess unique acoustic properties that create beautiful and powerful Sounds. The Normands recognised their potential as therapeutic instruments, pioneering their use in Sound healing practices.
Interestingly, the human body's high water content and crystalline bone structure make us particularly receptive to the vibrations of crystal bowls. Some practitioners believe these vibrations penetrate the body more intensely than metal bowls, creating a profound sense of relaxation and well-being.
The Rainstick
The rainstick has a long history across cultures traditionally used to invoke rain, and that’s exactly what it Sounds like - falling rain. The rainstick's Sound varies depending on its origin and construction (usually dried cactus, bamboo, or reeds filled with pebbles or seeds). The rainstick is definitely a favourite sound, that so many clients are intrigued by. In Tibet, a story tells of an oracle who, in 1947, used a rainstick ceremony to allegedly end a severe drought. Shamans also use rainsticks to clear stagnant or negative energies, underscoring the instrument's power beyond mere Sound.
