Vibrational Sound Therapy or VST is a sound therapy approach that pairs the strong vibration of the bowls (on or near the body) with soothing tones made by the bowls to induce a multilayered approach to deep relaxation and a fast, reliable meditative state. 

 

This subtle meditative state has a similar effect to that of powering up the parasympathetic nervous system via the vagus nerve.  The vagus nerve controls unconscious body functions, as well as everything from keeping our heart rate constant and digesting food, to breathing and sweating: all functions of the body that are extremely critical to your overall health.

​

There is much information published today on how pain and tight muscles are not just caused by physical conditions of overused or underused muscles but mainly caused by emotional stress, and the major role it plays in keeping pain chronic.  This gentle sound and vibrational massage approach is a wonderful way to truly help the body release stress at all levels, while also releasing tension in the muscles.
