Sound Therapy

Sound Therapy is a form of sensory therapy that focuses on the use of sound to restore healthy vibrations in the human body with the aim of promoting better health. Science recognises that everything in our Universe is energy vibrating at different frequencies. Sound Therapy is the practice of using these frequencies of sound waves to restore and balance the energy of the human body as the sound passes through it.

The roots of Sound Therapy are thought to originate in Tibetan and Himalayan cultures. In ancient civilisations such as Ancient Greeks, Egyptians, Indians and Chineses sound was revered for its powerful effect on the mind, body and spirit.

Indigenous cultures across the world have long recognised the therapeutic properties of sound. The first known use of music and sound as a therapy and healing tool is the Didgeridoo used by the Australian Aborigines and dates back over 40,000 years.

Shamanic traditions such as those found in Native American and African cultures incorporated various modalities of sound to enter trance state, commune with spirit and facilitate physical and emotional healing. These traditions recognised that sound could reach deep within the human psyche, bringing about profound transformation and restoration.

The Little Healing Garden specialises in Body/ Energy Therapy using a combination of instruments such as Tuning Forks, Tibetan Singing Bowls, Gongs, Chimes, Tingsha bells and Crystal Pyramids to bring about profound relaxation for the client, removing energy blocks, balancing the Chakra and restoring the body to its natural rhythm.

Reiki

Reiki means ‘ Universal Life Force Energy’ it originates from Japan and dates back to the teachings of Mikao Usui in 1920’s. Reiki is a gentle form of energy healing which is received laying in the therapy bed.

Reiki is channelled through the therapist to the client by means of a non-intrusive gentle touch and is deeply relaxing. Reiki helps to restore balance to the mind, body and emotions by removing blockages from the body’s energy system and realigning the chakras.

It restores balance to the flow of energy (Chi) throughout the energetic field and the physical body and can assist in treating mental, physical and emotional trauma. Reiki induces a sense of deep relaxation, reduces stress and allows the body to heal itself promoting an overall improvement in general wellbeing.

Indian Head Massage

Indian head massage is based on the Ayurvedic system of healing which has been practiced in India for over a thousand years. The aim of the Indian head massage is to release stress that has accumulated in the tissues, muscles and joints of the head, face, neck and shoulders.

The client sits in the massage chair while the therapist uses a range of massage techniques, including kneading and compression over the neck, shoulders and scalp. The client will then relax on the therapy bed while the therapist gentle stimulates and strokes pressure points on the face. Indian head massage is especially good for relieving stress, tension, fatigue, insomnia, headaches, migraine and sinusitis.

The experience is deep relaxing, leaving the client feeling energised and revitalised, and better able to concentrate.
