What to Expect

Start the session with an optional Tibetan standing singing bowl experience.  This is where you stand inside a large bell-metal bronze bowl, hit the side of the bowl with a gong mallet, and fill the vibrations from your feet to your head.

Then set your intension such as reduce anxiety, improve sleep, grounding, speaking your truth, gut health, etc. (You may have more than 1 intension.)  You may choose to set your intension while standing in the Tibetan singing bowl. If your intention is unknown, we can set it as overall wellness.

Lie down fully clothed on the massage table.  You may choose to get under the covers or lie on top of the table with or without a blanket.

As you lie relaxed on the bed, Tammy will play sound instruments such as crystal bowls, koshi chimes, gong, ocean drum, and other sound instruments with the sound "bathing" over you.  The crystal sound bowls are set to specific frequencies which match its correlating chakra.  This puts you in a meditative state to leave relaxed and hopefully your intensions realized.

You may stay awake, fall asleep or wear disposable ear plugs.  Whichever way you experience the sound bath, the vibration frequencies will do their work.

While sound baths do not cure anything, studies have shown that sound baths can help reduce the symptoms of Lyme's Disease, Fibromyalgia, chronic pain, stress, etc.

This is a different type of sound bath centered on the needs of your child (or you).  While the purpose is to use crystal bowls to concentrate on specific needs (anxiety, sleep, communication, etc.), the method varies.  

This session is shorter, 30 minutes, due to neurodivergent kids normally can't tolerate longer.  5-10 minutes will be spent at the beginning explaining and showing your child what instruments I will be playing and what a crystal singing bowl sounds like.  Your child has a choice in how they participate.  They can choose to play accompanying instruments such as a tongue drum, ocean drum, a Vegan Sharman Moon drum, nut chimes, and/or a rain stick. Alternatively, they may lie or sit on the massage table with disposable ear plugs resting or coloring.  Whatever method, the crystal sound bowls I will be using and their targeted frequencies still impact the nervous system and chakras.  After 20ish minutes, your child and I will either discuss the experience or they may draw what they are feeling.

As a parent, you may sit in the lobby with a provided monitor to see the session, remain in the room if your child needs you to, or attend a CYC class.

I recommend 2, 30-minute sessions to check results.  

This is  a combined Reiki and Sound Session.  After short discussion/intension setting, you will experience a 25-35 minute Reiki session.  Continuing to lie on the Reiki bed, you will experience a 20-30 minute sound bath.  

While Reiki and sound are each shorter, it's a great way to experience both in 60-75 minutes.  While Reiki alone shifts your energy, sound afterwards allows for additional focus for any previously blocked Chakra areas.
