Peter Hess ® Sound Massage is a unique holistic method of working with Sound & Vibration. Sound Massage is based on the ancient knowledge of Eastern and indigenous Sound Healing ceremonies but has been especially developed to cater for the needs of the Western world.
According to many spiritual and religious philosophies man was created from sound, he is sound. If a human being is "in tune" with himself and his environment, then he or she is able to arrange his/her life freely, happily and creatively.
Since the early eighties Peter Hess, a German engineering graduate in physical science & technology, has been looking deeper into the effect that music, sound and rhythm have on the human mind & body.
He made numerous trips to India, Nepal and Tibet. Experiences with traditional healers and observations of the Newar, the oldest ethnic group in the Kathmandu valley, demonstrated to him the importance of sound in traditional healing. Based on his manifold personal experiences and inspired by his investigations and experiments he developed the Peter Hess ® Sound Massage with Singing Bowls. Ongoing scientific research and a constant exchange through an open feedback system of trained Practitioners form the basis for its growing success. The Sound Massage is very well suited for private use as well as professional application.
Benefits of the Peter Hess ® Sound massage are tied to the placement of the Singing Bowls. Peter Hess ® therapeutic Singing Bowls are positioned on and around the dressed body and gently tapped with mallets specifically designed for this application. In this process, the resulting sounds induce audible and perceptible impulses. Due in part to the low frequencies of the harmonic sounds, the subject is rapidly transformed into a soothing state of deep relaxation. In many patients, this develops into a sense of self-confidence, security and self-reliance. Furthermore the finer, higher vibrations also stimulate body fluids, and set in motion, effectively penetrate to the cellular level. These gentle vibrations can then gently loosen tense muscles, stimulate circulation and have a soothing effect upon deep facial tissue allowing regenerative processes to take place at all levels- physically, mentally and emotionally.
