NEW -SOUND THERAPY TREATMENTS
TUNING FORKS THERAPY AND TIBETAN SINGING BOWLS SOUNDS THERAPY
TUNING FORKS THERAPY
(Introduction Price for 1 hr session - $85.00. Regular price $135.00)
Tuning forks are sound healing tools that are used to alter the biochemistry of our body. During the session, while lying down with the eyes closed, patient focuses on breathing and general relaxation. When the therapist hits the tuning fork, you will feel pulsating vibrations in the air and hear a sound. We are offering various techniques tailored to the client’s needs. Harmony of sounds accompanies the whole session. At the end, we use frequencies to raise the energy in the body so that everyone feels rejuvenated. The tuning fork is a vibration transmitter, but the source of transformation is always a human being. Some people may experience detoxification effects such as fatigue or headache. As these symptoms will pass within a few hours, we recommend drinking water, as it helps to cleanse the body. Most people report feeling relaxed, blissful, happy, and lighter.
SINGING BOWLS MINI GROUP CONCERTS
(Group concert events will be announced)
Singing bowls are metal and crystal bowls used to deepen meditation and promote relaxation. They produce sustained sounds and vibrations when hit or circled with a mallet. Sound therapy and guided meditations often make use of singing bowls. Bowls of varying sizes are placed around the room, around your body, or on your body. Singing bowl therapy falls under the umbrella of sound therapy. Sound therapy incorporates singing, chanting, and instrumental music. It is ancient practice that has become a popular complementary treatment for many physiological and mental health conditions.
In addition to relaxation, people say singing bowl sound therapy can help:
-lessen chronic pain.
-improve sleep
-reduce anger
-improve blood pressure
-improve respiratory rate
-reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression
-improve symptoms of some neurological disorders such as fibromyalgia and Parkinson’s disease
Sound Therapy Treatments Provided by Anna Wasilczyk
On her journey through the everlasting dance of life, inspired by the famous quote of Nicola Tesla "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration", Anna discovered her life passion: energy medicine. For the last five years she has been interested in sound healing therapies. She uses different modalities in her practices from singing bowls, tuning forks, and bio-resonance all of which combine light, sound and frequencies to help our body harmonize. She believes that many diseases have roots in unresolved trauma, negative emotions, stress and general pollution which we all live with. We are multidimensional beings with feelings, emotions and thoughts. To be healthy is to keep our body in harmony with our mind and soul. Quoting after the "Sleeping Prophet", Edgar Cayce, she truly believes "the medicine of the future will be music and sound."

That’s great news for folks who live in urban areas, have limited access to nature, and those with hectic schedules. Whether you venture outdoors one day per week or seven, you’ll reap the rewards.
FOREST THERAPY
Forest bathing and forest therapy (or shinrin-yoku) broadly means taking in, in all of one’s senses, the forest atmosphere. Not simply a walk in the woods, it is the conscious and contemplative practice of being immersed in the sights, sounds and smells of the forest.
Forest bathing isn’t just taking a walk in the woods. And it’s not entirely meditation, It’s about people simply connecting with nature. As you enter the woods – whether that’s a nearby park or a patch of trees in your own backyard – stop for a few quiet moments of deep breathing. Close your eyes, turn your palms forward, and feel the forest around you. It’s okay if your mind wanders, just make a concerted effort to note the smell of the air, any warmth from sunlight streaming through the trees, or any cool breezes against your fingertips.
Amplify the forest’s sounds by using your hands to gently cup your ears forward. Hone in on those sounds – maybe the plop-plop-whoosh of the brook, the rat-a-tat of a woodpecker, or the high-pitched whirring sound that a red squirrel makes. Sniff a clump of damp soil, take a whiff of pine branches, or place your nose on the bark of a tree and inhale. What do certain smells remind you of? Which ones surprise you? Or which ones virtually have no scent at all?
Run your hands over the bark of different trees, rub moss on a tree limb, dip your fingertips in any nearby body of water. Note the differences in the textures – which ones appeal to you more?
Find a bench or simply sit on the ground. Relax and imagine a stream of energy flowing through every element of surrounding nature including you, absorb it, let it heal your body and calm your mind.

HOW TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF TICK BITES AND INFECTIONS
Apply tick repellent to your skin and clothing, especially your shoes and socks.
Wear long pants and pull your socks over your pant leg.
When you’re out, stay on the trail.
When you come home, make sure you do a thorough tick check, focusing on your thighs, groin area and the back of your head. Then shower.
Put the clothing you wore outside in the dryer at high heat for 10 minutes to kill any ticks that may be hiding.
Deer ticks are commonly found on the thighs/groin, while Dog ticks are most commonly found on the head.
Pets are tick magnets, Since dogs are much less likely to stay on the trail, ticks can hide in long hair and thick fur. Make sure you check your dogs as well and talk to your veterinarian about vaccines and other prevention methods.
MY PERSONAL RECOMMENDATION FOR TICK REPELLENT IS PICARIDIN.
