As Livvy has continued to regress, we have noticed one thing has remained true – her love of music! After getting a facial recently at Nourish Face & Body, the owner Brooke used these chimes during my session that I instantly knew Livvy would love, called Koshi Chimes. We bought a set for her 5th birthday, and hearing them always makes her smile.

After sharing that with Brooke, she asked if Livvy would enjoy a sound bath (or sound healing session). It was something we had never even considered before – she usually just receives music therapy once a month through Hospice of the Valley – but jumped at the chance for her to have a new experience and got it scheduled.

So, what is sound healing? It’s a therapy that uses different sound waves to balance energy in the body and enhances relaxation that taps into your parasympathetic nervous system calming and resting the entire being.

And Livvy LOVED it! She was smiling and taking nice deep breaths through the entire session.

For a child who cannot move on her own or speak for herself and her body is going through SO much internally, we were thrilled to find something she could enjoy so much.

Brooke shared that sound healing improves energy, physical and emotional health and well-being, and can release stuck energy in the body. 

Some other key benefits of sound healing include:

1. Reducing anxiety and depression
2. Enhancing immune function
3. Reducing stress and promoting relaxation
4. Reducing pain and inflammation
5. Improving focus, concentration, and clarity
6. Enhancing mood

Sound healing can benefit people of all ages and health statuses. From those who need relaxation and stress reduction to those with physical and psychological health challenges. It can be particularly helpful for those with chronic pain, anxiety, and depression.
