Sound Healing Therapies
Background of Faith’s Soundwork
My soundwork is based upon the discovery of the abilities inherent in my own voice in helping re-balance and restore the well-being of my vocal cords that were damaged in an accident over a decade ago. Drawing on my many years of professional experience in holistic techniques, I began to work with my voice and evaluate the effects. The exhilaration and inner peace I experienced when I began to sing and more so in using my voice to chant, led me to the realisation and trust in what was occurring, to be the actual instinctive mechanism of natural abilities, available to assist in one’s own healing process.
Encouraged by events in my own healing, I was further inspired to research, evaluate and practise with the therapeutic benefits of sound and to develop a number of vibrational sound healing techniques. These are now offered to clients in my present therapeutic healing work, listed on the therapy pages. I continue to study and to gain further knowledge of working with sacred sound with the College of Sound Healing.
Chant Traditions
The practice of chanting spans the centuries and are steeped in ritual and sacred ceremony. Every culture and civilization has recognised the healing powers and the power to solve problems inherent in the chanting human voice- the world’s oldest musical instrument. From ancient times up to present day, in the East and West, Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, Jews, Catholic Mystics, indigenous African, Mongolian and American Indians- all practise their own chant traditions, from chants for praising the gods and goddesses of every religion, to chants invoking healing for numerous ailments and illnesses.
Dr Alfred Tomatis, the famous ear specialist and one of the world’s leading pioneers of research into the effects of sound, concludes that the cerebral cortex can become charged or positively stimulated by certain kinds and frequencies of sound. Therefore the practice of chanting can bring energy into the mind and body. The tones and melodies of chants have a powerful and calming affect, and help the person to connect with their inner self and creator.
Benefiting from years of study with medicine elders from the Americas, much of Faith’s soundwork is of Native American Indian origin, and of eastern influence, reminiscent of ancient practise.
As a spiritual, medium, and sound healer, the chants are forms of healing energies that are intuitively felt and offered to the client with the intention to assist them with their own healing.
Faith also works with a variety of natural musical sound instruments, including Himalayan singing bowls, the sea horn (conch), drums, tuning forks and a sounding bowl, in the therapeutic process of harmonising the resonance within another person in order to assist and restore natural balance and well-being. Faith’s celtic harp is her newest instrument.
Faith provides individual sound healings therapy sessions, workshops in various locations, and one- to- one tuition in spiritual development, and is available for talks and demonstrations.

Sounding Bowl Therapy
Vibrational Sound Resonance
This therapy incorporates the use of both Sounding Bowl and voice soundwork.
Sounding bowls are unique in the history of world instruments, partly because their strings run within the resonant space, whereas other instruments have them running above it . A number of types of sounding bowls are in use in therapeutic settings, and used by health professionals and music therapists. The aesthetic qualities, as well as the pure beauty of the sound when played, have lead to deeper levels of emotional engagement, enhancing therapeutic well-being.
Over the past few years, Faith’s work with this unique instrument has brought her insight into how the pure, gentle, subtle tones of the sounding bowl seem to touch the deepest places in the heart and soul. These beautiful sounds seem to form a link between the inner life of the individual and the source of all being. On first seeing the instrument, clients are struck with wonder and anticipation. This receptiveness is instrumental in facilitating the opportunity for healing on many levels, both emotionally and physically.
"I felt a gentleness surround me on a soul level".
"The compositions have brought a feeling of being cocooned and energised by the deep sense of unconditional love that surrounded me".
After consultation, and when the client is either seated or laying comfortably on a therapy couch, the treatment begins with a period of silence to allow a peaceful atmosphere in which the client can then engage with the sound vibrations that follow. These are emitted by both sounding bowl and intuitive healing sounds offered by the sound healer. The effects induce a feeling of being immersed in what can be described as a spiral of heightened consciousness, and an opening up to new levels of inner awareness.
This therapy has been shown to prove beneficial in helping bring clearer thinking and improved cognitive function, helping to give insight and understanding to clients in their day- to- day life and circumstances, whilst also helping tune and energise the subtle energy centres ( chakras ) and helping both emotional and physical conditions.

The Stress Factor.
Stress is possibly the most debilitating condition which exists today and can be the root cause of many illnesses and ailments.
Stress Therapy.
This treatment includes the use of a Himalayan singing bowl that produces an enchanting peaceful sound therapy. The pure sonic waves that ring from the bowl heighten the ability of the client to listen and hear the various sounds ( a rich series of tones). The bowl enhances a meditative state, allowing the body and mind to lock into the bowl’s vibrations, enabling the release of energy blockages to help restore inner balance and well- being.
After consultation, this treatment involves the client either sitting in a comfortable position or laying on a therapy couch while the sound healer plays the singing bowl with the intent to help restore inner resonance. Other instruments may also be included in the treatment in relation to the client’s condition.
Clients report experiencing the sounds as relaxing and calming, and of feeling centred. Some have reported experiencing pain relief, and a release of blockages in the ear canal.Others comment of coming out of a deeper level of relaxation akin to meditation.

Healing Ambient Chants ©
Chanting is the vocal expression of sound at a certain pitch or pitches, and techniques such as overtone chanting, coupled with meditation, have therapeutic powers by establishing and maintaining the tuneful harmony between human and heavenly existence. Characteristic of many of the traditional chant is a deeply felt spirituality, and the belief in the power of sacred sound to create changes in everyday life.
The chants in Faith’s healing session are a form of healing energies that are intuitively felt and offered to the client. As a spiritual, medium, and sound healer, Faith works on the principle of receptiveness and keys into the need of the client, composing a chant that aligns with their own unique vibrational frequency of resonance. The mind/ body respond to the overtones sounded, by locking in or entraining, and begins to vibrate and align at the same frequency, helping to restore natural balance and resonance.
The therapy has a powerful calming effect, and takes one on a sound journey. Some experience the opening of a gateway to another reality of inner awareness.

Voice Analysis
The study of the speaking voice -mankind’s Sonic Tool
The language of voice through the study of the Five Elements:
Earth-Water-Fire-Air-Space-Ether.
Their qualities:
Earth-solid, Water-liquid, Fire-heat, light, warmth, Air-light, invisible, free, flexible, Space-Ether-emptiness.
The five elements allow you to better understand the inner dimensions
Residing deep within every being.
Discover the natural bridges that exist between music and the human being between interior and exterior.
Our voice, the tone in which we speak, not only conveys our intentions but also subtly reveals our inner and outer sounds and the meaning of a number of elements. This affects the vibrations within our human core and auras and of atmospheric qualities around us. Therefore, to improve and alter the quality of energy around us, our homes, our place of work, our social environments, the sounds we emit have a profound effect on all levels of the energy fields. To improve and maintain a steady flow or good quality energy for good health, is to harness and understand these vibrational sound components, and master a measure of equilibrium and of our breath, the vehicle of our sounds.
As each part of the body has its’ own unique frequency of sound resonance, these keynote frequencies compare with the same notes and scales in music in relation to the human energy centres known as Chakras- Root- Sacral- Solar plexus- Heart- Throat- Brow- Crown.
The voice, being the composition sound of the human being,
is representative of all the frequencies in the body.
This treatment involves the use of a sound machine to read the sounds / notes and missing sounds/notes in the energy field of a client. Evaluating the voice analysis reading will detect what tones and sounds are needed to replace the missing notes within the energy centres. With this analysis, it is possible plan a series of therapy and /or give instructions for the client to work with to help replace the missing sounds/notes.
After a month, the progress of working with these sounds are assessed and recorded ,and further progress will be established with the assistance and commitment of the client.
A session lasts approximately one and a half hours for the consultation, therapy, with time for rest and for grounding. The number of sessions required will vary with the clients needs.
Cost: £40- payment by cheque or cash at time of therapy.
