When you first get involved with professional sound massage, you may face many questions: Which singing bowl is suitable for sound therapy? Which mallets do I need? Are there any other accessories that should not be missing in the sound massage? You may also be experienced in working with sound and already have some basic equipment. Now you want to expand it with new therapy singing bowls, singing bowl mallets, or other tools.
The pioneer of sound work, Peter Hess, has made it his life’s work to bring the ancient Far Eastern knowledge of sound and rhythm and their healing effects on body, mind, and spirit to people in the West. The Peter Hess® Sound Methods are used today in the fields of wellness and prevention, pedagogy, counseling and coaching, disease support and therapy. In this article we will go into more detail about the therapy possibilities with sound.
Singing bowls produce harmonic tones by rubbing and striking, which penetrate deep into the soul, body and spirit. There are bowls in different sizes and made of different materials. Our guide should help you to get to know the singing bowl types and their applications and to find the right singing bowl for you and your needs.
In order to enjoy the unique sound experience of a singing bowl, the correct application is crucial. The singing bowl itself, its placement, the technique of striking it, the choice of mallet, the space – all these have an effect on the intensity of the sound. Here we give you a few tips on how to use the full sound spectrum of your singing bowl.
Since a singing bowl is a utilitarian object that is frequently handled with the hands, contamination may occur on the surface. Also, the color of the shell may change over time. If you want to keep the golden shine, you should clean your singing bowl about every two months.
The Peter Hess® Therapy Singing Bowl series is optimally adapted to the needs of Peter Hess® Sound Massage and Peter Hess® Sound Methods. These singing bowls are available in different types, which address certain areas of the body particularly well. The individual types each have a characteristic shape and size, as well as sound and vibration quality.
Singing bowls originate from the East Asian region – from China, Japan and Burma. They were often used as signaling devices and everyday objects. In addition, the metal bowls were also used in monasteries as sacrificial vessels or by mendicant monks. They became widespread in Western culture with the hippie movement in the late 1960s. In our article we will give you a brief overview of the history of singing bowls.
A mallet is used to beat, a friction mallet to create friction – but where are the differences in material and form? And how does all this affect the sound? We explain which different mallets and friction mallets are available for gongs and singing bowls and how to use the different variants correctly.
