A practical and professional online training course which provides you with the skills and knowledge to become a Sound Therapy Practitioner.

Sound therapy is a form of sensory therapy that has been used for centuries. It is wonderful to see how this therapy is gaining traction and growing in popularity, because actually this type of alternative medicine has already been around for thousands of years. Since the ancient times, many different cultures have used music, singing and rhythm, to heal the body and spirit.

Sound Therapy has been shown to be effective in not only supporting relaxation and calm, but also for balancing and attuning our body’s systems. This course will look into the different instruments you can use for a Sound Therapy session and how/why these can be beneficial to a client. This course will give you the understanding that you need to see how Sound Therapy works for use on yourself or for a client. There are many different forms of Sound Therapy techniques, and we will discuss these within the course, but all of these involve using sound waves and vibration to facilitate shifts in our brainwave state.
