Singing bowl massage: effect, application and advantages
Many people have heard of Tibetan singing bowls and may have even held one in their hands, but few have detailed knowledge of the singing bowls from distant cultures. They are used for meditation and singing bowl massage, and their concentrated sound is said to bring clarity to the mind. The shells weigh about 150 grams to several kilograms and have a diameter of 5 cm to about 35 cm. There are also specimens that are even heavier and larger. Depending on the area of manufacture and religious influences, different metals were used for the alloy.
The singing bowl massage is based on the ancient knowledge of the effects of sounds, which was used in Indian healing therapy more than 5000 years ago. According to Eastern ideas, man was created from sound, ie he is sound. If a person is "in harmony" with himself and his environment, then he is able to shape his life freely and creatively.
Singing bowl massage application
Our bodies are mostly made up of fluids, and we know that water responds to vibrations in patterns. Water is life, liquids are closely related to the health of our nervous system at the cellular level. During a singing bowl massage, singing bowls are placed on the body. The sound waves and the tones created by the attack have a calming effect on the mind.
The massage can take place on the floor or on a couch. The masseur should be well-groomed and radiate a pleasant calm and positive serenity to you. The massage on the floor can be performed on a soft surface that is comfortable for you. The entire floor can be used as storage space. A couch does not offer that much space, the masseur should be able to approach you from all sides. The couches offer the therapist the advantage that they are height-adjustable and therefore more comfortable, especially with many sound massages. He can sound massage you sitting and lying down.
Now it's time to select the shells. He will work with you to choose the bowls that are right for you and tap them briefly to determine whether they are comfortable for you. Once the bowls have been selected, the sound therapy can be carried out on you either in a supine or prone position. The advantages of lying on your stomach are: you feel protected, the reflex zones of the feet can be stimulated and heavy shells don't crush you.

The advantages of lying on your back are: you can follow what is happening, you don't have to dare to look curiously and you can breathe more freely.
