At Lakshmi Sound Sanctuary, I work with a range of therapeutic sound tools that support deep healing, balance, and restoration.
One of the most precise and subtle tools in my sound healing practice is the tuning fork.

The Healing Power of Tuning Forks with Annie Ridgway

What are Tuning Forks?

Tuning forks are metal instruments that produce a specific frequency when struck. Originally used for musical tuning, they have found a powerful role in the world of holistic health. In sound healing, tuning forks are used to deliver targeted vibrational energy directly into the body or energy field.

How Tuning Forks Work in Sound Therapy

Each tuning fork is calibrated to a particular frequency, which can resonate with and influence different parts of the physical body or energetic system. When gently placed near or on the body, the vibration travels deeply into the tissues, helping to release tension, clear energetic blockages,
and stimulate the body’s innate ability to heal.

I often use tuning forks around the head, spine, and joints to promote nervous system regulation, reduce pain, and realign the body’s vibrational field. They are particularly helpful for those experiencing stress, anxiety, sleep disturbances, or chronic pain.

Deep Relaxation
The steady vibration calms the mind and body, creating a peaceful state.

Energetic Balance
Tuning forks help align chakras and subtle energy bodies.

Pain Relief
Vibration penetrates deep into muscles and bones, releasing tension and discomfort.

Mental Clarity
Many feel a sense of lightness, mental spaciousness, and emotional balance after a session.

Improved Sleep
The calming effect on the nervous system often supports better rest.

Stimulates Cellular Regeneration
The vibrational frequencies can enhance circulation and support the natural repair processes of the body at a cellular level,
encouraging tissue healing and regeneration.

Supports Detoxification
By stimulating lymphatic flow and circulation, tuning forks help flush toxins from the body, supporting the organs of elimination and overall vitality.

Restores Postural Alignment
Vibrations placed along the spine and joints may assist in realigning the musculoskeletal system, improving posture and physical balance.

Promotes Emotional Release
Sound works deeply on the emotional body. Tuning forks can help release long-held emotional patterns and bring about a sense of lightness and peace.

Tuning forks in sound therapy have a range of other benefits, from improving energy flow in the body to balancing Chakras.

Benefits of Tuning Fork Therapy

Why I love Using Tuning Forks in Sound Therapy Sessions

There is something incredibly gentle yet profound about the way tuning forks work. They speak directly to the body's intelligence. As a practitioner, I’ve seen how they can unlock deep healing, especially when integrated into a full sound healing session. Whether used to open up stagnant energy or to
bring the brain into a meditative state, tuning forks are both versatile and deeply effective.

Watch the Full Video: Exploring the 128Hz Tuning Fork

In this short video, I introduce one of my favourite tools in sound therapy, the 128Hz tuning fork. This particular frequency is often used directly on the body, especially on bones and joints, due to its grounding and deeply resonant qualities.

You'll see how the 128Hz tuning fork is activated and applied, and how its vibration can be used to release tension, increase circulation, and bring the body into a state of calm and balance. It's a perfect introduction to the tactile, soothing power of vibrational healing.
