The Basics of Frequency in Sound Healing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Frequency is the number of vibrations per second, measured in hertz (Hz). Everything in the universe vibrates, including your body. Sound healing works by using specific frequencies to bring your system back into balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you use a singing bowl, its sound interacts with your brainwaves, nervous system, and energy centers (chakras). That\u2019s why certain tones feel relaxing, energizing, or even emotional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chakras and Their Associated Frequencies<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each chakra is linked to a specific sound and note. Many singing bowls\u2014especially crystal bowls\u2014are tuned to these chakra frequencies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
