Music is transformational. The use of vibration through sound is a centuries old practice for healing. Healing techniques utilized include singing bowl massages, Japa practice which is the use of an initiated mantra practiced over time to create energetic changes, sound therapy and vocalization into the body to create changes in cellular structure.
