The Monochord Singing Chair: Resonance in Music Therapy, by: Joanne Loewy DA, LCAT, MT-BC, Louis Armstrong Center for Music and Medicine
The Louis Armstrong Center for Music and Medicine has discovered a profound tool in the Vibrational Singing Chair from feeltone, integrating it into their Music Therapy program with remarkable results. San Francisco-based sound practitioner Lydia Hwang recently demonstrated its effectiveness alongside Monolina Monochords and Klangfarben Hanging Chimes, further exploring the chair's therapeutic potential.Read now
Originally drawn to sound healing following an autoimmune diagnosis, Lydia's journey has led her to a deep understanding of the healing properties of sound, particularly through the monochord chair's ability to produce consonant intervals and octaves. Utilized as a warm-up tool, the chair has captivated both patients and healthcare staff, offering moments of tranquility and relief from ailments such as migraines through specific vocal and string techniques.
The chair's impact extends beyond adults; it has also provided a serene experience for a child with pervasive developmental delays, showcasing its versatility and ability to create a meditative state conducive to therapy and relaxation. As the MonChair becomes integrated into hospital settings, its efficacy in pain management and recovery is being formally evaluated, promising a future where sound healing is a standard part of patient care. The MonChair, with its dual function as an office chair, underscores the adaptability and holistic benefit of integrating vibrational sound therapy into healing spaces. -
