ABOUT ACUTONICS
Traditional Chinese Medicine, Science, Spirituality, Cosmology, Wisdom Traditions and Sound.
Acutonics® is an effective, non-invasive and integrated approach to health care, working with vibratory energy created through sound. This approach to health and wellness embraces the concept of a musical and undivided universe, a belief across many wisdom traditions throughout history. Sound has been a sacred healing tool for cultures across the globe and is considered the oldest form of healing.
Everything in the Universe vibrates, from the smallest particle, to the planets in our solar system, to the billions of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, creating patterns of geometric waveforms, frequencies, musical intervals, and sounds which can set another body in motion, known as resonance. In Western culture, The Music of the Spheres, or the concept of these heavenly harmonies can be traced back to Pythagoras in the 6th century BC, who recognised that sounds are subject to mathematical laws and proportions and were the very foundation of the Universe.
The sounds of celestial bodies are brought into the clinical setting through the use of precision calibrated tuning forks. Acupuncture points and Chakras provide access into these core energy systems within the body. The planets provide musical intervals, archetypes and correspondences that help us to fine-tune the therapeutic frequencies that are applied to the body.
It is the combination of the highest quality planetary tuning forks with the holistic principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine that make this method of Sound Therapy so effective. Tongue and pulse are analysed prior to treatment and a great diagnostic tool to mark ongoing improvements throughout successive treatments. The pulse in particular, when measured at the end of a single session will give a clear indication of the physiological shift that has occurred during the treatment. Another foundation of Acutonics®, based on TCM principles, is that every physical or psychological symptom has an emotional origin, allowing us to access the root of the issue and return the body to balance. Holistically treating the whole being.
Sound travels 4 x faster through water than air, the human body, which is about 70% water is an excellent conductor for vibration and healing becomes possible, attuning the body to carefully calibrated frequencies that support wellbeing. The vibrational frequency of the Earth, Moon, Sun and Planets, and their archetypal qualities, lead to the creation of the Acutonics® Tuning Forks used in Sound Therapy. The sound waves of these tuning forks reverberate into the body along the Meridians, shifting physiology and reaching areas not easily accessed by traditional medicine. Manufactured by space grade metal to exact specifications, they are the highest grade on the market and do not lose their frequency. Used on and over the body, producing clear resonance, sound reaches us on a deep cellular level.
Acutonics® Sound Therapy methods are backed by over 20 years of documented clinical case studies that demonstrate the positive effects of Sound Therapy.

Pythagoras
570-490 BC (Greece)
It was Pythagoras who first referred to the universe as “Kosmos” (a Greek word meaning order and harmony). He made the logical assumption that when the celestial bodies revolved, musical sounds were created.
-
The Taoists
The Taoists believed that each piece of the universe is linked to the whole as part of an interlaced network of divine harmony. They later created the 5 Element Theories and discovered cyclic pathways of energy in the human body called Meridians.

Johannes Kepler
1571-1630 (Germany)
Kepler, an Astronomer, Astrologer, Philosopher, Mathematician and Musician, worked on Pythagoras theories and quantified the velocities of the orbits of the planets. The laws that govern planetary motion.
-
Hans Cousto
Born 1948 (Switzerland)
In 1978 Hans Cousto translated the planetary velocities calculated by Kepler into musical tones. The ‘Cosmic Octave’ is the harmonic law of doubling or halving frequencies creating octave-analogue tones in audible range.

Acutonics Institute of Integrative Medicine
Pythagoras’s Music of the Spheres combined with ancient Taoist traditions recognising the body as a microcosm influenced by the macrocosm, to Cousto’s musical tones of Keplers planetary orbits, are the basis of the Acutonics system of healing.
Planetary Tuning Forks
Combinations of low, mid and high frequency forks are used throughout a session to treat the whole person - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
The low forks vibrate more strongly and reach deeper into the body, great for use when certain symptoms are more pronounced. They are very relaxing and grounding, ideal for pain relief and more chronic or long lasting physical, mental and emotional symptoms.
The mid frequency forks are great for general use on the body, particularly on areas such as the face, where the low vibrations may feel too strong. The mid frequency forks are the perfect balance between the deep physical body of the low forks and the spiritual body of the high frequency forks. The more subtle vibrations of the mid forks are also great for treating children.
The high frequency forks have a more audible sound and are used above the body in the etheric field and with the chakras. This frequency helps to bring us out of the density of our physical body and symptoms, increase our electromagnetic field and connect with our spiritual selves. Powerful for manifestation, combined with the mid or low forks we can call in a new intention and help to anchor it in our physical body.
Sound is the force of creation, the true whole. Music, then, becomes the voice of the great cosmic oneness and therefore the optimal way to reach this final state of healing.
