Vibroacoustic Harp Therapy
Vibroacoustic Harp Therapy is a specialized form of harp therapy that blends the ancient traditions of the healing harp and modern technology. Often described as a musical massage, the harp, with its soothing timbre and spiritual associations, has been revered as a healing instrument by many cultures for thousands of years. Since its inception in 1990, VAHT has reduced pain and enhanced the quality of life for hundreds of patients. VAHT is a whole-body therapy tailored to the unique individual that you are. It is touch-free, scent-free and clients experience virtually zero negative side effects.
​
VAHT involves the live performance of harp music amplified through a sound vibration chair. People of all ages suffering from work overload or are dealing with a serious medical condition can benefit from VAHT. Vibroacoustic Harp therapy is a powerful modality that will allow your body to relax and healing to take place. Many people experience relief from anxiety, chronic pain, headaches, fibromyalgia, insomnia, depression, and more following a 45-minute session.
