“Opening to our polyphonic nature, the vibratory dimension of all experience, is a revolutionary act that does not legitimate the within/without world but breaks it, does not console within/without worlds but shatters it, does not render these worlds content but undone.”

Acutonics is an integrative sound medicine that draws on and utilises the foundational principles of acupuncture - that the body is a matrix of energy lines known as meridians, which circulate chi around the body. Health - emotional, spiritual, physical arises from the the smooth flow and circulation of chi through, around and within us - disease from its disruption, stagnation or disturbance.

Acutonics works with the acupuncture points and idea of chi but rather than using needles uses sound - in the form of vibration , to affect and access the energy. Acupuncture points act as portals for the vibration to enter the body and the frequencies are transmitted via tuning forks. Each tuning fork’s vibration is equivalent to a planetary body - such as Venus, the Moon and so on and impacts the bodies energy system with the qualities of each respective planet, their psycho-spiritual implications and restorative potential. Hence Acutonics weaves a working practice - the poetics of the points and the archetypal poetics of the planets as well as drawing on a long history of interval sound healing. Thereby offering/inviting a strong energetic attunement allowing the universal frequencies, that permeate our liveworld, to enter the body in directed and intentional ways. Acutonics works on multiple levels - physiological, psycho-spiritual and energetic but overall it is a non invasive, deeply relaxing experience that soothes the nervous system allowing it to settle into a relaxed theta vibrational state . Being in this theta wave state allows imbalances of all kinds to be released and our capacity for lucid imagining, our direct experience of the interconnected nature of thought - feeling - being, to be experienced.

The sound technologies used within an Acutonics session help to expand our experiential state, encounter ourselves as the space - time - mind - body continuum, relaxing our constructed boundaries of separation and enabling a direct experience of our extensive relationality, our entangled intra actions, with the human and more than human world. Furthermore Acutonics as a practice builds the physiological capacity to hold this expansive sate, to become agile with our edges and re-member us to stellar dimensions out of which we emerged and will return.

A treatment can be anything up to 1 - 1/2 hours, is experienced lying down fully clothed on a massage table. It is best if you can allow yourself time after the session to regain ground and recalibrate yourself to the day to day world. The practice can alleviate physical and emotional aches and pains whilst also inducing deep relaxation that extends beyond the session. Sessions can be in combination with an Astrology consult or not, although having your birth details enables me to cast your natal chart, to see your unique sound sympathy - what planets are alive in your life at the time of the treatments and to craft a symphonic session with greater precision and personal relevance.
