When you experience a sound massage for relaxation, health or spiritual reasons, your practitioner will use a range of different therapy singing bowls; universal, heart and pelvic bowls. As their names suggest, there is a bowl suitable for each part of the body, the size, shape and weight determines the sound and strength of the vibrations. Rich tones and vibrations aside, the bowls are beautiful in their own right and are available varying hues of silver and gold, some shiny, some matt.
In a professional sound massage therapy session you could be treated with several different bowls; the head bowl, pelvic bowl, solar plexus bowl, XXL bowl and the universal bowl. However, the heart, pelvic and universal are the most widely used.
The ‘universal’ singing bowl is perfect for beginners, particularly for those practicing every now and again at home with friends and friends. However, anyone intending to provide regular sound massage treatments should invest in several singing bowls in order to fine tune each therapy and ensure the maximum benefit.
Pelvic bowls
At 25cm to 29cms diametre and weighing up to 2kg, the pelvic bowl is slightly bigger than the universal. The larger size produces stronger vibrations which can be used on the abdomen and solar plexus. The strength of vibrations will depend on the size of the singing bowl and the tone can be altered according to the type of mallet used to tap it.
