I’ve been using this fork for treating post stroke numbness in affected extremities and I’ve been having really cool results in my music therapy health services practice in tertiary Neuro rehab - patients have reported within a 15-20 minute treatment the return of sensation in the last remaining numb areas on forearms, lower legs hands and feet - apparently it feels like when your appendage has fallen asleep and it’s waking up with a prickling tingle - in over half of the treatments the sensation stays
@andreacurry8807 WOW! This is outstanding. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you sharing this clinical evidence from your practice. It is so invaluable when us practitioners share our results because it inspires new ideas for how to use these tools (i.e. tuning forks) and what is truly possible in terms of helping people to heal. I absolutely love hearing this and am so grateful for you taking the time to leave this comment. Thanks so much and have an amazing day!
My acupuncturist has been using tuning forks on my spine, hips and legs to alleviate pain along with needles and it feels wonderful. I recently had pain in my leg for two weeks and this was the only thing that helped relieve my pain.
@Aileen Wright Wow! Really?! That is so cool. That is definitely a testimonial worth spreading around. I'm so happy you are getting relief, and it's also nice to know that this is a practice you can continue at home on your own, if you would like. Continue to be well. Thank you so much for stopping by the channel!
This was FABULOUS. Because of your mention of tuning forks in your nitric oxide video, I got three forks and my life has changed. As if now, I also have 5 other friends actively using g forks and one is getting certified! We all love them. I plan to get another 7 or more involved. It’s just such an easy decision. This session was marvelous. It was interesting to see the different reactions on my head. For me, I’m thrilled with the benefit of feeling greatly relaxed to the point of sleepiness, so I’ll save this routine for bedtime. Performing a sound bath with the non weighted 335 g and 236 c on my head and face, leaves my parasympathetic relaxed but my brain woken up! It’s awesome. It’s like drinking a cup of coffee to wake up but much quicker and without the caffeine. I’ve used the Otto 128 on bruises, it immediately stops bleeding (from a scab that I picked) and it’s improving my eyesight. I no longer need glasses to write a text (unless I’m really tired at night. I’ll be 60 yes old next year) my vision is not yet perfect but it’s vastly improved. I use the forks through the day. I’m also using them on thick skin bumps, which very very slowly seem to be breaking them up. I try them on mosquito bites but they don’t seem to help much with the itch. My friends are having different reactions: one woman is a very active 85 year old and uses them in her face. After about a week of daily work, a friend she saw on zoom asked if she had a facelift! Many many benefits for many friends and all due to YOU!!! Thank you a million times 🦋
@Lore M Wow, Wow, Wow!!! This is awesome!! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you leaving all this anecdotal feedback from you and your friends' personal experiences! It's so cool to see how different people have very different, and sometimes super specific, responses. I love the idea of using the forks for wound healing!! I never tried it. So do you just circle around the scab or cut? The vision thing makes some sense to me. I feel tension in the actual muscles of the eyes is often the culprit in distorted vision, so to relax those muscles, must make a big difference. And the appearance of a facelift doesn't surprise me either. That's so great. I didn't do anything, I just put the info out there and got the ball rolling, you and your friends took it to a whole new level! It's very cool. Keep exploring and please feel free to report back with any other revelations. I really appreciate you. 🙏
@@athenabrown7777 I have not done it yet. I do know that my eyesight changes with life events so that is part of the situation. I’m doing some emotional energy work (childhood stuff) and my eyes improve, though they can get weak again (my close vision) if I don’t stay on top of my emotions. As an example: several years ago, I went to the eye Dr and he said « what happened ? What have you been doing? » I was a bit concerned and he said no, I haven’t seen you I. 5 years and your eyesight is better! My (abusive) husband left and the relief was so great that it affected my eyesight for the better. Basically, it’s all about relaxing the body, that’s THE key and there are many ways to do it. The forks are a nice addition to the other things I do that affect the whole body, including the eyes
@@spinnettdesigns Thank You for sharing your journey it's very uplifting too hear your healing and improving your life. The 128hz are very good. God bless
@andreatrapp5482 Awww, that's very kind of you to say. I really appreciate that so much!💖Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I'm excited for your fork to arrive! Please keep me posted on your personal experience once you start playing with it.😊Have a great day!
@marytesta3003 Oh awesome! That's terrific. Yea, the forks would be a great addition to your work, and with your extensive background in human anatomy and various meridians, you'll be able to incorporate them seamlessly!🙌 Thanks so much for watching and commenting, Mary! Good luck to you!
I felt my brain fog lift instantly. felt more present,awareness of self.Pain in the ears from tinnitus disappeared.body brain and mind at ease.brain distortion tuned out .balanced and clear headed.I APPRECIATE YOU GREATLY
Wow! @Albert Francis this is incredible feedback. I am so pleased to hear about your experience. May I ask, how long after your session would you say these results lasted? Also, I have had several people ask me about tinnitus. Many people have come back with positive feedback in regards to reducing tinnitus-associated pain and also the ability of the tuning forks to occlude the ringing sound. If you are open to it, would you mind sharing more details about that part of your experience? Was there a permanent reduction in symptoms? Or did you just have reduced symptoms during your session? Did any points in particular help more than others? Many thanks. And, of course, only respond if you feel comfortable doing so. No pressure. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
OMG! I have been so eager to get rid of my tinnitus for ever. Where did you place the fork on your skull, what frequency fork and how many times a day? Pleas tell me everything!🙏
I'm so happy to have found your work. I have recently bought a few forks and am slowly learning. I'm planning to share some info in a tiny friendly group where I'm going to show some RUclipss from you and some other Sound Healers and then we can all try my forks and I'll give links for folk to explore everything further. I'll be strongly recommending that they watch all of your stuff. I love your style, nice and clear. Thank you for these excellent videos
Oh, wow! Thank you so much @Sandra Cleland for that very thoughtful and generous comment. I really appreciate it. I would also invite you to share any anecdotal feedback from your small group explorations as well! It is so helpful for all of us as a community to hear the results other people are achieving via sound healing. For example, sometimes, someone stumbles across an application for the forks, that none of us would have otherwise thought of. 😉 Thank you for you support and for taking the time to comment, and also for referring others to my channel. I really appreciate that.
Hey just wanted to send some gratitude for your resources ( Ive downloaded a copy - enjoy your coffee!) and respect for your teaching. Its well paced, articulate and great visual and spoken guidance for the placements. You really are a wonderful teacher - thank you.
Wow! @Kalsolomon3581 that is extremely kind of you to say! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and leave this lovely, supportive comment. I really appreciate that. And I'm so glad you are getting value from my videos and the tuning fork therapy in general. Have a great day! I really appreciate you. 💖
Thankyou I found this video during an anxiety attack and my bp was very high and was searching to see if 128 helped bring down high blood pressure. I loved this video and at the end of the skull points I felt calm and clear headed THANKYOU❤️
@mignon1959 AMAZING! Thank you so much for letting me know. I love hearing feedback like this. It's so wonderful to hear all the positive ways that simple sound vibration dramatically impacts people's lives. Thank you for visiting the channel and for trying out my session. I'm so glad it was helpful for you. 💖
@Boomer715 That's great! I'm so glad these videos can offer you some direction. This is only ONE video in an entire series, that guides you to use the tuning forks throughout your entire body. I am including a link to the full playlist, in case you'll find that helpful. Thanks again for supporting the channel! ruclips.net/p/PLcoajB6YZSO4z0FOAZdkSGa7_MOi7p2a8
Just used the tuning fork on the body as per your RUclips video. I have Afib and it improved dramatically. However it came back, not as dramatic and with some improvement. I’m going to assume that if I use it on a regular basis that the improvement will hold longer and longer. Thank you for your help. Besides all the medication I take, This routine helped the most, even after the initial improvement went down a little bit. Thank you for this video
@madfredbod this is incredible feedback. Sorry for taking so long to respond...it's been a busy week. But I want you to know how happy I am to hear about your personal experience. I hope that your symptoms continue to get better and better. Re: your A-fib, may I ask which points on your body you have found most effective in terms of tuning fork placement? Thank you for being a part of my community and for trying out these gentle methods of healing.
I'm so glad to hear that! Did you do both the Face session and the Skull session in the same day?! Wow! You must be floating!😍 I'm glad the sessions felt so soothing and effective. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Thanks so much for the support @Bonnie Krause-Gams.
You are quite welcome @user-dz3pv4ww3u I'm glad you're enjoying them. I hope they give you a good benefit! Thank you for watching and supporting the channel!
Hi . I'm really glad I found your chanel! You are the first to make me aware of the contraindicated use of tuning forks near to metal implants ! I am currently studying sound healing therapy and about to begin to use singing bowls and tuning forks. Earlier this year I had a complete wrist replacement . Joint replacement and permanent fusion . Alot of metal in my left wrist !! Am I going to be able to use these bowls and forks ???
Hi @kristy williams Wow! Ok, it's a lot. Firstly, I saw that you just signed up for my FREE Breathing Course, so thank you very much for that. I hope you get some good value from it.🙏😊Secondly, in regards to metal parts, this may not be universally thought of as a contraindication by all sound therapists. Here's my two cents on it, and then hopefully you can make a more informed decision for yourself. Because of the nature of metal, some people might not find vibration over those areas comfortable, as it has a different vibratory quality than your human tissue. So one side of it is just comfort. Then, please remember also that I am sharing information publicly on RUclips and am not able to evaluate/assess my students on this platform. That means I am EXTRA cautious when sharing this type of information, because I really want everyone to be as safe as possible. The tuning forks have such a gentle vibratory nature, but I could see that with long-term use it could be possible that repeated vibration might loosen or dislodge a screw or a bolt. Now, we have to also consider that replacement parts are much better made now than they were 20 or 30 years ago, so there may be less to worry about there. My honest opinion, even if it means an uncomfortable conversation, is to simply ask your surgeon his/her thoughts. Does he/she foresee any issues with regular use of these vibratory tools. If he/she says no, then maybe it's fine! Do I think you're going to have a problem after one or two uses? No. But daily use, especially if you are considering becoming a practitioner yourself? You may just want to think about it. Ultimately, these sound instruments can be amazingly healing to the body and are awesome for pain reduction. So ideally, we'd like to be able to use them after surgery, including joint replacement. I always tell my students on this platform to work away from the area of replacement, but again, perhaps your surgeon knows best. Sorry to not be more definitive here and also to place doubt in your mind. I hope that this helps you to make a good decision for yourself.
@@BELightTT thankyou so much for taking the time to reply . I appreciate your explanation. I just hadn't thought of it ! But of course it makes absolute sense. I will be paying alot closer attention what I am and have been around when I find it's uncomfortable. Which definitely happens now and then. ♡
@@kristywilliams9 great! I'm glad that was helpful. And also, you are doing these sound healing certifications. Maybe just ask your other teachers what their opinions are. But I agree with you that self-awareness is step one. Simply learning to pay attention to the signals coming from your body. Good luck with your studies! I wish you many happy years of sound healing.💖

Buy Me a Coffee (purchases & donations): www.buymeacoffee.com/belighttt OSTEOPOROSIS: I get asked about osteoporosis probably more than almost anything else. My answer may not be perfect, but here is what I like to explain to people. I hope it helps: Osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone. Truth be told, there is some evidence out there that those full-body vibration platforms are quite useful for stimulating bone growth, and, in some cases, are being used to treat people with osteoporosis. This is a very different mechanism of action, however, than the localized vibration of a tuning fork, so I hesitate to compare them. Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contact on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face, skull or feet, for example. Also, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel. I appreciate it immensely.
I have bought the 128hz and 256 hz tuning forks. Using them for the first time with your knowledge. Thankyou. A question. Can they help children with hearing loss .?
@julzdiah8380 That's great! I love hearing this. I hope the forks bring you a lot of value. Please keep me updated with any interested personal discoveries!😃In terms of hearing loss...I really can't say with any amount of certainty what the result will be, Julz. I've never personally worked with a child who has hearing loss. I would imagine it depends a lot on the root cause of the hearing loss. And then, it will also depend on the individual child. You already have the forks, so it's certainly worth a try! You won't cause further damage. And maybe there will be some benefit. Again, please do keep me posted with the results. This is the way we all learn from each other. 🙏Thank you so much for supporting the channel. I appreciate you. Have a great night.
Hello Tara! Thank you for posting your videos. They are very informative and entertaining as well. Please tell me where to purchase a tuning fork just like yours with weights at top and an enlarged stem. Thank you Tara and hope to hear from you soon!

@marymarescalco569 Oh, I'm so glad this helped your neck! Yes, it can be a really wonderful self-treatment. So, as regards the pacemaker, you know, Mary, since I'm teaching on RUclips and I cannot evaluate the people watching my videos, I tend to be extra cautious with my recommendations. Let me ask you, how did you feel while using the fork? You didn't feel any negative disruption in your heart rate? Perhaps it will be totally fine for you. Whenever it comes to the heart, I always think it's a good idea to mention any new strategies to your cardiologist, just to get his/her opinion. But if you felt fine and had a great experience, that makes me super happy. Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel. I really appreciate you. Have a great day!
@BELightTT Good evening! I have the pacemaker because of Bradycardia. I wasn't thinking of it, and it felt good to use the fork. After I saw you mentioned a pacemaker, I also looked it up and said to not use near pacemaker, so I am going to ask my cardiologist. Thank you for mentioning it because it's an important thing to think about before using them. Thank you so much for your videos, I hope to keep learning from you!
@@marymarescalco569Oh good, I'm so glad you found further confirmation online regarding pacemakers and tuning forks. Also, yes, with the heart, it is always best to ask your cardiologist. Hopefully, he/she will give you the ok and you can continue to enjoy your tuning forks, as they are a wonderful tool for calming the mind and body. Please do keep me posted, Mary, as it helps me as well to hear a physician's opinion on this. Stay well and have a wonderful evening.
Thank you so much, Tara. So grateful to have found you🙏 A super important question.. Ia it a contraindication to use the Otto 128 weighted even in the abdominal or face if one haz osteoporosis? Or just don't use it directly on the bone.. ex.. knees, sternum, head? I'd love greater clarification especially prior to me purchasing the manual. Gratitude gratitude gratitude 🙌
@jude weber Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I saw your email as well, and promise to answer a bit later. But I wanted to make sure I touch on this osteoporosis question quickly, as this is asked quite often. Here is the answer I normally provide: Osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone. Although, honestly, there is also some data out there that those low-level full-body vibration platforms are quite useful for stimulating bone growth. But I would say that a vibration plate is quite different from a tuning fork, so it's not a perfect correlation. Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contact on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you maybe would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face and skull. Is this helpful? I hope so. I'll be in touch by email a bit later, Jude. Thanks for connecting.
Excellent video series! Very much needed information. I just got my first tuning fork. When you say metal parts and objects in the body, do you consider a stent in a coronary artery one of them? Humanity needs side effect free holistic medicine. Keep up the good job! God bless!
@Laszlo Horog obviously since you are dealing with your heart, it is very important to ask your physician this question. However, I can tell you that I have had several people in the community ask this same question, and the consensus from their doctors seems to be that modern stents are very stable and can hold up to this gentle vibration without issue. Again, I cannot tell you what to do. My best advice would be to tell your physician that you are interested in using a gentle vibration tool on your body, and ask if they foresee any complications with your stent. If you do get any more information on this topic yourself, please do share it with me, as it's important and I like to stay as informed as possible.🙏 Also, thank you so much for your very kind words. I intend to keep offering value like this the best that I can. Have a blessed day!
@@BELightTT I really appreciate your honest advice. While you are absolutely correct that this vibration is so gentle and the heart is so deep inside behind several skin, bone and muscle tissues, I will still talk to my cardiologist about using OTTO 128 on or around the chest area. What is your opinion or the community's experience on using the vibration therapy with metal dental implants in the jaw? Thank you and God bless!
@@laszlohorog8586 Excellent! I am glad to hear you will speak to your cardiologist. In terms of the implants, this topic has also come up a few times in the community. Look, I am sure they were quite expensive to have put into your mouth, so you want to be sure to take care of them the best that you can. I think to work on your face and skull with the tuning fork will be just fine. Your implants should be very stable. But definitely do NOT use the tuning fork on/near your teeth, and maybe avoid the area directly around your lips, which would penetrate into the gum line. Does this sound reasonable? And, of course, if anything FEELS uncomfortable or "wrong" to you, simply stop. Your body knows best what it needs.😉 I hope this helps, Laszlo.
@davidmichael3189 You are, of course, free to try out whatever you like. All my videos on this channel are devoted to the OTTO 128. I don't personally use a 256 or 512, so I can't really speak to those frequencies. I'm sure they have their own wonderful benefits. Best to go by the manufacturer's description and also the reviews, if you are interested in trying them. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. I appreciate you!
Hi 💛 from 🇬🇧 😊. My first ever weighted tuning fork is due to arrive today. I've never used one before. It's a 111 Hz. Will that be OK to use on the skull in the same way as your 128 Hz 🤔. By the way, I have just subscribed to your channel, so much info for a newbie. Thank you 😉.
@Smuzzy Wumbles I really appreciate the subscribe. Thank you so much for that! I, honestly, have never used a 111Hz, but after reading up on it, it sounds like a great choice. I'm pretty sure there are a few others in the community also working with a 111Hz tuning fork. If you follow my channel for a while, you'll find that I am quite un-dogmatic and that I really encourage people to do a lot of self-exploration. The best way to truly know if something will work well for you or not, is to simply try it! The tuning forks are really quite safe, and lend themselves well to this type of exploration. For that, absolutely, I believe you can use the 111Hz in the same way that I am using the 128Hz, and receive a similar benefit. I'm excited for you to receive your fork today! Please bookmark my Tuning Fork Video Series Playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLcoajB6YZSO4z0FOAZdkSGa7_MOi7p2a8 Please feel free to ask any questions, at any time. And also, if you are interested, I just recently created a simple OTTO 128Hz Tuning Fork Manual for my students. That can be purchased on my website: www.belighttt.com/offers/G2GzhJXk or my Buy Me a Coffee page: www.buymeacoffee.com/belighttt/e/61997 I hope this helps, Smuzzy Wumbles. Reach out any time and I'm thrilled to have you in the community.
When using the fork on my head the vibration absorbs quickly. Way faster than yours. Does that mean that it needs more? Thank you for all your amazing content❤
Hi @Cosmic Vegan Chick Hmmmm, it could be a few things. 1. Sometimes when I'm teaching these tutorials via video and I'm talking a lot (aka "too much" LOL😂) I don't always move the fork as soon as I feel the vibration ends. Sometimes, I'll finish my sentence first. So not every application in this video might be a totally accurate depiction of how long the vibration lasts. 2. The duration of vibration can correlate somewhat with the quality of your fork. It just depends what it's made of. 3. If you find your fork is dying out too quickly, you can strike it harder. It will vibrate proportionately to how hard you strike it. There's a limit when striking it on the body (because it hurts after a while), but you can get a rubber striker to assist with your practice. I hope that helps! Thank you so much for watching and commenting. Enjoy!
@@BELightTT the interesting thing is that it vibrates longer on different parts of the body. My third eye soaks it up in 4 seconds as well as my Massage clients. My heart vibration lasts a good 15 or more seconds. The top of my head was very quick and seems that the rest of my body lasts much longer
@@cosmicveganchick9014 Yea, that IS super interesting! I don't have a perfect answer for you. You know, on a physical plane, there is definitely going to be something to the density of different areas of the body and how they absorb the vibration. But I know you are looking for the more energetic answer here. You know, play around with it. It sounds like you are an experienced bodyworker. I would follow your intuition on this one, based on yours and your clients' other symptoms and concerns. It's super interesting for sure. Keep exploring and experimenting! That's the best way to learn. 🙌💖🤩 And thank you for sharing this with me. I LOVE to hear what other people are experiencing with the forks. 😊
II jsut found your video. I recently had tuning fork used on my head, shoulders and for fluid retention by my acupuncturist. I love your detailed percise video. I am looking to buy a tuning fork. It was recommended that I get the 128. I went on Amazon and there are so many... Do you have a specific recommendation.?
Hi @Debbie I Correa Thank you so much for watching and commenting on my video. I am so glad you are interested in getting an OTTO 128 for home use. That's wonderful. Debbie, if you check the comment I have pinned to the top of the comments section (which is also pinned to the top of ALL my tuning fork videos), it offers a number of tuning fork resources and their associated links. I will copy those links for you here, as you may find something of personal value. To answer your question more specifically, I purchase all of my tuning forks from BioSonics. They are a bit of an investment, but I believe that tuning forks are healing instruments that will last a lifetime and are worth the initial investment. Plus, BioSonics is owned by one of my teachers and I really trust the quality and integrity of his forks. Here is the link to the OTTO 128 that I use and recommend to all of my students: biosonics.com/product/otto-tuner-128-weighted/ref/527/ And if you are interested in any of the other resources I offer (including all of my tuning fork tutorials and videos), please check the list of links below.

@@debbieicorrea672 I'm super excited for you! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Welcome to the community. I'm so happy to connect with you.😊
Thanks so much for your detailed videos !!!🙏 I fractured my left wrist 20 years ago n have a whole bunch of platinum pins in it ! is it ok that im holding the tuning fork in my left hand while working on my scull ?
@SH B Well isn't this the million dollar question?😳 Firstly, thank you so much for watching, for trying out this work and for commenting. Your question is a great one and an important one. Here's what I will say. Please understand that since I am teaching self-care tools via a digital platform and I cannot control who sees these videos or supervise how they use the information, I tend to lean toward being extra cautious with my guidelines. In general, I would say stay away from any pins, only because over time, I fear the consistent vibration might loosen something. Will it happen from a single use? No. Might it happen with repeated use? It's quite possible. Especially since this is an old surgery which utilized less modern techniques and tools. Let me ask you, do you feel any pain or strange sensations when the vibration travels through your left hand? You may be ok to use your left hand occasionally for this practice. But, if possible, I would simply use your right hand instead whenever you can, if that's an option for you. Sorry to not be able to give you a 100%, super precise answer, but I do hope this helps. 💖
@@BELightTT Thank you for your reply ! Im very new to this and have used it only once for my scull and didn't really feel any aches or pain or any strange feeling in my left wrist ! so I will take your advice on using my right hand as much as possible !
@@shb7809 Great! Again, it's just to be extra cautious. I'm sure using your left hand once in a while will be fine, but an emphasis on the right hand seems wiser as a long-term plan. 😉
@deelanastyron93 Thanks for watching and asking this question. You might like to watch this video on "How to Strike Your Tuning Fork" ruclips.net/video/WZkjOWddhKQ/видео.htmlsi=APHtI3hPH_sSGTY1 I hope you find it useful. Thanks for stopping by the channel and have a great day!
It's a great question. 1. Never use the tuning forks on the teeth - even through the skin of the lips and cheeks. 2. I believe the low-grade vibration will be safe, but it's best to check with your oral surgeon to make sure that the vibration from the tuning forks won't disrupt anything in your mouth long-term. 3. I think it's totally fine to work other areas of the face and skull - away from the jaw - without any issue at all. I hope this helps! Thank you so much for watching and commenting.
Hi @Rose m Nieves YES! OTTO is usually just another word for "weighted", as it implies a more osteopathic focus (meaning contacting and vibrating through the bone), and the 128Hz frequency is definitely considered a C when based off of the A=432Hz tuning. So, yes, your weighted 128 C is perfect. 😊 Thank you for watching and commenting.
@Moon Godess thank you so much for watching and asking this great question. While the tuning fork vibration is gentle, it is still powerful and still travels through the entire body. If someone has very weak or brittle bones, the vibration can fracture them and cause a lot of pain. Imagine a sound wave shattering a mirror or thin piece of glass. Vibration can be powerful. Now, there is some research that full-body vibration of low intensity might actually stimulate bone growth and assist people with weak bones. But that is something very different from the tuning forks. To err on the side of caution, it has always been recommended to me to avoid weak bones with the tuning forks. I hope this helps. Thank you so much for watching.
Hi. Is there any way possible that I can buy the weights for my tuning forks, or do I have to already buy the forks with the weights on them? Can you point me in the direction of the weights for my forks?
@simplymuffin08 This is an excellent question. Honestly, I've never seen the weights sold separately, but I've also never actually looked! LOL😂 It must be possible that some distributor is selling them separately, right? As every business making tuning forks must purchase them in that way. Unfortunately, I don't have any leads for you. I am not in the tuning fork business, in terms of selling, distributing, manufacturing, etc. I wish you luck with your search. If you discover a viable option, please let me know. Thanks so much for stopping by the channel and have a great day!
Perhaps, from so many years of negligence to my body, I might be desensitized to this exercise. I am also concerned that the tuning fork I purchased might now be such a good one because it doesnn't vibrate for very long. While watching the video, it seems that your fork vibrates much longe than mine. The tuning fork I bought is a LaSage. It is made in China.
@Mary Kirschner don't give up! May I ask what attracted you to tuning forks in the first place, Mary? If they resonate with you, I invite you to keep trying. Maybe your skull is not the place you will feel it most. Did you try using them on your sternum? For me, that always seems to be the spot that resonates universally with people. Perhaps because it is right over the heart. You can take a look at my video about using the tuning fork on the sternum & ribs here: ruclips.net/video/WqIpqCoav64/видео.html In terms of tuning fork quality, yes, that can be an issue. To be clear, the tuning fork will ring relative to how hard you strike it. And because I am talking a lot during these videos, you cannot always tell exactly when my vibration runs out. Don't let that be the discouraging point. Do you feel the vibration at all? The fork I recommend to people is more expensive than the one you own, but it is produced by one of my teachers, so I really trust the quality. If you are ever interested in taking a look, here is my affiliate link. Of course, there is no pressure to buy another fork, if you don't feel called to do so. biosonics.com/product/otto-tuner-128-weighted/ref/527/ I hope you'll keep trying, Mary. Please let me know if you have any specific questions and please keep me posted on your progress.
I had a hip replacement. I have a pin in my hip. When you said don't use the tuning fork; did you mead just in that area or did you mean to not use it at all?
@Steven Larsen thank you for this wonderful question. I say this to be extra cautious, because the fact is, the vibration travels through your whole body. However, the vibration coming from the OTTO 128 is very gentle. I would say that you could use your OTTO 128 from the chest up without any concern. Does that also feel ok to you? Are you most interested in using the tuning fork on your face and skull?
ha just read your comment about taking off the weights and swapping them to another tuning fork,..........I never thought of that!!, I used the 174 unweighted tuning fork and got bad results for my tmj, I suppose I can put weights onto it and see how it goes. whats your opinion on the higher freqnecies on joints (like your jtemporal mandibular joint) verses the lower frequencies?
@GM Sinding I had actually never thought of that either! LOL🤣 It was a member of my Community who originally tried it and told me she got great results with it.😊 When you say you got "bad results", do you mean you had a negative reaction? Or it was simply ineffectual? You can certainly try it as a weighted fork and see how you respond. I do think actually being able to hold the fork to the body and really feel the vibration does have a powerful result. In terms of the frequency, I have not worked much with the 174Hz, so I cannot speak from experience. But if you already have it available and are willing to give it a try, I would say go for it! You have nothing to lose. If you have a "bad reaction", it will inevitably be temporary. But ultimately, you'll never know how you'll respond until you try it. I wish you lots of luck and am hoping for a miraculous outcome for you. If you don't mind, please keep me posted. I would love to hear about your results.
@user-hr1zn9sv71 I honestly have never done this work on someone with implants, but I also don't really foresee any issue. The vibration from the forks is really quite gentle. I can't really imagine it being strong enough to disrupt the implants. With any serious concern like this, I would definitely encourage you to seek the opinion of your plastic surgeon. But in my inexperienced opinion (which doesn't mean that much), I think you will be fine. I hope this helps. Thank you so much for stopping by the channel!
@Kevin Adams thanks for watching and commenting. Headaches can be tricky, as they are different for everyone. You'll have to experiment and see what works best for you. The tuning forks should be helpful, but there are cases where the increased blood flow and general attention can exacerbate the symptoms of a headache. I would say go through this whole SKULL session, and see which points feel the most generally relieving for you. Then use those points during an active headache and see if you get relief. If you regularly get headaches, I would definitely recommend doing a self-session like this 1-2 times during the week between bouts of acute symptomology, in order to try to keep the headaches at bay. I hope that helps. For headaches, you might also really love the FACE session. Here's a link to that video: ruclips.net/video/whMyYqfvQBw/видео.html Have a great day!
Hi @catherinehofstede3038 I'm really not sure. I've never worked with anyone with chiari malformation. In this case, it is really best to ask your physician. Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel. I hope you find the answer you're looking for. Have a great day!
I have the Otto 128 tuning fork but am a little confused why you can not use it if you have osteoporosis,? Maybe I missed the explanation, but since I have it and want to use my tuning fork, what can I do instead?
@Sue LaRocco osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone. Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contacts on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you maybe would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face and skull. Is this helpful?
@See Lee wow! This is a powerful question. Firstly, I would never claim that a tuning fork can "heal" anything, but it can help to create an internal environment that allows your body to regulate. Secondly, I have to claim total ignorance here. How far advanced is your glaucoma? I have honestly never worked with a patient with glaucoma and I can't think of an example from any of my fellow practitioners either. I'm so sorry. I am going to say "no", as I do not want to mislead you. But I would also encourage you to keep searching and experimenting. You have to keep trying things in order to see what works and what doesn't. I wish you lots of luck on your journey. Thank you for your question.
Thank you for your answer and you are so amazing! I have glaucoma for 3 years and have my eye drops everyday. I just want to find another natural way to treat my glaucoma and I know exactly what you mean! I should use the word "improve" instead of "heal". Thank you for your prompt reply.
@@seelee4048 I wish you lots of luck on your search. I hope you find something miraculous. If you ever have a positive experience with tuning forks, please come back and let me know as I would love to hear your story. Many thanks and be well!
@John Gordon which frequency are you thinking about using? There can certainly be benefit. I use the OTTO 128 because number 1 I own one, but number 2 because it's so utilitarian. The teacher I have studied with, John Beaulieu, uses a number of different frequencies for stimulating different aspects of the physiology. For example, he'll use an OTTO 64Hz exclusively on the sacrum during his cranio-sacral sessions to help balance the autonomic nervous system. He'll use an OTTO 32 Hz to mobilize lymph through the body. If your goal is to alter brain waves, for example, you're definitely going to want to get into some lower frequencies. There are so many books and resources, John. If this is interesting to you, I would recommend exploring a little on your own. I can recommend John Beaulieu's book as a starting point, but I am sure there are many other great options out there as well: biosonics.com/product/human-tuning-sound-healing-with-tuning-forks/ref/527/ I hope that helps! Thanks for watching and for commenting.
Maria, I wouldn't do it. It's not a good idea. The vibration is subtle, but can still make any fracture or bone weakness worse. Please be cautious. Thank you for your question. I am sorry I did not see it earlier. Be well.
Hi, Rajesh. Yes, it is a very good question. But working with different frequencies can get complex. You will find a lot of different people claiming different things for different frequencies. Some my have some scientific evidence, but some may just be basing their theories on anecdotal evidence. That is why I decided to ONLY focus in on this ONE frequency: the 128Hz. I feel comfortable and confident with "the general benefits one may expect to experience" from using this fork. If you are interested in other frequencies, I think you should definitely explore more on your own. Sound Healing can be so powerful. As a very GENERAL rule, lower frequencies tend to resonate more with lower chakras, and higher frequencies tend to resonate more with higher chakras. But that is just the tip of the iceberg. This conversation can go very deep. I would encourage you to read up on it a bit. The one book I always suggest is written by one of my teachers, John Beaulieu...it is called Human Tuning: biosonics.com/product/human-tuning-sound-healing-with-tuning-forks/ref/527/ But if that is not accessible to you, I know there are many books written on this topic. Please explore. Because you are so interested right now, I know you will find the right book for your purposes. 😊
@Marc Shroetter I am not an MD, and I am doubtful that we have any data in regards to your question, so please do not take my response for well-founded medical advice. My most cautious answer would be to definitely ask your physician. I do not anticipate any contraindications, but I really cannot say for sure. I can tell you that the OTTO 128 is show to cause a local release of nitric oxide, which is a vasodilator. I would think in most cases, this would be helpful for anyone who has suffered with a stroke or CVD. If you do ask your physician, and you think of it, please do come back to me and let me know their response. Many thanks! 🙏Have a wonderful week.
@@marcshroetter6083 These questions are outstanding. And I wish I had more concrete answers for you, but unfortunately, there is no research, as far as I know, investigating the effects of a 128Hz frequency on the mitochondria (if you stumble across any, please do let me know🙏). Most of the concrete science I've seen from lab studies mostly describes the 128Hz as boosting nitric oxide, which in turn balances the autonomic nervous system, along with immune function, and helps with the natural release of anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory modulators in the body.
@catalinafernandezlopez1407 I've often wondered this myself. I don't have any anecdotal evidence to suggest it does. If you wanted to experiment in a very consistent and disciplined way, daily, it might be worth seeing what happens. It will also depend on what is causing the hair loss, as that issue is so multi-factorial. I don't have the patience myself to do this experiment, but if you try it out, please let me know your results! Thanks so much for stopping by the channel, for watching and for commenting.

@Elly Alvois it's a good question. I imagine a part of it is the material they're made out of. Another part will be where in the world they are made (production/manufacturing costs). How much/how long they resonate/vibrate will be a major component. How accurately they are tuned to a specific frequency is another component. I think, like anything, it's material costs and craftsmanship. I know that John designed his forks, for example, to have a lot of overtones, because he believes that is imperative to their therapeutic quality. Whereas a typical tuning fork is designed to be as pure-toned as possible, with as few overtones as possible. Not sure if this helps or not...🤷♀️
Hi @Denise Iacobecu it's a great question, and one that I get asked probably more than any other. For that reason, I am copying and pasting the answer that you can also find in the comment pinned to the top of this page. I hope it helps give you a more informed answer. Take care and thank you for stopping by the channel: OSTEOPOROSIS: I get asked about osteoporosis probably more than almost anything else. My answer may not be perfect, but here is what I like to explain to people. I hope it helps: Osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone. Truth be told, there is some evidence out there that those full-body vibration platforms are quite useful for stimulating bone growth, and, in some cases, are being used to treat people with osteoporosis. This is a very different mechanism of action, however, than the localized vibration of a tuning fork, so I hesitate to compare them. Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contact on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face, skull or feet, for example. Also, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel. I appreciate it immensely.
Hi @Bonnie Krause-Gams That thing on the end of my fork is called a "gem foot". It can be a pretty pricey addition to your fork, but I love it for the ease of holding the fork, for the wider surface area it offers, and for that small amount of crystal energy that it adds to the session. If you are interested in purchasing one, here is my affiliate link to BioSonics: biosonics.com/product/clear-quartz-gem-foot-attachment-2/ref/527/ Of course, you can also feel free to browse around the internet and see what else is out there. And just so you know, I always try to be as thorough as possible in my video descriptions, so if you ever get tired of waiting for me to respond, please check the description for all pertinent links. 😉 Hope this helps!
Awesome! Happy to have you back. Let me know what you discover. And for my series, all you need is the 128Hz. But I'd be very curious (as I'm sure others would be as well) as to if you notice a substantial difference between using the 128 and the 144.
@@BELightTT haven’t done the skull points yet. OOooh, I’m sure that will be life changing , reverberating my skull and everything inside it hehe.. my 144 fork sounds great but has a deep uncomfortable groove in the point of contact. Same seller same manufacturer as the 128 I have. I need attachments for it. Those are more pricey than the fork ...
@@foxyauragems6146 Aw, that stinks! Yes, the end part of the fork can sometimes be uncomfortable. And yes, those gem feet are more expensive than the forks! I know! Search "end pieces" or "handles" for tuning forks. The gem feet are only expensive because of the gem stones. But you may find some kind of attachment for the fork that is simply rounded metal, without the gem stone. One of my subscribers actually repurposed a wooden file handle (like you would use in a tool shop) and attached it to his OTTO 128. He says the vibration is still excellent and the rounded wooden handle is super comfortable. Plus, a file handle only costs about $6, but it takes a little bit of labor and craftsmanship to install. 🤷♀️ Sorry I don't have a perfect solution for you. I know you will find something. It's in the forefront of your consciousness now! 😉
@T Mitsuya-gmail oh, interesting! You're lucky! Mine did not come with an allen wrench.😪 Yes, I would say it serves two purposes. 1. if you also purchased a gem foot to use as a handle, the allen wrench will tighten your gem foot onto the base of the fork. 2. Apparently, you can take your weights off the prongs and use your fork as an UNweighted tuning fork, allowing it to just ring out (without the weights, it will not be useful for creating vibration through the body.) OR you can apparently place those same weights onto another unweighted tuning fork, if you have one (creating a weighted tuning fork with a different frequency than the 128Hz). Truthfully, I didn't always realize you could do that. But I've had several students use the same weights on multiple forks with the help of the allen wrench. You should not have to adjust the position of the weights. They should be placed pretty close to the ends of the prongs. (Please check the video to see where my weights are located in relationship to the ends of the prongs.) I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions, and I'm so excited for you to explore more with your OTTO 128. Please let me know how it goes! 😊
I’ve been using this fork for treating post stroke numbness in affected extremities and I’ve been having really cool results in my music therapy health services practice in tertiary Neuro rehab - patients have reported within a 15-20 minute treatment the return of sensation in the last remaining numb areas on forearms, lower legs hands and feet - apparently it feels like when your appendage has fallen asleep and it’s waking up with a prickling tingle - in over half of the treatments the sensation stays
@andreacurry8807 WOW! This is outstanding. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you sharing this clinical evidence from your practice. It is so invaluable when us practitioners share our results because it inspires new ideas for how to use these tools (i.e. tuning forks) and what is truly possible in terms of helping people to heal. I absolutely love hearing this and am so grateful for you taking the time to leave this comment. Thanks so much and have an amazing day!
My acupuncturist has been using tuning forks on my spine, hips and legs to alleviate pain along with needles and it feels wonderful. I recently had pain in my leg for two weeks and this was the only thing that helped relieve my pain.
@Aileen Wright Wow! Really?! That is so cool. That is definitely a testimonial worth spreading around. I'm so happy you are getting relief, and it's also nice to know that this is a practice you can continue at home on your own, if you would like. Continue to be well. Thank you so much for stopping by the channel!
What. Htz were you using, the 128 or something else? Thank you.
This was FABULOUS. Because of your mention of tuning forks in your nitric oxide video, I got three forks and my life has changed. As if now, I also have 5 other friends actively using g forks and one is getting certified! We all love them. I plan to get another 7 or more involved. It’s just such an easy decision.
This session was marvelous. It was interesting to see the different reactions on my head. For me, I’m thrilled with the benefit of feeling greatly relaxed to the point of sleepiness, so I’ll save this routine for bedtime.
Performing a sound bath with the non weighted 335 g and 236 c on my head and face, leaves my parasympathetic relaxed but my brain woken up! It’s awesome. It’s like drinking a cup of coffee to wake up but much quicker and without the caffeine.
I’ve used the Otto 128 on bruises, it immediately stops bleeding (from a scab that I picked) and it’s improving my eyesight. I no longer need glasses to write a text (unless I’m really tired at night. I’ll be 60 yes old next year) my vision is not yet perfect but it’s vastly improved. I use the forks through the day. I’m also using them on thick skin bumps, which very very slowly seem to be breaking them up. I try them on mosquito bites but they don’t seem to help much with the itch.
My friends are having different reactions: one woman is a very active 85 year old and uses them in her face. After about a week of daily work, a friend she saw on zoom asked if she had a facelift!
Many many benefits for many friends and all due to YOU!!! Thank you a million times 🦋
@Lore M Wow, Wow, Wow!!! This is awesome!! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you leaving all this anecdotal feedback from you and your friends' personal experiences! It's so cool to see how different people have very different, and sometimes super specific, responses. I love the idea of using the forks for wound healing!! I never tried it. So do you just circle around the scab or cut? The vision thing makes some sense to me. I feel tension in the actual muscles of the eyes is often the culprit in distorted vision, so to relax those muscles, must make a big difference. And the appearance of a facelift doesn't surprise me either. That's so great.
I didn't do anything, I just put the info out there and got the ball rolling, you and your friends took it to a whole new level! It's very cool. Keep exploring and please feel free to report back with any other revelations. I really appreciate you. 🙏
What method did you do to improve your eyesight?
@@athenabrown7777 I have not done it yet. I do know that my eyesight changes with life events so that is part of the situation. I’m doing some emotional energy work (childhood stuff) and my eyes improve, though they can get weak again (my close vision) if I don’t stay on top of my emotions.
As an example: several years ago, I went to the eye Dr and he said « what happened ? What have you been doing? » I was a bit concerned and he said no, I haven’t seen you I. 5 years and your eyesight is better!
My (abusive) husband left and the relief was so great that it affected my eyesight for the better. Basically, it’s all about relaxing the body, that’s THE key and there are many ways to do it.
The forks are a nice addition to the other things I do that affect the whole body, including the eyes

Thank You for sharing your journey it's very uplifting too hear your healing and improving your life. The 128hz are very good. God bless
I know it's 2 years later, but I just wanted to say how I appreciate your sharing. It was wholesome. Sending you lots of high vibes 💫
This is an amazing channel. I have just purchased a tuning fork and can't wait for it to arrive and get started.
@andreatrapp5482 Awww, that's very kind of you to say. I really appreciate that so much!💖Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I'm excited for your fork to arrive! Please keep me posted on your personal experience once you start playing with it.😊Have a great day!
Excellent video. I'm an LMT and reflexologist. I'm interested in incorporate forks in reflexology treatments.
@marytesta3003 Oh awesome! That's terrific. Yea, the forks would be a great addition to your work, and with your extensive background in human anatomy and various meridians, you'll be able to incorporate them seamlessly!🙌 Thanks so much for watching and commenting, Mary! Good luck to you!
I felt my brain fog lift instantly. felt more present,awareness of self.Pain in the ears from tinnitus disappeared.body brain and mind at ease.brain distortion tuned out .balanced and clear headed.I APPRECIATE YOU GREATLY
Wow! @Albert Francis this is incredible feedback. I am so pleased to hear about your experience. May I ask, how long after your session would you say these results lasted? Also, I have had several people ask me about tinnitus. Many people have come back with positive feedback in regards to reducing tinnitus-associated pain and also the ability of the tuning forks to occlude the ringing sound. If you are open to it, would you mind sharing more details about that part of your experience? Was there a permanent reduction in symptoms? Or did you just have reduced symptoms during your session? Did any points in particular help more than others? Many thanks. And, of course, only respond if you feel comfortable doing so. No pressure. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
OMG! I have been so eager to get rid of my tinnitus for ever. Where did you place the fork on your skull, what frequency fork and how many times a day? Pleas tell me everything!🙏
@albertfrancis336 I've also been looking into reducing my tinnitus symptoms, could you tell us more about what you do? Thanks!
I'm so happy to have found your work. I have recently bought a few forks and am slowly learning. I'm planning to share some info in a tiny friendly group where I'm going to show some RUclipss from you and some other Sound Healers and then we can all try my forks and I'll give links for folk to explore everything further. I'll be strongly recommending that they watch all of your stuff. I love your style, nice and clear. Thank you for these excellent videos
Oh, wow! Thank you so much @Sandra Cleland for that very thoughtful and generous comment. I really appreciate it. I would also invite you to share any anecdotal feedback from your small group explorations as well! It is so helpful for all of us as a community to hear the results other people are achieving via sound healing. For example, sometimes, someone stumbles across an application for the forks, that none of us would have otherwise thought of. 😉 Thank you for you support and for taking the time to comment, and also for referring others to my channel. I really appreciate that.
Hey just wanted to send some gratitude for your resources ( Ive downloaded a copy - enjoy your coffee!) and respect for your teaching.
Its well paced, articulate and great visual and spoken guidance for the placements. You really are a wonderful teacher - thank you.
Wow! @Kalsolomon3581 that is extremely kind of you to say! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and leave this lovely, supportive comment. I really appreciate that. And I'm so glad you are getting value from my videos and the tuning fork therapy in general. Have a great day! I really appreciate you. 💖
Thankyou I found this video during an anxiety attack and my bp was very high and was searching to see if 128 helped bring down high blood pressure. I loved this video and at the end of the skull points I felt calm and clear headed THANKYOU❤️
@mignon1959 AMAZING! Thank you so much for letting me know. I love hearing feedback like this. It's so wonderful to hear all the positive ways that simple sound vibration dramatically impacts people's lives. Thank you for visiting the channel and for trying out my session.

@Boomer715 That's great! I'm so glad these videos can offer you some direction. This is only ONE video in an entire series, that guides you to use the tuning forks throughout your entire body. I am including a link to the full playlist, in case you'll find that helpful. Thanks again for supporting the channel! ruclips.net/p/PLcoajB6YZSO4z0FOAZdkSGa7_MOi7p2a8
Just used the tuning fork on the body as per your RUclips video. I have Afib and it improved dramatically. However it came back, not as dramatic and with some improvement. I’m going to assume that if I use it on a regular basis that the improvement will hold longer and longer. Thank you for your help. Besides all the medication I take, This routine helped the most, even after the initial improvement went down a little bit. Thank you for this video
@madfredbod this is incredible feedback. Sorry for taking so long to respond...it's been a busy week. But I want you to know how happy I am to hear about your personal experience. I hope that your symptoms continue to get better and better. Re: your A-fib, may I ask which points on your body you have found most effective in terms of tuning fork placement? Thank you for being a part of my community and for trying out these gentle methods of healing.
There is always so much tension in that area. This felt very soothing
I'm so glad to hear that! Did you do both the Face session and the Skull session in the same day?! Wow! You must be floating!😍 I'm glad the sessions felt so soothing and effective. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Thanks so much for the support @Bonnie Krause-Gams.
Thank you for these very interesting videos
You are quite welcome @user-dz3pv4ww3u I'm glad you're enjoying them. I hope they give you a good benefit! Thank you for watching and supporting the channel!
I felt relaxed and sleepy.
@Donna Olson that sounds like a pretty good result. Thank you so much for trying it out and for sharing this feedback. I really appreciate it.
Hi . I'm really glad I found your chanel! You are the first to make me aware of the contraindicated use of tuning forks near to metal implants !
I am currently studying sound healing therapy and about to begin to use singing bowls and tuning forks. Earlier this year
I had a complete wrist replacement . Joint replacement and permanent fusion . Alot of metal in my left wrist !!
Am I going to be able to use these bowls and forks ???
Hi @kristy williams Wow! Ok, it's a lot. Firstly, I saw that you just signed up for my FREE Breathing Course, so thank you very much for that. I hope you get some good value from it.🙏😊Secondly, in regards to metal parts, this may not be universally thought of as a contraindication by all sound therapists. Here's my two cents on it, and then hopefully you can make a more informed decision for yourself. Because of the nature of metal, some people might not find vibration over those areas comfortable, as it has a different vibratory quality than your human tissue. So one side of it is just comfort. Then, please remember also that I am sharing information publicly on RUclips and am not able to evaluate/assess my students on this platform. That means I am EXTRA cautious when sharing this type of information, because I really want everyone to be as safe as possible. The tuning forks have such a gentle vibratory nature, but I could see that with long-term use it could be possible that repeated vibration might loosen or dislodge a screw or a bolt. Now, we have to also consider that replacement parts are much better made now than they were 20 or 30 years ago, so there may be less to worry about there. My honest opinion, even if it means an uncomfortable conversation, is to simply ask your surgeon his/her thoughts. Does he/she foresee any issues with regular use of these vibratory tools. If he/she says no, then maybe it's fine! Do I think you're going to have a problem after one or two uses? No. But daily use, especially if you are considering becoming a practitioner yourself? You may just want to think about it. Ultimately, these sound instruments can be amazingly healing to the body and are awesome for pain reduction. So ideally, we'd like to be able to use them after surgery, including joint replacement. I always tell my students on this platform to work away from the area of replacement, but again, perhaps your surgeon knows best. Sorry to not be more definitive here and also to place doubt in your mind. I hope that this helps you to make a good decision for yourself.
@@BELightTT thankyou so much for taking the time to reply . I appreciate your explanation. I just hadn't thought of it ! But of course it makes absolute sense.
I will be paying alot closer attention what I am and have been around when I find it's uncomfortable. Which definitely happens now and then.
♡
@@kristywilliams9 great! I'm glad that was helpful. And also, you are doing these sound healing certifications. Maybe just ask your other teachers what their opinions are. But I agree with you that self-awareness is step one. Simply learning to pay attention to the signals coming from your body. Good luck with your studies! I wish you many happy years of sound healing.💖
I also was wondering about that. I have metal in my wrist and am wanting to know more about what she said.

OSTEOPOROSIS:
I get asked about osteoporosis probably more than almost anything else. My answer may not be perfect, but here is what I like to explain to people. I hope it helps:
Osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone.
Truth be told, there is some evidence out there that those full-body vibration platforms are quite useful for stimulating bone growth, and, in some cases, are being used to treat people with osteoporosis. This is a very different mechanism of action, however, than the localized vibration of a tuning fork, so I hesitate to compare them.
Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contact on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face, skull or feet, for example.
Also, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel. I appreciate it immensely.
I have bought the 128hz and 256 hz tuning forks. Using them for the first time with your knowledge. Thankyou. A question. Can they help children with hearing loss .?
@julzdiah8380 That's great! I love hearing this. I hope the forks bring you a lot of value. Please keep me updated with any interested personal discoveries!😃In terms of hearing loss...I really can't say with any amount of certainty what the result will be, Julz. I've never personally worked with a child who has hearing loss. I would imagine it depends a lot on the root cause of the hearing loss. And then, it will also depend on the individual child. You already have the forks, so it's certainly worth a try! You won't cause further damage. And maybe there will be some benefit. Again, please do keep me posted with the results. This is the way we all learn from each other. 🙏Thank you so much for supporting the channel. I appreciate you. Have a great night.

Great to hear @David Osborne! Thanks so much for watching and also for leaving this comment. I appreciate it.
Glad I found your site! My neck feels lighter. I have a pacemaker...oops! I listened to this afterwards. I'll be more aware now.
@marymarescalco569 Oh, I'm so glad this helped your neck! Yes, it can be a really wonderful self-treatment. So, as regards the pacemaker, you know, Mary, since I'm teaching on RUclips and I cannot evaluate the people watching my videos, I tend to be extra cautious with my recommendations. Let me ask you, how did you feel while using the fork? You didn't feel any negative disruption in your heart rate? Perhaps it will be totally fine for you. Whenever it comes to the heart, I always think it's a good idea to mention any new strategies to your cardiologist, just to get his/her opinion. But if you felt fine and had a great experience, that makes me super happy. Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel. I really appreciate you. Have a great day!
@BELightTT Good evening! I have the pacemaker because of Bradycardia. I wasn't thinking of it, and it felt good to use the fork. After I saw you mentioned a pacemaker, I also looked it up and said to not use near pacemaker, so I am going to ask my cardiologist. Thank you for mentioning it because it's an important thing to think about before using them. Thank you so much for your videos, I hope to keep learning from you!
@@marymarescalco569Oh good, I'm so glad you found further confirmation online regarding pacemakers and tuning forks. Also, yes, with the heart, it is always best to ask your cardiologist. Hopefully, he/she will give you the ok and you can continue to enjoy your tuning forks, as they are a wonderful tool for calming the mind and body. Please do keep me posted, Mary, as it helps me as well to hear a physician's opinion on this. Stay well and have a wonderful evening.
Thank you so much, Tara. So grateful to have found you🙏
A super important question..
Ia it a contraindication to use the Otto 128 weighted even in the abdominal or face if one haz osteoporosis? Or just don't use it directly on the bone.. ex.. knees, sternum, head?
I'd love greater clarification especially prior to me purchasing the manual.
Gratitude gratitude gratitude 🙌
@jude weber Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I saw your email as well, and promise to answer a bit later. But I wanted to make sure I touch on this osteoporosis question quickly, as this is asked quite often. Here is the answer I normally provide: Osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone. Although, honestly, there is also some data out there that those low-level full-body vibration platforms are quite useful for stimulating bone growth. But I would say that a vibration plate is quite different from a tuning fork, so it's not a perfect correlation. Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contact on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you maybe would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face and skull. Is this helpful? I hope so. I'll be in touch by email a bit later, Jude. Thanks for connecting.
Thanks so much for the video. Very instructed.
Thanks for watching @Arcesio Alomia. Glad it was helpful.
I could see a pink Aura around your head + the 128C Tuning Fork while you were using it….
@Quantum Light Oracle Reading Really?! Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing that with me. And thank you for watching. Have a beautiful day!
please turn the fork BY 90º FOR ALIGNMENT W/ THE MERIDIAN DU MO sounding forwards/backwards instead of more left/right!
Great effort with this video , thanks !
You're welcome!
Thanks that was nice 🎉
Thank YOU @juliepoulgrain7641 I appreciate you taking the time to watch, try it out, and comment. Have a great night!
Excellent video series! Very much needed information. I just got my first tuning fork. When you say metal parts and objects in the body, do you consider a stent in a coronary artery one of them?
Humanity needs side effect free holistic medicine. Keep up the good job! God bless!
@Laszlo Horog obviously since you are dealing with your heart, it is very important to ask your physician this question. However, I can tell you that I have had several people in the community ask this same question, and the consensus from their doctors seems to be that modern stents are very stable and can hold up to this gentle vibration without issue. Again, I cannot tell you what to do. My best advice would be to tell your physician that you are interested in using a gentle vibration tool on your body, and ask if they foresee any complications with your stent. If you do get any more information on this topic yourself, please do share it with me, as it's important and I like to stay as informed as possible.🙏
Also, thank you so much for your very kind words. I intend to keep offering value like this the best that I can. Have a blessed day!
@@BELightTT I really appreciate your honest advice. While you are absolutely correct that this vibration is so gentle and the heart is so deep inside behind several skin, bone and muscle tissues, I will still talk to my cardiologist about using OTTO 128 on or around the chest area. What is your opinion or the community's experience on using the vibration therapy with metal dental implants in the jaw? Thank you and God bless!
@@laszlohorog8586 Excellent! I am glad to hear you will speak to your cardiologist. In terms of the implants, this topic has also come up a few times in the community. Look, I am sure they were quite expensive to have put into your mouth, so you want to be sure to take care of them the best that you can. I think to work on your face and skull with the tuning fork will be just fine. Your implants should be very stable. But definitely do NOT use the tuning fork on/near your teeth, and maybe avoid the area directly around your lips, which would penetrate into the gum line. Does this sound reasonable? And, of course, if anything FEELS uncomfortable or "wrong" to you, simply stop. Your body knows best what it needs.😉 I hope this helps, Laszlo.
Hi, if I buy this one what will the benefits be if I buy the set of three, ie 128, 256, 512. Is three necessary?
@davidmichael3189 You are, of course, free to try out whatever you like. All my videos on this channel are devoted to the OTTO 128. I don't personally use a 256 or 512, so I can't really speak to those frequencies. I'm sure they have their own wonderful benefits. Best to go by the manufacturer's description and also the reviews, if you are interested in trying them. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. I appreciate you!
Hi 💛 from 🇬🇧 😊.
My first ever weighted tuning fork is due to arrive today. I've never used one before. It's a 111 Hz. Will that be OK to use on the skull in the same way as your 128 Hz 🤔.
By the way, I have just subscribed to your channel, so much info for a newbie. Thank you 😉.
@Smuzzy Wumbles I really appreciate the subscribe. Thank you so much for that! I, honestly, have never used a 111Hz, but after reading up on it, it sounds like a great choice. I'm pretty sure there are a few others in the community also working with a 111Hz tuning fork. If you follow my channel for a while, you'll find that I am quite un-dogmatic and that I really encourage people to do a lot of self-exploration. The best way to truly know if something will work well for you or not, is to simply try it! The tuning forks are really quite safe, and lend themselves well to this type of exploration. For that, absolutely, I believe you can use the 111Hz in the same way that I am using the 128Hz, and receive a similar benefit. I'm excited for you to receive your fork today! Please bookmark my Tuning Fork Video Series Playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLcoajB6YZSO4z0FOAZdkSGa7_MOi7p2a8 Please feel free to ask any questions, at any time. And also, if you are interested, I just recently created a simple OTTO 128Hz Tuning Fork Manual for my students. That can be purchased on my website: www.belighttt.com/offers/G2GzhJXk or my Buy Me a Coffee page: www.buymeacoffee.com/belighttt/e/61997 I hope this helps, Smuzzy Wumbles. Reach out any time and I'm thrilled to have you in the community.
When using the fork on my head the vibration absorbs quickly. Way faster than yours. Does that mean that it needs more? Thank you for all your amazing content❤
Hi @Cosmic Vegan Chick Hmmmm, it could be a few things. 1. Sometimes when I'm teaching these tutorials via video and I'm talking a lot (aka "too much" LOL😂) I don't always move the fork as soon as I feel the vibration ends. Sometimes, I'll finish my sentence first. So not every application in this video might be a totally accurate depiction of how long the vibration lasts. 2. The duration of vibration can correlate somewhat with the quality of your fork. It just depends what it's made of. 3. If you find your fork is dying out too quickly, you can strike it harder. It will vibrate proportionately to how hard you strike it. There's a limit when striking it on the body (because it hurts after a while), but you can get a rubber striker to assist with your practice. I hope that helps! Thank you so much for watching and commenting. Enjoy!
@@BELightTT the interesting thing is that it vibrates longer on different parts of the body. My third eye soaks it up in 4 seconds as well as my
Massage clients. My heart vibration lasts a good 15 or more seconds. The top of my head was very quick and seems that the rest of my body lasts much longer
@@cosmicveganchick9014 Yea, that IS super interesting! I don't have a perfect answer for you. You know, on a physical plane, there is definitely going to be something to the density of different areas of the body and how they absorb the vibration. But I know you are looking for the more energetic answer here. You know, play around with it. It sounds like you are an experienced bodyworker. I would follow your intuition on this one, based on yours and your clients' other symptoms and concerns. It's super interesting for sure. Keep exploring and experimenting! That's the best way to learn. 🙌💖🤩 And thank you for sharing this with me. I LOVE to hear what other people are experiencing with the forks. 😊
II jsut found your video. I recently had tuning fork used on my head, shoulders and for fluid retention by my acupuncturist. I love your detailed percise video. I am looking to buy a tuning fork. It was recommended that I get the 128. I went on Amazon and there are so many... Do you have a specific recommendation.?
Hi @Debbie I Correa Thank you so much for watching and commenting on my video. I am so glad you are interested in getting an OTTO 128 for home use. That's wonderful. Debbie, if you check the comment I have pinned to the top of the comments section (which is also pinned to the top of ALL my tuning fork videos), it offers a number of tuning fork resources and their associated links. I will copy those links for you here, as you may find something of personal value.
To answer your question more specifically, I purchase all of my tuning forks from BioSonics. They are a bit of an investment, but I believe that tuning forks are healing instruments that will last a lifetime and are worth the initial investment. Plus, BioSonics is owned by one of my teachers and I really trust the quality and integrity of his forks. Here is the link to the OTTO 128 that I use and recommend to all of my students: biosonics.com/product/otto-tuner-128-weighted/ref/527/

@@debbieicorrea672 I'm super excited for you! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Welcome to the community. I'm so happy to connect with you.😊
Thanks so much for your detailed videos !!!🙏 I fractured my left wrist 20 years ago n have a whole bunch of platinum pins in it ! is it ok that im holding the tuning fork in my left hand while working on my scull ?
@SH B Well isn't this the million dollar question?😳 Firstly, thank you so much for watching, for trying out this work and for commenting. Your question is a great one and an important one. Here's what I will say. Please understand that since I am teaching self-care tools via a digital platform and I cannot control who sees these videos or supervise how they use the information, I tend to lean toward being extra cautious with my guidelines. In general, I would say stay away from any pins, only because over time, I fear the consistent vibration might loosen something. Will it happen from a single use? No. Might it happen with repeated use? It's quite possible. Especially since this is an old surgery which utilized less modern techniques and tools. Let me ask you, do you feel any pain or strange sensations when the vibration travels through your left hand? You may be ok to use your left hand occasionally for this practice. But, if possible, I would simply use your right hand instead whenever you can, if that's an option for you. Sorry to not be able to give you a 100%, super precise answer, but I do hope this helps. 💖
@@BELightTT Thank you for your reply ! Im very new to this and have used it only once for my scull and didn't really feel any aches or pain or any strange feeling in my left wrist ! so I will take your advice on using my right hand as much as possible !
@@shb7809 Great! Again, it's just to be extra cautious. I'm sure using your left hand once in a while will be fine, but an emphasis on the right hand seems wiser as a long-term plan. 😉
Where do you strike the tuning fork? Where you hold it or on one of the two pieces?
@deelanastyron93 Thanks for watching and asking this question. You might like to watch this video on "How to Strike Your Tuning Fork" ruclips.net/video/WZkjOWddhKQ/видео.htmlsi=APHtI3hPH_sSGTY1 I hope you find it useful. Thanks for stopping by the channel and have a great day!
Hello. Will be a problem if we have crowns, bridges or dental implants?
It's a great question. 1. Never use the tuning forks on the teeth - even through the skin of the lips and cheeks. 2. I believe the low-grade vibration will be safe, but it's best to check with your oral surgeon to make sure that the vibration from the tuning forks won't disrupt anything in your mouth long-term. 3. I think it's totally fine to work other areas of the face and skull - away from the jaw - without any issue at all. I hope this helps! Thank you so much for watching and commenting.
Thank you 👍
Hello, love your videos they are well put together. I have a weighted fork 128 c is it the same as your Otto 128 .
Hi @Rose m Nieves YES! OTTO is usually just another word for "weighted", as it implies a more osteopathic focus (meaning contacting and vibrating through the bone), and the 128Hz frequency is definitely considered a C when based off of the A=432Hz tuning. So, yes, your weighted 128 C is perfect. 😊 Thank you for watching and commenting.
Ty for your informative videos! Im a total beginner.. why is it recomended not to do this on ppl with osteoporosis
@Moon Godess thank you so much for watching and asking this great question. While the tuning fork vibration is gentle, it is still powerful and still travels through the entire body. If someone has very weak or brittle bones, the vibration can fracture them and cause a lot of pain. Imagine a sound wave shattering a mirror or thin piece of glass. Vibration can be powerful. Now, there is some research that full-body vibration of low intensity might actually stimulate bone growth and assist people with weak bones. But that is something very different from the tuning forks. To err on the side of caution, it has always been recommended to me to avoid weak bones with the tuning forks. I hope this helps. Thank you so much for watching.
@@BELightTT ty for replying! What a superb answer!🙏
@@moongodess639 You're welcome! I hope that answer was helpful for you. Enjoy!
Hi. Is there any way possible that I can buy the weights for my tuning forks, or do I have to already buy the forks with the weights on them? Can you point me in the direction of the weights for my forks?
@simplymuffin08 This is an excellent question. Honestly, I've never seen the weights sold separately, but I've also never actually looked! LOL😂 It must be possible that some distributor is selling them separately, right? As every business making tuning forks must purchase them in that way. Unfortunately, I don't have any leads for you. I am not in the tuning fork business, in terms of selling, distributing, manufacturing, etc. I wish you luck with your search. If you discover a viable option, please let me know. Thanks so much for stopping by the channel and have a great day!
Perhaps, from so many years of negligence to my body, I might be desensitized to this exercise. I am also concerned that the tuning fork I purchased might now be such a good one because it doesnn't vibrate for very long. While watching the video, it seems that your fork vibrates much longe than mine. The tuning fork I bought is a LaSage. It is made in China.
@Mary Kirschner don't give up! May I ask what attracted you to tuning forks in the first place, Mary? If they resonate with you, I invite you to keep trying. Maybe your skull is not the place you will feel it most. Did you try using them on your sternum? For me, that always seems to be the spot that resonates universally with people. Perhaps because it is right over the heart. You can take a look at my video about using the tuning fork on the sternum & ribs here: ruclips.net/video/WqIpqCoav64/видео.html In terms of tuning fork quality, yes, that can be an issue. To be clear, the tuning fork will ring relative to how hard you strike it. And because I am talking a lot during these videos, you cannot always tell exactly when my vibration runs out. Don't let that be the discouraging point. Do you feel the vibration at all? The fork I recommend to people is more expensive than the one you own, but it is produced by one of my teachers, so I really trust the quality. If you are ever interested in taking a look, here is my affiliate link. Of course, there is no pressure to buy another fork, if you don't feel called to do so. biosonics.com/product/otto-tuner-128-weighted/ref/527/ I hope you'll keep trying, Mary. Please let me know if you have any specific questions and please keep me posted on your progress.
I had a hip replacement. I have a pin in my hip. When you said don't use the tuning fork; did you mead just in that area or did you mean to not use it at all?
@Steven Larsen thank you for this wonderful question. I say this to be extra cautious, because the fact is, the vibration travels through your whole body. However, the vibration coming from the OTTO 128 is very gentle. I would say that you could use your OTTO 128 from the chest up without any concern. Does that also feel ok to you? Are you most interested in using the tuning fork on your face and skull?
ha just read your comment about taking off the weights and swapping them to another tuning fork,..........I never thought of that!!, I used the 174 unweighted tuning fork and got bad results for my tmj, I suppose I can put weights onto it and see how it goes.
whats your opinion on the higher freqnecies on joints (like your jtemporal mandibular joint) verses the lower frequencies?
@GM Sinding I had actually never thought of that either! LOL🤣 It was a member of my Community who originally tried it and told me she got great results with it.😊 When you say you got "bad results", do you mean you had a negative reaction? Or it was simply ineffectual? You can certainly try it as a weighted fork and see how you respond. I do think actually being able to hold the fork to the body and really feel the vibration does have a powerful result. In terms of the frequency, I have not worked much with the 174Hz, so I cannot speak from experience. But if you already have it available and are willing to give it a try, I would say go for it! You have nothing to lose. If you have a "bad reaction", it will inevitably be temporary. But ultimately, you'll never know how you'll respond until you try it. I wish you lots of luck and am hoping for a miraculous outcome for you. If you don't mind, please keep me posted. I would love to hear about your results.
I would like your opinion on breast implants, would it be a problem to use this tool anywhere on my body?
@user-hr1zn9sv71 I honestly have never done this work on someone with implants, but I also don't really foresee any issue. The vibration from the forks is really quite gentle. I can't really imagine it being strong enough to disrupt the implants. With any serious concern like this, I would definitely encourage you to seek the opinion of your plastic surgeon. But in my inexperienced opinion (which doesn't mean that much), I think you will be fine. I hope this helps. Thank you so much for stopping by the channel!
@@BELightTT Thank you very much for your prompt reply. You are very sweet and kind!

What points do I use for headache, back and front of my head thanks
@Kevin Adams thanks for watching and commenting. Headaches can be tricky, as they are different for everyone. You'll have to experiment and see what works best for you. The tuning forks should be helpful, but there are cases where the increased blood flow and general attention can exacerbate the symptoms of a headache. I would say go through this whole SKULL session, and see which points feel the most generally relieving for you. Then use those points during an active headache and see if you get relief. If you regularly get headaches, I would definitely recommend doing a self-session like this 1-2 times during the week between bouts of acute symptomology, in order to try to keep the headaches at bay. I hope that helps. For headaches, you might also really love the FACE session. Here's a link to that video: ruclips.net/video/whMyYqfvQBw/видео.html Have a great day!
Is this safe if you have a Chiara Malformation (grade 1).
Hi @catherinehofstede3038 I'm really not sure. I've never worked with anyone with chiari malformation. In this case, it is really best to ask your physician. Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel. I hope you find the answer you're looking for. Have a great day!
I have the Otto 128 tuning fork but am a little confused why you can not use it if you have osteoporosis,? Maybe I missed the explanation, but since I have it and want to use my tuning fork, what can I do instead?
@Sue LaRocco osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone. Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contacts on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you maybe would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face and skull. Is this helpful?
Can I use this tuning fork to heal my glaucoma？ Thank you very much!
@See Lee wow! This is a powerful question. Firstly, I would never claim that a tuning fork can "heal" anything, but it can help to create an internal environment that allows your body to regulate. Secondly, I have to claim total ignorance here. How far advanced is your glaucoma? I have honestly never worked with a patient with glaucoma and I can't think of an example from any of my fellow practitioners either. I'm so sorry. I am going to say "no", as I do not want to mislead you. But I would also encourage you to keep searching and experimenting. You have to keep trying things in order to see what works and what doesn't. I wish you lots of luck on your journey. Thank you for your question.
Thank you for your answer and you are so amazing! I have glaucoma for 3 years and have my eye drops everyday. I just want to find another natural way to treat my glaucoma and I know exactly what you mean! I should use the word "improve" instead of "heal". Thank you for your prompt reply.
@@seelee4048 I wish you lots of luck on your search. I hope you find something miraculous. If you ever have a positive experience with tuning forks, please come back and let me know as I would love to hear your story. Many thanks and be well!
Sure I will ! You are so kind-hearted ! May God bless you with all the best !
@@seelee4048 Thanks so much! And same to you. 😊
Is there any advantage of using a lower fundamental frequency to the ones used in this video?
@John Gordon which frequency are you thinking about using? There can certainly be benefit. I use the OTTO 128 because number 1 I own one, but number 2 because it's so utilitarian. The teacher I have studied with, John Beaulieu, uses a number of different frequencies for stimulating different aspects of the physiology. For example, he'll use an OTTO 64Hz exclusively on the sacrum during his cranio-sacral sessions to help balance the autonomic nervous system. He'll use an OTTO 32 Hz to mobilize lymph through the body. If your goal is to alter brain waves, for example, you're definitely going to want to get into some lower frequencies. There are so many books and resources, John. If this is interesting to you, I would recommend exploring a little on your own. I can recommend John Beaulieu's book as a starting point, but I am sure there are many other great options out there as well: biosonics.com/product/human-tuning-sound-healing-with-tuning-forks/ref/527/ I hope that helps! Thanks for watching and for commenting.
Hi. I have osteopenia and fractures. Can I use unweighted fork? Thank you
Maria, I wouldn't do it. It's not a good idea. The vibration is subtle, but can still make any fracture or bone weakness worse. Please be cautious. Thank you for your question. I am sorry I did not see it earlier. Be well.
Ma'am please elaborate how does the effect change with change of frequency ,I mean what if the frequency is more or less than 128 Hz.
Hi, Rajesh. Yes, it is a very good question. But working with different frequencies can get complex. You will find a lot of different people claiming different things for different frequencies. Some my have some scientific evidence, but some may just be basing their theories on anecdotal evidence. That is why I decided to ONLY focus in on this ONE frequency: the 128Hz. I feel comfortable and confident with "the general benefits one may expect to experience" from using this fork. If you are interested in other frequencies, I think you should definitely explore more on your own. Sound Healing can be so powerful. As a very GENERAL rule, lower frequencies tend to resonate more with lower chakras, and higher frequencies tend to resonate more with higher chakras. But that is just the tip of the iceberg. This conversation can go very deep. I would encourage you to read up on it a bit. The one book I always suggest is written by one of my teachers, John Beaulieu...it is called Human Tuning: biosonics.com/product/human-tuning-sound-healing-with-tuning-forks/ref/527/ But if that is not accessible to you, I know there are many books written on this topic. Please explore. Because you are so interested right now, I know you will find the right book for your purposes. 😊
Can you use the 128 on the skull for helping heal from stroke or TBI (Traumatic brain injury)
@Marc Shroetter I am not an MD, and I am doubtful that we have any data in regards to your question, so please do not take my response for well-founded medical advice. My most cautious answer would be to definitely ask your physician. I do not anticipate any contraindications, but I really cannot say for sure. I can tell you that the OTTO 128 is show to cause a local release of nitric oxide, which is a vasodilator. I would think in most cases, this would be helpful for anyone who has suffered with a stroke or CVD. If you do ask your physician, and you think of it, please do come back to me and let me know their response. Many thanks! 🙏Have a wonderful week.
How is it for helping mitochondria?
@@marcshroetter6083 These questions are outstanding. And I wish I had more concrete answers for you, but unfortunately, there is no research, as far as I know, investigating the effects of a 128Hz frequency on the mitochondria (if you stumble across any, please do let me know🙏). Most of the concrete science I've seen from lab studies mostly describes the 128Hz as boosting nitric oxide, which in turn balances the autonomic nervous system, along with immune function, and helps with the natural release of anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory modulators in the body.
Can it help to control hair loss?
@catalinafernandezlopez1407 I've often wondered this myself. I don't have any anecdotal evidence to suggest it does. If you wanted to experiment in a very consistent and disciplined way, daily, it might be worth seeing what happens. It will also depend on what is causing the hair loss, as that issue is so multi-factorial. I don't have the patience myself to do this experiment, but if you try it out, please let me know your results! Thanks so much for stopping by the channel, for watching and for commenting.

Why are some tuning forks so much cheaper than others? What makes them more costly?
@Elly Alvois it's a good question. I imagine a part of it is the material they're made out of. Another part will be where in the world they are made (production/manufacturing costs). How much/how long they resonate/vibrate will be a major component. How accurately they are tuned to a specific frequency is another component. I think, like anything, it's material costs and craftsmanship. I know that John designed his forks, for example, to have a lot of overtones, because he believes that is imperative to their therapeutic quality. Whereas a typical tuning fork is designed to be as pure-toned as possible, with as few overtones as possible. Not sure if this helps or not...🤷♀️
@@BELightTT Thank you for that detailed explanation. 🙏
@@ellyalovis640 Hope it helps!
Hi! Why not On osteoporosis?
Hi @Denise Iacobecu it's a great question, and one that I get asked probably more than any other. For that reason, I am copying and pasting the answer that you can also find in the comment pinned to the top of this page. I hope it helps give you a more informed answer. Take care and thank you for stopping by the channel:
OSTEOPOROSIS:
I get asked about osteoporosis probably more than almost anything else. My answer may not be perfect, but here is what I like to explain to people. I hope it helps:
Osteoporosis means you have weakened areas of bone, prone to fracture. Imagine how a high-pitched frequency shatters glass or a mirror. Your bones are susceptible to the vibration that travels through them. Is it a guarantee that the low-level frequency of the OTTO 128 will cause an issue? No. But there is some concern with continued use on an osteoporotic bone.
Truth be told, there is some evidence out there that those full-body vibration platforms are quite useful for stimulating bone growth, and, in some cases, are being used to treat people with osteoporosis. This is a very different mechanism of action, however, than the localized vibration of a tuning fork, so I hesitate to compare them.
Of course, you are free to do as you like, but I tend to be extra cautious, especially when teaching on RUclips, as I am not able to see you with my own eyes and evaluate your personal needs. I would say if you want to use your OTTO 128 on your body, perhaps avoid direct contact on the areas of osteoporosis. Meaning, if you have osteoporosis in your lumbar spine/hips, you would want to use your tuning fork away from those areas, on the face, skull or feet, for example.
Also, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel. I appreciate it immensely.
@@BELightTT Thank you so much for taking the time to answer me! Your explanation is very helpful. God bless!
What is that point on the end of your fork? Mine is biosonics and just has a short stem without an end
Hi @Bonnie Krause-Gams That thing on the end of my fork is called a "gem foot". It can be a pretty pricey addition to your fork, but I love it for the ease of holding the fork, for the wider surface area it offers, and for that small amount of crystal energy that it adds to the session. If you are interested in purchasing one, here is my affiliate link to BioSonics: biosonics.com/product/clear-quartz-gem-foot-attachment-2/ref/527/ Of course, you can also feel free to browse around the internet and see what else is out there. And just so you know, I always try to be as thorough as possible in my video descriptions, so if you ever get tired of waiting for me to respond, please check the description for all pertinent links. 😉 Hope this helps!
Here for it !!!
I only have the weighted 128 and 144z
Hope to acquire the 136.1
Awesome! Happy to have you back. Let me know what you discover. And for my series, all you need is the 128Hz. But I'd be very curious (as I'm sure others would be as well) as to if you notice a substantial difference between using the 128 and the 144.
@@BELightTT haven’t done the skull points yet. OOooh, I’m sure that will be life changing , reverberating my skull and everything inside it hehe.. my 144 fork sounds great but has a deep uncomfortable groove in the point of contact. Same seller same manufacturer as the 128 I have. I need attachments for it. Those are more pricey than the fork ...
@@foxyauragems6146 Aw, that stinks! Yes, the end part of the fork can sometimes be uncomfortable. And yes, those gem feet are more expensive than the forks! I know! Search "end pieces" or "handles" for tuning forks. The gem feet are only expensive because of the gem stones. But you may find some kind of attachment for the fork that is simply rounded metal, without the gem stone. One of my subscribers actually repurposed a wooden file handle (like you would use in a tool shop) and attached it to his OTTO 128. He says the vibration is still excellent and the rounded wooden handle is super comfortable. Plus, a file handle only costs about $6, but it takes a little bit of labor and craftsmanship to install. 🤷♀️ Sorry I don't have a perfect solution for you. I know you will find something. It's in the forefront of your consciousness now! 😉
I want to have your babies....or at least help!!!! (great presentation)
Thanks, Theodore....I think🤔
My Otto 128 came with an allen wrench. What do I do with it? Is it for moving the position of the weights?
TM
@T Mitsuya-gmail oh, interesting! You're lucky! Mine did not come with an allen wrench.😪 Yes, I would say it serves two purposes. 1. if you also purchased a gem foot to use as a handle, the allen wrench will tighten your gem foot onto the base of the fork. 2. Apparently, you can take your weights off the prongs and use your fork as an UNweighted tuning fork, allowing it to just ring out (without the weights, it will not be useful for creating vibration through the body.) OR you can apparently place those same weights onto another unweighted tuning fork, if you have one (creating a weighted tuning fork with a different frequency than the 128Hz). Truthfully, I didn't always realize you could do that. But I've had several students use the same weights on multiple forks with the help of the allen wrench. You should not have to adjust the position of the weights. They should be placed pretty close to the ends of the prongs. (Please check the video to see where my weights are located in relationship to the ends of the prongs.) I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions, and I'm so excited for you to explore more with your OTTO 128. Please let me know how it goes! 😊
