They are part of an ancient tradition of spiritual rituals utilized in Buddhism.(www.takibyoga.com) <br />The Bowls are beautifully crafted out of metal (each bowl has its' own unique sound!)with a wooden handle for creating the "singing" sound. <br />Scientific research has investigated the effect of sound on a body... actually can change molecular structure, as well as harmonize the right and left hemispheres of the brain!

A 20 minute Chair Massage is a convenient, affordable way to sample a new way to de-stress! <br /><br />Stretching, spending time outdoors in nature and meditation are simple yet effective ways to incorporate this concept into your everyday life!
