Biofield Tuning

  • Biofield Tuning is a therapeutic technique that uses sound and vibration to balance and restore the body’s energetic field, or “biofield.” Practitioners use tuning forks to identify and address areas of imbalance, helping promote overall wellness.

  • During a session, Michelle assesses the client’s biofield, which extends several feet beyond the body, and uses calibrated tuning forks to create specific vibrations. These sounds interact with the energy field, helping release blockages, stored emotions, and supporting the body’s natural self-healing processes.

  • Michelle works with individuals seeking self-healing, stress relief, emotional release, pain relief, improved sleep, or heightened awareness of their energy. It can be especially helpful for those carrying unresolved emotions, chronic tension, or seeking personal growth.

  • Many clients report deep relaxation, increased energy flow, emotional release, and a stronger sense of connection to themselves. Some also experience enhanced spiritual awareness and clarity in their physical, emotional, and energetic states.

  • Biofield Tuning integrates both. Michelle combines scientific principles, including research into energy fields and neuroscience, with spiritual practices that encourage connection to oneself and the universe. The practice addresses the body as both a physical and energetic being.

  • Anyone interested in holistic healing, emotional and physical wellness, or self-awareness can benefit from sessions with Michelle. Whether seeking stress relief, pain management, emotional clarity, or a deeper spiritual connection, Biofield Tuning can support a transformative healing journey.
