As we hear any sound, we hear them with an associated pitch and loudness. These properties are determined by the three phases of sound:
- Amplitude
- Wavelength
- Frequency
However, after many trials, errors and accidents, we learned that the combination of these within a granite piano fitted with a granite bridge as its catalyst can produce results beyond that of traditional musical therapy. This phenomenon cannot be described in terms of three phases of sound, in fact, it seemed to be in another phase altogether, and that is why we decided it deserved one of its own: ‘Healing’ is the Fourth Phase of Sound.
Many would agree that sound is very comforting and “heals” the soul, and definitely a mood changer, but what we discovered with the granite piano’s augmented sound is that our sound can enter a Fourth Phase, and that phase is far-reaching beyond-human-hearing, high harmonics with the ability to heal body’s natural healing mechanisms physically. Not just sooth the common beast and enjoyable, but physically correct issues in the body (heal), which we’ve never seen on a piano before. This Phase has been witnessed in the Giza Pyramid’s King Chamber by a scientist*, and I’m sure many rock monuments like Stonehenge, Coral Castle healing table, and most certainly the Pool of Bethesda appearing in the Bible in John 5. It’s not something we invented, but rather rediscovered that which has occurred in the past.
Why was it hard to believe? That issue has had many facets, which we assume is because the relation between sound and stone is difficult to nail down what it can do, and in history the only records we could maybe speculate stone was responsible for is sporadic healing at best. Plus, it’s difficult to enter into the healing phase, as conditions need to be correct to push sound into that boundary, which in itself is a complex sequence, and because many different parameters are involved as healings are related to completely different pressures and pitches with the piano bombarding many of the different pitches, and by adding stone we have extreme pressure against the harp, sound board, and strings, so we have the best chance of addressing as many different medical conditions as possible within a short time frame.
The difference is that playing a regular wood bridge piano has enjoyment, but in the 50 years of my piano tuning experience they never physically healed me of anything, and I’ve been around sound as a job more than most. In fact, I’m up-close banging on the notes of a piano to settle the strings while tuning, and it’s of a sonic blast than a blessing. On the first couple tunings in the day, I’m usually fine, but after tuning 3 or 4 pianos in one day, my wife said I look as if someone beat me up, which isn’t far from the truth, as I have been sonically beat up by being that close to the source of the hammer hitting the strings with force. It’s like listening to a loud noise for too long.
This sonic blast and abuse to the system is why when I was a teenager there was an article in the paper saying that piano tuners were in the top 10 occupations for alcoholics, and my responses was “yeah, but I don’t drink”, which my boss at the Baldwin Store said, “you will”. What I didn’t know then but now do… is he was right! I assume it was linked to the piano tuners going home after work and needing to unwind, so they would stop at the local bar and have a few drinks to settle down before heading home, but then it became more of a habit, and not necessarily that they needed a depressing moment.
Now with the granite piano, it is the total opposite. The “percussive hurt” normal wood bridge pianos have doesn’t exist, as the tone of a granite piano has the harmonics reach farther, so it becomes more harmonically rounded and bellish in the treble (not piercing).
Secondly, the granite piano seems to charge up the body, it doesn’t take it down or drain it, so the brain has more energy instead of getting blasted with loud noises. The body accepts energy instead of rejecting it, with granite being the translator of the energy using a dense or tight matrix is what we are proposing!
We noticed that the body started getting healed of muscle and brain-related issues, so we knew there was something different going on that we’d never witnessed before. That is why we call the granite piano “The Healing Piano”, because of testimonies and observation witnessed by those healed. We never thought or knew that this could happen, and it took us all by surprise.
So, this has led us to this moment in time where we have these registered trademarks and now named what we have found as The Fourth Phase of Sound (healing appearing) generated by the granite piano.
You may ask how we can make such outlandish claims, and the answer to that is we can now create a healing condition on demand that is repeatable in many cases. Muscle aches can diminish or be gone by just listening to the granite piano for an hour, or help those that are suffering from Alzheimer’s, as it’s been suggested that the brain receiving enough energy can reconnect the synapse, therefore previous memories thought lost forever could come forth again. In our first test the person started remembering their kids and many details that have been lost for years, plus began talking almost fluently with just 2.5 hours of granite piano energy. By total accident, we now have a whole new healing world open for us to explore and hopefully help many that have been suffering without hope.
