How therapists use Alphamusic of John Levine
"The whole Alphamusic Range"
Mervyn, Shiatsu and Quantum Touch Practitioner
Mervyn loves Alphamusic. Two years ago he had heard John Levine being interviewed on BBC Radio, a sample of one of his pieces, Orange Grove Siesta was played. He heard that John was in Cambridge showcasing his new album so he went along to the presentation and bought couple of Alphamusic CDs. Mervyn said that radio program sparked in him enough interest that he wanted to listen to more of it. Previously he had used similar types of music but since he found Alphamusic he hasn’t used anything else. He plays it in the background when he is treating clients, it really relaxes them and some of his clients have been known to fall asleep during the treatment which happens more now than before!
He used to feel tired after giving treatments all day, but the music helps him to feel revitalised and give a better service to his clients.
Once or twice Mervyn forgot to take his CD player with him to treatment sessions and there was no music. Clients noticed the difference and told him he must not forget the music next time!
Cicely, 37, a beauty therapist
Cicely specializes in aromatherapy, Indian head massage, Swedish massage and No-Hands massage®.
Cicely believed that all relaxation music, from start to finish, was very similar, with few actual benefits to sway her decision other than how many times she’d heard it before and whether she could bear to listen to it again.
One day she decided to try the ‘Silence of Balance’ CD during one of her client’s Indian Head Massages. Within a few moments she felt noticeably more relaxed and calm, as did her client who immediately asked about this musical composition. “I found it more than just music, it really touched my soul. When I listen to Alphamusic, I feel more relaxed and I find more energy to work,” says Cicely. It calms her mind and also her body’s muscular tension. She thinks that energy is trapped in the body, like being held in a small tunnel and it needs to be released somehow. Alphamusic has such a huge soothing effect that it helps this trapped energy to get free. From that day, Cicely predominantly uses John’s Alphamusic for all her relaxing treatments, because it has such a comforting and longer lasting effect.
“I needed music that I would feel comfortable with, and now I have found the perfect fit.”
Susan, therapist
Susan specializes in Craniosacral Therapy, Somato Emotional Release & advanced Energy Healing Techniques and also working as a HypnoBirthing® Practitioner.
Susan listened to John Levine’s Alphamusic and recognized it as exceptional immediately. “Listening to John’s music, I felt the positive energy pouring out of it. I immediately thought that my clients would benefit from this in our sessions. I was sure that my treatments were in sync with Alphamusic,” explained Susan. When she returned to her work she started playing Levine’s Alphamusic to her clients. She used different CDs for different patients. Since she has started using Alphamusic, she has noticed that the clients with emotional problems feel more relaxed and release their emotions more freely. Susan says that when the music is playing, oddly enough, “The treatment room feels much quieter.” Susan claims that thanks to this she can complete her work better; she is more focused and her clients are taken to deeper levels. “I have used Alphamusic everyday since I bought it.”
“I have seen the biggest difference on a Foster child I work with who went back into some of his memories and emotions from the womb.” says Susan. She has been teaching this 10 year-old how to body dowse for things and learn about his own energy. In last session she dowsed all John’s music in front of him and asked him which CD he would prefer to listen to. He chose ‘Silence of Play’. “This was interesting as he had an emotional weak - feeling that he was being suffocated and that every touch that his foster mother gave him was compressing him. In the treatment session he was yet again back in the womb and found that this is where the feeling of suffocation was coming from,” explained Susan. Then this child asked if he could build in his mind what he would like for himself. It was an emotional release that’s never happened before.
Jennifer, yoga teacher from Houston, USA
Jennifer claims that music is everything in her classes. It creates sort of energy. She chooses sounds to sculpt the atmosphere she wants to achieve. “To me everything is music. Its vibrational effect is the symphony I call life,” she explains. “John’s music is so beautiful. It allies with my profile, which is to open people up and is very healing and relaxing,” says Jennifer. She fell in love with John’s music and decided to invite him to Houston so he could share his talent with her friends and students in an Alphamusic concert! She even had to open up a special class where only Alphamusic is played. “Normally I play this music at the end of my classes, during the final meditation. In this class I also play it at the beginning, before we begin our practice.” All her students agree that this music has a very soothing and relaxing effect on them and it contains a very special element which comes from the intention of its creator, which is to open up to love and healing. “And I believe that’s part of John’s mission” says Jennifer. “I feel very tender sweetness that I believe resonates from his gentle thoughts. I recommend John’s music to everyone who wants to incorporate meditation and relaxation, so I think it should be every single person on this planet! Just relax and go then to find something deeper within yourself. I believe in the unity between yoga and music. It is the promotion of global healing. Appreciation, this is what we want to achieve in the end of our classes, conviction that we are one, not divided."
Carmen, massage therapist, UK
Carmen was trained in Swedish massage, aromatherapy, reflexology, Indian Head and Face massage, hot stones. Carmen is a highly qualified individual, MA, ITEC, MTIGB (The Massage Therapy Institute of Great Britain) and IFPA (International Federation of Professional Aromatherapists). She also studied at the London Center of Indian Champissage.
Carmen likes experiment with John’s music using different CDs for different clients. “I found John’s Alphamusic music very helpful for certain types of clients. I use my intuition to decide whether this client needs that type of music or which CD would be effective for them. I have some clients who have been known to be very stressed or agitated and who needed something very calming or and to allow them to breathe more freely. John’s music creates a very therapeutic and restful atmosphere for them,” admits Carmen.
One of Carmen’s long-term clients is Gemma. “I think Carmen is extremely accomplished at what she does. I usually go for aromatherapy as she always seems to know just what oils I want and what mood I’m in, she’s very astute.” thinks Gemma. “I always leave feeling serene and fresh and if we’ve been listening to ‘Silence of Heart’ then within perhaps 3 or 4 minutes of leaving her house I start to feel rushes of euphoria. It can be a phenomenal emotional boost, especially in times of difficulty.”
“The more I play it, especially for certain types of clients, the more benefits I see them have,” explains Carmen, “and it happens every time. They go into a much more relaxed state. John Levine’s Alphamusic has an effect on me as a therapist too. I am more intuitive, more focused on the needs of the clients,” observes Carmen. “Alphamusic music allows my clients to give themselves up to the massage. They say that they don’t use their heads and minds very much. They think more about physical sensation. I would definitely recommend this music.”
Joanna, therapist, UK
It was like a breath of fresh breeze. Joanna haven’t seen that content clients for a long time. “This music really helps people to relax and that is the whole idea of the massage and reflexology” thinks Joanna. “John’s CDs aren’t rubbish, messy and irritating like other relaxations CDs. They are what they are. They are simply relaxing.”
“Most of his CDs are so soft that I actually don’t hear them. They have soothing effect on me and my clients. I admit that my favorite one is Orange Grove Siesta, as when I listen to it I enjoy the atmosphere” claims Joanna.
“It is also very relaxing for me” claims Joanna, “it does help me to work better. I am more refreshed to heal the people. If the clients are relaxed it means that I did what I was supposed to do."
Lydia, hypnotherapist, UK
“John’s music is the only one that I play to my clients and also encourage them to listen to at home. Once I tired a different music, which supposed to be calming, but it turned out it wasn’t. It didn’t have the same effect as John’s Alphamusic.”
“My friend’s husband suffers from Parkinson for about eighteen years now. She came to me and asked me if I would do some hypnotherapy sessions for him. At the beginning, I wasn’t sure if that was off help, but as time goes, it convinced me that the way I’ve been treating him could do some good for him. Part of Parkinson symptoms is an awful shaking which really makes someone’s life difficult. I’ve been trying to give him some relief from it. While hypnosis I am playing him John’s ‘Silence of Heart’ and the results are absolutely fabulous. Under the hypnosis he doesn’t shake at all. When he came round from the session he felt much energized because he had been totally rested for an hour. It didn’t occur when he was in normal sleep. Another part of Parkinson is an easily agitated state. I asked his wife to play him ‘Silence of Heart’ anytime that it was possible. She has been doing this for the last couple of weeks, and she told me that it really makes him calmer” says Lydia. “Not only she reports that, but also her husband sees the difference in his own behaviour. He says that his agitated state lessens anytime he hears the Alphamusic tunes.”
