I just graduated. Why do I have to take a test?

Sound healing education is becoming more popular. Powerful sound healing tools are readily available. WIth this growth in popularity is also a surge in less than quality education. Although rare, sound therapy used incorrectly or inappropriately can potentially cause harm. Protecting our profession from those just attempting to make a quick dollar is of paramount importance to us. Helping you be the very best sound therapist and feeling confident in using sound as a wellness modality is also of great importance. As more and more “therapists” open shop or incorporate sound healing into practices, the liability risk also increases. Secondly, we want to ensure we can protect the profession, therapists and reputation of sound therapy. Protecting clients, the profession and therapists is our aim.
