Everything you need to know about tuning forks

Whether you’re new to tuning forks or looking to deepen your sound healing practice, our FAQs cover everything you need to know. From understanding popular frequencies and materials to choosing the best tuning forks for healing, this guide will help you find the right tools for your practice.
 

What are tuning forks?

Tuning forks are a type of acoustic resonator that produce various frequencies depending on the tuning, they are often used for deep focus and relaxation. They are a two-pronged fork with the prongs forming a U-shap from the flexible metal.

When gently struck against a firm surface (e.g. the palm of your hand or knee) or an activator (e.g. a rubber block or mallet), the tuning fork resonates at a specific constant pitch. It emits a pure musical tone once the high overtones fade out.
 

What materials are tuning forks made from?

The two most common materials in the creation of tuning forks are steel and aluminium. We offer both, sourcing our tuning forks from the most reputable brands such as Planetware (Made in Germany) and Jonathan Goldman (made in the USA).

Opinions vary about which is superior when using tuning forks for healing, but both have their benefits. Steel provides a more accurate, stable frequency while aluminium can produce more overtones which can lead to a more neurally stimulating sonic experience.
 

What is the difference between Planetware tuning forks and Jonathan Goldman tuning forks?

Many of our Planetware tuning forks have a similar history to the Paiste Planetary Gongs, which are precisely tuned to the orbital frequencies of celestial objects in our solar system. These vibrations (frequencies) have been made audible thanks to the work of Hans Cousto and a team of scientists and musicians and his discovery of the Cosmic Octave.

Team member Fritz Dobretzberger initiated the production of planetary tuning forks around this time. Twelve years later, along with Cousto, he founded the Planetware Infopool to share information about the Cosmic Octave.

Our other tuning forks are from Jonathan Goldman, an expert in sound healing and harmonics. His collection of tuning forks takes inspiration from different philosophies on frequencies. For example, his Chakra Tuning Forks set features seven tuning forks relating to the traditional Vedic Chakra system, and an eighth tuning fork for the chakra thats said to hovers above the crown of the head, sometimes known as “The Transpersonal Chakra”.
 

What are the best tuning forks for healing?

Tuning forks are powerful tools for sound healing, loved for their ability to create precise vibrations that align with the body’s natural rhythms.

Often used in practices like sonopuncture, healing with tuning forks involves applying gentle frequencies to specific points, encouraging energy flow and deep relaxation. Whether you’re exploring tuning forks for the first time or seeking the best tuning forks for healing, these simple yet effective instruments can help restore harmony and support wellbeing.
