Vibroacoustic Harp Therapy (VAHT), is a unique method of utilizing the vibrations of live therapeutic harp music to help bring one’s body back into balance. The harp is a resonant instrument and when it is played, one can easily feel the musical vibrations. The VAHT process harnesses the harp’s natural vibrations via amplification and channels them directly into a special mat that has embedded speakers. While lying on the mat, onw feels the harps vibrations moving through his or her body. Often the VAHT experience is said to feel like a musical massage.
