Tuning Fork Therapy for Dogs
Using tuning forks to promote energetic balance and relaxation in dogs as part of holistic wellness care.
Tuning fork therapy is gaining attention in holistic pet care as a gentle and non-invasive way to support a dog’s physical and emotional well-being. By using sound vibrations, tuning forks help release energy blockages, reduce tension, and promote balance throughout the body.
Denise Bozenski, founder of Revive & Thrive Canine Wellness, explains, “Tuning forks create specific frequencies that resonate with tissues and energy centers, helping to clear stuck energy and enhance natural healing processes.”

What Is Tuning Fork Therapy?
Tuning forks are metal instruments that produce precise sound vibrations when struck. When applied near or on the body, these vibrations can influence muscle tension, nervous system regulation, and energetic flow. They can also be used on acupressure points and meridians to enhance energetic balance and promote healing.
Denise shares, “Unlike massage or bodywork, tuning forks offer a subtle energetic shift that can complement physical therapies and mental well-being work.”

Understanding Tuning Fork Frequencies and Their Benefits
Tuning forks come in a variety of frequencies, each designed to resonate with different tissues, energy centers, or healing goals. These frequencies influence the body in unique ways, supporting physical, emotional, and energetic health.
Denise Bozenski explains, “Different frequencies target specific areas—some promote relaxation, others stimulate healing or clear energetic blockages. Knowing which frequency to use is key in tailoring sessions to your dog’s needs.”

Common Frequencies and Their Uses
128 Hz (Root Frequency): This low frequency helps ground energy, reduces anxiety, and supports the base of the spine where many stress-related tensions accumulate. It’s often used to calm nervous dogs or those with chronic pain.
256 Hz (Physical Healing): Known to support cellular repair and tissue regeneration, this frequency can aid dogs recovering from injury or surgery by stimulating circulation and reducing inflammation.
432 Hz (Emotional Balance): Often called the frequency of harmony, 432 Hz helps soothe emotional distress, anxiety, and fear-based behaviors. It encourages a calm mental state and emotional resilience.
528 Hz (DNA Repair & Transformation): Known as the “love frequency,” 528 Hz is believed to promote deep healing and regeneration at the cellular level, supporting overall vitality and immune function.
639 Hz (Connection & Communication): This frequency encourages positive connection and social behavior, which can be helpful for dogs experiencing fear or reactivity issues.
Denise adds, “In sessions, I select frequencies based on what the dog needs most—whether it’s easing physical discomfort, calming nerves, or promoting energetic flow.”

Supports Emotional Calm and Stress Reduction
The calming tones can soothe anxiety and promote relaxation, making it useful for dogs with noise sensitivities or fear-based behaviors.
Enhances Energetic Balance
By targeting specific frequencies and applying tuning forks on acupressure points and meridians, energy blockages that may impact health can be cleared and balanced.
What to Expect During a Session
A tuning fork session is gentle and non-invasive. The practitioner strikes the fork to create vibrations and applies it near affected areas or energy points. Dogs often respond with relaxation or curiosity but remain fully aware.
Denise explains, “The vibrations gently influence the body’s energetic and physical systems without forcing movement or pressure.”
When to Use Tuning Fork Therapy
Tuning forks can be part of a holistic wellness plan for injury recovery, anxiety management, or general energy balancing.
Denise advises, “While not a standalone cure, tuning forks are a valuable tool alongside nutrition, bodywork, and mental enrichment.”
