Biofield Tuning® Sound Therapy
Biofield Tuning® is a unique sound therapy method designed to deeply relax your nervous system and activate a natural healing response.
Founded by Eileen McKusick, Biofield Tuning® uses therapeutic sound to clear and strengthen your energy field, bringing your system into coherence for optimal wellness and potential.
During a session, Cate Ritter uses tuning forks to scan your biofield (energy field) and guide energy into harmony. This process can help release trauma, emotions, and subconscious programs, potentially addressing a range of mental, emotional, and physical concerns.
How Biofield Tuning® Sound Therapy Works
Watch this Tuning Overview video, where Eileen McKusick shares over two decades of experience with this powerful sound therapy approach to sound health and well-being. The pure tones and undertones of the tuning forks encourage your body to relax and "auto-tune," promoting deep relaxation within your body's nervous system. This process helps release old patterns and reduce stress, allowing energy to flow more freely. As a result, many individuals report feeling lighter, clearer, and more energized after their session, experiencing greater harmony in various areas of life.
Biofield Tuning® Practitioner
As a leader in wellness, Cate Ritter utilizes the power of sound therapy to support her client’s overall well-being. As a certified Biofield Tuning® Practitioner, Cate has found this sound-wave-based modality to be effective at addressing the root causes of both life and health challenges.
Healing is supported naturally by relaxing the nervous system, shifting limiting beliefs, releasing emotions, and creating energetic coherence
As stagnant energy is released, new energy flows, strengthening your electric health. This process can aid in restoring self-worth and create stronger connections with yourself and others.

Tune Yourself to Health
Biofield Tuning offers a transformative approach to healing based on two principles: (1) everything is electric—including you—and (2) everything is connected. Using tuning forks as high quality sound therapy tools can help clear low energy and strengthen your health.
Emotions carry vibrational patterns and rhythms, and sound therapy can help release emotions, trauma, stress, and pain. By addressing the root of issues, sound therapy promotes wellness on all levels—physical, mental, emotional, and energetic.
Tuning forks calm the nervous system, addressing the often-overlooked chronic stress response. By working with the human body’s subtle energy field, Tuning helps restore balance and activate a healing response, potentially supporting a variety of issues. This process harmonizes your energy and helps you build resilience.
What to Expect from Sound Therapy
This sound therapy process is like putting a needle on your akashic record and listening. Whether in-person or remote, the format is similar and equally effective. First, we activate your central energy channel to align your energy with the present. We begin at the outer edge, at birth (and before), and move towards your physical body to your current age.
As we find incoherent areas, we allow the frequency to entrain and synchronize. Using a click-drag-and-drop method, the fork restores energetic flow and as your body releases stress it creates space to auto-tunes itself into coherence.
This energetic symphony relaxes your nervous system, allowing you to release trauma, suppressed emotions, subconscious beliefs, and more. As your electric current flows freely and smoothly, you feel lighter and more relaxed.
