The Practitioners
Kate Hart
Multi Grammy nominated, Kate began singing the Blues in 1968. In 1972 she recorded the single “Syncopated Love” for Stag Records. Hart headed West, eventually ending up in the Northwest where she would form the acclaimed all-star revue Seattle Women in 1985. By that time she was being acknowledged with a number of awards and in 1990 released her Grammy-nominated debut solo album, “Tonight I Want It All.” In 2000 she released the appropriately-titled “Queen of the Night” to positive reviews along with the double Grammy-nominated rock album “Lucy Mongrel” featuring her alter ego. Hart returned home to Detroit in 2002 where she once again, quickly established herself and convened the award-winning group Detroit Women, garnering 26 Detroit Music Awards along with her group and solo work being realized as two of the artists, who have most influenced the Detroit music/scene in the last 100 years.
Gretchen Weger Snell – Researcher and Practitioner
Since 1989, Gretchen Weger Snell, has been teaching clients how to build their health, energy and vitality using natural therapeutics. From infancy to elderly, at any level of illness or disease, homeopathy and natural medicines can improve and restore overall health. In her practice, she teaches, coaches and challenges her clients to take charge of their own internal healing power. From a homeopathic perspective, illness and disease represent an imbalance in the body’s vital force. Symptoms provide a road map to identify any impedance in the natural flow of energy. Whether on a physical, mental, emotional or spiritual level, the imbalance will always register in the electromagnetic, or bioenergetic field. Imbalances in the bioenergy can be detected and the effects monitored during treatment to observe the progression of healing. Because imbalances initiate in the energy field, many times potential problems can be detected and removed prior to developing more serious diseases.
Homeopathy, a proven system of medicine for over 200 years, is practiced widely throughout the world. It works by stimulating the body’s natural defenses rather than suppressing symptoms. Natural remedies are used which are non-toxic and do not cause side effects. Homeopathy’s foundation is built upon a complete system of laws, philosophy, theories and practice.

Combining Sound Healing with Tuning Forks
Sound is recognized as the most important form of vibrational energy. Sound is in constant motion and is made up of three important interconnecting elements Pulse, Wave, and Form. These elements form a trinity of action in order to create one powerful force.
Overview
Tuning forks are instruments used for sound healing therapy that produce specific sound frequencies in different parts of the body to release energy blocks. In a tuning fork session, the beneficial process of resonance occurs. If a frequency is applied by focusing the sound generated by tuning forks on various parts of the body, it can help to establish a new pattern of balance, erasing the detrimental patterns caused by the negative resonance pattern of ill health.
When combined with compatible music, the healing process is intensified.
