Voice Rebalancing Mini Lecture Series

By Sigrid Countess von Galen

Hearing Loss can have many causes: Next to infection and ear wax, which are easily diagnosed and treated by a GP, noise trauma and some drug treatments, over-stimulation or damage of the auditory nerve can also lead to loss of hearing.

The auditory nerve consists of a group of nerve cells called spiral ganglion neurons. These neurons rely on glial cells for their survival.

The glial cells make sure that the auditory nerve can function properly by removing harmful substances and by supplying essential nutrients.

The glial cell group communicates between its own cells and with the nerve cells. Conditions like chronic pain, migraine, some types of tinnitus and auditory neuropathy are caused by failures in this communication through trauma or disease.

Voice Rebalancing has an impact on the chemical balance and can help to lessen, prevent ot to aud recovery from trauma and variety of dis-eases. It can also help to refine the design of cochlear implants.

When the Ear can't connect and noise, silence or tinnitus take over, it's not just hard for a singer, actor, and bard but for any human being for that matter, hard to be over voice and sounds the Boss and specific signals or voices to detect! We all might know situations ourselves, where we are in a crowd and are surprised by a sudden voice standing out from behind, having approached without us noticing. There are numerous anecdotes and commercials drawing their humour or demonstration on this phenomenon.

There is also a hidden hearing loss in absence of any damage to the inner ear or wider auditory system. A considerable degree of hearing loss is often not even picked up by standard tests but which substantially affects how well someone can hear.

Noise exposure, often a big problem with singers and musicians but also with emergency services staff, and aging can lead to significant proportions of auditory nerve cells losing the connection to the sensory hair cells in the cochlea.

If these connections are lost, the nerve cells stop sending information to the brain. Hearing levels and thresholds might remain normal, as some connections are still present and pass on a selection of information. Loss of information from the damaged nerve cells makes it harder for the brain to ignore background noise.

We might know the effects of fire alarms, and in some darker context, noise trauma is also been used in torture.

The ability to ignore a noisy background and to detect a specific signal or voice is strongly diminished. Recent studies on mice on potential long-term effects of hearing damage have shown that if nerve cells are spontaneously active in the auditory part of the brain, this can indicate tinnitus.  

Voice Rebalancing is a non-invasive approach to stimulate communication between cells and nerves and rebalance the chemical responses in the body to regain a balance also between the muscles, posture, movements, the ear and the voice. Deep breathing is an important natural tool as are the vibrations of sound produced and felt in all parts of the body.
