Healing Bamboo Flutes
The healing properties of Bamboo flutes come from
the manifestation of a tone through
the breath creating a resonance which can bring a sense
of peace and calming. One does
not necessarily need to know how to "play" the flute
to receive the benefits of Healing.
Healing Flutes
Flutes of Bamboo need special care. Occasionally oil
the inside of the flute with a food oil or light mineral oil. I use walnut
oil to finish and oil our flutes to prevent the flute from too quickly
absorbing the moisture of playing, which can make it split. The flute can
also split if it is brought suddenly into the cold, or if the flute is
cold when you play it. Binding the flute will also help guard against splitting.
Inexpensive, decorative hand painted flutes in various
colors.
Painted with healing symbols these cane and bamboo flutes
are easy to play. Let the sound of the bamboo flute lead the mind directly
into spiritual thought. Hear the sound of the mountian lake or the autumn
breeze through the bamboo. Also great to use as Feng Shui cures in the
home or business.
Traditional Shakuhachi Bamboo Flutes
The Shakuhachi is a testament to the elegance of traditional
Japanese culture. Made from the root of the bamboo, its aesthetic is organic
and simple. This instrument produces a sound that is said to replicate
the full range of natural life on earth. By various fingerings and by controlling
the angle of the mouthpiece against the lip, all twelve tones of the western
chromatic scale can be produced. Traditional Japanese music played on this
instrument reflects the many voices of nature.
Blonde Bamboo Handmade Flutes
Gentle and warm as the summer rain, and gusty as the autumn
breeze, these bamboo flutes reflect the voices of nature.
Red Bamboo Flutes, with Healing Symbols

Alterations in emboucheure (mouthing), intensity of blowing
and cross fingerings allow the player to create a wide variety of subtle
and incredible sounds on these lovely flutes. The timbre of the instrument
is mellow in its low tones, although it is equally capable of producing
loud, penetrating and breathy tones. Made with both the Shakuhachi style
mouthpiece and the easier closed end.
