Hear to Help, Hear to Heal, Hear to Sing - Study on Listening Improvements after Noise Trauma, Dis-ease, and some Drug Treatments, 

by Sigrid Countess von Galen




I am doing a lot of extensive research, writing and teaching on the impact of the ear on the voice, both in healthy conditions and in case of disease and trauma.

My work with professional singers, actors, musicians, performing artists and presenters but also with deaf but speaking people on their voice and movements has led me to many new insights and approaches. Some of the latter group were able even to move on far beyond normal performing arts or teaching careers, sharing with other deaf people, how to use their voice via the vibrations of the voice.

I am starting a new research project on listening improvements after trauma, disease or in cases of past noise trauma and after certain drug treatments with healthy volunteers and participants, who have been experiencing hearing loss and, thirdly, with both,users with cochlear implants and deaf clients without.

The study involves a series of S.A.M. Voiceworks free voice rebalancing sessions and filling in a questionnaire. It is a completely non-invasive approach.


The results will be published next year.

At the Centre for Trauma Studies and Healing we also offer very low cost voice, speech, movement, vibration, listening, arts and music therapy to those on low income.
