In 2012 I left my job, the university, everything I was doing\u2026 and began the path of the gong. When I founded the first gong school in Spain in January 2014, I never imagined I would end up publishing my work in an American scientific medical journal. But that’s not what matters most. What matters most is everything that has happened in the therapy room. Everything I’ve learned from the people who have come through my sessions. Some of them going through cancer, who are no longer here, like Silvia, Marta, Bel\u00e9n, or Esther. In a way, all of them are part of this study, which came to light on May 17, 2024, after five years of work.<\/p>\n

A Scientific Study on Gong Sound Therapy<\/h2>\n

This work, published in an international medical journal, examines the influence of receptive gong music therapy on women with breast cancer.<\/p>\n

This is not a theory or a belief. It is research based on scientific methodology.<\/p>\n

What Does This Really Mean?<\/h2>\n

This study does not claim that the gong cures cancer.<\/p>\n

But it does show something very important:<\/p>\n

Gong sound therapy can improve physical, emotional, and psychological well-being in women with breast cancer<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And in such a complex process, that is no small thing.<\/p>\n

The Role of the Gong as a Complementary Therapy<\/h2>\n

The study reinforces the idea that music therapy can be part of a comprehensive approach to health.<\/p>\n

It does not replace medical treatment, but it can support it, helping to:<\/p>\n
